Steam- er schedules will be better as far| as Juneau is concerned during the | coming season than in previo years, he added. This is to be made possible by the completion of the Wrangell| Narrows improvement project. It| will make possible more definite | schedules of arrivals of steamers from the south as tide conditions in the Narrows will not then be a factor in navigation as at pres- ent. All of the companies are trying to provide for daylight ar-| rivals or departures of their boats ‘at this port so that tourists on every steamer will have a chance to visit Juneau during the day- time. Mendenhall Glacier and the Glacier Highway tour out of here are being featured in rail and wa- ter advertisements, Mr. Howard said.

Shel- don, of Fairbanks, member of the McKinley Park Transportation Company, was a guest of the Chamber today. He said a 20 percent increase in tourist travel to the interior over the previous high record was assured for the coming season. “Eveything looks rosy,” he declared. Mr. Sheldon has been visiting | here and in Lynn Canal commun- ities for the past two weeks. He is enroute to Ketchikan to att=nd the Grand Igloo of the Ploneers of Alaska which convenes there in about two weeks. Not Omnibus Bill The appropriation measure sign- ed late last week by President Coolidge, and carrying funds for certain public works, was not the omnibus public bulldings measure as had been previously reported by a local newspaper, R. L. Ber- nard, of the Legislative Commit- tee, told the Chamber. The om- nibus measure carries the Juneau item. The other was a deficiency bill which carried funds to con- tinue developments in public works already in progress. ' To date 203 members have been enrolled in the Chamber for the current year, L. Kean of the Fi nance Committee reported. A to- tal of $4.717.50 has been pledged to the Chamber's funds for the year and this will be increased by subscriptions from both local and foreign sources. | —————a——— Garfield Says Planes Now Aiding Alaska in Development,Resources SPOKANE, Wash., March 2.— Discouragement of wild cat min- ing and promotion'of edncation of the public in the mineral re- .
