Concentrated Effort Made
 70 PreUent CurtaiLn,ent Of
 Alaska Road Appropriation A

ANCHORAGE, Jan. 17.-En route to the interior, where he will inspect road work completed during the sum- mer, and where he will study winter conditions with view to aiding in the carrying out of the governments program of road building, Major J. c. 1 Gotwals, first assistant to Colonel Steese, head of the Alaska road con- mission, arrived in Anchorage and de- parted on the northbound train the next day.
 Major Gotwals has just returned from Washington, where, with Col onel Steese, he has been bringing every influence to bear to prevent a curtailment of the territorial road building program, which calls for ap. proximately $1,000,O00 AS the item now stands total of s955,000 is in- cluded in the estimates for this year, and provided there Is no pairing down of the asked for appropriation, this sum will be expended in the territory during the next year. In addition Colonel Steese has asked for an an- nual road appropriation of $1,O00,OOO from the federal government to be expended in Alaska for ten years.
 Colonel Steese is now in Washing ton nursing the appropriation with the hope of preventing it's curtailment, and for fear of the latter being done various commercial bodies throughout southeastern Alaska have memorial ized senators and members of con- gress, asking that Colonel Steese's recommendations be accepted in toto.
 CONGRESS WILL SOON DECIDE
 But few days remain in which the fate of the appropriation will be de- cided, and steps are being taken in Anchorage to have the chamber of commerce as we'll as all citizens hay ing the acquaintance of senator or representative wire them, asking that the full appropriation be granted.
 The effect of road building in south western Alaska is already manifesting itself. Peter Monaghan, who is oper- ating on Valdez creek, and who will begin his summers operations as soon as weather conditions will permit, has taken in several thousand dollars worth of supplies and will put ten

 fore have gone via the Copper River railroad, entailing heavy expense. Through the little work that has
 been done this season, together with
 rail transportation nearer the dig gings, Monaghan says his freight costs have been cut about one-half and in due course of time this rich region will be available for big outfits and many men.
 Among the questions considered by Major Gotwals during his few hours dual-season trail into Valdez creek, stay here was the building of a one that will serve winter and sum- mer He was in consultation with parties operating on the creek, and tentative plan was accepted, to the mutual satisfaction of all concerned.
 SUPPLYING ALL NEEDS
 In considering roadways and trails 1t is the policy of Major Gotwals to meet the needs of operators and SUD- ply avenues that will best serve win. ter and summer. As regards the Cache creek road it is his intention to have a good winter road, permit ting the haulage of heavy machinery and supplies and facilities for travel ing over it light in summer.
 Unlike many former directors of road buildings in the territory, Major Gotwals "is from Missouri; he insists upon seeing conditions as they are in all seasons. It is for this reason that he is making his present journey, which will take him to Ruby, on the Yukon, then to Ophir, Tacotna, Mo- Grath and NiXon's Fork, the latter place being the scene of the Tread we'll, Hunker Hill and Sullivan and the Alaska Mexican Companies oper- ations which are believed to contem- plate an extensive program of devel- opment in the near future. Major Got walls will then travel along Nixon's Fork negotiate Rainy pass and re- turn via Wasilla, the entire trip con- suming sixty days.
 Speaking of his journey Major Got walls said: q am, desirous of obtain ing first-hand knowledge of snow and weather conditions throughout the re- zion in which we are building roads and are contemplating building them. Our program is large one and if | carried out will result in a network of roads and trails that will open the country to the prospector and operator"
 By promising the war department to return the tractors in the event of war, Major Gotwals succeeded in | working" the department for eleven l big Holt caterpillar tractors such as the Alaskan Engineering commission is now using. The first of these trac- tors will come into the territory in February and they will be distributed !! throughout the area in which roads | are being built.
 ANOTHER HARD TRIP PLANNED
 On his return to Anchorage Major Gotwals will immediately set out on another trip that will test his mettle 1 as a musher and sourdough He will l go to Eagle and from there swing | across and into Valdez creek, to make l a reconnaissance of the territory to the northeast of this rich region. He expects to reach Valdez creek and make his way out via Broad pass.
 Since becoming connected with road work in Alaska Major Gotwals has travelled almost all over the terri tory, rain or shine, snow or blizzard, and is one of the best-informed men on the resources and needs of the territory.
