Town Council Proceedings

The regular monthly meeting of the Town Council was held in the Town Hall Thursday evening. The Mayor and all the councilmen were present. Miss Liberty Wor- den acted as clerk in the absence of her father who was unable to attend on account of illness. The usual routine was gone through and in addition thereto several matters were considered under the head of new business.
 Councilman Nussbaumer called attention to the disgraceful situa- tion that exists regarding the granting of homesteads in Alas ka. He stated that even though the settler be an ex-service man his chances of eventually obtain ing patent are so uncertain as to discourage him from exercis- ing his homestead rights in Alas ka. The Mayor appointed Mir. Nussbaumer a committee of one to draft resolution to be sent to the attorney general setting forth the urgent need for a change from the present system which is surrounded with so much uncer- tainty as to be of little or no value.
 A lengthy communication was read from Charles H. Flory, Dis trict Forester. MT. Flory had read in the Stroller's Weekly an article copied from the Wrangell Sentinel regarding the protest by the Town Council against large islands, such as Vank's island be- ing used as a fox farm. Mir. Flory assured the Council that there was no danger of Vank's island being leased for fox farm ing purposes. A communication on the same subject was read from E. P. Walker of the Biologi- cal Survey.
 On motion a committee was appointed to take the necessary steps to have the boundary of the town enlarged to include that area within the space between the present boundary and a line drawn from Shustak Point to the extreme northwest end of the present limits.
 The clerk reported that the fol- lowing cablegram was sent to Mrs. Donald Campbell at the time of the death of her husband:
