BIG NEED IS
 ROADS, SAYS RICHARDSON

WASHINGTON, D. C.. Feb 1.-- The real need of Alaska is roads, is the declaration of Col w. P. Rich ardson, of the United States amy and president of the Alaska road commission, before the house com mittee on military affairs recently Without roads there can be nC ade.- cuate development of this great. rich American territory and development is badly needed. Every one knows of Alaskas riches, Col. Richardson said, but to get at these riches for the benefit of the people of the Uni ted States roads must be built to them.
 "They have unloaded this :ob of road building on me-" said the Col onel, referring to his presidency of the Alaska road commission, "and can't do it without money" He, therefore, asked the military affairs committee to report an appropriation of $50O,O0O for good roads in Alaska That was the amount appropriated by congress last year. Col. Richardson urged the necessity of knowing OH what he can depend each year SD bat his commission can go ahead Oil comprehensive plan of road building instead of having to do it piecemeal as had to be done before. Notwith- standing that fact, he pointed out the 40 miles of the Valdez-Fair- banks road, the longest road in Alas ka, which, he said, automobiles can traverse the entire distance in the summer time.
 Col. Richardson spoke of light snow.
 What do you cali light snow up in that country?" asked Representa- tive McKellar of Tennessee. "Oh, about seven feet" replied the Colonel, who spends most of his time in the frozen territory.
 "Then what would you cali a real heavy snow?" asked Mir. Mcclellan. as the committee laughed.
 Well, in the interior we some times have from 15 to 20 feet and on the coast sometimes as high as 70 feet during the winter"
 "The roads now under c,Estruc- tion leads to the mining district" :" said Col. Richardson. "The uost lm- rortant thing to do is to build more wagon roads and trails. Every man in Alaska will tell the committee the same thing. We have over 10000 white people ur there. We are pay k ing day laborers from $2.5O to $5 a cay and we are making great inn Iprovements, if Congress will only go ahead as we did last year. Without good roads the $35,00O.O0O which Congress appropriated for a railroad in Alaska would not develop any thing"
 Colonel Richardson asked the coni- mittee for $300,000 for the mammoth bridge over the Gastineau channel. connecting Juneau with Douglas isl- and, with $100,0O0 immediately available and authority to proceed with the work. and the remaining $200,0OO at the next session.
