Instead, the party extremists have nailed down a doctrinaire program a Canadian outlet to the sea in that nortnern region ivill present an increasingly complicated problem. ; Since Skasway is the only accessible port it will lie necessary to-route all traffic to and from that jioint, a journey which under present conditions involves crossing 2i miles of Alaskan territory on the narrow-gauge White Pass & Yukon Railway. Although short enough, such a trip has the tame international complications as, say, that ietween Vancouver and Seattle.

"Rut because it serves no Canadian community of ny size, the Canadian government has declined to J-;eep the road open in winten. Between Haines and ihe border the thoroughfare is plowed by the notaries of the Alaska Road Commission. At the boundary, snowdrifts take over. Trucks are turned 1 iack. This causes much heartburn and indignation jn Alaska. ''But if a corridor along the Haines road were ceded by Canada to Alaska in exchange for Skag-way, the Americans would have a direct stake in maintaining a winter route to Fairbanks." Although Alaska would receive the greater Acreage, this must be balanced against the- acquisition by Canada of a valuable new port.
