ALASKA ROADS AS
 AGENCIES 0F PROGRESS


 Colonel Richardson voiced self evident truth when he said that "the Northern Territory could not be de- yeloped without additional roads and trails"
 Roads are agencies Of progress. They are ciyilizers When they pre-. cede tho pioneer, they speed his en- try into g new country When they follow him. they speed the movement of his products to the outside world.
 There should be no conflict between the Alaska road building program and the Alaska railroad building program. Each is important in Ito relation to the other--but both arc, necessary
 Even the suggestion that there might be 9 clash between these two propositions is regretable Moreover it ls difficult to see where any sane person could ilnd Q reason for ancri- ficing one to promote the other
 Alaska needs additional roads and trails. It needs an it can set. It needs more thnn it ever can expect 10 get as a result of Congressional ap- proDriation. Such facilities will be provided only in jun measure by the settling up of the country.

 Provide the railroad facilities that Che administration seems to contem- plate. however. and the movement in- to the country win at once assume important proportions. Mauy of those at work on the lines will remain and many more win come rom the Unit. ed States Canado and Europe to take up land
