transportation, much of which he said
 was justified. but a great deal of
 which has been without foundation
 and purely imaginary. Passenger
 fares on the steamship lines plying Alaska waters are as reasonable as American-Pacific coastwise steam ship rates" he said. Freight rates,"
 he added, "are high but at the same time we must remember that Alaska in its present stage provides full ca
 pacity business for certain number
 of months during the rush season of lthe summer, while the boats travel
 the same distance in the winter-time
 with only a few passengers and a
 minimum amount of freight. It takes
 the profits made during the summer
 months to make up for the heavy losses sustained during the months that the steamship company makes the runs, at times, with less than a
 dozen passengers and very little freight.
 Alaska must have cheaper freight transportation, both rail and water: | especially rates cri ores. both rail
 and waer, from Alaska to Ameri- can smeltcr ports, and from Ameri- can ports to Alaska on all materials Ithat could be termed as necessary commodities for prospeetors, farm CTS and those engaged in mining numbering and agricultural develop ment. Even if it is necessary to lose money for q year or two. tlf transportation companies would be much further ahead during a period
 of 10 years Tourists, he said, visiting the
 Territory will find better aeeommoda tions, water, ral and hotel service
 on an Alaska trip from Seattle to
 Fairbanks and rcturn, than they do on many of their vacation trips in the States. There are no 'hardships' in seeing Alaska not bit more
 than in seeing" the Yosemite. Ye lowstone or Glacier National Parks" He said there is mo excuse for the present freight rates" over the Cop
 per River x Northwestern Railroad adding: 'It is quite true 1t cost a tremendous amount of money to build
 this road, and it is good road, well
 built, well maintained. and efficient
 ly officered. 1t may be true, and lln. doubtedly is true. that. even with the
 present rates, the road does not pay more than q reasonable interest on tts investment, and I believe there
 were several years in which no in terest was paid at all; in fact, de- ficit." He contends, however. that Ia lower rate, though it entailed
 heavy loss for a year or two, would
 so materially increase tonnage and
 stimulate mineral development that
 in fiye-year period the road would
 be a permanent success from a stand
 point of business and profits.
 Mention is made of Alaskan oil development, particular reference be- ing made to Cold Bay and Katalla.

Could Be Efficient

Ca and yet the interdepart- mental board could be reconstructed so as not only to be highly effective, but to engender confidence and elim- mate red tape. To do so it will be necessary to eliminate the commit tee that holds forth in Washington, reorganize and grant to the interde- partmental board in Alaska executive power over Federal affairs in the Territory. For instance, the Presi- dent could by executive order es- tablish an interdepartmental board composed of an official representing each department in Alaska, to have full charge of the affairs coming un- der his jurisdiction without continu- olfs reference and redtape core spondence with Washington. There would be an advantage in this kind of a board, which would be practic- ally the same as an assistant secre- tarial board with the exception that the appointees on an interdepartmen- tai board would come under the Civil Service which would mean that these highly efficient men would not be removed because of an adverse presi- dential election. The tenure of office of these officials would depend en- tirely upon their ability; incompct- ency or maladministration of office would be the sole cause for removal. It would be necessary that they com pose a board that would meet often to straighten out overlapping ques- tions and ito expedite development by meeting across a table and set tling affairs On the ground that now takes 5000 miles of corresp pondence. D
 This kind of a board, he added, could be established at once and be- gin fnnctioning, it being necessary only for the President to sign proper executive orders for it's creation. On the other hand. Congressional sane ton would be necessary to create the secrctarlal board, or Alaska "cab- inet" recommended at the outset.
 Red Tape Eliminated
 Much of the reluctance of capi- tai to engage in undertakings in the Territory, he said, "is based on a purely psychological fear. Most of their suspicious arc groundless. want to repeat that most of the red tape has been removed from Alas kan management. And I do not be. aieve that there is any substantial reason for investors to fear govern mental restrictions, which in most cases are purely mythical
