Talking to one of our
territorial legislators as to the
prospects for governmental help in
building a dock, we were advised
that probably the best way to get
such help, would be by initiating
the establishment of a utility dist
rict here in I omer.
by so doing, all the people
interested in the establishment of
a steamship dock could be tar d
equally for the building cnd vin
tainance of same.
as we have noted before, this
locality is being penalized to the
tune of fifteen hundred dollars a
month for excess freight because
we have not a dock for ships to lay
to.
The governmental
probably the greatest
agencies are
losers for
the
CC, the schools and the A.R.C.
are some of the largest receivers of
freight.
It present there is some moner
available for such purposes in the
Jerritorial Gosolene Tax Find and
with the proper set up ve
ght ve
cble to obtain these funds toward
the building of a new do
onding
we to the Government
title to the proper builaing site
for such a dock, it will be necessory
for some kind of a community set up
to promote it.
Frank Metcalf, Terr. &ighwan
engineer is expected in the near
future to visit : omer. mr. Metcalf
has change of these gasolene tax
funds and it would be well when he
arrives to acquaint him with the
facts.
