AS FLOWS THE TIDE
Just as sure as the tide ebbs and flows and the sun
comes up to flood Resurrection Bay with a surge of
celestial fire; just as sure as the winds come rampaging
in from down the long southward stretch and the
swells from the distant ocean finally. break against
Seward’s defenseless beach, so sure will Seward ever
he known as the Port of Scraped Bottoms. In other
words, Seward will never be a haven for small craft
until a breakwater is provided for the inner harbor.
For the big ships Resurrection Bay is all that could
be desired. No safer, more beautiful harbor exists in
the world. But for the smaller craft that make up the
bulk of Seward’s shipping the hand of man must be
turned to assist Nature if Seward is to hold her right
ful place as the shipping center of all Southwestward
and Westward Alaska.
From the standpoint of business a safe inner an
chorage for motorships and launches with runways for
beaching would be a big asset for the city. The machine
shops are available for repairs of major importance,
a need that is keenly felt by all the big; fleet of fishing
boats that come up from the Panhandle to spend the
summer in these and Westward waters. When one stops
to realize that in all this vast expanse of rugged coast
and turbulent waters there is no good place to properly
repair small craft or the means of so doing, one gets a
faint notion of the supreme importance, the supreme
need of furnishing such a place.
We thought we had it. The government engineers
voted on it and the appropriation was to come soon.
Like a dirty duece it seemed to have got lost in the
shuffle.
Is there no way of resurrecting it for the good of
Resurrection Bay?
Various government officials have stated they
will endeavor to lend their personal efforts at Washing
ton this winter to secure the necessary appropriation.
But in the meantime there should be no letup local
ly. The time to sit hack and rest is when the job is an
accomplished fact.
Now that Russia and China have failed to palm off
a “pork and bean” event for a championship classic,
they might as well refund the gate receipts and return
to chop suey and caviar.
Jacob Michael of New York has the power of putt
ing himself into a deep sleep at will. What an armor
against high-pressure salesmen!
Dr. Cunliffe of Columbia University wants the pub
lication of crime news restricted by law. It would also
be fine if crime could be restricted by law.
Sourdough Bill rises up to remark that if Lady Go
diva’s ride were reenacted today many would take a
peep to see what a horse looks like.
