Every man and woman is invit
ed to join the American National
Red Cross during the annual roll
call foi membership, November 11,
by H. S. Balderston, chairman of
the Seward Chapter.
A. L. Schafer, manager of the1
Pacific Branch, in a letter to the
Seward Chapter emphasizes a re
solution adopted by the Central
Committee, governing body of the j
national organization, in which it j
■ says that in order to meet the J
! greatest emergency in relief-giving ;
i that it has faced since the World
i War, the Red Cross needs greater!
support through increased mem
berships.
The Red Cross has given aid to
more than 15,000.000 persons in the
last year, a total of 3.387,156 fam
ilies alone having received Red
! Cross flour. National expenditures
i in all Red Cross services during the
year aproximated $6,506,500 while
the 3,500 chapters and their 12.000
branches, expended $7,500,000 addi
tional.
Responding to this emergency
I call. Chairman Balderston imme
I diately started work of mobilizing,
Red Cross workers in this commu- !
j nity to conduct the Roll Call, se- j
lecting Rev. E. E. Reisner as chair- 1
man of Roll Call.
Seward has taken an important j
part in relieving distress in this j
district. The Seward Chapter dis
tributed 960 sacks of Red Cross
flour milled from government
wheat, benefiting 150 families.
The Chapter also has been as
I sited in hospitalization, medicines
j and groceries insofar as the fin
; ances permitted.

Two weddings were recently per
formed at Homer when Miss Caro

I Wood was bridesmaid and Mr. John

1 Mr. Johnson served in a similar ca
i pacity for Ralph Paulson, so in a
j way it was a double wedding. Mrs.
Anderson is the sister of Mrs. Oscar

since 1930, having been born at
Nome, Alaska. Mrs. Paulson came

Mr. Paulson from Cordova. We

msu ITEMS OF
INTEREST IT THE
NATIONAL CAPITAL
The Department of Commerce in
forms Delegate Wickersham that
certain expenditures for the light
house service in Alaska will be
made in a very short time. To
complete the new station to a point
back of the crumbling cliffs at Cape
Hinchinbrook the sum of $48,000
has been set aside and will be all
that will be necessary to complete
the work, it is expected, however,
that the winter weather will cause
some delay and the station will not
be completed until next summer.
The big expenditure will be $285,000
for a new lighthouse tender to re
place the Fern. It is expected that
some building company on the Pa
cific coast will secure the contract.
For the construction of a buoy shed
at Ketchikan and other small work
$12,000 has been set aside. But it
must be understood that under the
economy law the amounts desig
nated for each project will be cut
10 pq rcent.
* * * #
Some employees of the Alaska
Railroad are desirous of purchasing
the houses and lots which they
have been occupying and which
were built by the government. Del
egate Wickersham has taken the
matter up with the General Land
Office and is informed that under
the ruls governing the sale of
lots in Anchorage, on which houses
have been built by the Alaska En
gineering Commission, a provision
is made that the lots shall be ap
praised by the superintendent of
sales for the railway townsites in
Alaska, who now is James A. Ram
sey, and the houses by the general
manager of the Alaska Railroad.
The lots and houses may be offered
at public sale by Mr. Ramsey. Of
the amount to be paid, one-fifth
must be paid in cash at the time of
sale, the balance payable in month
ly installments. The regulations
provide that the property must be
offered at public sale before becom
ing subject to private sale.
A wire recently sent from Seat
tle as follows: “A dispatch receiv
ed here, and confirmed from Wash
ington, says the Treasury Depart
ment has approved of a border im
igration station at Ketchikan.” An
inquiry at the Delegate’s office is
made as to just what this means.
The Labor Department states that
the erection of an immigration sta
tion is not contemplated at Ketch
ikan, and that only two or three
rooms are necessary to accommo
date the requirements at Ketchi
kan. The Treasury Department
further adds that the only building
selected for Ketchikan is the $400,
000 allocation that will house the
post office, court officials, such of
fices as are needed by Immigra
tion officials, and any other selec
tions.

Alaska is one of the localities
where Federal officials do some
times resign, at least postmasters.
One of the latest is Samuel G. Da
vis, who has been postmaster at
Hydaburg, First division, for only a
few months and now wishes to be
relieved. Mrs. Amy D. Larson was
appointed postmaster at Taylor, in
the Second division, last summer,
and now declines the appointment.

The Interior Department has re
quested Governor George A. Parks,
Superintendent Ike Taylor of the
Alaska Road Commission, and Bur
ton H. Barndollar, examiner of ac
counts of the Alaska Railroad, to
report by November 16. It is desired
to have them in Washington in
connection with appropriations for
various department activiites.

Delegate Wickersham’s office has
been informed by the Treasury
Department that several private
firms have sought to become archi
tects fo;’ *he new federal building
at Ketchikan. It is further stated
th L announcement wiT not be
made untfi after November 10
whether the various public build
ings to be erected under the Relief
act will have the government su
pervising architect to do the arch
