F. Mullen of the Faif Association and Secretary W. S. Pullen, not would Juneau be given a swimming pool but a’gen- eral recreation center would be in the structure, to include a rifle range. and for given for such a only established bowling alley skating rink It was estimated that about $25.000 would be re- quired to equip the building with the various facili- ties suggested lier estimates, on the construction of just a swimming pool in the city ran around $40.000. thus it would appear that if the Fair building de is carried through it would mean a considerable sa ing at the outset. In addition to what would be an actual saving in construction costs, according to the suggested plan the Fair building would be turned over to the for management with the provision that the Association could continue for the four days of each year. Under such an arrangement one of the most dif- ficult problems in connection with the entire swim- ming pool preoposal would be eliminated. Manage- ment would be centered in a responsible source— City officials. That is exactly where management of 4 successful undertaking of this kind should rest with public officials, either the city council or the Sthoo! board. Private management would face the impossible task of keeping a swimming pool going in this community of limited size and in face of com- _plq!n(s which are sure to arise. Under management by the City, the pool, or recreation center, could be kept operating just as any other function of the city ‘détivities, despite the “squawks” which we all know are inevitable. No one can please everybody. It would appear that at last a very definite and intelligent step has been taken toward getting a swim- ‘ming pool for Juneau and the men back of it are to be congratulated for a fine display of public spirit Fair to use it Fair AIR MAIL PROGRESS Alaska becomes a step nearer to regular air mail the result of fhe President signing Saturday the bill authorizing the Postoffice Department to spend up to $25,000 a year for air mail service within the Territory. Air mail service, long distances and lack of transportation, been badly needed to carry on Alaska business with greater dispatch and now it is to be inaugurated in from and to our due has long a small way. Of course, $25,000 is not going to result in estab- lishing regular air mail lines between the Territory and the States immediately. but it is going to create some additional service and it is going to mean con- nections to many of the outposts and feeders to the already established scheduled routes.

In May there were approximately 15,300 persons out of work, as compared to 35,000 for the corresponding month of 1936.
