ALASKA,FEDERAL
! AGENCIES STUDY
| COORDINATION PUN
Plans ;or coordinating work of
the Alaska Housing Authority and
the Alaska Public Works program
are being worked out as a survey
goes forth here and in the Interior,
it was announced today by Lester
M. Marx, special assistant of the
director of the Territories and In
sular Possessions division of the In
terior Department.
Marx is in Juneau looking over
the works program here to present
a review of the situation regarding
it in regard to policy and procedure.
The program was formally the
Community Facilities agency, re
cently transferred to the Interior
Department.
Plans for future work will be
based on appropriation granted by
Congress. The original budget of 21
millions was cut to 5 millions by
the House, but the Senate added 4
millions. The final figure will come
out of a joint conference of both
houses.
The coordination of the territorial
; and federal agencies is necessary
! because of need- for sewers, streets,
and other facilities after homes ate
1 built under the Alaska program.
1 Marx's group finances building of
public works on a 50-50 basis—the
' community paying half the cost of
j installing a street, or other public
need, with the federal agency stand
ing the remainder of costs.
The Juneau Memorial Library
; was one of the first buildings ap
proved under the program, with
the town raising $70,000 toward con
! structlon, and the other $70,000 to
be furnished by the agency.
ASKS COOPERATION
OF LARGER BOATS
IN SALlVfON DERBY
Territorial Sportsmen, Inc., spon
sors of the annual Salmon Derby
starting tomorrow, are asking the
cooperation of larger fishing vessels
during the three days in departing
and entering the small boat harbor.
Out of consideration of smaller
craft, the sportsmen request that
larger vessels travel at speeds slow
enough not to endanger the smaller
boats by waves or rough seas.

FEERO LEAVES CPR
AGENCY TO MANAGE
THEATRMfSKAGWAY
—/
William E. Feero, jr., wellknown
young agent here for the Canadian
Pacific Steamship Company and
prominent in young Republican
club circle’s, leaves Juneau tomorrow
to take up duties in Skagway, where
he will operate the W. D. Gross in
terests in the Gateway City.
Feero will manage the Coliseum
Theater for Gross, and during the
heavy passenger and freight season,
will remain'with C.P.R. as assistant
agent for the company.
William K. McFarlane, who came
north last year from British Co
lumbia to relieve Feero when the
latter was sent to Juneau, will take
over the agency here.
Feero. born in Douglas, formerly
was in Skagway for the company
and following return from service
in World War II, was married there, i
He came to Juneau last November
for the steamship company. His
wife is the former Beverly Beitinger
of that city, the granddaughter of
the late W. J. Mulvihill of Skagway.
The couple’s year-old daughter,
Bonnie Jean, was sent to Skagway
last week to be cared for by Mrs.
Feero’s mother, because the young
couple found themselves hampered
in packing by Bonnie Jean's want
ing every toy she ever possessed to
take with her.
“If we did that," sighed the father,
“the Princess Kathleen wouldn't
have had enough cargo space to
hold all the stuff. So we sent l)er
north so we could get ourseleves
packed.”
