COLD STORAGE
 ENLARGEMENT
 WORK STARTED
Million Pounds Capacity to Be Added to Local
 Freezing Plant

Carrying out the policy of the Juneau Cold Storage to enlarge it's capacity as fast as business war rants, work was started this week on additional enlargements to the plant. When the present con- struction program is completed the plant will be able to handle and store an additional million pounds of fish above it's present capacity.
 The construction work, now well under way, will take in portion of the present fish shed. Two large storage rooms, one to be Al by 55 feet, and the other to be 33 by 36 feet. will be built To handle the refrigeration of these large stor- age rooms another sharp freezer unit of 15,00o pound capacity will be added to the equipment of the plant. This will give the plant 6o,o0o pounds sharp freezer capac- ity every 36 hours.
 The building materials for the enlargement work, lumber, hard ware, sheet and granulated cork have arrived and an additional shipment is coming.
 Additional machinery and refrig- erating equipment for the new stor- age rooms have been ordered and should arrive in Juneau within the next two weeks. according to Wallis George, President of the Company The new equipment will consist of the latest type 521s ton York com pressor. which will be driven by a 100-horsepower General Electric synchronous motor. This will make the third unit of this size in the plant. Two similar units have been in operation since the Juneau Cold
 Storage started freezing.
 In anticipation of this enlarge
 ment, work was started last Decem-
 ber on making a rock fill under . that portion of the dock which will
 be covered by the new construction
 Close to 4.500 yards of crushed rock from the Alaska Juneau mine WIS dumped under the building for a
 permanent foundation for the great l weight of the enlargements to bt 5 added
 5 MT. George stated that the en. : largement would be completed by
 July first, and it is expected that
 all this storage space will be filleS before the close of the presen . season.
