tremendous strides made in bus
transportation during tha last few
years, bringing the passenger ear

'with the nation’s leading transpor

doubtedly will show a big increase
in the number of passengers car

An important trend of bus de
velopment, a fairly recent one, is
indicated by the scale on which
electric rail lines are purchasing
and operating motorbus equipment.
A record along this line is believed
to have been established by the
Pacific Electric and Los Angeles
railways in purchasing 81 White
busses in a single order. Fleets
equally large are operated by in

Included in the party aboard the

ranch owners and business men of
California, and ->J,1leir families.
"The object of our personally con
jifueted tripe to Alaska this year i.
to get (lie great -wealth of Southern
[California in totieh with I lie great
' prospects and undeveloped wealth of
|Alaska,” said Mr. Hayes. 'Our lira',
party, consisting of ten people, pass
ed through Juneau, northbound on
the Alaska, JiStKIS, and will return
on tho Alameda* duo south at Ju
neau, July lit. Our second party,
consisting < f 2d people enroute to
the Valley of Top Thousand Smokes,
passed through Juneau on the Ala
meda July 10 and will be in the
Valley practically n month. This i
the only trip from a tourist stand

to penetrate tho famous Valley, se
little known to the world.”
Last Trip Tliis Season.
Tjis present irlp will be the la.-1
this season Mr. Mayes said. How
ever, many tourists, travelin.tr alone
or in small parties have been booked
to the Westward and return to Ju
neau for a trip to Atlin and Daw
son, using the Katebeth service from
Juneau to Skagway.
“In this way we have favored Ju
neau with many extra day stops, of
considerable of our business,” .said
Mr. Hayes. “Next year the Travel
Service Bureau intends to cater more
to the Alaska business titan it has
this. We estimate that approximate
ly 1,000 people will be sent north
next season .oil a tour of Alaska.
"In the city of JUs Angeles Ibis
year at least 2,000 people have been
booked for various Alaskan trips. It
is estimated that approximately 4.
000 people have been unable to
obtain accommodations for trips to
the North.
Fine Treatment on Ship.
"The wonderful treatment our
party has reeeivod from the officers
of the steamer Northwestern has
done much toward making the tour
a successful pleasure In all my ex
perience in travel 1 have never|
known a bettor staff of men, in their
treatment of (lie passengers.”
-Mr. 11 ayes said that cooperation
of the cities ot Alaska for publicity]
In the States should bo siren con-!
stderable thought.
"If the cilhs of Alaska would
group together and sew out one!
general booklet to lie distributed '•
in Southern California and other;
prdnts along the coast and in Uto
States it would be a splendid aid!
in turning the tourist toward the1
North. My idea is to sell the round
trip to Hie farllierest point North]
alp! In that way giving each city an!
Opportunity to have a short time of)
