Mayor Hendritkson Traces Juneau Progress During Past 16 Years

A full house of Juneau Rotarians heard review of Juneau's progress during the past Is years given by Mayor Waino Hendrickson at a regular meeting at the Baranof Ho- tel this noon
 Hendrickson's account of Juneaus progress since 1886 brought out that many facilities and Improvements |now taken for granted had their be- ginnings, arguments and troubles before final fruition.
 Some of the problems faced years ago are still echoed today and oth- CTS have been eliminated.
 In 1886 Allen Shattuck of the Chamber of Commerce called the City Councils attention to the acute auto parking situation on downtown streets. In 1889 Juneau citizens were concerned with the rumor in increased freight rates from Seattle and the council vas wrestling with ways and means to build new city and fire hall. The library committee was calling at tention to the disgraceful condi- ton of the city library.
 Big Construction
 The small boat harbor construc- tion was started in 1888; the Bar anof Hotel had it's grand opening; and a $142,000 bond issue was ap- proved to pave Willoughby Ave, 18th Street and Calhoun Ave, in addition to providing new sewers

Auditor Moore DisaIToWs Two
 More Vouchers

Two vouchers by the Territorial Board of Health totalling $785.37 were disallowed by Auditor Neil Moore this morning who said the vouchers were not properly drawn.
 Moore said the vouchers, both signed by Dr. c. Earl Albrecht, commissioner of health, were re- turned for correction before they were pulled"
 In the case of both vouchers, the auditors objection was that they were addressed to firms or organi- zations other than municipalities which were supplying matching funds.
 One voucher to the Juneau Health Council was for $53936; the other S246.01, was to the Juneau-Young Hardware Co.,, Inc, for work and material at the Hoonah Health Center.
 Moore contends that the one should have been made to the Ju- neau City Clerk and the other to the municipality of Hoonah. In each case, he says, it has to be shown that the money is used as matching funds.
 He cited an act by the legislature allowing the Territorial Board of Health to ". allot money here under to municipalities on a match ing basis, or otherwise in accord- ance with the financial ability of the municipality and seriousness of the need.'
 Both vouchers were for work and materials for the two health cent CTS. Dr. Albrecht is not in town, and the payment of the sums re- uuired by the vouchers will be held up until a correction is made, ac- cording to Moore.

steadily since World War II with
out any effort by President

there is no valid basis for the
assertion that vast sums oil
money can be saved by 'eliminat-
ing waste and Implications In the
Federal bureaucracy" Senator
Byrd cited the following examples
of what he called waste:
Government publicity, $105 mil.
lion a year: armed force.
advertising, SIS million; the
Government operates 1876, 900 non.
military motor vehicles more thar
a billion miles a year; the All

the pending omnibus bill to curb

testimony at the series Of open
meetings, are those to require
minimum sentences by judges. to
provide the United States Attor-
ney here with unit of five special
investigators to work on local
crime cases. to control bottle clubs,
and provide a paddock section to-
close UP those violating law.
Strengthened provisions toI
place private clubs under control
Of the ABC board here, were ap-
proved yesterday before the COM
mittee by District Commissioner

Attorney George Morris Fay.
Some witnesses yesterday ap-
proved this amended proviso. but

spots should be prohibited en-
tirely.s
How soon the committee may
be able to agree on provisions of
the measure and report it to the
House for action was uncertain
