 The United States Geological Survey is dispatching twelve parties to Alaska to continue the systematic surveys and investigations that have been in prog ress for the last eighteen years. Of these parties three will be sent to Southeastern Alaska, one into the up- per Chitiua region, one to Port Valdez; two will work in the Turnagain Arm Knik region; one will make investiga- tions in the Yukon Tanana region, and two in the Ruby Kuskokwim region, and another will r4saverse the little known area lying between the Ruby district aud the Tanaha river. One party will be engaged in general inves- tigations in different parts of the ter ritory. Much of the Copper River reg zion has been surveyed fin previous years. There still remains, however, the upper Chitina basin, where no geo. logic work has been done. This work will be undertaken by F. H. Mof1t, as- sisted by R. M. Overbeck.
