The following communication was
handed to Andrew Christensen this af
ternoon after the decision was reached
at a meeting of the school board. Mrs.
E. S. Reedy, director, A. J. Wendler,
clerk, and Dr. J. L. McBride, treas
urer, comprise the board of education
that has the local matter in charge.
The communication carries an ultima
tum that will hardly come to pass, as
the authorities of the Alaskan Engi
neering Commission have so far suc
cessfully financed the Anchorage pub
lic schools and Commissioner F. Mears
is in Washington at the present time
partly in the interest of this vital
question. Mr. Christensen advises
The Times that he confidently expects
to have some definite information from
| Washington by the latter part of this
, week and that he has no doubt but
that Commissioner Mears and Secre
tary Lane will bring the matter to a
definite and a successful financial ter
mination.
Anchorage, Dec. 27, 1916.
Mr. A. Christensen, Anchorage.
My Dear Mr. Christensen: We beg
to inform you that the Anchorage
board of education, at its meeting
held this A. M., came to the following
, conclusion:
Inasmuch as there are no territorial
| funds provided or promised to main
i tain our Anchorage schools;
And, inasmuch as the only possible
relief must come through your office;
And further, because the govern
ment has already assumed responsi
bility for debts contracted up to Jan.
1st, 1917;
We are of the very definite opinion
and do so inform you, that we cannot
open the schools again until we are
authorized to do so by the govern
ment’s guaranteeing the maintenance
of same. And further, unless you so
notify us before Friday evening in
writing, we will publish a notice that
the schools will not open on Jan. 2nd,
1917. Very sincerely,
A. J. WENDLER, Clerk.
