Senator Millard Writes From the

The Valdez Commercial Association ;
is in receipt of a letter from Presi-1
dent Millard, stating that the people j
of Seattle see but little chance of
the government taking over existing j
lines, and that it looks very riiuch
as though Valdez will be selected
as the terminus of the trunk line to
Fairbanks.
Some people seem to think that
Portage bay may get the line to the
Matanuska coal fields, but this will
only be in the event that the route
around the glacier can be made prac- !
tical.
