URGES CONSTRUCTION OF GRIDIRON Need Is Urgent Members Declare—Airplane Men Ask for Large Sum Juneau's urgent need for a grid- iron for boats 75 or 100 f in length was emphasized today at the Juneau Chamber of Commerce luncheon when a number of local busine en cited specific examp- les of boats that were forced to be towed to Ketchikan or run to the south, partly crippled, after undergoing temporary repairs here, H. I Lucas was the first member of the organization to discuss the matter, when he said that Robert Donaldson expected to make an addition to the grid at the lower city float in order to dock his boat and make ne ary to her hull The latter asked Mr. would be possible for the city to extend aid to him in enlarging the capacity of the dock. C. T Gardner told the Chamber he had been asked to bring some adequate gized piling to Juneau to be used in constructing a drydock small boats. May Have Grid Mr. Gardner declared that if no construction was made boats would have an opportunity to lay-up for repairs, there would, later this, year, be a grid con- structed about one-half mile from Juneau, where the logs of Juneau Lumber Mills lay on the beach, as the sawmill and Sawy Reynolds boat found need of dry docking for overhauling ‘Warren Wilson, member City Council, said the council had discussed construction of a grid which would hold several at one time, to be located on t beach where the old pipeline ex tends to the low water mark of ‘Willoughby avenve. This mat- ter, he said, was to be discussed at the next meeting of the body. ‘That Charlés Warner would complete the drydock he started last spring, if the* city and he would reach an agreemeft as to priority rights on the property in the rear of the Warner Machine BShop, was announced by Judge V. A. Paine. As a specific instance of the need of a grid here, Wallis S. George told of the Cape Beale, Canadian halibut schooner in port today. - She was towed here with a broken tail shaft, and will prob- ably havo to be taken to Ketchi- kan for repairs. Airplane Offer Among the communications read at the meeling was one from Karr und Gregory, Seattle attorneys, addressed to V. A. Paine, who has been carrying on extensive survey . of air service possibilities from Seattle to Juneau. The telegram read in part: “Have clients financlally able to _extend #ir line with daily service provided the citizens of Juneau ‘subseribe $100,000 for 9 per cent preferred stock conmstituting only lisn on all latest modern cabin equipment $96,000 to be paid each of first three ships ar- in Juneau, the balance when ‘contract is secured.

Whittier told the club. committee on tourist advertising has been extremely active and ¢ no time sinee the visit of the late president Harding has there been such nation-wide interest i Alaska. “This has been 'brouglit about largely through the ‘erviser rare Manufactarers of engines, motor par! and ‘other equipment used by tho yachts will advertise theso features, as well as thé Torfitory.” Mr. Whittier declared the com- mittee on'the lyacht race was with- in its appreprintion limit’ of ‘ex penses, ‘and ‘sall” a ‘further” report of futufe croises to Aliska," ani participation ‘in ‘the same, would be fortheoming at an early meeting of the Chamber. Telle of Conventioh Among ‘the “visitors” introduesd at the luncheon today was Allen Shatt who feturned this weck from the Houston convention. He told of the trip on the Al Smith for, the | the | of (Iu'; boats ' special tralh and of the ‘hux ‘l'rnv\'lq in the Democratic conven- fnun city.

Ketchikan or Juneau A good natured argument as to the best elty in Alaska broughi much laughter from members and Ruests. Ralph Bartholomew, Ketchikan transportation man, who was present, declared Ketchikan was not in poorieemdition, contrary to reports given out in Southeast ern Alaska. On the contrary, he said, the First City is finan ) in good health, and though not as prosperous as it was two or three years ago, was good enough foy him, G. 8. Fleming of Seattle, o clared Juncau had made many im- provements sifee his last visir here two years ago, and bids fair to retain its title as the “Best and Biggest City North of 54-40." J.
