Discussion of the possibilities
if the aeroplane as a means of
solving some of the transportation
iroblems of this section is becom
ing decidedly interesting. Several
’ocal parties are now highly en
thusiastic over the prospects of.
an aerial transportation route and
it is an excellent bet that at least
one of the machines will be doing
service over Seward peninsula
before another winter arrives The
’atest to become actively interest
ed in the matter of the aero pos
sibilities is the chamber of com
merce, which today sent the fol
lowing telegram to the Curtis
\eroplane factory at Buffalo and
die Aeronautical Society of Am
mica at New York city:
Can the Chamber of Commerce
assist in making aerial mail ser
vice a success? Postoffice depart
ment asks bids May 12. Are air
men interested? Local capital
available but meager information
nrecludes intelligent action. Many
'ight mail and freight routes
should make aeroplane invest
ments profitable and important
factor development of territory.

MERCE.

March 20-29 This company de
sires to confirm assurances given
bureau that no advances south
bound rates are proposed. That
advances northbound rates, we
believe will be found reasonable
and justified'by existing condi
tions- It is our desire to co-op

It is announced that the cham
ber will take immediate action to
impress upon the company that
the people of this section are very
earnest in their demand that this
section of Alaska be given an qp
•lortnnity to develop and will in
sist that the company grant re
Uictions in south bound rates and
are also decidedly opposed to any
increase of northbound rates. The
matter will he fully discussed at
the meeting ol the chairmen of the
the chamber this evening and will
dso be laid before the big ineet
;ng at Eagle hall next Sunday. On
this occasion the citizens will
probably be given an opportunity
to enter a vigorous protest. Ac
cording to a local business mat,
the increase in northbound rates
will result in the people of St
ward peninsula paying out fully
fifty thousand dollars more than
usual during the coming summer
for traffic expense. Additional
results will be that the price of
coal, foodstuffs merchandise and
general supplies will advance pro
portionately in the local markets
thus adding an extra cost to the
consumer not considered in the
estimate given.
THE CURTAIN WILL RISE
