Although no definite assurance j
was received that the appropria- j
tion for the Seward breakwater j
has actually been included in !
bills now pending in Congress, |
messages from the Alaska dele- j
gate to congress and from Gener
al Brown, chief army engineer,;
indicate that the matter will be;
I included in emergency jappropri
! at ions that are almost certain
i to pass under the enlarged ex
jpenditme program proposed by
| President Hoover.
I rrV.ie ie Hm n, fvf nnin- '
ion, according to Le» n Urbach,
president of the Seward Chamber
of Commerce. The Chamber had
wired to the delegate, to Brown
and to Majar • Mali mi Elliott,
president of the A aska Road
| Commission. No reply has been
I received from Major Elliott be
j cause it is thought he consid
j ered the matter covered in Gen
eral Brown’s message
“However,” said Urbach, “we
j of the Chamber feel highly en
1 couraged that the breakwater,
! already promised us, will be
| authorized and the appropria
I tion made. We are assured of the
Resurrection River bridge and
considerable road woork. The
i Lowell Creek flume repair will
i j furnish some employment in the
i spring. There seems to be a
i strong possiblity that the rail
| road coal dock will also be auth
orized and provided for which
gives hope that we will have
quite a payroll here next year.”
