Berteaon, owner of the pack
ing company, about the hill
and he was told that the com
pany had a letter from the
board of directors stating
that local canneries were to
get a special wharfage rate
on empty cans. Watson said
that he did not, know of the
letter and did not consider
Ninilchik as a local cannery.
The dock manager also ex
plained to the board the vast
amount of paper work involved
in a shipment of dynamite
coming over the looal dock.
The question of the paperwork
came up when the. board was
considering telegram charges
involved in a recent, shipment
of dynamite over the dock.
The telegrams were sent to
the Coast Guard and the Alas
ka Steamship company end were
followed by letters of con
firmation. Telegrams were
used because the mail would
be too slow,Watson explained*
The board voted to attach the
telegram charges to the *
wharfage.
