GALEN REPORTS
BIG INCREASE
OVER HIGHWAY
. AT LEAST 500 TOURISTS ARE
EXPECTED TO MAKE THE RICH
ARDSON HIGHWAY TRIP THIS
SUMMER.
Tourist travel over the Richard
son Highway this season will show
an increase of at least forty per cent
according to Janies S. Galen, presi
dent of the Richardson Highway
Transportation company, who arrived
in Seward Friday night on the steam
er Yukon from Cordova, his head
quarters. In round numbers it is ex
pected 500 people will traverse the
highway this summer. The traffic
actually begins June 12, the approxi
mate official opening date of the
beautiful Alaska scenic highway.
The Criswell Travel Service of
Los Angeles are advertising four
tours to Alaska for the season. One
of these will be up the river from
the Railroad, and the other three
to this district and over the Golden
Loop route—The Alaska Railroad- i
Richardson Highway. The first tour j
is completely sold out at this writ
ing, Mr. Galen said yesterday, with
the other two parties yet to be fill
ed up. Each of these tours will
comprise about 40 people.
The Crabtree Travel Service com
| pany of Oakland, is working on three
Alaska tours. One of these is sold
J out and the other two are still open
for reservations. These parties will
! consist of from 25 to 30 tourists.
The Peck-Judah Tours, will no
doubt bring two parties to the Ter
j ritory this summer. One party of
25 is now practically sold out. This
company has agencies in both Los
Angeles and San Francisco.
The American Express company of
New York, is advertising for five
tours to Alaska this summer, each
party to be about 30 strong.
In addition to these there have
i been innumerable other individual
j reservations made. To take care of
j the increase in business this season,
j Mr. Galen’s company has purchased
j five additional Studebacher passen
I ger autos, brings the total number
■ of autos to be used on the highway
by his company this season, up to
16 cars. The trip, either way, is
made in three and one-half days by
the autos. Every driver is an expe
rienced mechanic and is perfectly
familiar with every point of interest
along the route, both in scenic and
golden lore, adding greatly to the
pleasure of those making the trip for
the first time.

yesterday for Anchorage where he
will board today’s thru train for Fair
banks, the Interior terminus of the
company. He will return to his head
quarters over the highway. During
