SIGN ERECTED

CAPITOL FUNDS
I
] Project Had Approval Feder
al, Territorial Govern
! merits—Is War Victim
A large educational sign, prob
ably the first of a aeries of such,
was erected today at. the block pur
chased in part by the people of
Juneau for the site of a Capitol
I building. It contains the following
| legend:
This is the site for Alaska's
Capitol Building paid for in
part by the citizens of Juneau.
In 1910 Congress appropriat
ed |200,000 for its construc
I tion, which being at first de
layed was definitely postponed
at the outbreak of the war un
til the return of peace.
In this connection the Secre
tary of the Treasury on Janu
| ary 15, 1918, made the follow
ing declaration and promise:
j "Had the war not come to Am
1j tiica, there would have been no
’ j unnecessary delay in the con
[ structlon of this building. It
1 will be progressed as rapdily as
II possible after the return of
peace.
The citizens of Juneau rely
ing upon the good faith of the
Government made of a mining
camp a Capitol City by ex
pending thousands of dollars in
erecting business bouses, banks,
hotels, public school, the city
hall and many splendid resi
dences.
Good faith as well as public
necessity now demand the er
ection of the building.
In 1910 Congress appropriate
I j $200,000 for a public building a
I Juneau to house the Federal am
1, Territorial offices located at thi
i | place.
Of this appropriation some $25,
j 000 was expended in connoctloi
II with securing the site, examinini
fjthc title, making surveys, etc.
i j In 1912, before the Supervising
'Architect, Treasury Department, hat
j reached the itask of preparing tbi
I plans and specifications for the Ju
: arm building, Congress passed tlx
act creating the Alasku Legislature
This suggested to the Supervising
Architect that the remaining $175,
ooo of the Juneau appropriate
would not be sufficient to build i
suitable structure to house all thi
Territorial offices and the Leglsla
ture.
The Alaska Legislature in 1915
and again in 1915 adopted meaner
inis asking for an additional ap
propria tion.
In 1916. Secretary of the Treasury
William G. McAdoo wrote a lettei
to then Delegate James Wickershani
calling his attention to the circum
stances and asking him If he pur
posed to try to secure an additional
appropriation for the Juneau build
ing. The Treasury Department
wanted this information before pro
ceeding with the erection of the
authorized building,
j Judge Wickersham immediately,
: after conferring with the propet
Treasury department officials, intro
duced a bill in Congress appropriat
ing $360,000 additional for the Ju
neau ‘building. He followed his bill
to tlie House Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds and succeed
ed in getting it do include an item
of $3 00,000 in the general public
biuldings bill. Later in the session
i Ccttgri'sv decided not to pass a ge»
! eral public building's bill on accounl
| of tbe heavy appropriation for pru
paredness of the army and navy
1 particularly tbe latter for which
! Coil trots had adopted the so-called
I 1916 Naval Program."
While the Public Buildings and
Grounds Committee of the House ol
1 Kopresentiltlvew annually thereafter,
! for several years, at least, prepared
[ x general public buildings bill, in
: .vliicli the $100,000 item for the Ju
! lean 'building was included, no gen
1 er.il public buildings bill was pasted
I by Congioss. This was owing, to life
i fact that the Untied Stalgs entered
j he war in the following year.
Thus the Capitol building at Ju
neau lia; bad the approval of tlfp
( executive and legislative branches
j if the Federal Government and the
Marka Legislature, but thus tar
; t must be listed as a war casualty.
