It is properly a Rivers and Harbors improve- ment and must be reported on by the United States Board of En- gineers, he explained. As it is entirely a new project, before an examination can be mads, he added, authority must first be granted by Congressional resolution. The Delegate will in- troduce such a resolution as scon as Congress convenes and make every effort to get it passed dur- ing the next session. The plat showing the development proposed, he said, has been turned over to him by Gov. John W. Troy. No Crab Hearing The Alaska .Terriforial Chamber of Commerce has been advised by the Federal Tariff Commission that no hearing can be had by it on a petition sent by the Territorial organization asking for an in- crease of 50 per cent in duties on imported crab meat. The Commis- sion investigated this subject and reported on it to the President about a year ago and found there was no justification for any boost in the levies. - - wrey 1t suggested, however, that the desired raise might be obtained under provisions of the National Recovery Ac which empowers the President to raise duties on com- modities where increased costs due to compliance with provisions of the Act subjects it to injurious foreign competition. A communication was received from the Grand Camp of the Al- aska Native Brotherhood express- ing appreciation to the Chamber for courtesies and its co-operation and the co-operation of individ- nal merchants that helped make the recent annual convention here a success.

Walmsley o send its sympafhy and condolences to Leon Urbach, President of the Seward Chamber of Commerce, on the death of his wife this week in that city. % Guests at the Chamber today were W. C.

The {amount to be made available tc the Territory will probably be be- tween $150,000 and $200,000 anc that sum will provide around 1,- 500 jobs. As it is a requisite that the money be spent between De- cember 1 and February 15 fo stated purposes only, it follows that most of the work will have to be done in the coastal sections whers climatic conditions permit of the carrying out of constructive projects.
