MaekINN0N TAXES OVER PRESIDENCY
 OF JUNEAU { OF {


 J. s. MacKinnon, owner of the Alaska Laundry, is succeeding At torney Norman c. Banfield as President of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce. it WIS announced at the meeting this TOO in the Gold Room of the Baranof Hotel.
 Banfield tenael cd his resigna- ton as president at the meeting of the Executive Board yesterday, but retains his membership on the Board.
 Discussion which had been sche- duled on the forthcoming bill in Congress which would make Alaska eligible for Statehood was postponed until next week. The report of the Chamber Committee on Statehood will be mimeograph- ed and mailed out to the members during the week, so all will have copies to refer to during the dis cussion.
 Main item of business today was concerning a letter from H. A. Hook assistant administrator for airports under the CAA at Wash ington, D. c. Hook stated that in his opinion it would te possible for a municipality to apply for aid in the construction of ad- ministration buildings even though they did not hold title to the complete airfield.
 Hooks opinion was that it would be necessary for city to have lease from a public agency holding clear title to the airport, for the necessary ground for construction. Then they could apply for aid un- der the provisions of the Federal Airport Aid Act.
 This implication was at var lance with what has been the con- sistent contention of w. P. Plett, regional administrator of the CAA at Anchorage. Platt has been urg- ing the City of Juneau to con- slider taking over the lease and management of the airport from the CAA, and has stated his opin- tion that it would not be possible for the city to obtain aid under the Federal Airport Aid Act un- less this were accomplished.
 After discussion, the secretary of the Chamber was instructed to write to MT. Hook in Washington, asking for definite clarification in the case of the Juneau airfield.
 It was pointed out that infor- nation thus far availble has shown that if the City were to take over title and management of the field there would be a considerable defl- cit which would cause a financial burden Juneau's city government would find difficult to meet.
 The Chamber today voted their approval on two bills which have been introduced into Congress by Delegate E. L. Bartlett. The first is a bill which would abolish the 8O-rod shoreline between tracts or claims in National Forest Lands in Alaska This would permit thc granting of contiguous patents of adjacent pieces of shoreline prop erty.
 Also approved was a b'n which would authorize construction and maintenance of an asy,im for the insane in the Territcdy. The Bill would appropriate the sum Of $2,50O,0O0 for the project Secre- tary Robert Webb was instructed to write letters to Delegate Bart lett stating the Chambers posi- tion on the two bills.
