The examiners, after taking ample time for con- sideration of the evidence involved, have issued their report. We are naturally pleased with the returns because we feel that they should have the effect of restoring relations with our patrons—all Alaskans—from an unsettled to a friendly basis. It is the desire of the Alaska Steamship Company that these relations should always be friendly, and we are going to do our utmost to make this possible. We know there are features of our service that can stand improvement, and we are exerting our efforts to this end. The present company reorganization is intended to facili- tate such accomplishments. The progress already realized during the last half of 1947 in the occupation of the finest terminal facilities on the coast—the Alaska Terminal—the installation of radar equipment on our ships—the promotion of the improved packaging campaign—indicates our attitude and the direction of our energy. You, of course, are interested when rates will be reduced, and we assure you that reductions will be instituted as soon as that is economically possible. In the meantime we are endeavoring to effect every possible economy to bring this aim to realization. We feel that an atmosphere of cooperation and understanding is most essential to further progress in coping with the problems of transportation and we wish to go on record as fully favoring action that will stimulate such an atmosphere. We also feel that most Alaskans are in full accord with such a program and will help to promoteit. The rate hearing is past; the examiners’ report rendered; but Alaska still has its trans- portation problems. Now let us unite our efforts to solve them. Sincerely, F. A.
