construction of facilities in the
territory could be delayed more
than a year.

struction of a 200 bed hospital in
Anchorage came to a halt because
of lack of appropriated funds, with
little immediate promise that any
thing can be done about it. 2. The
I '-'■I !— „_
contract for the care of Alaska
Mental patients at Momingside
hospital in Portland has been ex
tended 30 days past expiration of
old agreement two days ago.

health money problems in his ap
pearance before the Board of
Administration.
Washington Ml. Rep Miller,
Nebraska, Senior Republican mem
ber of the House Interior Commit
tee, predicted Congress would
admit Alaska as the 49th state dur
ing the coming session.
