out in the middle of the city for the
Federal Building.
Mr. Roberts stated while in Nome
this morning, just prior to his de
parture for Fairbanks, that he did
not have any definite information as
to when work on the building may
commence, but did inform officials
here that he considered the indica
tion of his being sent to Nome, a
very favorable sign that the project
was immediately at hand in Wash
ington, D. C. and that developments
might be expected before fall.
He also called upon Judge J H.
S. Morison of the District Court
here and in accordance with a tele
gram sent by Judge Morison urg
ing that foundation work at least,
be started before fall, he added his
own concurrence and recommenda
tions for the immediate beginning
of construction work.
His optimistic viewpoint regard
ing the new Federal Building was in
terpreted in municipal quarters as
a distinct advantage to the City
of Nome.
