MANY ITEMS FOR BETTERMENT
OF THIS AREA ARE DISCUSS
ED AT MEETING
Preliminary plans to launch vi
gorous campaigns to induce govern
mental and Territorial depart
ments to complete the severa
major projects of local importance
now pending, were made by busi
ness men of Seward when the loca
chamber of commerce met at it*
regular weekly luncheon Tuesday
Naming as the momentous fac
ers that would contribute to the
progress of the vicinity, the m'-ssing
>nk between Moose Pass and the
-• ward-Kenai highway: the Shel
r harbor in Resurrection Bay foi
small craft; the lighthouse on Rug
red Island; coal Sbunkers and a
marine hospital.
Measuies to start the ball rolling
in the direction of ac Turing these
needs were offered by Elwyn Swet

derston, Capt. O. A. Johansen, Leor
Urbach, Wayne Blue. Carl Orlan

ent.
In the matter of road construc
tion the contemplated route thru
Resurrection valley, a highway ol
about 40 miles that would join the
present Cooper’s Landing, Kena:
road at Schooner Bend, was re
garded as secondary in importance
to the link needed to connect up
the Moose Pass and Seward roads
which would render the Kenai
Hope and Moose Pass regions ac
cessible to Seward, and encourage
settlers, .homesteaders, ranchers
miners and prospectors to these
regions, and would mean less than
15 miles of road building as agains4
about 40 miles in the Resurrection
In addition to the suggestions
made to renew the intensive drive
towards securing 'the passage oi
the rivers and harbors aporopria
tion in which the desired break
water is included, it was announc
ed. by the recent visit of S. Ber
tram. Wall Street banker anc
prominent in diplomatic affairs
that he favors its construction and
has expressed a willingness to in
tercede for the appropriation.
It is known that several new
lighthouses are to be erected at
