WHAT'S THE MATTER
 WITH ALASKA?
Ellsworth Sumner in Railway and Marine News

on every trip. Southbound the cargo tonnage available is that made up of copper ore and fish. The Alaska Packers of San Francisco, Libby Nc. Neil & Libby, Northwestern Fish cries and Pacific American Fisheries, have already made arrangements for the season, but it should not be over- Alaska has had whalers, confishing has it's own fleet either of steamers or sailing vessels and they need but limited amount of space ou the regular line steamships As to cop per, the producing mines have their own transportation arrangements and so this proposed additional steam ship line to be operated by the gov would give San Francisco and Port land a share of Seattle's Alaska trade to the extent of from $1O,OOO,O0O to $13,O00,000 per season; would merely give an illustration of breaking into the trade during the summer season with possibly northbound merchan- disc shipments of tonnage sufficient to destroy the service of the exist ing regular liners to such an ex- tent that they would curtail their service and retire from portions of southeastern Alaska and with such curtailment would come a decrease iH the vast amount of supplies each ship would purchase at Seattle.
 Then these government ships ar irving in Alaska would turn around and come back light. There is no cargo for them southbound because it is already contracted for. There fore. the natural result would be the most stupendous failure imaginable marked up against government own ership and yet those who are backing the insane project have been steadily warned of this situation.
 There is nothing wrong with Alas xa's transportation service except with the lack of people who travel and lack of goods to transport. This brings us to the suggestion that If Alfred G. Brooks, of the United States geological survy would de- vote all of his time and that of his 1 many assistants in discovering a new surface mine of a bonanza class 1t
 would do more to solve the Alaska problem than any one thing. In place of dealing with the trausporta- tion subject of which he knows less than nothing, being a geologist, why
 would it not be better for Mr Brooks
 to forever insure his name being
 placed in Alaska's hall of fame by
 discovering a famous surface mine
 which would become a producer, not
 only for the government railroad but
 for the government ships. In such
 an event it matters not who hauls
 the ore. But let that thought sink
 in deeply, what Alaska needs more
 than anything else is the uncovering
 of new surface ore body which will
 produce tonnage for many years to
 come.
 A new bonanza would solve Inc ! difficulty.
The Cordova daily times., 1921-02-25

Hearing from Washington that Sec retary Payne of the interior depart. ment has suggested that the Alaska shipping plan might be incorporated in the proposed Curry bill, it is well to lay aside other prepared chapters in this series of articles and deal for the moment very briefly with the shipping situation.
 The writer has been intimately as sociated with Alaska and it's affairs and has extensively travelled in the territory for the past decade and longer and never once during that time has he ever heard here in Seattle or in the north any .sugges- tion made covering improvements of conditions, without some person in- terjecting remark about the lack of steamships or the need of steamship service. Right now the statement will be made without fear of contra diction that Alaska has always had ample steamship service and the very last thing that it needs at the pres ent time is any additional service If you figure on merchant receiv- ing letter in a 5,000-ton steamship on a service equal to the trolley mail out of Cleveland then the Alaska service is entirely inadequate, but if we have straight tabulation of the number of tons going north and coming south as to ship tonnage and this total shall be compared to the actual cargo tons shipped north and shipped south, we find that at no time during the twenty years past has the cargo tonnage been 50 per cent of the ship tonnage. Again, never in twenty years has there been steamship or any other class of vessel in the Alaska trade making a round trip with it's cargo space and passenger accommodation fully occupied.
 There was a time when the Seattle Hardware Company, through some of it's officials, became interested in a steamship line to Alaska For sev- eral years it tried to exist and at last the service was cancelled and the ships withdrawn. For something like ten years the steamship Humboldt practically controlled the Treadwell and Douglas shipments. It Is said that that company probably made more satisfactory net earnings than any other, but it could not live for a moment following the Treadwell disaster and it. too, was withdrawn. looked that each of those companies vessels, schooners, both sailing and steam, barges, steamship lines, tugs, | lighters and launches, and sooner or later with the curtailment of the par. tiCular industry served, those ves- sels have moved away to other fields of endeavor.
 For the next two months, owing to the decreased offering in northbound freight will be most pronounced, yet
 the two pioneer companies will re, main in the field moving with partial
 cargoes and possibly losing money
