GODDARD IS
 PROBLEM OF LEGISLATURE .I
Committee Returning from Sitka Faced with Two
 Alternatives

Alaskas Legislators, who are scheduled to visit the Territory S auxiliary Pioneers Home at Goddard Hot Springs today, are faced with making a choice between two policies outlined in the biennial report of Filler Hansen, Superintendent of the Pioneers Home.
 The choices are these
 CD Build an adequate building and plant at Goddard to take care of the oveflow from the main Pio- neers' Home, at Sitka. or
 CD Abandon the recently-pur- chased Goddard property and build an annex to the .Sitka home to take of larger number.
 Legislators Have Look
 When they return here tomorrow, the IT Legislators who, made the Sitka trip will have looked over both the Sitka and Goddard homes and will have heard the recommenda- tions of Superintendent Hansen, who in his report appears to favor an enlarged home under one roof at Sitka.
 An annex to the Pioneers Home could be serviced from the main building and therefore be operated economically. Hansen says. He esti- mates the cost of such a unit at $l750O0. It would accommodate 75 men
 Such equipment at Goddard as has not already been junked will have to be replaced within brief time. Hansen's report states
 Whatever future use the Legisla ture decides to make of this location should be carried out with the idea of starting from the beginning" Hansen declares. Tn my opinion iii would make good location for an insane asylum or a tubercular sani- tarium. It has been my experience that very few old people are satis- fled to live under conditions of com plete isolation, such as prevails at Goddard which can only be ap- preached from Sitka over 16 miles of open ocean,"
 Cost Disparity
 Daily average cost for mainte- nance of residents at the Sitka home last year was SPA as against $187 at Goddard Daily average cost for food at Sitka was 25 cents and at Goddard 52 cents.
 The steamer North Coast on which 12 Representatives and five Senators went to Sitka is expected to return to Juneau some time tomorrow morning.
 The few Representatives in Juneau held brief meeting this afternoon and adjourned until 2 tomorrow afternoon. The Senate made holi- day of Lincoln's Birthday and is slated to convene at 4;30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
