BPR ENGINEER EXPLAINS ROAD, SALMON CREEK Prospects Brighter Now for Getting Right-of-Way, He Tells Chamber There is small possibility that im- de at Sal- provements will be m mon Creck on the Glacier High betorc, at the eariiest, a year this coming June, but in the me acquiring a right-of-ws present time is cncouraginy, M. 1. Williams, District Enginzcr for the Bureau of Public Roads, explained to members of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce at their weekly. lunch- ecn today at Percy's . Cate. In 1935, a sum of $25,000 wq aside for improvements at Ir Creek, which would have inclu straightening the road and runnin 1L direct across the creek Morris Point to Shearer Point low the present bridge rou District Engincer said. A three-wa - time cfforts will be directed toward , which at A o litigation over property rig! At Sdlmon Creek resulted in absolute failure to get right-of-way, he said, but effort was continued until lasi year when the $25,000 was allocated to other work and at the present time no funds are available for the project. His last information, Mr. Williams said, is that there is but one party to deal with now in getting right- of-way and effort will be directod toward that end. The best that can be hoped for in the way of funds, however, he said, is in the 1939 fis- cal year budget, or a year from this coming - symmer. If right-of-way is obtalned, he continued, the Salmon Creek project: will be placed as the head, of; the list for the 1939 season’s work and he considers it the most important road project at this tin Mr. Williams peinted out that the narrow bridge and the curves at Salmon Creek are a hazerd to traf- fic and that he was vitally interested in making the improvement as soon as it could possibly be done. A. B. Phillips, letter to the Chamber, urging cor- rection of the existing road condi- tion, pointed out that aside from private traffjc two school busses, carrying about 100 children, cross the bridge daily and the temporary structure now in use iz a menacé to their safety. The Chamber turned the problem oyer to the Civic Improvement com- miltee for further action. Approval of the Executive Board's recommendation to ask the City for & [l time radio inspector in an ef- fort to improve radio reception and limit inferference was given by the Chamber and Charles G.

We know that, as a whole, we sell more liquor during these hours than is neces- sary to pay the cost of hiring help during these hours, especially when boats are in’ port, but the grief which it entails is not worth the small amount of profit which accrues to some of us most favorably located to receive this trade. crdinance will promote temperance and relieve us of a considerable amount of unfavor- able publicity which we receive, which naturally reflects upon us personally and upon other businesses which we conduct. If this ordinance is passed and approved, we feel that we shall be contributing valuable assistance to the Police Department, which has most of its trouble with intoxi- catéd persons at late hours, and, in return, we shall ask the Police Department to cooperate with us in apprehending all persons who bootleg, or assist in bootlegging, liquor during the hburs of closing. If we did not feel that the Police Department is competent and willing to enforce such an ordinance, we would not propose the same, for we cannot compete against bootleggers who sell liquor after the stores are closed, and we do not care to illegally enter into the sale of any commodity. | exulz:. ett’lmt when such persons are apprehended and convicted, they will be properly puni 4 We would. voluntarily close our establishments at these hours, but we realize that if we did .without the aid of a city ordnance and its enforcement, we would lose a large amount of our legitimate business through the closing of accounts because of our limited h of service, if the one other liquor store is allowed to stay open cighteen hours’per day. , Respectfully submitted, Juneau Liquor Company Gastineau Liquor Store Home Grocery Liquor Store Jim Ellen’s Liquor Store White Spot Liquor Store Pay’n-Takit Liquor Store California Liquor Store (Paid Advertisement) fifin&mfimlun||mmumtfimmn‘flmmunmmuui’umunm|mlmnmmuiiumummmmmunnut,‘niiameflmnnmunu (Continued from Page One) tn credits and involved de ion of one billlon four hun- mi"i*n dellars in gold reduc- Ts bank reserve requiremn which 2d4d another seven hundred fifty millicn dollars credit to re of national banks.
