HOLBROOK GOES TO PORT ALEXANDER TO
 SURVEY HOMESITES

To survey additional residential tracts at Port Alexander, and other work in the Chatham Strait dis trict, Land Classification Agent Wellman Holbrook, U. s. Forest Service, left here early today on the Ranger ", accompanied by Ranger Charles c. Burdick. He will be absent about two weeks, returning via Rocky Pass to exam inc some listed areas.
 The demand for homesites at Port Alexander has been surpris- ingly large, said local Forest Serv- ice officers. An area was elimi- mated there several months ago and divided into small tracts for home building. All of these have been practically taken up and It is now necessary to allot other tracts lying outside of the original elimination but adjacent to the town.
