The town nl Hoonah has a population of ap-| proximately 600 persons, and has long needed adequate additional housing facilities, the ANS said. In the fire at Hoonah in 1944, houses were destroyed, also ap- proximately seven stores. The stores are not being rebuilt under the Hoonah Project provisions, which| are only concerned with housing; construction The results from the new housing project will be watched with special | interest, Mr. Foster said, due to. the present high rate of tuberculo-} sis among Hoonah residents. Slough ed of the main sub-contracts the Hoonah Project was the in just behind Front mosquito-breeding hazard, the slough and surrounding swamp were 1illed in with 25,000 cubic yards of beach gravel. The swamp is the land site, now and sanitary, on which the houses of the project stand. The slough and swamp fill-in job was started by the CCC many years ago, Mr. Foster declared, but due to inade-: quate funds it was never completec. A full-time ANS 1 o, Miss Es- ther Bock, was recently transferred from Nome to Hoonah.

Besides the building of the houses and the clearing, grading penm, and drainage of seven acres of uml;m the project has been re- ible for: The building of everal new streets; installation of | a complete sewer system, a water system, and power lines; the laying of a mile and a half of water pipe leading from the settlement to dam, built before the war by the CCC, to impound a Hoonah water supply, and electricdl wiring of all homes, | Six-Room Houses The houses themselves are of concrete piered foundation, and are built of wood frame with red ce-| dar siding and shingles. They each consist of six rooms. Fire preven- tion was considered in spacing the structures 20 feet apart and in equipping the area, now five times’ that of the former village destroy- ed by 1iire, with an adequate supply of fire hydrants and water lines. The residents of Hoonah have built a $10,000 power plant for use in the new settlement and sur- rcunding homes. The last figure quoted as the overail cost of the project was $560,- 000. This quctation was given last May. Mr. Foster said the ANS of. {ice here had received no new quo- tation since that time. The project has been underway since clearing of the ground began in February 1945. At that time, Frank Crutsinger, Chief; and Paul E.

A commission of- , ficial said he saw “reasonable hope™ | for early settlement. { Enforce Agreement AFL and CIO union leaders, as well as government ofiicials who asked anonymity, said the Mari- (time Commission had made it ! known it would enforce on all gov- ernment-owned vessel any changes in working conditions agreed upon y east coast shipowners and the two unions which represent cap- tains, mates and engine-room of- ficers. Refusal of Pacific coast ship- owners to follow the eastern com- | panies in meeting contract demands for more “union security” remained {the principal stumbling block in the dispute. CIO longshoremen, striking on the lwe.st coast, were reported to be near agreement with their employers at San Francisco. Parties to the Washington pro- iccvdings believe that if the ship | ofiicers’ walkout can be settled, the | longshoremen also will end their !strike and the maritime industry Imay live in peace until next sum- { mer. Further negotiations were plan- ! ned today between the shipowners and the two seafaring unions in- ]vulvod in the walkout which start- ed Monday—the CIO marine en- gineers and the AFL masters, mates and pilots. Union Security Issue { The major issue under discussion ;in Washington has been “union security”—as other issues, including wages, were gradually being cleared ‘uwny CIO longshoremen striking {on the west coast were reported to | ke near agreement with their em- |gluyvn at San Francisco. The mas- | ters, mates and pilots has demand- fed a 30 percent pay boost; the marine engineers union demanded l'a wage hike of 35 percent and the longshoremen 33 cents more an hour to bocst their hourly pay to $1.70. The strike affected ports on all coasts. The squeeze tightened in New York when six non-striking \unions voted both to honor and \)uln picket lines.
