FAIRBANKS-SEATTLE
 HIGHWAY Is PLANNED


 The life-iong cream of many Al askans, an international nlgnWay from Alaska, through Canada to De- attIe, will be realized il the efforts of the Alaska international highway Association meet with success.
 This association was organlLed lh Fairbanks and is belng sponsored Dy the commercial club or that clty, It's president, Paul Rlekert, being presi- dent of the commercial club also.
 According to present tentative plans the road would start at Falr- banks and extend to Vancouver, a distance or approximately 1,tUo miles, Of which rom S0O to I.Uv0 miles are yet lo be constructed.
 The cost of building roads ln AL aska of the same type as the ftIcnard- son Highway, It foot crown, oz Ieel between ditches, gravel surfaced, Va ries from S4,00O to S7,000 a mile, including all structures. Taking the highest cost, the association estl- mates that the road from FairDanks to Vancouver should not cost more than S7,UO0 a m1le, or total oL S7,U0O,0oU for the l,OoU mines.
 It IS the pan or tne assoelauon to try to interest the Canadian anu United States governments In flnanc- ing the road, each paying nair. Int equal aiYlsIon or costs was expIalneu by the fact that though aDouI tmo- thirds oI the road would be in Can ada, it was 1elt that Alaska would re- ceiYe the greater benefits.
 Roughly outlined the road would start at Fairbanks and run alons the Richardson Highway for lUV miles to Mccarthy at the confluence of the Panama and Delta rivers. me road then would take the left limit of the Panama and continue to the Gerstle river, cross the Tanana and take the right limit of the Panama to the international border.
 Crossing the White River the road would follow the Donjek River to Lake Kluane, skirt the south side or this lake to the settlement of Kluane, and then on a partially constructed road continue for 150 miles to White horse. From Whitehorse the road would extend to Lake Atlln where there are 30 miles of road already constructed, and cross the old teIe- graph trail, following it to Hazelton. This point is about 1000 miles from Fairbanks.
 From Hazelton the road would go by highways now existing in British Columbia to Vancouver, about 6OU miles south.
 The association feels that this road is justified in that it would open up a highly mineralized country which now is inaccessible and that it would cut the trip to Fairbanks down to ten days. As the road does not go through snow country it would be possible to keep it open the year round if traffic justified this.
 It is the object of the Fairbanks organization to form international highway associations in every town in Alaska so that the Territory will be working unitedly in an effort to secure this road.
