“Any Place on Seward Peninsula”
Alaska To Get
House Trailers for
Temporary Houses
ANCHORAGE (/P)—House trail
ers for emergency housing will be
provided to Alaskan cities without
cost, E. Glen Wilder, direc‘or of
the Alaska Housing Authority, re
ported today. He said 488 deluxe
units will be available.
However, sites, utilities and pos
sibly transportation will have to
be furnished for the trailers, which
are, at present, located in the Pa
cific northwest. They are “frozen”
for Alaskan use.
Commenting on the housing cri
sis which makes the use of the
trailers necessary, Wilder said:
“Something must be done. We
have a waiting list for housing 19
years long. Judging from the cur
rent turnover, cities are going to
lose people or have slums located
on their outskirts.”
“These trailers must be strictly ;
temporary rental quarters,” Wilder
said. “If the cities desired they
could limit the occupancy for five !
years or any period they felt would
carry them through the housing
crisis.”
The trailers originally cost the ;
government $3300 each. They are'
fully equipped with ranges, heat
ers, and refrigerators.
