T. J. Tully, Commanding Officer of the Alaska Communica- tion System. Minimum essential communication to assist railroad operation is being maintained by ACS and The Royal Canadian Corps of Signal Radio, Despite the combined efforts of [ the ACS, the RCAF and the main- tenance créws of the White Pass | and* Yukon Railroad, it has been found impossible to keep telephone and telegraph lines between the two cities open. ACS headquarters in Seattle stated that the lines have been subject to a series of inter- ruptions resulting from heavy ic- ing of the lines between Skagway {and Summit.

C. J. Rogers, President and Gen- | (eral Manager of the White Pass and Yukon Railroad, characterized the storms as the most se in the railroad’s history. Icing sleet and driving snow which coated the lines as much as six inches thick |80 weighted the wires that the high !winds later tore down not only the |lines, but also the cross arms and| leven the 30-foot poles. | Todate all available repair and | maintenance supplies in the 1mmed- lijate Skagway area have been cx-‘ hausted in efforts to rehabilitate the lines. Additional supplies and \man power are now being sent to Skagway by ACS from Seattle, Ju- |neau and Ketchikan to help restore the circuit as soon as possible.
