Coffey and baby son and daughters Geraldine and Billie Bell were returning passengers on the boat, having spent the past two months in Howe, Texas, visiting relatives. Mr. Coffey is an en- gineer at the TB Sanatorium. The Chamber of Commerce held a meeting Januwary 21, at the Com- munity Center with an attendance of 23 members and two visitors. The main topic of the day was the con- struction of & new TB sanatorium in Southeast Alaska. The group agreed that all organizations should get be- hind the project and push hard, then argue over the site later. Of course Skagway is going after the sanatorium, feeling that the -city has much to offer in the way of sites and climate. President Polley made a strong plea for development of additional recre- ational facilities for the present staff of the sanatérium. Elmer Rasmuson gave a splendid talk on the Bartlett bill and also some interesting information on the Statehood question as he had found it in Anchorage and Juneau. The propoced tourist lodge on the Dyca Trail came up for discussion, the President having received in- formation that plans for the same will soon be submitted to the Cham- ber. ‘The project of the small boat har- bor, which is badly needed here, is well under way and has been favor- ably reported. The small attendance of the business men was deplored as it is hard for a few to do what would be fairly for all of the merchants and other men interested in the welfare of Skagway.
