OUTLOOK FOR EARLY SHIPMENT OUTSIDE OF
MATANUSKA COAL BRIGHT SAYS SULZER
WASHINGTON, July 19, (Mail Cor
respondence).—Prospects of an early
development of Alaska’s vast coal
fields apear brighter now than ever,
according to Delegate Charles A. Sul
zer, of Alaska, who has been hammer
ing away at departmental rules and
regulations and governmental restric
tions of all kinds ever since he came
j here three months ago.
Numerous conferences have been
held by the Delegate from Alaska with
I officials of the Interior department,
with Secretary Lane. Assitant to the
Sec. Herbert Meyer, Commissioner
! Clay Tall man of the land office and
Director Van Manning of the Bureau
of Mines. It is Mr. Sulzer’s opinion
that by making the leases a little less
harsh in their provisions, a number
of responsible firms could be induced
to come into the coal fileds and open
them up.
The aid of Mr. Francis S. Peabody,
i chairman of the Committee on Coal
Production of the National Council of
Defense, has been enlisted by Mr. Sul
zer in the fight to open Alaska’s coal.
Mr. Peabody is a business man who
has been given advisory charge of the
coal mines of the United States. He
aprpeciates the handicaps under which
Alaska has been working and has of
fered his whole-souled support to Mr.
I Sulzer in the matter.
“The splendid part of the whole
fight.” Mr. Sulzer said yesterday, ‘‘is
the fine spirit of co-operation shown

FREIGHT ON
LAMBS HIGH
Quoted to Portland Men as Reason
New Line Should Break Into
Alaska Field
-■ —
PORTLAND, July 20, (Mail Corres
pondence).—Lambs are worth their
weight in gold in Alaska. It costs $(>
apiece for shipping a flock of the ani
mals from Seattle to Dutch Harbor,
Alaska, according to a statement made
by Dr. Andrew C. Smith before the
Port of Portland commissioners yes
terday afternoon. He also said the
transportation charges over the same
route on a small kit of fish are 75c,
while the tariff on lumber is corres
pondingly high.
Dr. Smith is representing a com
pany which is anxious to ship goods
out of Portland direct to Alaska and
cited the instances to show that the
Sound freight rates are out of all pro
portion. In order to demonstrate that
the venture will supply a real need he
asked the Port of Portland for a lease
of the pilot schooner Joseph Pulitzer,
whihc he would send to Alaska with a
cargo of lambs, kitted fish and other
frieight. He was informed that the
Pulitzer is not suitable for the pur
pose, but he can look into the matter
and if he cares to operate her on the
Portland-Alaska run he may do so.
