WELFARE WAS
TOLD ABOUT

above clauses until such time as
the board could sit again and be
fully informed by the federal au
thorities as to the proper pro
ceed u re.
Members of the Board were
John H. Walmer of Juneau, First
Division; Russell G. Maynard of
Nome, Second Division ;Mrs. Mar
garet Monkman of Anchorage,
Third Division; and J. G. Rivers
of Fairbanks. Fourth Division.
Numerous new applications for
pensions were approved and au
thority conferred to begin pay
ments as of July 1st, and applica
tions for increase were also al
lowed by the Board while in ses
sion at Juneau.
No increases or pensions to the
limit of $45 per month were al
lowed by the Board at this meet
ing. said Mr Maynard, in view
of the incomplete knowledge then
at hand as to the participation of
the federal government in the
financial end. and also the fact
that it was first necessary for the
Alaska plan to be approved.
Governor John W. Troy, chair
man of the Board, commented
highly on the work done by the
board at its first meeting, which
was largely devoted to organiz
ing functions and duties under
the new set-up.
New forms of applications were
prepared by the Board to con
form to the new act passed by
the legislature and should be
forthcoming at an early date. Of
fices of the Department of Public
Welfare, as created by the Legis
lature, have been established at
Juneau with Director Kirk, who
many Nomeites will remember,
was engaged in the drug store
business here, in charge. As his
personal secretary is Miss Jane
Alexander, daughter of Judge
-Alexander of the First Division.
Two stenographers, Miss Helen
Junes and Miss Romanoff were
employed to take care of the vol
ume of correspondence which has
f! ioded the office. Beyond that,
no further positions were created
at the board’s first meeting.
Before adjourning the Board
| took action delegating certain
! powers to its members to assist
in the forwarding of applications
1 for pension to the Juneau office
and to do all necessary in con
nection with the dissemination of
1 information regarding the new
; set-up.
Mr. Maynard also declared that
it was very probable the actual
work of establishing divisional
centers for the work as outlined
under the territorial act, would
be taken up at the September
meeting, although at present de
finite plans have not jet been
made.
Before returning to Nome he
called at the Pioneer’s Home at
Sitka and visited with such old
timers from this section as Mike
Kennedy, A. L. Carpenter. Geo
rge Cromack, Martin Ravenkiller.
’’Doe” Kemp, Ben Olson, Chris
Dolan, Bill Guisler, "Red” Earle,
“Sapolio", (who has left the home
now), and several others. They
were all in splendid health and
commented highly on the treat
ment they received at the hands
of Superintendent Eller Hansen.
(They send their best regards to
friends in this section, and some
said they would enjoy coming
j back to prospect once more to
find that ellusive metal which
they originally came to the north
country to find in the early days
of the gold rush.

Liquor Law which recently passed the legislature was
forecast, following the request of Outside beer distrib
