'|NSUFF |C|ENCY IF HOTELS IN ALASKA"
 FROM J. S. DALI ' INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES AWAIT THE SMALL
 CAPITALIST
By Ernest Walker Sawyer, Rep resentative of Alaska Railroad
 Department of the Interior

Alaska needs hotels. Investiga ton will show that hotel may be profitable investment there. There is room now for six or eight medium sized hotels of 50 to 200 rooms. The existing hotels are usually full the year around.
 In winter the peope from out lying districts come to town Last summer the hotels of Seward, Anchorage and Fairbanks were at times crowded to capacity. This year the passenger and shipping facilities have been increased 50 per cent.
 The Alaska Railroad and the shipping companies, by careful management of schedules, have assured the tourists this Summer of ample accomodatiQns But il some one were to build addition al hotels, then we would be in sured of additional passenger fac ilities.
 There is no limit to the num- Der of tourists available to the west coast in Summer It is only hotel facilities of Alaska that con- trol the number of visitors.
 Last year it is estimated that SO,OOO people visited the Terri tory Less than 1000 of these en- tered Mount Mckinley National Park.
 The accommodations within any park are of greater importance than most people realize. Comfort able accommodations are maintain ed near Mount Mckinley and next season a $20O,OOO hotel will be built just a few miles from the mountain.
 The Department of the Interior is anxious to find private m aiyidual or company to build similar hotel near the entrance of the park along the Alaska Rail road There is also room Tor typical resort hotels or hunter 5 lodges in various sections where fishing, hunting, and scenery would attract; but the nam neeo today is for regular, comfortaOle, reasonably priced rooms anu baths.
 The opportunities of Alaska aaa are s+,,nandous Yet s1O,OO0, S2O,OOo' sso ooo or s1oo,ooo investment chances are, I believe, the most
 There is very little manuIac.. uring done. Almost every Sfnpnleas is a raw product, and Aiassa aao aao aao T s,,oad well over $1,5oo,OOO,o 900 in raw products.
 Don't go to Alaska for a Joo' Go there to start something Wnlch can use cheap, raw products-So q. s4 coal, and plenty o1 water power. Twenty billion feet of spruce, eo,Ooo,O 100000 feet of hem lock, 5O,Ooo, 100000 feet of birch and cottonwood are available.
 It is also easy to start a fox farm there. More than 50 new farms were started last year. Very little money is required for that, as fish and reindeer meat IS cheap both for man and animal.
 The summer climate of seward is about like that of Bar Haroor' Me The winter temperature com pares favorably with that of BoS-
