Juneau Gets GSA Funds
To Make Plans for
New Territorial Bldg.
Juneau’s city council looks for
! word to the construction of a
$1,260,000 territorial office build
ing, rather than the $660,000 low
ly structure that was first
planned, it was announced recent
ly. John Argetsinger of Commu
nity Cacilities Services said that
a $40,000 advance for plans and
initial surveys had been approved
; by his organization.
The last session of the territo
! rial legislature voted $660,000 for
| the construction of a territorial
office building. The territorial
board of administration earlier
this spring earmarked $60,000 of
that sum for the purchase of cer
tain property in Juneau, on which
the present city hall is located, as
site for the new building.

THE NEW
PALMER DRUG STORE
(Across from Koslosky’s)
approved the transfer of the
property to the territory. With
the $60,000, Juneau expected to
raze present buildings on the pro
posed site, purchase a portion of
a ^site now owned by the Juneau
Memorial Library (on which to
build a new city hall) and to buy
up a lease granted to a business
now operating in one of the struc
tures to be torn down.
The remaining $600,000 will be
matched by an additional $600,
000 in Federal funds for use in
construction of the proposed
building.
Juneau proponents of the plan
have urged all possible haste in
the matter of approving the build
ing plans, because they felt the
next session of the legislature
would see a strong effort to have
the capitol site changed to An
chorage.

NEW LAND LAW—
(Continued from Page 1)
the land office learns of their
claim.
The law requires that unsur
veyed land must be described by
approximate latitude and longi
tude designations. Surveyed land
must have a metes and bounds
description. Two copies of each
notice, giving name of the settler
and date of settlement, must be
filed with the land office. Copies
of these forms are not yet avail
able in Palmer, but Mrs. Saxton
said she expected to receive a
supply in the near future.
Purpose of the new legisla
tion is to give the Bureau of
Land Management a fund of in
formation on available land, so
that prospective settlers may
be more accurately advised. It
also is expected to stimulate
dilatory settlers into perfecting
the title for their lands.
It was emphasized that the new
law in no way changes the re
quirements for occupancy, and
other homestead legislation.
Miss Phyllis Ericksen, nurse at
! the Valley Hospital, accompanied
the injured man to Seattle, where
he entered Virginia Mason Hos
pital, before starting her vacation
■ in the states.
Mr. Rupe’s condition is now im
proving at the Seattle hospital.
