feet-and the ice of spring and
autumn offered a serious problem
to the Alaskan engineering com
mission, which is building q large
wharf at Anchorage, Alaska. A
long flat. protected by Palmer's
point at it's farthest end, has been
chosen as the site of the structure.
The wharf will be 1900 feet long
along the shore, 400 feet from land
side to deep water edges, and 35
feet high at low water on the water
edge. Owing to the tidal changes
great height is necessary of the
face of the dock, but as the flat
runs on regularly graduated in.
cline short piles only will be needed
for the whole of the shore side of
the structure and this section can
be readily filled in behind a con-.
crete sea wall running through the
dock along the low tide shore line.

To
DRAW Teeth OF
ABATEMENT BILL
Proposal Would Make Neces.
sary Action BY Majority of
Owners or Residents

Amendments to senate bill No. TO-
generally termed the abatement by in.
junction law, are proposed by Senator
Pacheco, which friends of the meas,
ure claim will draw its teeth and
render it of little use as a weapon
with which to fight commercialiZed
vice. The amendments would take
from the bill the power of an indiyidu-
al citizen to act and make IL necessary,
where officials were dHatory or negli-
gent, to resort to the tedious method
of petition or securing signatures to a
complaint.
Section 2 of the bill, Us it was intro
duced, provides that where nuisance,
as defined in the act, is kept, main
tanned or exists, the attorney general
or the attorney for the county or the
city and county in which the nuisance
exists or any citizen Of said county or
city and county with the approval OF
the attorney general or the county at
torney may maintain suit in equity
In the name of the territory to enjoin
and abate the nuisance.
Senator Pacheco wcnld delete the
words ANY citizen anG substitute the
words "a majority OF the property
owners Or residents or property own.
ers and residents"
II believe the bill as introduced
gives too much power and leeway to a
single individual" SAID Pacheco this
morning. at seems to me dangerous
and as opening the door to the posi-
bility of undeserved attack upon a
property holder by some one who
might be irresponsible and misguided
and misinformed, even if well inten-
toned. to enact the bill as it stands.
With my amendments ] will vote for
the BILL -"
Friends Of the measure point TO the
fact that a similar law is on the stat
ute books OF 90 states and that it has
been found to work we'll and has not
been abused rs Pacheco appears to
fear it would be abused here.
