SUPPLY PARTY
! ON ROAD AGAIN;
DANGEROUS SPOT
I
i -
NENANA, Alaska, Feb. 17.
The Wilkins’ supply party started
again this morning over that portion
of the trail between Minto and Camp
bells Roadhouse, which is considered i
dangerous, owing to the swift current j
j which undercuts the ice.
Ben Eileson passed thru Nenana to
day and said the plans for freighting ■
in the supplies by airplane from Fair
banks to Point Barrow, will be com
pleted by the time Capt. Wilkins ar
rives next week with the airplanes.
The Tanana river here offers an ex
cellent landing field, Lieutenant C. B.
Eileson remarked after a thorough
survey. He intimated the Wilkins’
party may assemble their planes here
and hop off from this point for Bar
row.
The weather is clear with the tem
perature registering 18 below zero this
morning.
(NOTE—While in Seward last week
Lieut. Eileson stated the Fairbanks
field might prove too small to take off
from, and for that reason only the
party may decide to take off from the
Tanana river at Nenana, at which |
point a clear and unobstructed lengthy
take-off is afforded. The planes are
huge and with their loads need ample
room to gain proper momentum to
rise.—Ed).
Eastern Tourist Agency

this itinerary may be changed and
the parties enter Alaska thru this port
and come out at Skagway.

Looking Ahead!
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northfland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm faith
in the Territory's possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with
Alaskan progress can accomplish much. Looking ahead to still
greater things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one
way that a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pains,
takingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and, that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”
