LIKE MEETING AN OLD FRIEND
Steward Gateway

Steward Gateway
 T am enthusiastic about Alaska and want to be regarded as an AL askan as long as am to remain in the Territory by the War De- partment" remarked Major Nal colm Elliott, Engineer Corps. U. S. A.. President of the Board of Road Commissioners, at Juneau last week.
 Today Major Elliott is in Seward enroute to the Interior on brief inspection of areas under his sup ervision. and Seward citizens have had the pleasure of clasping his hand. making his acquaintance: and they like him.
 Seward and this district have long held warm spot in their af- factions for the War Department. So the welcoming of Major Elliott is similar to meeting an old friend.
 His visit being totally unexpected the proper reception which would have greeted him must more or less be passed over; however. Presi- dent Urbach of the Seward Chamber Of Commerce. has made plans for a dinner reception this evening at 5 o'clock at the Seward Grill in honor of Major Elliott. Every business man in the city should be present as we'll as the public in general.
 Major Douglas H. Gillette, Acting President of the Board since the retirement Of Colonel James G. Steese. who is accompanying Major Elliott. as we'll as other prominent out-of-town visitors will be dinner guests.
 Major Elliott for a man of his years has had remarkable career in his chosen line of endeavor hay ing been prominent in many major engineering projects on many DOT tions of the globe; he was across the sea in the World War on at least four fronts of the battle line. Alaskans can feel particularly f grateful that the War Department has sent us one of their best.

The air age has arrived in AL aska.
 That's the word that Governor George A. Parks brought to Seat tie upon his recent arrival.
 "The airplaae Is revolutionis- ing Alaska the Governor put 1t. The Territory has established 4s landing fields. he recounted. using highway funds on the theory that airways are as important as routes for earthbound travel.
 Commercial companies are op- erating out of Fairbanks. Anchor age and Nome. Fish canneries are installing their own services. Individual planes are increasing So rapidly the Governor wouldn't guess at them frequently himself.
 And the Governor expressed no regrets that the historic dog sled is mushing along its last trail. to- ward the past of "Soapy Smith" tue ndBllme hiu anu tHe lduy known as Lou.
 ''It's like this" he explained, 'here were two boys that have a dredging outfit at Bear Creek. on the Kuskokwim. It would have taken them three weeks by dog sled to get to Nenana. Now it takes them a few hours. Their claim is only nine days from Seat tie.

 will thrill the world.
 We. here in Alaska. are already "case-hardened" to the exploits of our planes but to those Outside they are feats of daring to be mar veled at.
 When the Governor started to talk about Alaska aviation he start
 ed something from which the Ter
 ritory will receive much good. A smaller percentage of deaths is credited to world aviation in comparison to any other mode of transportation. Statistics bear this statement out. For at least five years commercial planes have been operating in Alaska and not one death or serious accident has occurred. A correspondent was killed in Fairbanks when he walk ed into a whirling propeller but
 his death could not be directly charged to flying accidents.
 Secretary of the Interior Hub
 ert Work called attention in his
 u na1 development of aviation in Alaska.
 And next year chances are fav- orable that the Army will have squadron of planes in Alaska. Progress and development come in various forms.
 Yet there are some who still believe Alaska Is not forging
 ahead.-Seward Gateway.

LINDBERGH's ACHIEVEMENT

Colonel Lindbergh has accom- plished a possibly even greater feat than was his dramatic flight across the Atlantic. Recently he concluded his tour of AS States under the auspices of the Daniel Guggenheim Fund for the promo tion of aeronautics.
 This tour was undertaken to en- courage popular interest in aero nautics. particularly in the air-mail service.
 The odyssey discloses some re- markable and gratifying facts. Stu dying them one is vastly encouraged in his faith for the future of prac- tical flying.
 During the three months since Colonel Lindbergh left New York City, he covered 22.360 airline miles with . flying time of 2so hours, visiting s2 cities. in 13 of which he made only touch stops"
 On the> trip Colonel Lindbereh was accompanied by Department

of Commerce plane, carrying repre- sentatiyes of the department and Of the fund. Each of the planes performed perfectly There were no oyerhauls, no forced landings. no delays because of mechanical difficulties.
 Nearly ten times the distance across the Atlantic was covered without flaw in mechanism or in efficiency of control.
 This remarkable continental tra- verse seems reasonable to prove that. with proper equipment and the exercise of ordinary care by skilled pilots. flying by plane should he as safe as travel in an automo- bile or by railway train. It sug- gests also that the lamentahle tra- gedies of the past few months in connection with transoceanic flights perhaps need not have happened.
