THE SEWARD AVIATION FIELD
Seward may be one of the few major cities in Alaska
to have been without its own aviation field but with the
action taken yesterday by the City Council, and dona
tion of acreage by H. V. Hoben, prominent local business
man, the way has been paved for what is said to be will
be one of the finest airplane landing fields in the Terri
tory Under the engineering board of the Territory and
in conjunction with the Alaska Road Commission, the
sum of $6,000 will be available for the construction of
the field, the City of Seward to appropriate 25 percent
of the total expenditure. This, the City Council, in spe
cial session yesterday, agreed to do.
Seward's new administration is to be congratulated
on their promptness in reaching a decision on this most
important matter and Mr. Hoben, whose philanthropic
act is in line with his ever readiness to promote the wel
fare of the city, deserves the thanks of the community
for his offer in donating land for the field which kind
offer has been accepted by Mayor P. C. McMullen in be
half of the city.
The new work on the radio road this season by the
Bureau of Publis Roads, which will practically make a
new highway from Seward to the station, will pass di
rectly in front of the aviation field a feature of consid
erable worth in having access to the site at all seasons
of the year.
Thus, another milestone in the progress of Seward
has been reached thanks to all concerned.
