Auditor Disallows $5,000
Voucher for Expenses
By Delegate Bartlett
Meeting of the Territorial board
of Examiners, due because of Del
egate E. L. Bartlett’s appeal of
Auditor Neil Moore’s disallow
ance of a $5,000 voucher covering
Bartlett’s expenses, had not been
set last week.
Governor Gruening said the
meeting will take place as soon
as possible. However, Henry
Roden, Territorial treasurer and a
member of the three-man board
was in Seattle and the date of his
return could not be ascertained.
Bartlett, who is by law given
the right to appear before the
board to plead his case, is in
Washington, D. C.
But it is unlikely the meeting
will be delayed until he is able
to appear, since a decision in his
favor would make this unneces
sary.
In case the board believed
Moore’s action should be sustain
ed, Bartlett’s -appearance to state
his case would be in order. How
ever, the third member of the
board, Attorney General J. Ger
ald Williams, already has stated
a belief that the $5,000 voucher
should be allowed. Williams is the
board’s legal advisor.

Anchorage Appointed
Commissioner of Mines
Governor Gruening Monday an
nounced the appointment of Phil
R. Holdsworth of Anchorage to be
Commissioner of Mines for the

Mr. Holdsworth succeeds Leo

Mr. Holdsworth was born in
Grants Pass, Oregon, in 1910. He

He was commissioned 2nd lieu

Upon his discharge from the
Army he was successively con

mines by a variety of men promi
nent in the mining world of Al
aska.
Mr. Holdsworth is married and
has three children.
The process of melting ice re
quires heat but the melting can
be carried out in such a manner
that the resulting water is the
same temperature as was the ice
before it was melted.
