GEN. MGR, NOEL SMITH
SIS FOR WASHINGTON
III INTEREST OF R. R.
Accompanied by Mrs. Smith and B.
f H. Barndollar, chief accountant, of
:The Alaska Railroad, General Mana
ger Noel W. Smith sailed for Wash
ington aboard the S. S. Alaska Satur
day night, where he is journeying to
; submit his annual report of operations
of the railroad, and present his re
quests for appropriations for the fiscal
year 1926-27. Mr. Smith’s complete
financial report was published in Fri
day’s Gateway.
Encouragement of industries, such
as mining, agriculture and woodwork
ing, epotomizes Mr. Smith’s announc
jed plans for next and future years.
;This w’ork will be furthered by the
! agency of a commercial representa
tive armed with data calculated to im
:
press the investor abroad with oppor
| tunities in this portion of Alaska. In
| furtherance of encouraging woodwork
ing manufacturings, Mr. Smith stated
| that he had given demonstrations in
The Alaska Railroad shops which
show that salmon cases may be manu
factured economically in Alaska along
with the production of other lumber
such as birch and cottonwood. With
respect to agriculture, a small canning
plant was introduced by the railroad j
to prove that Alaskan vegetables!
could be thus conserved at a profit
and thus keep large sums of money
at home.
No change in policy from that of
paring down operating expenses was
announced, but it is understood that
the railroad management is preparing j
to enlarge the activities of the indus
trial department as indicated, to the
fullest extent permissible under funds j
for that purpose.
Accompanving Mr. Smth aboard his j
I
, private car from Anchorage were Mrs.
H. E. Brown, wife of the Anchorage
[dispatcher; Mrs. Lack, mother of Nor
man Lack, General Agent Tod Cun
ningham and First Assistant to Mr.
| Smith, H. Horn, who will be1 in charge
of the railroad during Mr. Smith’s ab
secne. Mrs. Lack and Mrs. Brown are
'en route to the States on an extended
! visit.
