N YOREK, Feb. 13.—(Special) Wildes of Juneau, a representative of the New York Life to and Ancho industry, that power treble the pr M railbelt district within the year. Improved transportation in roads and airports and storage facilitie: for marketing will play an import- ant role in agricultural development | in the interior. Population Grows Flakne look: findings of scien- tific research groups at the Uni- versity of Alaska and the military installations in the Territory to show a definite effect in commerc- ial value in Alaska. Alaska is obviously to be a train- ing camp for the Armed Forces and the Territory can look to the mili- tary as a permapent Jnstallatior providing a considerable increase in population. Flakne is enthusiastic over the| tourist possibilities in Alaska. Hous- | ing with adequate hotel and Ic de | accommodation will bring a r round continuous growth of tourist trade, he said. Alaska is a winter wonderland as well as a beauty spot in the summer months and should | be a year-round tourist attraction, he declared. Flakne pointed out that other places that attract the tourist trade have disadvantages of weathe { certain times of the year and ve ous other minor handicaps he said, everyone ignores ther that is what should be done in Alaska. More persens die of sun- stroke than freeze to death and more people suffer from sunburn than from frostbite, he said Flakne suggests that interested branches of the goyernments of Canada and the United States get| together to plan means for pleasant and delightful travel through Brit- ish Columbia, Alaska and Yukon Territory. Aids To Tourists He cited as a few aids for travel- ers, as the establishment of a credit card by oil companies such as is in effect in the States and Canada, except Alaska and the Yukon Te: ritory, shelter cabins on the hig n-} ways, a telephone booth every five miles along telephone line sections, and roadside camping areas equip- ped with fireplaces which would eliminate fire hazards. As well as serving travelers over the highways such areas would afford camping spots for residents. Winter weather comfort kits would give added se-| curity and aid to the traveler over the highways in the winter months. They could be provided by proced- ures similar to those used in fur- nishing cooling kits to travelers in the desert areas in the southwest, he said. Progress In Juneau Flakne said Juneau can well be proud of its municipal airport, paved highway and city streets and the building construction in the city and along the highway. He said the building progress in the Juneau district as well as in the interior is outstanding to one who views it after a year's absence.
