LETTER FROM DENMARK
RECEIVED IN SEWARD IN
' TWO WEEKS TIME
Two weeks from Denmark to Sew
ard is the remarkably fast time a let
ter traversed a continent and two
oceans, according to post marks on
the letter which was received by Peter
Christensen. The letter evidently
made a speedy trip across the Atlan
tic but from New York to San Fran
cisco, thence to Seattle, it was car
ried by the U. S. Air-Mail service, ar
riving in Seattle during the night
prior to the sailing of the S. S. Alas
ka, in port Sunday.
Development of the air mail service
is looked upon by the Postmaster Gen
eral as one of the outstanding achieve
ments of the Postal Service. About
$15,000,000 has been spent and the as
sets in planes, shops, air fields, hang
ars and buildings are placed at ap
proximately $4,000,000. Its personnel
comprises 550 employes. It is prob
able that most of the personnel and
material may be taken over by the
successful contractor. There are near
ly 100 planes.
Nearly sixteen million letters were
carried by the New York-Chicago
overnight air mail services during the
year which ended October 31. Since
the beginning of the air mail service
in 1918 planes carrying mails have
travelled more than 11,000,000 miles.
Thirty pilots and nine employes who
accompanied pilots on flights have
been killed.
Acknowledgement of receiving a let
ter from the local Chamber of Com
merce with reference to petitions to
the Bureau of Public Roads and For
estry department in the interest of
securing a road from Seward to the
villages of Kenai, P. H. McCue, man
ager of the Northwestern Fisheries
Company, Seattle, states he has writ
ten a letter to both of the above men
tioned departments endorsing the pro
jects and trusts they will act favor
ably on the matter.

LOOKING AHEAD
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm
faith in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with Al
askan progress can accomplish much. “Looking Ahead” to still great
er things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one way that
a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pain
stakingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”
