NEW WATERFRONT FLOAT
JUST (BOUT COMPLETED
Though apparently small in size,
yet the new city float, just about com
pleted by an Alaska Railroad crew,
Is really the same length as the for
mer one. They differ, however, in
shape. Where the old one was almost
square the new one is long and nar
row and is said by boat owners to be
an improvement over the former. A
new incline, or walk, has also been
built; so constructed and reaching out
so far that the steepness has been re
duced considerably. And above all
else the entire structure looks solid.

Buick for 1928 gets away in traffic like
an arrow from a bow!
Watch the Buicks next time you drive
downtown. See how easily they step out
in front when the signal changes. And
note how they give other cars the slip
in the friendly rivalry of traffic.
You cannot say you know the full

driven a Buick for 1928.

^CONVENTION REPORT
j PIONEERS OF ALASKA
AT KETCHIKAN
PRESERVATION VALUABLE HIS.
I TORICAL DATA CONSIDERED
AT SESSION
(Ketchikan Chronicle)
The sixteenth annual convention of
the Grand Igloo of the Pioneers of
| Alaska was formally opened Friday
! morning, March 16, in Pioneers Hall
I
| by H. R. Shepard, grand president.
■ As George V. Love, grand secretary
and several other delegates had not
! arrived, only a short session was held.
Saturday morning with all of the
delegates or their alternate present,
many important matters were dis
cussed and resolutions passed that
immediate action should be taken to
carry them out.
Ways and means for improving the
living conditions of Alaska’s insane
now being cared for at Morningside
sanitarium again were taken under
consideration and resulted in some
constructive suggestions.
The sanitarium is now conducted
by the corporation on a commercial
j basis and strictly for profit, it is al
leged by members of the order who
have investigated the matter. As the
five-year contract contains no clause
compelling the officers of the institu
tion to consult with physicians other
j than those employed by themselves
in regard to the mental condition of
the patients, they may keep them con
fined there indefinitely should they
so desire, it was pointed out.
i It was decided to bring the matter
to the attention of the Secretary of
Interior and the Secretary of the Trea
sury through the Governor of Alaska
land urge the appointment of a mem
1 bei» of the IT. S. health service of Port
land, Oregon, as a “discharging offi
cer” for the Morningside sanitarium
until the present contract expires. It
is hoped better means of caring for
the insane of the Territory will then
be found.
The resolutions also urge that this
discharging officer be given authori
ty to discharge Alaskan patients from
the institution when he considers
, them cured.
Historical Records
Another matter of interest consid
ered was the collection and preserva
tion of valuable historical data of the
Territory. As the Arctic Brotherhood
has disbanded, steps are to be taken
to secure, if possible, the records col
lected by them and have them pre
served in the museum of the Alaska
College.
To this end it was resolved to se
cure the names of the last grand of
ficers of the Arctic Brotherhood and
enlist their interest and assistance in
preserving them for posterity. The
matter is also to be brought to the
attention of the president of the col
lege.
MEMBERSHIP RULING
Letters were read from pioneers
protesting against any alteration in
the qualifications for membership in
the order of the Pioneers of Alaska,
l
[which now requires a man to have
been a resident of the Territory since
1905. A resolution was passed that
;the present requirements, passed by
!a two-thirds vote of the members,
should remain unchanged. There had
been considerable agitation over the
subject as some Alaskans think a 20
year residence in the north should
entitle them to become members.
