Project For Nome
George Coplen, Regional Direc
tor of the housing needs program
in the Territory has announced
that the 20 units which were
planned for Nome will not be con
structed this year.
The program as outlined previ
ously was approved by his board,
but when referred to the U. S.
Army Engineers they refused to
grant approval on the basis that
these housing units were not
needed. As all housing construc
tion is under the Army and Navy
approval, nothing can be done un
til they see the need for the use
of priority matrials.
