Alaska Southeastern Alaska is one of the most promising sections and the most likely of immediate develop- ment, declared Dr. Phillip S. Smith, Chief Alaskan Geologist, to the Chamber of Commerce today. He arrived this morning from a trip around the world and is getting in touch with recent developments Here and the progress of the sea< son’s work of the United States Survey in the Territory. ‘Dr. Smith left Washington last | .| the Geological Survey will TO SEE THEM IS TO WANT THEM! B. M. Behrends Co., Inc. Juneau’s Leading Department Store River strikes was received here. He said he received it with pleas- ure and hopefulness that they would result in substantial development. Southeastern Alaska, he added, from velopment has the mosi promisin outlook of any section of Alaska. The Geological Survey, recogniz- ing that fact is launching a com- prehénsive program in which the aerial mapping now being done by Navy planes is but the initial step. The next step will be to re- |duce the aerial photographs . o | drainage maps. This will be fol- |lowed by topographers in the field ;Lo make topographic maps, and | for fiel!! studies by ceologists. At the conclusion or mapping | operations this season between 15,- 000 and 18,000 square miles in Southeastern Alaska will have been mapped. Years of activity will be required to carry out the program of which this is the foundation. Hopes for Increases “Now that we have an engineer as President, we hope to be able |to get more funds and thus in- crease our work in Alaska than {has been possible in the past,” Dr. Smith. said. “It is my belief that con- duct its local work very much more vigorously* in Southeastern the standpoint of immediate de- | |these in turn will be the basis| | heretofore possible,” he said. Circles the Globe Dr. Smith will have circled the globe when he returns to Washing- ton next Fall. Leaving Washing- ton last April with his son and| /daughter, he went east visiting |France, Switzerland and Italy,; -through the Suez Canal and the | Mediterranean to the Far East. On his return trip, after spendihg 30 gdnys on the island of Java, he touched at Colombo, Hongkong, | Shanghaj spending eight days in Japan, thence to Homolulu and | San Francisco. He came to Alaska to look over |the work here and lay plans for future activities. In addition to Mr. Sargent’s work in Southeastern Alaska, and B. D. Stewart, Mining{ Supervisor and bureau representa- tive here, there are three other Geological Survey parties in the |field this summer. S. R. Capps and Gerald Fitzgerald are making studies on the north side of the range in the Lake Clarke region. |F. H. Moffitt, is in the Chisto- |chena district, and Dr. J. B. Murtie is making an investigation of mineralized areas between Liv- engood and Circle. Dr. Smith wilr be here about a week and will leave then for the | interior. Other gues's o the Chamber to- Alaska and elsewhere than wnslday included: E. P. Ziegler, former | company’s Rarkrader property on Episcopal misstonary at Cordova, who has attracted wide attention for his paintings of Alaska scenes; A. W. Bryant. manager of J. R. Heckman & Company of Ketchi- kan; and Judge W. H. Dugdell, United States Commissioner at| Yakutat. Mr. Ziegler disclaimed being an artist, saying he was a business- an first, last and all the time. In an interesting and amusing ‘manher, he described his initial efforts at painting and some of his experiences at Cordova. ADMIRALTY 15, COAL COMPANY WILL 60 AHEAD Local Coal Company Plans Put Mine on 50-Ton Daily Production a 50-ton daily production basis.| This was announced today by John Reck, Acting Secretary-Treasurer, succeeding H. H. Lerch, resigned. It will require, Mr. Reck said,| $25,000 to put the mine into opera- | tion on a paying basis. This sum | he added, will be raised locally by | stock subscriptions. In faet, of the $25,000, pledges amounting 4o ap- proximately $14,000 have been ob- | tained and he was confident that, local investors would subscribe the | time. capital. It.is a bona fide local proposition and it is the intention of the company to keep it that way,” Mr. Reck said. The necessary development work femaining to be done includes driving of an air shaft, construction of coal bunkers and putting in a water system on the property. A working tunnel has.been driven on & six-foot vein of coal to the depth of 680 feet. At that depth the bed leveled off. | At a meeting of the stockholders of the Admiralty Island Coal Com- pany, held early this week, a de- cision was ‘reached to proceed with the development program without unnecessary delay and to put the. ‘When these additional improve- ments have been made, the com- pany is assured by competent en- gineers that 10 men can produce 50 tons of high grade coal daily.
