(The Alaska WeeklYl

For the last month engineers have been in Seattle and other points on Puge5 sound and in British Columbia getting necessary data ,sent here by the big Eastern interests that will fi- nance the proposed pulp and paper making industry at Seward, Alaska.
 Frank l.. Ballaine, yromoter of the big proposition, declines to discuss the matter, taking the position that any information on the subject must come from those who are financing the in- dustry. As far as he would go was to say that everything is coming along all right"
 The choice of the Resurrection bay town as the site for a pulp mill and paper making plant recalls to mind an opinion expressed by big East ern Canada pulp and paper manufac- turer many years ago. The writer of this article was at the time editor of the Seward Gateway. The paper manufacturer was financially concern ed in the old Alaska Central Railway and made trip to Seward and into the Matanuska valley to see the coal fields. Upon his return to Seward from the trip, he was interviewed, and said, in part:
 If l were younger man, I would locate in Seward and establish a pulp and paper making plant. That's your big resource here, as I see it. There is an abundance of spruce on the pen- insula and cottonwoods grow in pro- fusion in the Matanuska and Susitna valleys. The great Kenai Lake and river will provide adequate water power facilities. We have nothing like 1t in my country.

There are thirty large breed ing pens and thirty small ones, and all the necessary buildings and para phernalia required on a fox farm.

 The party will stop overnight at Curry, which will give them an oppor- terest at that place. They will stop for two days in Fairbanks where they will be royalty entertained by the cit izens, who are now preparing for their coming.
