ALASKA INTERESTS AT
 THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
By Will. A. Steel

I
 hat the Anchorage and Ketch-
 kan public buildings were to be included in the government building program and that bids would be called for within 30 days, was quite misleadin No selection has as yet been an- nounced and so far as the Alaska buildings are con- cerned no plans have as yet been drawn, according to a statement from the Treasury Department. But it is alto- gether probable that the plans will include provisions for jails, although some of the peo- pie of Ketchikan think other wise The appropriation passed by Congress for buildings and other projects to stimulate en- ployment throughout t h e country, in the sum of $332,- 560,000, was ordered slashed ten per cent under the econ- omy act. For optional public buildings $100,000,0OO was provided n d Comptroller General McCarl informed Sec retary of the Treasury Mills the other day that this amount will be reduced to $90,000,000. Previous to this session of Congress a building program had been decided on and many contracts awarded. But there was still allocated, to be ap- propl.ated, S154,345,000, in which were included buildings at Anchorage and Ketchikan to cost $400,000 each. Under the new appropriation the Alaska buildings can be taken care of if the Secretary of the Treasury so decides. There is not sufficient funds to provide for all the buildings allocated but the Delegates office has kept in close touch with the Secretary and has urged that the Alaska buildings be select ed for construction, because of their urgent public necessity and also to give employment to the many unemployed now in Alaska, large part of whom have gone north from the states.
 For some days the subject of new construction has been con- l sldefed by joint department al committee of the Treasury and Postoffice departments and on September 9th the Del egate's office was informed that a report had been practic- ally decided on and was in the hands of Secretary Mills and Postmaster General Brown, who will decide which build ings are to be constructed. It was further stated that the dire need of employment in certain localities will be an important factor in making the selections.

Representative John McDuf- fife, of Alabama, has. been unanimously endorsed by the legislature of his state for Speaker of the House in the event of the election of Speak CT John N. Garner as vice-pres- ident. Mr. McDuffie is person, ally a fine gentleman, Dem ocratic whip in the House and chairman of the Economy com mittee. But his elevation to the Speakership, with it's pow CT and influence would spell further disaster to Alaska. Ii will be remembered that when Delegate Wickersham moved to increase the appropriation for the Alaska Road Commiss- ion from $354,000 to $650,000 MT McDuffie secured the de- feat of the motion and then sought to eliminate the appro- priation entirely, declaring it was ridiculous to appropriate all that money for roads in Alaska where there were only a few thousand white people to utilize them. And his efforts were defeated by only six votes.
