Funds for a new statlon, which is badly needed here, are not now available, and will not be during | {the coming fiscal year, Col. Olm- istead declared. “We will do our best to give Juneau dependable | | communication, and that’s the most we can promise,” he added. He made the trip through the Interior with Gov. George A. Parks, visiting [Eagle, Circle, Fairbanks, and points along the Alaska Rail- road, including McKinley National Park. He went through the local plant and will visit other stations south of here enroute to Seattle. Radio Engineer Hoke, who has been at Skagway for three weeks installing new equipment there, will come here as soon as he completes his work in the Lynn Canal town. He will study the lo- | cal situation and make an effort to improve reception here. iy L MISS GRETCHEN D'LEO IS ENROUTE TO CORDOVA | | Miss Gretchen DeLeo, who has | been attending Mills College at | Oakland, (Calif., visited friends here |today while the Yukon was in port.
