We believe in the employment of a competent private citizen as Street Commissioner, who can perform his duties without political favor, and who will be directly responsible to the Mayor and City Council. It is considered desirable of combining the office of Street Commissioner and City Engineer, which if found practical will re- sult in further saving. If elected, the City's business will be conducted on a strictly Budget System, which Budget will be prepared and predicated upon the retirement of a substantial amount of the city’s bonded indebted- ness. Upon assuming control of the City management, we will publish a complete financial statement showing the City's finan- cial condition, and further pledge ourselves to publish a Financial Statement quarterly thereafter. Efforts will be made to re-finance the present Bonded Indebtedness, at a lower rate of interest, according to good business judgment and present business conditions. We favor the proposed Library, subject to ratification of the taxpay- ers, and financed by Federal Aid. We favor the continued maintenance of the present high efficiency of the Juneau Volunteer Fire Department. Police Department—We believe in an adequate police department, for the protection of our citizenry, and full cooperation with Fed- eral Authorities for the suppression of crime. Schools—We believe in the highest efficiency in our schools,—how- ever the administration of School affairs rests with the School Board, and all reasonable recommendations received from it as to teachers’ salaries, improvements and maintenance will receive fav- oable consideration. City Appointments—No pledges or promises have been made, nor will be made to any person seeking appointive offices. Boat Harbor—We favoer the construction of a Boat Harbor and will use our best efforts to secure Federal Aid in the acccomplishment of this dire need. Consideration will also be given to making im- provements to our present small boat facilities, to take care of im- mediate needs. If elected, we pledge ourselves to conduct the City's affairs with the same degree of economy as our own business. ing halibut boats arrived and sold | today as follows: 3 From the western banks—Thor, 135,000 pounds, 84 and 7 cents; Polar- | | s, 36,000 pounds, 8% and 7 cents; | 5 i ¥ : BT N ARy | 5.000 pounds, 8 and 7 cents; R ———— 25,000 pounds, 8% and 7| suffered an injury to his foot e: this morning.

Lo 2 2 d MOUNTED BIRDS 'ON EXHIBIT AT ~ LOCAL MUSEUM [Father Kashevaroff Recip-i ient of Specimens— | Eagle and Swan A fine collection of mounted birds, including one white swan and a golden eagle, has just been received by Curator A. P. Kashevaroff and is now on exhibit at the Territorial Museum. The collection, jointly contributed by Charles E. Brower of Nome, the Alaska Game Commission, and the W. E. Merrill estate, will be placed immediately in cabinets provided for that purpose. The golden eagle, one of the most imposing of Alaskan birds, is the contribution of Mr. Brower, veteran trader, and is a particularly fine specimen, according to Father Kashevaroff, who explained that, de- spite the testimony of uninformed persons who sometimes mistake the juvenile bald-headed eagle for the | golden eagle, this particular species is found only on the high mountains of the Interior. Also contributed by Mr. Brower are the white swan and four pair of | eider ducks, which were first re-| ceived by the museum, prepared for mounting, in November of last year.. Included in the group are the | beautiful king eider, with the dove- colored head, viola-blue on the cap and shading to greens and orange at the beak; the Pacific eider, with oroad white back and sooty breast; the spectacled eider, who has to be looked at to be enjoyed; and the, pact of the species. The females of all four family groups are speckled brown in color, meek in appearance and strictly utilitarian in design. The white swan is from the W. E. Merrill collection in Sitka, stands 31 inches high and is 27 inches from breast to tail. Somewhat subdued among its more showy fellows, but equally interest- ing from an_ ethnological stand- point, is the contribution of the Al- Grebe, which, with the others, will take its place upon the museum shelves. stellar eider, smallest and most com- ‘ CHILDREN FEAR NO SANTA CLAUS HERE “Parma, Ohio, Jan. 13, 1936. “Dear Eskimo: “We are studying about Eskimos. Do you play games with bones? “Please tell me how you make your harpoon. “What do you do in school? Do you have a Santa Claus? “I have a dog and he would be afraid of your dogs.” This was the result of an ex- change of letters which the second grade class, under the direction of Miss Mabel Monson, received from some of its unseen friends in l»Pumn. ©Ohio. Miss Monson’s class immediately got busy and wrote letters to the second graders in Parma informing them that they were as civilized here in Juneau as they are outside. To back their letters, a copy of The Daily Alaska Empire’s Devel- opment Edition was sent to the school in Ohio. The Juneau grade school class now feels it has at least enlight- ened a few of the many outsiders, who seem a little vague as to the way we live up here. ————————— FOREST SERVICE MEN OFF FOR KETCHIKAN The Forester, U. S. Forest Serv- ice flagship, left tilis morning for Ketchikan with Regional Forester Charles H. Flory, Administrative As- sistant Charles G. Burdick and Re- gional Forest Examiner W. J. Mc- Donald aboard. Mr. McDonald is re- turning to his headquarters in Ket- chikan while Mr. Flory and Mr. Bur- dick will attend to Forest Service affairs in the Southeast district. Mr. Burdick expects to visit the west coast of Prince of Wales Island and other points before returning. The vessel probably will be back |hete in 10 days or two weeks. H o f LEAVES HOSPITAL PRESBYTERY T0 MEET AT METLAKATLA Eleanore Ewing Will Be Present — Delegates Leave Here Sunday Delegates for the annual meeting of the Presbytery and Presbyterial of Alaska will meet at Metlakatla April 1, according to the Rev. David waggoner of the First Presbyterian Church of this city. Miss Eleanor Ewing, San Fran- cisco secretary, will be present at the meeting at Metlakatla, Mr. Wag- goner said. Arrangements are now under way | to assemble the delegates who plan to go to the meeting, and they will leave from Juneau next Sunday night. ANCIENT CAR HAS TWENTY YEARS OF SERVICE IN TOWN When it comes to old landmarks which represented Juneau 20 year: ago, Mr. T. J. McCaul of the McCaul Motor Company feels this city has overlooked a very important one. On old Hudson car, which has travelled the streets of Juneau for many years and which will celebrate its twentieth birthday next June, was bought new in 1916 by Mr. Mc- Caul to be used in & taxi service.
