INDICATIONS FAVORABLE FOR FED. BUILDING.
Receipt yesterday of the news telling of the opening
of the new bids on the proposed new Federal Building
for Nome, brought brighter hopes that the building
would be under construction this summer, following a
long winter’s efforts to push the proposal to a final de
termination.
When bids were again called for this spring on a
concrete building, it was discovered that they were en
tirely too high to come under the allotment of $425,000
made available through the Treasury Department.
The Northwestern Alaska Chamber of Commerof,
acting with unusual speed,agreed with suggestions from
Delegate Anthony J. Dimond that specifications be
changed to bring the building within the range of the
allotment. The Chamber wired the Delegate asking
him to institute measures for modification of plans so
that new bids could be called for and possibly accepted
in time for early dispatch of supplies to Nome, to insure
commencement of construction this summer.
In accordance with the Chamber’s wishes, the Dele
gate was successful in securing the necessary changes
and new bids were called for. Yesterday’s bids have
yet to be examined and the award to be made, but the
indications that this time the plan will be successful,
are more favorable than ever before. The lowest bid
of $352,000 still allows a margin of $73,000 for furnish
ing the new building, and we are looking forward anx
iously to the news that the award has been made, and
the time when construction supplies will reach Nome.
