Delegate Wickersham has been
carefully studying the effect, if it
could be accomplished, of extend
ing the Federal Highway Act to
Alaska. At present the Alaska Road
Commission is expending $300,000
and the Forest Service nearly one
million dollars yearly, in the Ter
ritory. It is the opinion of some of
the interested officials here that if
the Highway Act were extended to
Alaska, Congress would consider
the needs of the Territory and the
sum now being expended, and at
tills time the sum appropriated
might not exceed the amount now
being received, while the Territory
would be compelled to contribute
as its share possibly from three to
five thousand dollars yearly, as
well as all costs of engineering ex
penses and all maintenance of
roads after they had been con
structed through the joint efforts
of the Federal government and the
Territory. The Delegate has been
advised not to open up the matter
m the present Congress because of
the general inclination to decrease
''ll appropriations. The amount
agreed on by the Budget for the
Alaska Road Commission for the
ensuing year is $650,000 and it will
require considerable effort to have
the sum increased to the $800,000
that the Commission expects to
get.

In his annual report submitted
to the President by Secretary of the
Interior Wilbur, he states that one
of the great latent resources of Al
aska is its forests. Thirteen per
cent of the national forest area of
the United States is in Alaska, most
of it on the southern coast from
Ketchikan to Cook Inlet. A billion
board feet annually may be har- -
vested each year. Ninety per cent
of all production will be useable
for paper. Hydroelectric power sites
are abundant.
