ROADS IN 1927
♦COLONEL STEESE OUTLINES
VARIOUS AMOUNTS TO BE
EXPENDED
—
Col. James G. Steese, President of
the Alaska Road Commission, who
returned to Juneau from a trip which
took him as far as 'Egypt, said to
the Juneau Empire that the expendi
tures directed by the Alaska Road
Commission for the next season
wrould probably amount to $2,000,
000. The last session of Congress
appropriated $1,000,000, the largest
appropriation it has ever made for
the Alaska Road Commission, being
$100,000 over the $900,000 received
for the last two years. The figure
allowed by the budget was $500,000.
When the bill for the appropriation
had passed the House of Represent
atives the amount had been increas
ed to $700,000, the Senate increased
that sum to $1,060,000, and finally
conferees compromised on an even
$1,000,000
An auaiuonai $/ou,vuu was aucnor
ized by Congress to be available
March 1, 1928 as the 1929 program
of the Road Commission might be
put under way without waiting for
belated appropriations from the Sev
entieth Congress, which meets for
a long session in December.
National Park Service
In addition to the $1,000,000 appro
priation for road building, $60,000
was secured from the National Park
Service for the extention of the 22
mile road now under construction in
Mt. McKinley National Park, said
Col. Steese.
For Juneau Dock
The same bill passed by Congress
appropriating $1,000,000 for road con
struction, appropriated $22,500 for
the building of a government dock
at Juneau, the funds to be available
July 1st. of this year. The structure
should be completed soon after that
date. According to the plans, the
dock will have a frontage of 400 feet
and at low tide will accommodate
vessels drawing 25 feet of water.
Bar Examination
The River and Harbor bill which
passed Congress in January, author
ized a preliminary examination and
survey of the Gastineau Channel Bar
with the idea in mind of dredging a
channel for small boats up to a draft
of 10 to 12 feet at low tide. The
River and Harbor bill also called for
the snagging of the Tolovana River,
which was favorably recommended
several years ago. The bill asked
for an additional examination and
survey of Dry Pass, Port Fredrick,
Sitka Harbor, Cordova Harbor, Anch
orage Harbor, Nome Harbor, Portage
Bay, Afognak, and William Henry
Bay.
Seward Appropriation
Another bill was passed by Con
gress authorizing an expenditure of
$125,000 for the control of Lowell
Creek to protect from flood waters,
damage to the Alaska Railroad ter
minal and other government property
at Seward.
A bill authorizing the extension of
the Nome-Shelton Tramway was
passed in the House of Representa
tives on February 2, but failed to
pass the Senate due to the filibuster
during the closing of the short ses
sion.

Additional funds were secured for
