" ADAPTABLE T0 Vlce President of Boat- building Firm on Fly- ing Trip fo Juneau cated in New Orleans, arr terday, on company Inspired by the Rev. bard, Mr. | trip, Mexico Alaska, where he great possibility for Landing Barges, which have played such a great part in the winning of the European War and furtherance |to victory in the Pacific. The Higgins Industries, one of the largest boat builders in the world, has many types of boats such as the | | Welded Steel Refrigerator boat, {however, the most useful to Alaska would be the landing barge. This boat would cut not only transporta- tion and shipping costs, but would |simplify the loading of exports and unloading of imports. As Mr. Rappleyea stated, “There |is no need for wharfs or even haul- |ing facilities for this boat as the him which would make store-door deliveries and pick-ups.” | The Higgins Landing Barge is a “natural” for shallow waters and | there is no need for fear of ground- ! ing, as this boat is amphibious and and discharge its load, he said. | "Mr. Rappleyea, on his feels is a big possibility and feels | Higgins Landing Barges would or individual business in trans- | portation and importing and export- ing. Leaving today for Seattle, he said, “I have enjoyed myself immensely and am leaving with a complete picture of Southeast Alaska and I am positive the Higgins Landing Barges can help further the ch-' mendous possibilities of Alaska. Mr. Rappleyea gave rein to his| hobby while in Juneau, putting in an appearance at the office of U.| S. Marshal William T. Mahoney where he entered into a discussion of fingerprints and other identifi- cation procedures with Deputy Mar- chal Syd Thompson. The boat- builder is a member of organizations dealing with the subject of identifi- ! cation. b = B ST German U-Boals | Are Surrendering LONDON, May 10—The Alr Min- istry says that British Coastal Com- mand planes up to dawn today had | sighted six German submarines in the act of surrendering.

Davis, Anchorage, land JakerCropley, Juneau. Robert | R. Harrop, Commissioner from Fair- | banks has been unable to attend the Juneau meetings. { Accompanying the Commissioners lon their Westward trip are: Gov. Gruening, Stanley A. Furman, Re- gional Counsel for the Federal Pub- lic Housing Authority from Seattle and Phillip R. Ruen also from the Seattle office. Both FPHA men were | |on hand at the Juneau sessions. It was decided that the Housing Commission will hold quarterly | meetings, with the site of cachl | meeting to be set separately. The Rev. O'Connor, spokesman, | prophesied a fast-developing future |for the agency, which is financed wholly from revenues from housing | projects under its direction. The increasing demand for living ac- commodations in Alaska will become | even more swollen with post-war migration to the Territory and is a challmae that must be met, and | which it will be the business of the Alaska Housing Authority to meet. For the duration, the business of | the agency will be to operate resi- | dence deveolpments already erected |and projected by the FPHA as war | | housing. At present, principal proj- {ects of that type are at Anchorage, | Fairbanks and Hoonah, with a de- velopment at Juneau seeming as-| | sured. Present projects are to be | turned over to the control of the | Alaska Housing Authority on July‘ 1 of this year. With the cessation of hostilities, a wider scope for the agency will be opened, with slum-clearance and the elimination of sub-standard housing as principal objectives.
