Planning Of Alaskan Ports by Paul Page Whitham. This 1916 government-commissioned study, prepared for the Department of the Interior and the War Department, analyzes how Alaska’s growing port system could be planned and managed to maximize efficiency and reduce terminal costs. It argues that harbor lines established by federal authority should be complemented by broad, unified planning for backshore development, and that uncoordinated private growth yields a haphazard layout. The work defines marine terminals as integrated complexes of docks, rail yards, sheds, warehouses, and equipment, and contrasts transshipping ports with commercial and industrial ports, stressing the need for a belt-line or marginal railway to connect water-front facilities with inland areas. Whitham examines factors such as deep-sea terminals, local shipping, and industrial waterfronts, and advocates joint action by federal, territorial, and private interests. Through hypothetical cases and port exemplars—New York, Buffalo, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles—it demonstrates the advantages of prearranged development and outlines procedures for planning, permit control, and land-use coordination. The appendix discusses port-terminal problems and the importance of terminal organization to lower handling costs.
