Chamber of Commerce Notes

Exchanging communication
 with William Sulzer, ex-governor
 of New York, about railroads in Alaska, MT. Ernest Walker Sawyer
 wrote; Another short but import ant road in the Territory is the link on Kenai peninsula which would connect two existing road systems, one of 20 miles and one of
 AS miles to Hope. T have urged this
 on MT. Flory" The much de- sired and needed piece Of connect ing roadway which will connect Seward with Moose Pass and Hope . is one of the projects that the Chamber took up with Mr. Sawyer while he was serving as Executive Assistant to Secretary of the Inter for Ray Lyman Wilbur.
 Several suggestions have been made as to the most practical man ner of connecting the two roads; the crossing of Snow River being the principal probIematic point The idea of a ferry from Mile Is on the Highway has been advanced, while some cling to the plan of crossing with the railroad at Mile IA Forest Ranger Sherman sug- gests, as most practical, trestle across the flats at the head of Ken ai Lake from Mile l8 on the auto road At this point the structure would not be subject to the danger of being carried away occasionally as at Mile fl. Also, making the crossing from Mile 18 would keep the entire present road in continu- ous use and, greatly in it's favor, would render unnecessary con- struction of four miles of new road way, Mile 14 to IS, on the opposite side of the lake.

On the heels of communication from Delegate Sutherland that the
 Resurrection Bay refuge harbor had been dropped from the Rivers
 and Harbors bill, came copies of
 Ernest Walker SaWyer's vigorously WOrded protest to Senator w. l.. Jones' chairman of the Senate Ap- propriation Committee. MT. Sawyer quoted the reasons set forth by the Seward Chamber of Commerce as t0 why shelter harbor should be created. and Wrote-"I think it un- reasonable that this item should have been left out of the present bill' After the Senator's reply that he would do what he could to have the item reinSerted". the Chamber invoked the cooperation of other interests and several ad- ditional messages urging that MT. Sawyer plea be heard, were hastily dispatched to Chairman Jones. Net results: cable advice from the delegate on May 27 that: Rivers and Harbors bill as reported in the Senate, carries items for Resurrec- tion Bay shelter harbor.

BURGLARS LEAVE

Clothing Store Safe Found
Intact Following Three
RobberieS.

Three Seventh street establishments
were entered early today by burglars
but it developed after a check-up that
nothing had been taken, and a safe
containing about $4,000 was not even
touched.
The first establishment believed to
have been entered was the Federal
Clothing Store at 621 Seventh street.
Entrance was gained by cracking open
trap door on the roof. Once in the
attic, the burglars ripped large hole
in tin ceiling and made their way to
the main floor of the store. A step
ladder was used later to climb out
Irving Rambler, manager, said the
store safe, containing about $4,000, was
intact.
Trap doors in roofs also were pried
open to enable robbers to enter ofhces
