 The business opportunities for the new corporation also include carrying tourists on sightseeing trips. big game hunters, prospectors, fur buy CTS, government officials, men and supplies to and from canneries.

AIR TRANSPORTATION FOR
 SOUTHEASTERN ALASKA
Service to Be Inaugurated Within Next 30 Days, Maintaining a Regular Schedule Between Ketchikan, Wrangel1, Petersburg, Juneau
 And SkagWay

Within 30 days an aerial service covering Southeastern Alaska will be launched, and a regular schedule will be maintained between Ketchikan, Wrangell, Petersburg, Juneau and skagway, according to announce ment made today by B. W. Burke of Wrangel.
 Mr. Burke says that the comple- ton of final arrangements for the es- tablishment of air lines in Alaska is the outcome of more than six months of strenuous effort on his part. He states that one day last spring he read a newspaper article telling of the rapid strides being made In com mereial aviation. That put him to thinking on this subject. and he saw no reason why Alaska-partieu ieularly the Southeastern portion of the Ter ritory-should not offer an excellent opportunity for the establishment of an air line which would maintain regular schedules between the prin- eipal towns of the Alexander arehi- pelago. After giving the subject few weeks of serious study he became thoroughly convinced that such an undertaking would be a sound busi- ness proposition. Accordingly on March 18th he left WrangeI for the States for the purpose of organizing an air transportation company to operate in Alaska.

Competition Encountered

On returning to Alaska two weeks ago MT. Burke learned that F. D.. Brannan of Juneau had been pro- noting a similar company which was receiving the backing of several of Juneaus leading business smen.t
 MT. Burke decided that a consoli- dation of his company with the one being organized by MT. Brannan would be a wise move for the reason that one strong company would have a better chance of success than two companies operating independently of each other. He then made trip to Juneau where he entered into nego- tiations which this week resulted in the consolidation of the two cOmpa- nies. Under the terms of the merger the name of MT. Burke's company - Alaska Air Lines, Incorporated-re- mains unchanged.
 A. H. Ziegler, a prominent lawyer of Ketchikan, has been retained as counsel for the corporation, which Is capitalized at $100,000. Unlike many new corporations this company is not offering any stock for sale, the entire issue having already been fully sub scribed 4z 1
 Order Is Placed for Two Ships "
 When asked how soon he expected to have airships in operation in Alas ka, MT. Burke stated that an order has already been placed with the Ryan Aircraft Corporation of San Diego for two new fiye-plaee Ryan Broughams. The delivery of the first ship will be made on or before 0cto- Der 15. The delivery of the second ship will be made on or before No vember 15. These planes are to be du- plicates of Colonel Lindbergh's pri- yate ship, and in many ways sisters to the famous Spirit of St. Louis. !"
 These ships will be powered with Wright Whirlwind motors and fitted with pontoons of the latest all-metal type and are as modern, safe, and well suited for. the Alaska service as anything it would be possible to pro cure. Four passengers will be carried In one of these planes in a heated, upholstered cabin with as much comfort as they would find in an en- closed car The Ryan planes so equip- ped cruise at hundred miles per hour, although they are fully capable of a greater speed.

Very Little Encouragement at Firs

Very Little Encouragement at First
 Mr. Burke states that he met with very little encouragement at first, but by hard work he was finally sue eessful in interesting several promi- nent business men who were well able to finance the proposition. On July 5 a corporation to be known as the Alaska Air Lines, Incorporated, came into existence.
 During the next few months MT, Burke devoted his entire time to learning everything possible concern ing the administration and mainte- nance of air transportation lines in order that the Alaska Air Lines, In- corporated, could be managed with greatest efficiency and prove a profitable business venture. He per sonally visited the executive offices of every commercial air line trans portation company on the Pacific coast and studied their methods. He says that in every instance the air transportation companies extended him courtesy and cooperation in his efforts to familiarize himself with the most approved methods for the successful operation of air transpor- tation lines. At Los Angeles he took a three months course in Air Way Maintenance and Operation.
