Chamber Briefed
On Comprehensive
Highway Study
Roads
At the Chamber of Commerce
meeting on Monday the chairman
of Civic Affairs, Maurice Kelliher,
presented a comprehensive study
on the Pan American Highway, as
opening study for the renewal of
Nome’s untiring efforts to have
this city connected by road to the
rest of North America.
He called attention to a report
in a late magazine which told of
$170,000,000 of American money
being spent to put roads into
countries south of Mexico and an
other $132,000,000 pledged to pave
and blacktop these roads in that
part of the country which does not
belong to the USA. At the pre
sent time there is a movement to
have a Pan American Highway
8,000 miles long that passes thru
Phoenix, Las Vegas, Reno, Kla
math Falls, and Yakima. Then it
crosses the Canadian frontier at
Osoyoos, B.C., and connects at
White Horse and ends at Fair
banks. While the campaign is on
pressure must be added to spend
some American dollars to take the
road to the coast of Alaska, ter
minating at the Bering Sea.
Reindeer
Sen. Pearse Walsh cautioned
at the meting that the Chamber
must keep alert to the reindeer
study being made, as Nome is the
natural center of the reindeer in
dustry and freezing and canning
plants should result in this area
when the report is completed.
Tourists
An interesting development in
tourist potential is reported by
Sen. Walsh, who states that Ed
Shephard, who is financing a fur
factory at Gambell on St. Law
rence Island, is also setting up
good quarters for 60 people to be
housed. It is expected that walrus
hunters will be among the most
interested tourists to take advan
tage of this improvement as walrus
hunting is fast becoming a more
and more popular big game hunt
ers sport and Gambell is a logical
place for it as thousands of the
animals are in the vicinity of the
island in the spring. At the pre
sent time several hunters are on
the island, Walsh reported, in
cluding the owner of the Piper
Aircraft Co.
