CHANGE IN RAIL MANAGEMENT
While great affairs of state promise.to occupy at
tention in Washington there is little likelihood of a
change in the management of the Alaska Railroad. Bul
that such a change is likely is shown in the efforts of
friends of T. J. O’Donnell of Palo Alto, Calif., to have
him named for the job.
The question of change is subordinated to that ot
policy. No matter who takes over the management of
the railroad, without a clear-cut policy, reposing broad
discretionary powers in the hands of the management,
there can be little deviation from the course followed by
the road during the past decade.
It can be said to the credit of Colonel Otto F. Ohl
son that he came to Alaska with vision and the ability
to put progressive ideas into operation. One by one these
practical ideas were shelved by meddling of men in Wash
ington who had no comprehensive knowledge of Alaska
and what the Alaska Railroad imposed in point of initia
tive and innovation.
No better time offers than the present for the entire
question of the Alaska Railroad to undergo close scru
tiny and a general rejuvenation as the system relates to
developing "this portion of the Territory.
The mere reduction of the annual deficit to $177,283
and further retrenchments seeking to eliminate the def
icit altogether does not vindicate the railroad. The man
ner in which this result was achieved was like unto bus
iness laying off employees in an effort to solve the major
question of the depression.
The Alaska Railroad should be made to vindicate it
self and becomes sustaining not by retrenchments, but hy
stimulating developments whose volume will accomplish
all that is sought.
Secretary of the Treasury Woodin is a music com- j
poser. Jimmy Walker thought he was.
★ ★ ★
While the national administration is giving a new i
deal, it appears that the Ketchikan Journal Printing Co.,
was compelled to go to court to get the thing started in
the Territory.
★ ★ ★
There is talk of abolishing Hollywood and moving it
to New York. Might as well have all of the rotteness in
one spot.
★ ★ ★ ★
Whatever might be said of Alaska’s climate it has
not been necessary to thaw out any frozen bank assets.

With Secretary of Treasury W’oodin a composer we
ought to be able to face the music.

ON PACIFIC COAST
Reminiscing of the many for
mer Alaskans whom he met during
his recent visit to Paciifc Coast
states, T. W. Hawkins, head of
Brown & Hawkins Corporation,
said he saw what seemed to be
hundreds and. with few excep
tions, all expressed the desire and
hope they could again return to
the Northland.
Some were dong quite well, Mr.
i Hawkins said, and again many in
stances of just the reverse wei'e
I seen.
j In San Francisco Mr. Hawkins
stopped at the Hotel Argonaut and
! there renewed acquaintance with
j a former local empoyee, Jimmy
j Stanhouse, who is chief clerk of
I the big establishment.
Leo Margules, former prominent
Seward business man who still
retains considerable property in
terests, is now assistant general
manager of the Fairmont Hotel,
reputed to be the finest in Cali
fornia.
Mr. Hawkins attended an Alas
kan organization dance at Los An
geles the forepart of the year and
saw so many old trends he could j
not recall, offhand, their names, j
for a great number had left the j
Territory many years ago; had j
aged and instant recognition was
oftimes hard.
Jack Robarts, formerly of An- j
chorage, is one of the leading of
ficers of an Alaskan organization.
Earl Reed, formerly employed in
Seward by the Standard Oil and
the postoffice, is the most popular
traffic officer in Hollywood.
The former fire loss adjuster,
Mr. Green, resides at San Diego and
has a lucrative business and fine
offices in the First National Bank
building in that city.
Charlie Bush, formerly the man
ager of the Anchorage store of
Brown & Hawkins, is employed in
a clothing store in San Diego and
said he would give his right arm
to be back in Alaska again.
Eddie Whittemore lives near San
Diego; his son, Harry, is employed
by the Benson Lumber Co.
Mi's. Hallett lives in San Diego;
Mrs. Billy Ellis, wife of the former
Sew'ard butcher, is manager of a
splendid Los Angeles apartment
house.
Mrs. Anderson, the mother of
Sid. former local banker, is appar
ently* enjoying good health in Los
Angeles.
Una Korth, with the Seward and
Anchorage banks for many years,
is employed by the Canadian Bank
I of Commerce in Los Angeles.
Ben Grier, former Alaska legis
! lator from Anchorage is conduct
j ing a concession in Long Beach.
John Kosrosky, who also worked
for Brown & Hawkins years ago,
I is nowT in the movies, an actor.
Fred Hale, former vice president
cf the Bank of Seward, is the own
er of a hardware store in Los An
geles.
Bobby Beach, who married the!
| sister of A. F. Davis, is doing well
I near Los Angeles where he has an
j orange grove.
| Mrs. A1 Taylor is married to a
j Mr. French and resides in Fuller -
j ten, Calf., where they operate an
oil service station.
: Besides these, Mr. Hawkins met J
! Mrs. Daggett, Dr. Sloan, Jim Fish,
Mrs. Judkins, Mrs- Saurers, Matt
Faust, Edde Boyle and dozens of
others.
The most outstanding city vis
ited was San Francisco and it cer- i
tainly looked prosperous, he con- '
eluded.
