Commissioner Sawyer Tells What Strong Right
Arm of Uncle Sam Should Do In Rich Alaska
sY e. o. SAWYER.

SEATTLE. Wash, Dec. Back to
the land Of taxicabs after Is days OF
mushing In Alaska.
What about the coal?" I'D
What about the Guggenheimsy
What about the railroads.
What are my general conclusions
about Uncle Sans great northern em-
pire. Alaska, In short--now that 1
view II from a perspective?"
First and foremost I have convic-
lions In regard to sea transportation.
Il think Uncle Sam should establish at
once his own line of steamships TO
Alaska or do some REAL freight-rate
regulation. Since the only way to get
to Alaska from these United States is
by sea, more light houses. buoys ana
beacons are needed to safeguard the
way for the citizens OF our country.
Secondly. regarding the coal fields
The deposits In the Matanuska field
are the largest In Alaska and tests
show the coal TO be suitable for the
navy.
Therefore, a United States mine
should be opened here at once from
which to secure fuel for our Pacific
fleets. Coal seams encountered In this
mine which are not up TO navy speci-
, fications. but which are superior 10
coal NOW SOLD ON THE COAST,
should be mined and the coal sold 10
THE PEOPLE at disbursing stations
located on the public docks at all Pa
cific coast and Alaska coast points at
Ia reasonable price.
To insure the development OF the
Behring river fields a mine should be
opened here from which coal can be
shipped to all army posts. government
buildings and army transports Coal.
mined In excess of the amount needed
should be sold to the people through
