Sanitary Unit
Budget Tops
S25 Million

Expenditures totaling $685.
440 are forecast by the Washing
ton Suburban Sanitary Commits
sion in its 1856 budget, tentatively
approved by the Commissioners
pending public hearing Deem
Der 16.
The estimate of expenditures.
which includes 1884 ,259 for bond
interest and redemption in the
coming year, is approximately
100000 less than the 1855 budget
estimate. This is cue to an an
ticipated decrease of about So
million in funds for capital con
struction, which is largely off
set by an increase of SIG mil,
lion in all other costs.
Commission officials explained
that the jump in the cost total
is a result of two major increas-
es; interest and redemption of
ponds. which is S752, 1886 above
last years figure, and contribu-
tons to construction costs, which
is $672,595 more than was esti.
mated for 1855.
The budget anticipates that
construction projects amounting
to SD, 137,499 of the expenditure
total will be financed by bond is
sues, and the remainder, 1854
941 of operating expenses and
debt service, will be paid out of
operating revenues.
1t is estimated that these op-
Grating revenues, including the
income from water, sewer, house
connections, front-foot-benefit, ad

disposal charges, will amount to
Sl2,271, 961, leaving an anticipated
surplus of $457020.
The budget contemplates one
change gin rates, an increase in
the residential front-foot-benefit
rate from IS to % cents per foot
This applies to both water and
sewer front-foot-beneflt charges
but will be assessed only against
those properties benefited by con
struction completed in 1855. All
prior front-foot-benefit charges
remain unchanged and may not
be increased during the life of
the bonds issued to finance those
extensions.
The reason for this increase,
it was explained, is that the wa
ter and sewer extensions com
pleted in 1855 were financed by
25-year rather than 30-year bonds.
This means that the property
owner will pay little more each
year but his payments will be
completed five years earlier and
his total payments will be re-
duced by about seven percent be-
cause of decreased interest. This
amounts to an estimated total
saving of about S432 900 to all
properties affected.

Young Men
Must Register.
Colonel Says

Calling attention to the fact
that failure to register is a viola.
ton of law and makes the delin-
quent liable to penalty, Col. Henry
c. Stanwood, Maryland State di-
rector of selective service, today
outlined registration require.
ments under the Universal Mill
tary Training and Service Act, as
| amended, which he said he believ-
ed were not thoroughly under.
stood by all of the general public.
1.-THE obligation to register"
Col. Stanwood said, "is a continu-
ing obligation and must be full
filled. The obligation to register
is imposed by the act on every
male citizen and every other male
person in the United States be-
tween the ages of 18 and 26, with
the general exception of members
of the armed forces on active
duty and certain aliens"
The young man who becomes
Is is required to register at a
local board office within five days
of the date of his 18th birthday,
Col. Stanwood explained, but if
he happens to be away from home
he need not return; he may regis
ter at the nearest local board con-
venient to him and the record
will be sent to the local board
having jurisdiction, even though
it is in another state.
If he is in a foreign country
when he becomes Is, he registers
with any U. g. diplomatic or con-
sular office.
After he registers, it is manda-
tory that a registrant keep his
local board informed of any
change in his address or change
in status, the director pointed out.
This applies after he becomes &c
as well as before. Registrars,
generally speaking, who have
been deferred subsequent to June
10, 1851, are liable until they are
35.
Col. StanWood said he could not
overemphasize the importance of
the registrant giving his perma-
nent home address as his place
of residence when he registers at
a board away from home, since
the place of residence which he
gives when registering determines
the local board which will always
have jurisdiction over him.
ANY person who changes from
a status which did not require
his registration to status which
does require it must register
promptly to be within the law"
Col. Stanwood said.
The colonel said that, in gen.
eral, aliens entering the United
States for the first time are re.
quired to register at a local board
within six months following the
date of their entry.
The maximum penalty for VIC
lation of any of the provisions
of the selective service law, Col
Stanwood pointed out, is five
years in prison or a fine of $1,000
or both.

SUMMER WORK BEGINS AT LUCKY SHOT MINE

M. J. Lynch, and son Tom, of Juneau and Seattle this week went in to the Lucky Shot mine to do cleanup work at the gold mine. We worked up there for brief time this past fall," Lynch said this week." and expect to continue our work throughout the summer"
 With the road through the pass still blocked by snow it was not possible for them to drive by the Little Susitna road. Lynch shipped his truck and materials on the railroad to Willow and planned to drive as near the mine as possible, and then pack in what materials will be imme- dlately needed. Between seven and eight persons will be employ ed in the work at the mine this summer, Lynch said.

SOME BETTER PUBLIC CAMP GROUNDS; OTHERS DESTROY
