Special to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. WASHINGTON. Jan. 16.—Development of the Matanuska coal field by the Navy at the direction of Congress is proceeding so satisfactorily that officials expect definite decision will be reached by spring as to whether there is a dependable supply of coal in Alaska for the Pacific fleet. A report of the progress made in the month of November by the Navy Alaskan coal commission, which has just been received by Secretary Penty. shows that at Chickaloon in the Ma’tanuska field, and at Coal Creek, where mine operations still are hardly more than In the first stages of development, the average daily output is more than twenty-five tons. At Chickaloon to date more than 6,000 tons have been produced. FIGURES INTERESTING THOUGH MEAGER. The meagerness of the figures are In terestlng in connectinon with the navy needs of the Pacific Coast, but the Navy experts on the ground point out that comparisons at this time ure unfair because of the pioneer, stage of the development. During the last fiscal year thg issue of coal to all Pacific stations was 814.315 tons. Deducting 25.000. the amount used by the battleships which have been transferred to the Atlantic fleet to be replaced on the Pacific by oil burners, 289.315 tons is the estimate for the current year. At Chickaloon, the experts estimate the Navy has 300,000 tons of coal in sight with the amount ultimately available au unknown quantity. At Coal Creek the possible extent of the coal deposits Is fixed at more than 30.000.000 tons. King River, an area not opened up has three beds ranging in thickness from 3 to 7 feet, while Anthracite ridge, another section not thoroughly surveyed contains one bed of anthracite 38 feet thick and other exposed veins of bituminous coal. There is a big supply also in the Bering field available if tests to be made next summer indicate a grade of coal complying with Navy requirements. COST RAID DOWN AT NAVAL BASES CONSIDERED. With the supply assured at the mines in Alaska the other question the commission and the Navy Department is endeavoring to answer is the comparative cost of Alaskan coal and West Virigian and Pennsylvania coal. Pennsylvania and West Virginia coal costs $13.55 per ton laid down at San Diego. Tiburon. Bremerton or Pearl Harbor and $19.05 to $21.25 laid down at Tutuila Guam and Cavite. Because of reduced freight rates, effective in October these figures have been reduced $3 per ton. Matanuska coal delivered In shipping board vessels would range several dollars a ton higher laid down at these Navy stations, but officers say a Navy collier can carry the coal from Anchorage, Alaska, the tidewater terminus of the government railroad to Puget Sound for $3 a ton while the cost to the Philippines would be $7.20, the figures paying the operating costs ouly. Military considerations and the time element, however, enter largely Into the Navy’s calculations. In case of accidents or disaster to the Pan-American canal locks thirty-seven days could be saved In the shipment of coal from Alaska to Pacific stations over coal shipped from Hampton Roads. It is pointed out that an Independent supply on the Pacific would prove of great value to the national defense and the military advantage in time of war would lie worth milliens of dollars. —Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.
