S. Bragaw, Jr, past presi dent of the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce and head of the Gla cier Tours Association, who s here as a member of the Anchor- age Elks’ bowling squad, was ti:| other speaker at today's meeting of the Chamber. Other visitors included: Lyle W. Larson, R. D. “Tommy” Thompson, C. G. Spens- ley, S. W. Ostrander and M. McDonald, all members of t Anchorage bowling squad, W. Mills, Henry Bahrt and Mo Woods, of Sitka. Conditions at Anchorage Prefacing his remarks *with a Vice-President of the Americin |® | work. general invitation to Juneau peJ»‘ ple visiting Anchorage to get in touch with the Commercial Club there, Mr. Bragaw spoke briefly on the industries of that section of the Territory. Fur farms to the value of §1,500,000 have been developed there, he said, Farm-| ers in the Matanuska Valley are| entering the fur farming induqm‘ in a small way, finding in it o source of cash while they are de- veloping their agricultural ho'd- ings. Last year between $350,000 and $400,000 worth of furs were produced. The farming opportunity in that valley, Mr. Bragaw said, is pres- ent for real farmers who are not afraid of hard work, But it is not a country for anyone who is look- ing for an easy living. The soil. equal in chness to highly oa- riched garden plots in the Statos, in some places has a depth of from 10 to 12 feet and really pro- duces wonderful crops. Wheat, oats, barley, field peas as well as root crops are grown. Good farm- ers can make a success by hard Coal Development Development in the Matanuski coal field, while not rapid, ha: been steady, he said. At least one mine has developed a deposit of good quality which could be used in Southeastern Alaska in competition with foreign fuel. Mr Braguw suggested the ad- ility of this section of the Territory making an effort to .| patronize the coal mining indus- try of the.railroad belt. He said he believed the canning plants should give it serious considera- tion, = He believed they should | attending the e e AR patronize Alaskan industries am buy everything possible in the Territory. A policy of this na ture, he added, would result in : change of sentiment which is an tagonistic in some districts. Not After Capital “We are mnot really serious about wanting to take the capital of the Territory away from Ju neau,” declared Mr. Bragaw, adi- ing, amid laughter, “When Juneau gets tired of it and wants to get rid of the capital, then Anchoc- age would like to have it.” He admitted there were a few por- sons in Anchorage continually. agitating the matter but they do not represent the real attitude of the community. He said the railroad is going ahead very nicely under the man- agement of Noel W. Smith whn has put it on a sound basis de- spite the handicap imposed on him by a lack of funds. The road, he added, has always beea effl tly managed and that the changes in management were the results of politics. He praised highly the Alaska Game Commission. “We are sal- isfied with the Commission’s res ulations,” he said. He advocated larger appropriations for the Commission to enable it to em- ploy a larger field force. Mr. Bragaw introduced other mem- bers of the Anchorage delegation lunch. Messrs. Mills, Bahrt and Woods were in- troduced to the Chamber by Pres- ident George.
