Continued from Page D $90,0O0; construction of curbs, gutters and sidewalks to cost an estimated $9O,OO0; construction of extended sewer lines and a storm sewer to cost an estimated $27O,O0O; development of a water system and extension of present water lines to cost an estimated $150,000; grading, surfacing and extension of the Palmer airport to cost an estimated $10O,00O; construction of additional grade and high school buildings to cost an estimated $8OO,O0O; construc- tion of housing for Federal en- ployes to cost an estimated $8OO,OOO.
 This list was submitted to MT. McGinty, together with a letter which stated that Palmer failed to meet the first condition of public works program, since the city has not been incorporated. However the letter set forth that there have been a number of serious suggestions that it should be incorporated" and asked that the city be given all considera- tion possible under the circum- stances.
 MT. McGinty's reply to that letter, reporting that a Federal building and some of the other proposed projects were not pos sible under the program, repeat ed the condition that the public works program could be under taken only in incorporated cities.
 However still another wire in regard to the subject was re- ceived in the Valley last week, in which the Alaska Housing Au- thority reported that a bill had been submitted to Delegate Bob Bartlett which calls for Con- gressional grant of funds for the construction of permanent fam fly dwellings in the territory.
 This wire requested specific information as to the estimated increase in population since 1889, estimated increase in new homes since that time, estimated pres ent shortage of family housing units and how many heads of families unsatiSfactorily housed are either veterans or Federal employees.
 MT. Maze and MT. Irwin, work ing together completed an un- official census of the city of Pal mer and wired the information on Thursday to Alaska's gover- nor Ernest Gruening, now in Washington, D. C.
 The Chamber of Commerce awaits further official informa- tion before proceeding further in the matter.
 However MT. Maze, Chamber president, was unhesitating in expressing the hope that Pal mer will take proper steps to meet the stipulations required for the program before it is too late. It is believed Palmer's school and airport both would receive early attention under the Alaska Public Works Program

One of Washingtons staunch Re-

when the old C. g. o. Canal was q

drawn streetcars travelled the city's
streets, Mrs. Wingfield said.
Mr.. Eaglen had told her he was

Scientists Seek Cause
OF Outbreak Of Fever,
Cramps in Southeast

Scientists are working in path
illogical laboratories here to find
the source of an undiagnosed
malady which has afflicted more
than a score of persons in the
Southeast section.
Cause of the outbreak has not
yet been found. according to DR..
James G. Cumming, director of the
Health Departments division of
preventable diseases.
More than 20 persons have been
treated at Providence Hospitals
emergency room after complaining
of cramps, fever, sore throat, head
aches and some symptoms Of grippe,
the Health Department said. Some
victims have diarrhea.
Food Ruled Out as Cause.
DR.. Carl c. Dauer of the Health
Department, assigned by DR.. Cum
ming to investigate the situation,
visited the hospital on a report that
food poisoning had been suspected.
Food was found not to be the cause
of the trouble, but the source still
was a mystery today.
The symptoms included a fever
which ranged from 100 to 104, DR..
Cumming reported.
Providence Hospital nurses and
doctors became victims of the same
trouble, DR. Cumming said, after the
first patients had appeared at the
emergency room from the same gen.
eral Southeast section.
Other Cases Reported.
Private physicians in Southeast
also have indicated they had sew
eral such cases.
Health Department officials said
the outbreak was systematic infec-
ton"
Asked if the malady could be
called intestinal Influenza one
department physician declared:
There is no such thing as intesti-
hal influenza. Those words don't
mean anything"
A physician at Providence Hos
pital said few cases are hospitalized
at the institution. but most people
afflicted with the malady are at
home
Called Nothing Unusual"
He characterized the situation as
nothing unusual" and said the
malady was similar to the intestinal
trouble, with symptoms of grippe
which afflict many persons each fall
Reports have reached Providence
of somewhat similar cases in other
sections of the city, he said.
Patients usually get over their
troubles in three or four days and
suffer no bad after effects, the doc
tor added.
Clinical pathology studies are
being made in the Providence labora-
tory. he reported. but so far no
definite cause has been found. The
physician said it is generally be-
lieved to be a virus disease.
