The Twentieth Century Theatre
Apartment Building, which pioneer
theatre man w. D. Dave" Gross
laughingly says he has been building
on the "five-year plan" is expected
to be thrown open for business this
month. nj
Three years a-building, Gross has
persevered through persistent finan-
cial stress and today is watching
workmen put the finishing touches
on a structure that has finance men
marveling that a single individual
could complete it.
The theatre, 200 feet long and IS
feet deep from floor to ceiling with
out a single pier is shaping into
what might easily represent Alaska
finest theatre.
A shipment of 1850 seats is being
unpacked and set up, streamlined

the seat itself springs back of its
own accord. There's no cropping te

Up in the "a apartments Gross
has built to withstand the years
hardwood floors, hardwood paneling

apartments are two-bedroom apart
ments. All are served by automatic
elevator.
And on the roof in the penthouse
Mrs. Gross is preparing to set ur
housekeeping in the type of ar
apartment that every housewife
dreams of.
There are we don't know how
many rooms there, but we do re-

pink one for daughter Selma, blue
one for daughter Sonia, cream
one for Mr.. and Mrs Gross, one fol-
the guests and one for the maid

Just to top it off, Dave Gross, one
of those rare individuals who plans
for the future continuously, has left
space in one room for two nine OF
ten-year-old boys, and contemplates
putting high fence and tennis
court on the roof for the children.
And for Mrs Gross there is the
last word in electric ranges, sink
unit with electric dish washer, ano
over the stove, fan to draw of
cooking fumes.
In laundry room, there is an ell

type, two sanitary tubs, drying space

MRS. SMITH, ADMIRAL
GREGORY TRADE views
ON LIQUOR REFERENDUM

flee of the Governor, wish to call
your attention to the following let
ter-'the reason why / feel that
the system used in this state would
not be economically feasible in AL
aska. The very large distances and
extremely sparse population. to-
gether with infrequent and diff
cult means of communication and
transportation, would almost pre-
Glade any monopoly system such as
the one in Washington. 1t appears
almost obvious that the problem of
inventory control, the problems of
delivering liquor from the central
lied warehouse to retail stores, the
problems of supervising and audit
ing and the problems of transmit
ting funds accruing from the sales,
etc.
''First I would like to ask you
how long it was since you were in
Alaska?
This paragraph sounds like you
might have been here in dog team
days when it did take a long time
to get places-but since the event
of airplanes we do not find dis
tances great anymore. One can
very easily leave Nome in the
morning and be in Juneau in the
afternoon. There are no outlying
places that are inaccessible, nor
are the prices of planes prohibit
tive In fact all other branches of
the government find it not too ex-
pensive to transact busin ess by
that method-and business as lu-
crative as the liquor business could
surely stand that expense and still
make a profit for the Territory.

ington up as model in regard to

hensive study of all other states
