Wickersham as saying- it- is ven
doubtful if anything will be don<
this summer in the Cold Bay dis
trict beyond preparing for activity
next year. It is possible, the judgi
says, that machinery for drillinj
will be landed this year by one. ar,(
possibly, two companies, but activi
operations are not likely to be car
ried on before next year, the climat
ic conditions not being favorabl
for winter work.
Judge Wickersham had intendei
visiting the Cold Bay region on hi
way back to Juneau from the In
terior. but he went only as far a
Kodiak, where he met several re
presentatives of the concerns tha
contemplate operations in the oi
field. They were all confident tha
Cold Bay will prove to be a pro
ducer eventually.
