While the Fairbanks group | asked for a referendum on the Reso- lution, the Chamber is already on reccrd as favoring improvements to the Alaska Railroad, and col quently a.referendum was deemed ! unnecessary. Steps wiil be taken to put further support behind the reso- lution, No action was taken on the Wran- gell Chamber’s letter relative to the route of the Alaska-Yukon High- way, since the Chamber is on record with officials in Washington favor- ing the most westerly route possible for the Highway. - PLUMBING, HEATING AT MANSION TO BE | RENEWED THIS YEAR Renewal of the plumbing and heating systems at the Governcr's Mansion is scheduled this summer under terms of a bid cail posted teday at the Federal Building.
