GREAT BENEFITS
FROM VISITATION
_
Governor, Back from Accom
panying Presidential Party,
Sure of Results.
Lasting good and material benefits
■will accrue to Alaska from the visit
of President Harding and his Cabi
net members which came to an end
last Sunday at Sitka, declared Gov.
Scott C. Bone, who accompanied the
Presidential party throughout the
trip In the Territory, joining him
when the Henderson made its first
stop at Ketchikan and leaving It
gn hour before the transport sailed
from Sitka Sunday evening.
"I am proud of the manner in which
the people of Alaska met and greet
ed the President, Mrs. Harding and
Other distinguished visitors," said
the Governor. "During the entire
two weeks trip and the many stops
the party made there was no un
toward incident to mar the visit.
Everything and everybody was as |
fine as could be and we can k>ok i
back on the occasion without a sin- j
gle thing to regret,"
Not a Junket Trip
1 HU II 1(1 Ul V»*w * • ' — - r * |
was not In any sense a junket.
Its members, from the President
down, were In Alaska looking for
information, to get some information
about conditions and get acquainted
with its people and their views. The
object of the trip was accomplished
in a large measure. In fact as well
as the time as the party's disposal
would permit. The President and
his Cabinet advisers, said the Gov
ernor, are returning to Washington
with very definite ideas about the
SO-called Alaska problems which
have had widespread publicity in the
past. Gov. Bone Is very confident ]
that the Administration will use this
knowledge to aid Alaska In any way
possible to do so by legislation and
administration and recalled the prom
ise of the President to this effect.
Will Be Slow Process
Although this aid Is sure, even
with it. the Governor said that Alas
kans must not expert an overnight
‘transformation. Development of the
.Territory's resources and the upbuild
ing of Industry, he reminded, are the
fruits of hard work, advancement
coming through certain evolutionary
stages which are necessarily slow.
There will be some changes in mat
ters of administration to facilitate
Mturpl processes of development as
the result of the Presidential visit,
he said, without Intimating just what
might be expected in this respect.:
These changes will allow greater in
dividual initiative and aid In bring
ing about more unrestricted develop
ment of resources.
"We are too close to it in Alaska
to realize now Just what it meant
to have the President and three of
his Cabinet officers spend two weeks
In our towns and homes, but our
children and our children's children
will speak of it as an epoch in the
Territory's history," said the Gov
ernor. In this visit Gov, Bone real
ized one of his greatest desires, en
tertained since taking office as Gov
ernor of Alaska. Since he came
North he has not wavered in his
faith that President Harding would
come and see for himself something
**r the inat Amorfmn frontterland
Exhaust* Mrs. Harding
President and Mrs. Hardin* met
and shook hands with hundreds of
Alaskans and talked with everyone
as opportunities presented them
selves. Mrs. Harding failed to at
tend but one public gathering at
which the President appeared, that
at Fairbanks Her enthusiasm dur
ing the early days of the trip was
so great that she overtaxed her
strength, not fully recovered after
her illness last winter, and she was
physically exhausted when she reach
ed the Interior metropolis. It was
impossible for her to have made the
trip out over the automobile road to
Chltina, although she was sincerely
tleslrious of making it. he said. This,
tie aided, was the sote reason for
t^e abandonment of the highway
part of the trip. She was much
rested when the Henderson arrived
at Sitka and it was hoped her
strength would be entirely recovered
by the time the transport reached
tpe States.
The members of the Cabinet held
public hearings at every point where
Stops were made, said the Gover
nor. They listened to expressions
<gf Alaskans' views on every ques
tion brought before them and really
got valuable information which will
be helpful In dealing with Alaskan
matters coming under their Juris
diction.
The Governor returned last night
from Sitka on the launch Hellan
thus. He was busy this morning
on a mass of correspondence and
business accumulated since his de
parture on July 4th, to meet the
Presidential party.
Delegate Sutherland, said Gov.
pone, left the party when it reached
Seward inbound. He took the Starr
far some point on the Alaska Pen
insula where he expects to join
Senator Wesley L. Joones, Congress
