PREFER TO REMAIN sON
COAST, COMMITTEE FINDS
Pioneers residing in the Sitka
Home prefer the coast climate to
that of the Interior, according to the
_ official report made in Juneau to the
Legislature by the Joint Committee
? which recently visited the Home.
t The report also includes an invent
f ory of the sanitarium at Goddard’s
r hut makes no recommendation as to
its availability or convenience as a
. site for a Territorial orphanage, ac
■ cording to the Juneau Empire.
I
i The report includes a number of
i!
I! recommendations, the most import
II
Jjant of which is one that the Terri
11 tory should begin now to set aside
J i funds for the erection of a modern
11
| tireproof institution to take the place
[ of the one now in use.
I
i In part the report oil the Home
>
i said:
i
[ “It is the opinion of your commit
1 tee that the building itself at no dis
tant time in thejuture should be re
placed by a modern fire proof con
Crete structure. There is no doubt
but that the Territory will have to
maintain, for many, years to come, aa j
institute to care for its aged and in-)
digent, and it is necessary to plan on '!
a permanent, well constructed build
ing. »A frame structure is a most
dangerous place to house a large
number of aged and infirm people.
It has been the history of such insti
tutions that, in case fire breaks out,
many of the unfortunates lose their j
lives. i
I i
“Your committee, therefore, reconi- J
mends that the Territory start a j
sinking fund to be known as the j
“Pioneer Home Building Fund," and !
set aside each year a certain sped- !
fied amount, until sufficient shall
have been set aside to erect a per
manent home for the aged and indi- J
gent of the Territory. J
‘The personal side is the one larg- \
lv observed by your committee mem- |
bers of which went about among the t
inmates of the Home and Questioned i
them on practically all points. An J
effort was made by each member to J
seek out those whom he kne-vv per- J
sonally and ascertain if there was |
anything in their opinion that could |
be done for the general improvement. [
“The question of location was tak !
en up with many and the concensus j i
of opinion was that Sitka (or any •
coast town) with its mild climate J
(even admitting the depressing ef- *
feet of the rain) was preferable to J
towns of the Interior ‘with the more j
severe winters. i
“The Superintendent has many vex- |
ing problems and we believe that
he has done remarkably well under
very trying circumstances.
“A number of members of your
committee visited the Sheldon Jack
son School, and wish to report that
this is an institute doing splendid
work. The work being done there
deserves the highest praise. The
buildings are substantial and wreil
kept. It is an institution of which
its founders and supporters may wet1
be proud.
“We recommend that a small plot
of ground be secured for gardening
purposes, and the Board of Trustees
be instructed to investigate and re
commend to this session of the leg
islature such a plot.
“We believe that it should be the
policy of the Board of Trustees of
the Pioneers’ Home to use Alaska
, '
coal for fuel purposes for heating
their institution.
“We recommend that the suggest
ions contained in the Superintend
ent’s report in regard to minor im
provements be followed.
“We recommend that the insurance
against the hazards be increased.
