PRESIDENT’S MANN
IS A BIG MAN
i
i (Continued from page 1.) y
this trip. Mr. Mann is an incis
1 ive talker ad an, amazingly good
listener. \Y|i»yi he talked it was
to get information and he seemed
to grasp statements comprehen
sively. '
Valdez citizens would have
been, glad to talk further to Mr.
Ma^m but the time was short
after he had been shown around
to see as much as possible. One
thing local men tried to make
plain to him was that all Alas
kans are agreed that govern
ment aid to transportation is
the territory’s most needed re
quirement. He was told that
Alaska wants and heeds more
railroads and more wagon roads,
and as many miles of both as
the government ciln be induced
to give.
Mr. Mann was tom tnat witn
out increased transportation fa
cilities the territory will contin
ue to stagnate as it has done
since the Colonel nailed the lid
on at Pinchot’s behest. While
he stated that his olily business
in Alaska was to secure as much
information as he could and re
port to the president he intima
ted that the transportation, talk
looked reasonable to him- In ans
wer to a question he gave it as
his personal opinion that pros
pects for getting a government
railroad in Alaska from, the pres
et administration are good. He
cautiously added that he was not
representing anybody else in
making that statement.
The Chugach forest reserve
was brought up and received a
kfnock from nearly everybody.
Mr. Mann seemed curious about
it and asked several questions.
He was told that while the re
serve is nearly friendless in Alas
ka if is regarded generally as
merely a petty Jiuisance that nev
erhad any excuse for existence,
not as a serious obstacle to de
velopment.
