DEEP HARBOR
FOR CORDOVA
CORDOVA — New harbor im
provements may be in store for!
Cordova, if plans discussed by
the city council materialize.
Application will be made to
the U. S. War Department’s en
gineering division to have the
northern section of the small
boat harbor dredged.
In a recent visit to Cordova,
Colonels Lee and Dunn of the en
gineering corps, gave verbal ap
proval to such an undertaking,
according to Mayor W. H. Chase
They looked over the suggested j
project Mayor Chase told the
Council and said that they would
“okeh” the measure if a formal
request were made for it.
It is estimated that dredging
the north section of the harbor
that portion of it lying between
the north breakwater and the
city pier will srbstantially in
crease its navigable capacity.
A factor that may have a bear
ing on the project is the fact that
all of the money authorized by
Congress for the harbor has not
been used up. In round figures,
the bill appropriated $295,000 for
the boat harbor but actual cost
of the work under contract was
only $242,000 leaving about $53,
000 sitll unused.

PREVENT COLDS
In recent years, Grapefruit has become
highly popular, not only as a tasty fruit but
also for use in combating human acidity.
Being one of the citrus family, it is highly
beneficial in preventing Common Colds.
