HEARING TO BE
 HELD ON LOCAL.
 PROJECTS SOON
Cotwals Calls Public Hearing on Rivers and Harbors
 Items Near Here.

A public hearing on the proposition 10 dredge Gastincau Channel. and the dinning of canals across the portage at Oliver Inlet and Hawk Inlet will be held here Friday, January 19, according to an announcement made today by Col J. c. Gatwals, Assist ant District Engineer, for the Alaska Rivers and Harborsr district. The hearing will be held at Elks Hall, said Colonel Gotwals.
 All persons desiring to be heard in connnection with these projects, or those having data to offer, shoull l be present at the hearing and will be given an opportunity to present their claims, it was stated The dis trict engineers expect to submit a preliminary report on all three projects sometime this spring or sum mer.
 All of these projects were sub mitted to Colonel Steese, who is head of the local board, several months ago by the Juneau Commercial As sociation and were presented to Con- grss by Delegate Sutherland last year, at which time the Board of Rivers and Harbors was authorized to make preliminary examinations and reports as to the desirablity of making detailed surveys and esti- mates. The data and information furnished at next weeks hearing will be made a part of the local boards formal report to Washington.
 Two other Rivers and Harbors items have been presented by Dele gate Sutherland to Congress for in sertion in the current measure. said Colonel Gotwals. One is for an ex- animation of William Henry Bay, where the Alaska Endicott Mining & Milling Company is now mining and milling. The second is for an exam nation of Portage Bay and adjacent bays on the Alaska Peninsula.

Lee lures were given in both the local and Douglas High Schools. No ex- tensive detailed research work was attempted owing to the pressure of other duties of the secretary The to keep alive interest in the Museum and Library was active ly prosecuted.
 Finances Not Extensive
 Fees derived from membership dues, said the report, are not sufli- cie9t to withstand the drains on he treasury. The Territorial Muse an aal Library Fund. from whica he Cusdtors salary was paid, has been exhausted and its sources are so lim- ite1 that it cannot be relied 1n for material aid in the future. The f. reneial report showed a balance of Sb6214 in the treasury, which, i5 said. is sufficient to run the institu- ton until some provision is nude by the Territory for it's upkeep.
 "The Museum has attracted almost the complete quota of passengers arriving at Juneau from the States during the three summer months" continued the report. Night arrival of many steamers, it was contended, prevented many desiring to do so from visiting it. A total of 2,697 persons registered at the Museum during the season, which, however. does not represent the total number of visitors as many did not register
 Needs of Institution
 The most important need of the Library and Museum. said the report, lis a safe place for housing and of the priceless volumes in the Library and no less priceless specimens in the Museum. I wish to impress upon the honorable mem- bers of this Association and the gen eral public of the Territory of AL aska that this incomparable Library and Museum is greatly jeopardized as it is now housed. The danger from loss by fire is great. This loss would be so great a magnitude, not only of the intrinsic value of the books and specimens, but from the fact that were these priceless ar ticles lost, the Territory would never be able to replace them" Space for both Library and Museum, it con inues, is very inadequate. Lack of funds not only impairs upkeep and but prevents the acqui- l
 Additions of ethnological speci- l mems from Southeastern Alaska are urged as being of prime importance to complete the representation.
