HESSE RETURNS FROM INTERIOR: HOLDS HEARING Anchorage Presents Case for Removal of Pioneers’ Home from Sitka After an absence or official business, hearings for the Pioneers’ Home Commission and making arrange- ments for minor road construction, W. A. Hesse, Highway Engineer and Chairman of the Commis- sion, returned home today on the steamer Aleutian. Only one hearing was held in connection with the site for the proposed new Home, and that was at Anchorage. Fairbanks, Seward, Valdez and Cordova, did not ask for any hearing on the subject. Anchorage Presents Case Anchorage presented its case strongly, submitting data on costs of construction and maintenance. The community is offering a free as an inducement for the Ter- ritory to move the Home there. Cordova, through its Chamber of Commerce, has endorsed Sitka's claims for the new institution, Mr. Hesse was advised on his return trip. Other western and interior communities are apparently neu- tral. earings are planned for thr other communities beforz M. Hesse will be ready to submit the data to the ‘Commission. The claims of Douglas, Skagway and Sitka have yet to be presented to the Chairman. He hopes to pro- cced there in the very near fu- ture. on & Confers With Taylor Mr. Hesse went to Fairbanks to meet and confer with Ike P. Taylor, Chief Engineer of the Al- aska Road Commission, relative to the co-operative road program for the current season. On his return to Anchorage, he allocated $2,500 for expenditure on the An- chorage-Klutna road in co-opera- tion with the community which has raised some money lo- cally for relief of unemployment and is expending it on the road At Seward he inspected the Seward airplane landing field where some improvements will be| made this Summer. He conferred with Cordova leaders regarding the proposed airplane landing field | there, At Valdez he authorized| work on the Mineral Creek road which will also relieve unemploy- ment conditions in that section. Water Shortage Hampers A shortage of water is reported | throughout the placer mininz re- | gions of interior Alaska, Mr. Hesse said. This is so severe as sharply curtail mining opcmtmm on most of the districts and is causing some uneasiness over the season’s production and adding to relief problems. Tt has thrown large numbers of men out of their usual employ- | ment in many places. And un- | Jess there is considerable this summer relief work will be a more serious factor next Winter than it was during the past three years. —_———————— ATTENTION EASTERN STARS All Eastern Stars are requested| to meet at Masonic Temple 1:45 P.M.
