PRESIDENT AMERICAN DREDGE
BUILDING COMPANY SEES
GREAT OPPORTUNITIES.
That Kenai Peninsula holds out un
1 usual attractions to capital in the
dredging industry and that unusual
resources along these lines remain
for development in the vicinity of Se
ward is the opinion of B. Bernard,
I president and general manager of the
American Dredge Building & Con
struction company of Seattle, who,
left yesterday on the Mariposa for
Anchorage en route to. Susitna and
the Kuskokwim country. “The future
advancement of Seward as one of the
leading cities to be quickly
created through the government
policy of opening up Alaska is assur-;
ed.” remarked Mr. Bernard, “Its ideal
location, protected harbor and natur
al ourroundings alone would make it
a city of importance in the future.
These features coupled with its min
erial resources should have attracted
j attention long before the government
j decided on its R .R policy and now
that it is brought to the attention of
the world, unlimited- influence should
assist in developing its resources.
Dredging is in its infancy on the
Kenai Peninsula and Seward will
naturally be the distributing point
when it reaches maturity. It must be
carried on in a business manner and
simply resolves itself into a manu
facturing industry. The ground con
tains certain percentage of values,
the dredge handles so much gravel
daily and with skilled labor to keep
the machinery in motion the results
are assured.”
Mr. Bernard is well known on Sew
ard Peninsula as one of the leading
dredge operators and during the past
eight years has installed eight
dredges there. Several subsidiary
