many hills & curves it is one of the
most dangerous on the Trail. During
this gag famine little thot seems to
be being taken for the preservance of
human lives.lt is not safe for even
poderately speeding trucks & cars go
ing m different directions on blind
curves,go it should certanly not be
saf^ for these heavy trucks speeding
over thg road night & day. it should
be taken into cosideration jshat hum
an lives are much more valuble than
all the gasoline produced in theworld
together. VTe could live without gaso
we must have life or the wo
rld would be dead. Life was meant to
be had,and it shall be had.It certan
ly seems probable that for the time
during the tie—up it should be made
'VWAY “ TRAIL! In Mt Rnnier Nn
t 1 Park for many years it was a ore
way trail to the camp of the Clouds,
& our Fairbanks Trail could eisily be
made so also.There are good stopping
places at both ends & the middle wher
they can puli up at these scheduled
spots to keep on the time arrangment
which the Govt, might make thru the
Road Com*. These *time Passings* have
to be stuck to in EVERY CASE or the
danger would not b£ stopped,as people
would only think it was stopped to be
m greater danger than ever.Checking
out each motor is done‘in many places
in the States even now.Why not here?
The way things are now it will certan
ly be Just luck & God^s'mercy if theri
isn t some $ad accident,maybe the loss
of life,of some of our friends & work
ers, during the next few weeks .We are
looking to you men of authority to do
something about this. Here ’is the nee
dy thing,& no time to lose. Even a
fool fool can see how dangerous this
freighting is on this special trail,
but none of us want to be super-fools
by Hot doing anything about what we
all know. SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE,it
ijiust be done or before the tie-up is 4
over someone will BE IN MOURNING* Edi,
