IN JUNEAU TO STUDY REINDEER
INDUSTRY AND REPORT ON
ANDREWS’ CHARGES
To investigate charges affecting
the ownership of reindeer herds in
the Seward Peninsula area, grazing
lends, etc., and study conditions
generally in the Territory, Ernest
.Taker Sawyer, special assistant to
t--e Secretary of Interior and spec
1.1 representative of the Alaska
wanroad, is at Juneau, reports the
Umpire. He is accompanied by
Mrs. Sawyer and their son. Richard.
Mr. Sawyer is extremely enthus- !
. he over the proposed Pacific Yu
kon Highway, and sees in its con
summation an era of great develop- ■
-TAent for northern British Colum
bia. Yukon Territory and Alaska.
He predicted that some steps look
ing toward a beginning of the route
thru British Columbia north of
Hazelton, would be taken this sum
mer.
ALL PARTIES UNITED
When the project was first ad
vanced in British Columbia only
Dr. Tolmie and his conservative
followers were committed to it.
More recently, following the' cara
van expedition from Vancouver to
Hazelton. many of the leading lib
erals of the province have openly
advocated the project and are ac
tively supporting it.
The province of British Columbia
will make an aerial survey of the
route between Hazelton and the
Yukon Territory boundary this
summer. Mr. Sawyer said. Planes
will map the district for the best
possible routes to be followed by the
road. ^ |
A similar survey, he added, will
be made of Yukon Territory by the i
dominion government. It is ex
pected these will be completed this
season.
OPEN RICH COUNTRY
The road would throw open to
development and settlement the ;
rich mining areas of the Stikine
and Taku rivers and tributary |
regions. The development of these
districts, he said, would bring a ]
revenue to the province that would
more than defray all of the costs
to it of building the highway. j
In addition, the opening of the

tourists into and thru British Col

GOES TO ATLIN
i Mr. Sawyer, with Mrs. Sawyer

Alameda for Skagway, enroute to
Atlin and Dawson. He hopes to be
able to make connections with a
down-river steamer at the latter
point and go to Nenana, arriving
before the end of the month. Mrs.
Sawyer will visit in Fairbanks and
later Anchorage, returning to
Washington by September 1.
The length of Mr. Sawyer’s stay
is indefinite. He will fly from
Fairbanks to Nome, Kotzebue and
other Seward Peninsula points, and ]
later Ak<ak and Kanakanak on J

will investigate the charges of ir
regularities in the Lomen reindeer

of lode mines.
HOPES FOR COAL TONNAGE
He also wants to study the coal j
mining industry of the Matanuska :
valley region. He is confident that
there is an export market at Los
Angeles for several hundred thous
ands of tons of coal each year, and
desires to investigate the possibili
ty of producing it from the mines
n that section.
