Three private bill's were intro
duced in the House by Delegate
Anthony Dimond on January 19.
One of these was to authorize the
payment of $582.05 to the Barring
ton Transportation Company of
Wrangell, for expense incurred
in removing snags and other haz
ards to navigation from that part
of the Stikine River flowing thru
Alaska. The company has been
paid by the Canadian Government
for doing similar work in the
Stikine River on the Canadian
side.
Another was to authorize the
issuance of an honorable dischar
ge for Marion W. Ott of Curry,
for his services in the United
States Navy during the World
War.
The other bill was to authorize
the Government to pay William
A. Fleck $61.70 for repairs made ^
in 1933 to the United States mar
shal's office and jail at Douglas.
Final work of construction on
the new Coast Guard vessel John
C. Spencer, which is scheduled to
enter service at Cordova, Alaska,
about July 30 is progressing rap
idly.
The John C. Spencer and its
sister ships, which are on the
same construction program, will
surpass all other Coast Guard ves
sels in size, speed, cruising rad
ius, and modernity of equipment.
The vessel will carry armament
consisting of two 5 inch guns, 2
6 pound guns, and other smaller
units. Equipment for carrying
and operating an airplane is also
being built in. The ship will be
327 feet long, have a beam of 41
feet, and wilil draw 13 feet of
water. The power unit consists
of direct connected oil turbines
which will guarantee a maximum
speed of 20 knots. Fuel arrange
ments will allow a cruising radius
of 15,000 miles without refueling.
14 officers and 112 men will' be
required to man the John C.
Spencer.
The Samuel D. Ingham, now in
the Coast Guard service on the
Pacific Coast, will be sent to Al
aska in about a month. The Ing
ham will be of particular interest
to Alaska residents as it is iden
tical with the Spencer. The Al
aska cruise will be made to sur
vey docking facilities in Cordova
and other Alaska ports in line
with the assignment of the Spen
cer there.
A Naval station for Alaska is
proposed in a bill introduced in
the House by Delegate Dimond
on January 29. Enactment of the
bill would authorize and direct
the Secretary of the Navy to lo
cate a Naval station and appurten
ant buildings,landing fields, docks
roads, walks, aerodrome, signal
systems, and target ranges, and
other facilities essential to such
a station. The bill authorizes an
appropriation of 100 million dol
lars for carrying out its provi
sions.
Considerable interest has been
noted about the proposed meas
ure which is in character with
the program of defense for Alas
ka urged by the Delegate since
his election to the 73rd Congress.
