PAGE TWO MORRELL TELLS LIONS CLUB OF ALASKA PROJECTS In a fast-moving one-hour ses- sion of the Lions Club at today's weekly luncheon meeting in the Baranof Gold Room: (1) Arthur D. Morrell dis- cussed operation of the Alaska Pub- lic Works Act, which he is here to| implement; sketched the structure | and history of the General Services Administration of which his branch, | the Bureau of Community Facili- ties, is a part; explained that he | really is a Colonel only on Thurs- days at meetings of the Reserve| Officers unit. | (2) Lester Marx and John Ar-| getsinger, two other members of his party were introduced. (3) Joseph T. Flakne of the| Department of the Interior, delaxlz‘d‘ the history of the Public Works| Bill and its passage through Con- | gress, and [passed out some lavish | compliments on Juneau's civic im- provements. (4) The regular tusiness of the! Lions Club was conducted, to the obbligato of roaring “lion- N by Tail Twister J. Gerald Williams. Morrell, Deputy Commissioner of Community Facilities, brought Lions | Seattle, RINEHART SON GETS WISH, MEETS FATHER; | | James Rinehart, pilot for Alaska Coastal Airlines, hoped Sunday the weather would be perfect so far as Pan American World Airways was | concerned, but that it would be | strictly lousy so far as his own ccmpany was concerned. Reason? James’ father, Dr. hart, was due in and Jim was due out to Sitka. Naturally he wanted to be here when his father arrived. He got his wish, not because of weather conditions. There just wasn't the business to warrant his taking oft as per schedule, so he was able to meet his father at the Gastineau Hotel Together, they flew to Sitka this morning, which is the son’s home. COMMUNITY EVENTS Tonight The American Le- gion in Legion Dugout, at 8:00 p.m November 22 — Rotary club at noon. November 22~ Juneau City Band in concert at 20th Century Theatre. November 22, 8 p.m.—CDA social up to date on organization and functions of the General Services | Administration, which was created | July 1, 1949. He enumerated the | agencies now included in GSA—— Bureaus of Federal Buildings, Com- munity Facilities and Federal Su ply; the National Archives, liquidation of the War Assets Ad- ministration. Morrell described the work of Community Facilities as “many un- rglated projects,” such as construc-| tion in the Virgin Islands, a dis- aster program, liquidation of cer- tain power projects under the old Public Works program, and services under the Advance Planning Law revived in 1947 and | “The most recent program ior which we have received authority and appropriations,” he said, “is for the Alaska Public Works Act “The Government,” he added, “through building up defense in- stallations and trying to stabilize the Territory, has trought in many people. This is fine, but it creatéd a problem which had to te met after a great influx of population. This is an illogical sequence. There should first be school, water and‘ sewage facilities and roads, then| people. “Finally,” detalled *Morrel,| “through your Delegate, your Gov ernor, municipal representativ and interested persons who never| have seen Alaska, Congress has | recognized the need for federal assistance both in overcoming pre- sent handicaps and in bufiding up| the economic stability of Alaska.| The President already has shown | his full support. “It is remarkable,” Morrell went | on, “that, in the closing session of | Congress, we were able to get even | half of the starter we asked, with- out any firm requests frowm the Ter- | ritory for specific public works. “We did, however, get the $1,- 000,000 in cash and $4,000,000 contract authorization to get the program under way. And we were assured that, when we go back with firm requests from Territory and municipal authorities, funds for a deficiency or added funds for| 1951 will ke available. | “We expect no lack of applica- tions,” Morrell added. “On the other hand, it looks as though we | would be flooded.” Both Morrell and Flakne, as well | as Lt. Comdr. Edward P. Chester, Jr, who introduced the speaker, gave great credit to Lester Marx| for passage of the bill. Marx, Spe- | cial Assistant to the Commissioner of Community Facilities, “took the lead in getting this highly import- | ant bill through Congress. He has worked arduously for its passage for three years.” Argetsinger, new District Engi- neer here, will establish the Alaska" headquarters in Juneau, starting immediately. | The only other guest at today’s | Sixteen in| at Parish Hall.
