LOCAL NEWS
Federal Housing Director for the
Territory of Alaska. John E. Pogues,
is at present at Fairbanks, whcie it
is learned there is not much to be
done in that line of business. He
had requested Representative Art
M. Chamberlain upon his arrival
here (yesterday) to wire him infer
,nation and details as to about the
number of persons who intended to
build and repair their buildings and
who would probably wish to make
contact with the Federal Housing
Division.
Mr. Chamberlain in his brief stay
over night found that a considerable
number of persons were awaiting
lus arrival here and so wired Mr.
Pegues at Fairbaanks today to that
effect. It was also learned from Mr
Chamberlain that if sufficient busi
ness did not warrant his coming to
Nome, Mr. Pegues intended to rc
turn to Juneau
We believe that the tune lias ar
lived for each and every individual
that needs this sort of help to spend
a dollar in their own interest and
send an individual wire to Mr. Pe
gues at Fairbanks today or tomor
row, requesting him to come to
Nome immediately, so that plans
and arrangements may be made in
advance for early building and con
struction activities here upon arri
val of the first boats with building
material and supplies.
It is up to you, individually to do
your part in sending a wire, do not
wait and expect that the other fel
low is going to do something for
yiu that you can do for yourself.
