Gen. Albert J. Bow- | ley, Commanding General of the Ninth Corps area, and Col. John C. H. Lee, Division Engincer Portland, both of whom are nc the Territory, it was revealel at the weekly luncheon meetir the Chamber in Percy’s Cafe. Bowley and Col. Lee are to visit Chilkoot on their return from the Westward, according to plans an- nounced when they passed through here recently In the communications to President the officers, signed by Charles W. Carter, the advantages of having the Barracks located |v‘ this vicinity were ssed. It was peinted out that flying facilities for Army operations a ilable; thut Auk Bay, which has been used by the Navy extensively, is handy for Wi operations; the Signal Cof already is located here and, being Jocated, adjacent to Juneau, offi- ¢ cers and men would ha ivan- tages of adequate schools for their children as well as many other fa- cilities to be found in a center of population. About five years ago the Cham- ber advanced the idea of shifting the Barracks to Juneau but at that time little headway was made. How ever, since that time, it was bro out at the Chamber, a more fa able sentiment has been found toward making the transfer in order to take advantage of the facilities which can be found here. Guests of the Chamber today were Stanley Young, Chief of the Predatory Animal Division of the Biclogical Survey; George A. Mc Cleary, in the Territory in connec- tion with Works Progress Adminis- tration work, and the Rev. J. L. Webster, Pastor of the First Presby- Church at Sitke 2 ‘Waggoner of Jur returned from the i a brief account of his visit Outside.

Aligana to Hoonah, pick up Philip Joseph and A 115-2nd St. OPEN EVENINGS Telephone 723 Jack Hans Floe was then let off at Hawk Inlet and the other four pas- sengers brought on into Juneau Today Cope took the Bellanca (o the mouth of the Taku River with AN OPEN LETTER TO THE PEOPLE OF JUNEAU: The proposed widening of Seward Street from Front Street to Wil- loughby Avenue is of sufficient civic importance to warrant your know- ing the facts. You are entitled to a convenient, clean, safe street with suitable sidewalks from the docks to the business and principal resi- dential districts. I believe the people of Juneau want this improvement, and hgve taken the leadership in formulating a plan which I am proud to present to the City of Juneau. The question is—will the public benefit in propor- tion to the cost? The changes involved are as follows: The present alley will be widened to a total of 33 feet by taking property from each side of the present alley. The northeasterly side of the R. ]. Sommers Building is on the proposed street line. The face of the two-story Old Decker Build- ing must be set back six feet. Seventy-five percent of the space former- ly occupied by the Juneau Liquor Store must be vacated and deeded to the city, as well as a part of the shop formerly used by the A. E. L. & P. Company. On the other side of Lower Seward Street the face of Oscar Harri's Machine Shop must be moved back five feet, and the side of the two-story Juneau-Young Building set back four feet. Among the benefits are the following: (1) The street will be wide enough for two-way traffic, park- ing and safe passage for the Fire Department; Standard width sidewalks on each side, which it is rea- sonable to expect will soon be covered by marquees: (2) (3) Rendering two dangerous intersections safe for pedes- trians and automobiles: @) Relieving traffic congestion on Front Street by giving trucks and cars convenient access to the docks: Giving visitors to the city and newcomers a sightly entrance to the city: Increasing property values on all streets which it will serve, and thereby increasing tax revenues. The cost to the city for 3,660 square feet of land is $9,800.00, or (5) (6) $2.67 per square foot, which sum is to be apportioned between the own-. ers of the land which will be deeded to the city for street purposes. The changes above mentioned will cost at least this amount, but the prop- erty owners are willing to accept this price for their land and make these changes at their own expense. The price per square foot for this land, located in the heart of the city, favorably compares with the price paid for land recently sold on Seward Street at a greater distance from Front Street. Wooden sidewalks can be laid for an estimated cost of $400.00, which includes both sides of the proposed street, and concrete sidewalks ROYAL BEAUTY SALON ANN EARLY BARR—Owner-Operator BEAUTY BEGINS at the There they know just what your hair and you need to be at your best for every event on the list. | | 1 e ettt e e ————————————————— et can be laid with the usual two-thirds of the cost assessed to adjoining. property owners. If Willoughby Avenue is paved under the proposed PWA loan, this street should certainly be improved at the same time. If any new buildings are ever constructed on any of the street front, the cost of condemning it would be too great. Now is the time to make an improvement which has long been needed and which should be the start of a plan to widen streets wherever possible. : It is not a question of who benefits the most; it is a question of whether six thousand residents will benefit in proportion to the cost.
