KETCHIKAN LOAN IS
 REJECTED BY ICKES

According to special dispatch to the Ketchikan Chronicle from Washington under date of October 28 Secretary Ickes, head of the Public Works Administration, eX- pressed sympathy with the plea of the city of Ketchikan for a loan to finance purchase of the utility properties of the Citizens Light, Power and Water Com pany, but confirmed his legal de- partment in the opinion that the law would not allow a loan to purchase the existing plant.
 In a conference with Council man Harry c. Mccain of Ketchi- ken, Secretary Iskes stated that he was familiar with the problem faced by the people of Ketchikan and that he hoped the city would be able to finance the project. Mccain said that the secretary was friendly and courteous.
 Mccain said that he had been advised previously by the legal department of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation that the only way in which the city could se- cure government finances for the utility purchase would be to put the deal through a bank which could post the city bonds as col lateral for an R. F. c. loan.
 The Public Works Administra- tion has frightened up on it's pol icies, insisting that projects must be designed to create employment if they are to receive favorable consideration in Washington.
