C, Feb. 25— | (Special Correspondent) A good | idea of the growth of commercial |aviation in Alaska is given in fig- | ures preparéed by Ernest Walker | sawyer. Commiercial aviation made its appearance nine years ago in Alaska. A special experimental air- mial contract was made to carry mail from Fainbanks 6 MeGrath, a distance of about 300 mifes. when this system Wwas inaugurated, mail was being transported by dog sled. It required 17 days to make the trips compared with 2 hours and 45 minutes by the first air trip. Once 'the advantages of air-mail were” demonstrated, progress in the development of this means of transportation has continued. At present there are 67 aviation flieds within the Territory and five hyd- present there are 67 aviation flelds vary in sige from 250 to 600 'feet to 400 by 1400, feet. Fairbanks and Anchorage fields have ' two Tunways 400:by 2,000 feet. Governor George A. Parks states that the total aid to aviation has been approximately $180,000 and that the economic benefits have justi- fied the expeditures.

Last year the amount al- lbwed was $54,425,230, but the sum recommended by the Committee for the approaching year is $44,132,857. TFor the ‘Alaska general service un- der the Bureau of Fisheries the last appropriation of $446240 has ‘been reduced to $412,300. For the mining station and mine inspection in Alaska the former sum of $11,- 460 has been slightly reduced to $10,885." It “is not expected that there will be any further reduc- tians in these figures.
