COUNTY TAX BILLS
WILL BE SPEEDED
BY ADDRESSOGRAPH

IL requires four months now
for County Tax Collector Howard
+. Wilson and his assistants to
make up tax statements, but that
time will be reduced to two
weeks when the office has its
addressograph in operation, Mr..
Wilson said today.
County commissioners have
decided to buy an addressograph
for $4,000, and it will be used by
both Mr.. Wilson and Assessor
Gandolfo. Signing of tax receipts,
Mr.. Wilson added, will save an
other three months in time.
Another feature of the address
ograph that its manufacturers
stress is that the records of the
collectors office are kept in
metal and, therefore, can not be
destroyed by fire.
Mr.. Wilson said he expected
the county will receive the adj
dressograph in 90 days, and that

pR0JECTS FOR FLOOD CONTROL IN ALASkA;;
 GOLD GREEK IS ONE

Request for preliminary survey and examination of Cinema Slough in Fairbanks and Gold Creek in Juneau has been made by Delegate Bartlett in appearing before the House Flood Control Committee which is holding hearings before drafting an omnibus flood control bill.
 It is believed these two projects for the control of floods will be included in the measure. The re- quest for survey of Cinema Slough anticipates strengthening of it's banks against floods. The survey of Gold Creek is desired for run-off and water-flow retardation and soil erosion cn the watershed
 The committee has also consid- cred the favorable report of the army engineers to strengthen the dike system in Skagway and re- stcration of the existing breakwater by construction of 300-foot exten- tion. If this project is included in the omnibus flood control bill when finally drafted. funds for carrying out the project must be appropriat- ed by Congress in separate bill Tn projects cost is estimated at S438,000 for new work and $10,00C annually for maintenance in addi- tion to that now required.
