THE CALIFORNIA COAL MARKET
Attention is called to the Alaska visit of Malcolm
M. Galbreath, mining and structural engineer, of Pasa
dena who has been detained by the State of California
to make an exhaustive study of coal in various sections
with a view of benefiting California industries. The pre
sent Alaska trip is in the nature of a reconnaissance;,
he expects to remain in Alaska about two months. It isj
said that should Alaska coal prove suitable for the pur
poses required by California manufacturers a market
of several thousand tons a day would be provided.
Talking about Alaska coal is one of our favorite sub
jects. We know that politics cannot forever keep Alas
ka coal out of the States marts—Utah, for instance. We
have the product; millions of tons of all kinds. And
analysis have revealed the coal is on a par with any
other. But we’ve got politics, too, which has thus far
blocked every move to export coal to the States.
We hope the influence of the salons in the State of
California is stronger that that of Utah. If it is, Alas
ka coal will begin trickling thru. Alaskans welcome Mr.
Galbreath and stand ready to cooperate with him or
his associates, at a moment’s notice. It is time Alaska’s
tremendous coal resources were placed at the disposal
of the American public.
