Boyle, Chairman of the Transportation and Trade Commit- tee, to spend funds not exceeding the amount of $50 for the purpose of securing detailed information rela- tive to freight shipments by small boats from Juneau. | In pesponse to a request from the Engineer Corps of the War De- partment for the information on small boat shipments, letters have been mailed to 2ll merchants in the Juneau area requesting data on that subject, Mr. Boyle reported. It was suggested that funds be pro-| vided for the hiring of a man to se- | cure information that could not oth- erwise be obtained, and for any oth- | er expenses involved, and a motion was carried limiting such expendi- | tures to the sum of $50. It was agreed by the Chamber | that the subject of small boat ship- ments is very important at this time in view of the proposed small boat | harbor for Juneau. Portions of the report submitted to the Chief of Engineers at Wash- | ington, D. C., by H. J. Wild, Lt. CDl,,’ Corps of Engineers, District Engin- eer at Seattle, were read by Secre- tary Shattuck, including the esti- mated cost of the proposed improve- ment, which is as follows: Dredging, 375,000 cu. yds..$....112,500 ———— | enroute to Fairbanks to attend the Bulkheads, 1,620 lin. ft. 12,150 Breakwaters, 50,000 cu. yds... 25,000 Field surveys and inspec- tion e T 7,350 Total field cost .................. $157,000 District and Vision over- head, approximately 4 per cent HM & 6,000 Total estimated cost -..$168,000 While construction of the small boat harbor this winter as a relief measure has been said to be im- practical by the Government, Vice President Norman Banfield stated, it is thought that funds for a de- tailed survey of the project will be forthcoming and construction of the harbor improvement through regu- lar channels will probably follow within the near future.

Goldstein At the request of Mayor I. Gold- stein, who spoke at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon in the Ter- minal Cafe today, aid and assist- ance of the Chamber was pledged in support of the ‘proposed new City Library, and the Civic Improvement structed to coopérate with Mayor Goldstein to that end. In the ab-| sence of Allen Shattuck, regular| committee member, A. E. Karnes was appointed to serve on the com- mittee with H. R. Vflndm-L:*est,‘ Chairman, and Judge H. B. LeFevre. | Price of Lot Included Although preliminary arthitect’s reports indicate that the proposed building can be erected for $22,000| to $23,000, Mr. Goldstein said, the City has applied for a loan and (grant of $30,000. The cost of the| lot upon which the library will be erected may also be paid for by loan and grant funds, he said, and will not fall entirely upon the City, as formerly had been supposed. The | cost of a building site, and the cost of equipment and incidentals, added | to the cost of erection of the library | building will not exceed $30,000, Mr. | Goldstein said. | Favors Adjacent Plot [ Although no decision has been reached regarding the site for the| proposed Library, Mr. Goldstein expressed himself as in favor of the | vacant lot adjoining the City Hall‘ because of possible reduction of| expenses through heating the new | building by the plant in the City| Hall, and by combining the expense | for janitor service for the two! buildings. The space now occupied by the Public Library could be used by | the Fire Department, whose pres- ent quarters have become cramped, | Mr. Goldstein said. | FLYING PARTY FORCED DOWN, LACK OF AS Pilot Herman, Four Pas- sengers at Nulato, Fairbanks Bound FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Jan. 9.— Pilot Jack Herman, flying a North- ern Air Transport plane, and his party, enroute to Fairbanks from Akiak, missing since last Friday, arrived at Nulato yesterday, all safe.

Neither employers nor labor lead- ers make any predictions, but the tieup of coast vessels has so nearly paralyzed coast shipping that only eleven are actually in trade. Fifty-seven steam schooners and other small coastal carriers have been rendered idle, 23 of them as a result of crew demands for a 6-hour day in port, Others are idle because of lack of cargo, or because of obsolescence. Four deep-watér ships, all from the East Coast, are tied up here be- cause their crews want a West Coast agreement, which would give them higher pay.
