Alaska Now on Studeba-
ker Map.
By the simple expedient of a bold,
bine-penciled line, the entire territory
of Alaska has been annexed to the
commercial realm of the automobile.
Within a short time residents of the
territory will be favored vith a real
automobile garage and salesroom,
their first intimation that even the
Arctio Circle is not to remain longer
without civilization's most recent
development in land transportation.
The annexation was a feature of a
recent gathering of Studebaker branch
managers at headquarters in Detroit.
It was brought abont bv A. H. Brown,
of Portland, Ore., who has charge of
the Corporation's wholesale bnsiness
in the Pacifio Northwest. '
Mr. Brown asked anthoiity to place
Studebaker agency with a man in
Juneau who had been importuning for
some time by letter and by a personal
visit i
"Go ahead." answered Sales Man
ager Benson. "Go as far as yon
like," and he walked over to the big
map that hung on the wall, showing,
in solid, blue lines, the territorial
limits of the varipus branches.
Around the territory he added the
heavy line that plainly answered the
whole question, placing a tract of
more than 500,000 square miles under
the jurisdiction of the Portland
branch.
Mr. Brown emerged from the con
ference highly elated.
"I'm now the boes of the biggest
territory in the home organization,
be remarked. "It may not be famous
for its asphalt and macadam but mark
mv words. I'll put eight or ten cars
into Juneau, this year and sprinale a
few more along the coast. They'll
multiply as roods are built and they'll
themselves be the most influential
factors in speeding the time when
the motor car will replace the dog
train as the medium of independent
transportation in Alaska."
Mr. Brown is seriously considering
a trio into his new territory, during
the coming; summer. Some of the
extreme northwest baa already been
penetrated by a Studebaker car which.
several months ago was driven from
Soattle to Hazelton, winning thereby
the trophy offered by the citizens of
that town for the first oar to enter
by the overland ronte, There are
several cars in Hazelton now and
Alaska proper probably contains as
many as six or seven, maintained by
private individuals and bought in 'the
States."
