MOOSE PASS CLAIMED TO BE
ALASKA’S MOST BEAUT
IFUL DISTRICT
With the hope that the Bureau
of Public Roads may obtain funds
and be authorized in the near
future to construct the so-called
“Missing Link” road between Law- !
ing and Mile 29. local businesses
have started preliminary plans
toward subscribing to the pur-1
chase of a ferry and its operation,!
from Mile 18, end cf the Seward
Kenai Lake highway, across the
lake to Lawing.
This move is calculated to
show the government the town’s
faith in the proposed project for
which the residents of the Moose
Pass and Kenai peninsula and
citizens of Seward, have been'
clamoring for for years. As has
been pointed out previously such
a road would furnish a means
of egress and ingress by auto
which hitherto has been denied
owing to the missing gap in the j
road from Mile 18 to Mile 29. This
hookup would permit a continued
road system nearly 80 miles in j
length; one way.
Tentative plans for the ferry, |
and its operation, place the cost j
in the neighborhood of $2,000. i
The estimate given would provide j
a powered ferry capable of car- i
rying at least four autos each
trip. The operator would be on
monthly salary.
One plan suggested, with re
gard to payment, was that Sew
ard motorists be charged $5 a
car, each way; also a head-tax,
and no charge of any description;
be made to the out—of—town
residents or, in other words, the
residents of Moose Pass and the
entire Kenai peninsula. The to
tal cost, under this idea, would
therefore be borne by Seward
folk.
The present fare over the rail
road for shipping a car to Mile
29 is $15 so a saving of at least

$5 per car would be made under
the above suggestion. It was said
where thus far about 50 cars
have been shipped to the Pass,
in order to make the beautiful
scenic trip over the magnificent
piece of road construction, with
out a doub't hundreds of autoists
would make the journey to the
Pass once the ferry and proposed
road are built.
It is also said that dozens of
lo^al citizens would erect sum

paradise in Alaska, Moose Pass
is it; words fail to describe the
lure of that enchanted region.
