But out of the ashes of that fire the Seattle spirit tory should be afforded by the following editorial comment from the Seattle Star.

A generation | must “bridge the jcall for men an to center around San Francisco as a start- ing point, and San Francisco has some definite advantages. But the North Pacific coast should also be working to establish its own services—backed by the fact that it is closer to the Orient. | The San Francisco-Yokohama route is divided into two parts: 2408 miles to Hono- lulu; 2815 miles more to Yokohama. Total, 5223 miles. The Seattle route divides at Dutch Harbor, which is 1966 miles west of Seattle, and 2934 miles east of Yokohama. Total, 4900 miles. This gives San Francisco an advantage because her route enjoys better weather and the two hops are more nearly equal in dis- tance. Also it may be expected that travel to Honolulu, from each end, will be greater than to Dutch Harbor. Let us face the facts: In 10 years flying the Pacific will be commonplace, and thou- sands of travelers will come to the Pacific Coast from other parts of America to en- plane. North Pacific ports seemingly will be handicapped, not only by California ports’ earlier start, but by some natural phen- omenon. ‘This should not discourage the Northwest; it should be a challenge. Future air busi- ness is worth fighting for and if, by any means, the shorter northern route can be popularized first, it should be. Let us not forget that the coming of universal air-transport will change many things, open new routes, help some cities and | hurt others. Let us try to figure our what it will do for or against our city—and then act accordingly. In addition to the lccal Chambers of Commerce, American Legion Posts and others, it seems a good § time for the Territorial Chamber of Commerce to “figure out what the norhtern route will do for Alaska and then act accordingly.” It is a certainty that the Territory of Hawaii has been most active in pointing out and publishing the advantages of the so-called southern route possibility.
