My dear Mr. Urbach
I want to take this method of ex

here and my regrets that I have
-of bad the opportunity of spending
moie time in Seward and becoming
better acquainted with the people of

Owing to a number of reasons,
but chiefly because of a luncheon

that is being _ tendered me by the
Anchorage Chamber of Commerce
on Saturday, it will be most conven
ient to leave here Sunday morning
and, for that reason, I may not have
the opportunity of saying good-by
to very many of the people that 1
would like to see in Seward.
The problem that confronted me
during my administration, was to
heed the demand from Washington
for a reduction in the deficit for the
operation of The Alaska Railroad
and in which I have been fairly
successful.
The deficit for the fiscal year
19?4 was, in round numbers, $1,
800,000 while for the fiscal year
192S the actual figures are not yet
available, from the figures we have
the deficit for that year will prob
ably not exceed $825,000. About
half of this decrease in deficiency
is due to increased earnings and
the other half in decreased expenses
I believe that due regard has
been had to performing a reasonable
service for the patrons but it is dif
ficult to reduce expenses without
adversely affecting some of the
communities, but would call your
aftention to the fact that Seward
has had the advantage, for what it
r ay be worth, of having practically
all of the inbound and outbound
freight, interchanged with the
steamships, handled over the Seyard
dock and that a train crew has
been located at Seward instead of
Anchorage as formerly.
The uncertainty as to what policy
will be followed with reference to
the railroad between Seward and
Anchorage; that is, whether per
manent structures should be con
structed on the alignment and grade
as it now exists or if reduction in
giades, tunnels, etc. should be built
on the present line or on a new
location, has deferred the expendi
ture of money chargeable to im
provements on the southern end of
the'line, you can readily see, this is
r very important question and one
difficult of determination in a man
ner satisfactory to anyone who has
any responsibility in connection j
with this decision.
I will always be interested in Al
aska, the people of Alaska and The
Alaska Railroad and if I can be of
ary service in enlightening the
people of the United States as tn
Have you heard the new
“Okeh” records at Sylvia’s?
They are wonderful.
