Alaska Clippers In Prospect
Super planes carrying passen
gers and airmail between the
heart of Alaska and the States
loom as a possibility within the
next few months.
Today’s dispatches to the effect
American and Canadian repre
sentatives will meet in confer
ence today to consider proposals
lor such a service lend new hope
Of early realization of the dream.
Three routes are mentioned for
consideration—one to cross Can
ada from Great Falls, Montana;
One from Seattle over water; one
partly over land and partly over
water.
Whatever the route, Alaskans
are interested in getting quick
communication with their chief
base of supply in the States, the
Pacific Northwest coastal points,
whether over one route or an
other.
The British are interested in
getting a round-world route with
flying privileges across Alaska,
and the American rights across
Cahada for Alaskan and possibly
round-world and Occidental-Or
iental services.
The matter of amicable ar
rangements has been brewing
Ibr some time. It is to be hoped
the issue will be brought to a
speedy conclusion with assurance
of early establishment of such
services as will give Alaskans
the much desired close contact
with the States within a few
months.
The Alaska defense program,
tvow well launched, makes early
realization of the service all the
more urgent. The defense of the
friendly Dominion of Canada
and prospects of early starting of
Construction of the International
highway is another matter of
common concern to the two na
tions.
May the conferees sweep aside
all possible barriers and give the
Northland the service she so
fnuch desires and which is sure
to work to the mutual advantage
of all.
I
Paging Skilled Mechanics
Press dispatches telling of the
shortage of skilled men in many
public projects of the States
should be convincing enough to
young men to go in for trades
ti?at require high class mechanics
and technicians.
The government’s huge air
plane program calls for men of
the kind far beyond the supply—
and mechanized industry offers
inducements in many branches.
Men skilled in these specialized
lines do not have to seek jobs—
the jobs seek the men.
Vocational training, to qualify
for such opportunities as now
presented should appeal in part
icular to young Alaskans, with
their unusual advantages in a
land second to none in airplane
! activities and the extensive use
of mechanized equipment.

Details Of The
Japanese Good
Will Flight
O
Information relative to the
flight was received by the Assoc
iated Press bureau in Seattle
from the offices there of the Nip
pon Yusen Kaisha steamship
line.
Seven Japanese will be in the
goodwill flying par;y. Their nam
es are:
Chief pilot and navigator—
Sumitosi Nakao.
Sub-pilot—Shigeo Yoshida.
Engineer—Hajime Shimakawa.
Wireless operator — Nobusada
Sato.
Wireless navigator and engin
eer—Cosaku Yaokawa.
Reporter—Takeo Ohara.
Machinist—Hiroshi Saiki.
The flight, which will span
37.000 miles and 30 nations, is
sponsored by the newspapers
Mainichi of Osaka and Nichinichi
of Tokyo.
The land plane to be used in
this flight has been specially de
signed and built by the Mitsub
ishi concern at its factory in
Nagoya. Its two Mitsubishi Kin
sei Model engines are capable of
a cruising speed of 140 miles an
hour.
The chief pilot, Sumitosi Na
kao, is considered the foremost
civilian pilot Japan has ever pro
duced. He has made a flight
from Europe to Japan and also
several flights between Tokyo
and Siam. He is 35 years old.
Incidentally, every member of
the crew is on the staffs of the
aeronautic departments of the
Mainichi and the Nichinichi.
The undertaking is purely a
goodwill flight, with emphasis on
safety rather than speed.
This will be the first round
the-world flight undertaken by
Japanese. The course selected for
this flight takes the plane from
Tokyo to Nemuro (Hokkaido, Ja
pan). Nome. Whitehorse. Vancou
ver, Seattle, Los Angeles, Kansas
City, New York. Miami, San Jose
(Costa Rica). Guyaquil, Arica,
Santiago (Chile), Mendoza. Bue
nos Aires, Rio de Janeiro, Natal,
Dakar (Africa), Casa Blanca,
Paris, London, Berlin, Rome, Bag
dad, Jodpur (India), Bangkok,
Taihoku (Formosa), and back to
Tokyo.
Stated in geographical terms,
this itinerary means that the
flight will involve many feats
which, although not unprecedent
ed, will test capacity for a long
continued flight demonstration
under an extraordinary variety
of transport conditions.
The first section of the jour
ney to Nome means a flight in
the north. The trip down the I
west coast of North America to |
San Diego involves no great haz- (
ards or difficulties, and there are
well-charted courses across the
continent to New York.
The Central and South Ameri
can points of call are all on reg
ularly established airline points.
The trans-Andean crossing
from Santiago to Mendoza, Ar
gentine, involves high altitude
flying, and since the Japanese'
aviators are not familiar with the
crossing of the Cordillera, this
accomplishment will be a real
feat.
The crossing usually is made
at elevations of 17.(MX) feet or
higher, through the Upsallanta
Pass, above the well-known stat
ue of the “Christ of the Andes”
which symbolizes peace between
Chile and Argentine.
Now is the time to look over
your job printing needs for the
spring and summer. The Nug
get Office will be glad to consult
with you as to your wants and
prices on same.
