HANKS BASKS IN
THE LIMELIGHT OF
WASHINGTON PAPER
The United States Daily Wash
ington. D. C., of January 17, car
ries a long story entitled “Cen
tral Location of Fairbanks as
Port is Depicted.” It tells in de
tail the brief dispatch published
in the Gateway two or' three
weeks ago, relative to Fairbanks
being destined to one day becom
ing of world importance in air
plane traffic.
Accompanying the article is a 6
column circle, projection map,
showing strategic geographical
position of Fairbanks.
The Department of the Inter
ior had previously sent The
Gateway a copy of this map but
in the last mail came another, a
new map of the proposed Pacific
Yukon Highway. Aside from be
ing a precise drawing, giving the
names of all important points,
the new map contains air fields,
hydroplane landings and Zeppe
lin fields.
In the general information
contained in the press copy re
ceived by The Gateway from the
department, there is found an
item pertinent to Seward:
“It is shorter from Los Angeles
to Manila via Seward, than via
Honolulu.”
All this work is mostly from
Ernest Walker Sawyer.

GOOD YEAR
Despite unfavorable market con
ditions which resulted in abnor
mally low prices for both fresh
