GIFT OF ISLAND ALAMEDA, Feb. 15. After heated discussion last night, the Alameda City Council voted to put on the March 14 ballots a proposal asking Alameda electors whether they will give to the United States the 34 acres the city owns on Government Island. Henry A. Wallace; secretary of agriculture, recently asked for the land to permit expansion of Federal agencies located on the island, which are badly cramped in their present quarters.

Government officials have said if the added land is granted the island will be made a center for (deral agencies for several Western Nyates. An additional 2000 men will be employed on the island and spent in improvements. ALTERNATE PLAN An alternate proposal, sponsored by Councilman Bert W. Morris, asking whether local electors would deed the property to the Government for the sum of $100,000, was not seconded. Councilmen Milton C.

Godfrey and Rix Maurer objected to Morris' motion. They pointed out no one had offered Alameda $100,000 for the property, that the question is only whether the people of Alameda want to give it away or want to keep it. To include the alternate proposition would be tantamount to the council taking a stand which Is not within its province in this matter, Godfrey said. Councilman A. C.

Carrington, declaring the entire council would like to sell the land rather than give it away, if it could find a purchaser, objected to the island being classified as in Oakland bv the United States Postoffice. Alameda is losing valuable publicity on this account, and if Alamedans give the TO U.S. vV property to the Government, the latter should at least give them credit fon it being in Alameda, he asserted. ASKS CHANGE He introduced a motion, readily seconded, that the Postoffice Department be asked to correct this immediately. City Manager Charles R.

Schwanenberg and Capt. Ambrose A. Brown told the council that they had already contacted Government officials about the change of the island's postoffice address to Alameda, and that a favorable answer is expected. While giving the voters an oppor-tunity to decide whether to give the land to the United States, the proposal, as it is to be entered on the ballots, reserves for Alameda an easement and right of way to" construct, reconstruct, repair and maintain conduits and manholes to carry wires and cables of all kinds for supplying electric current across the southeastern boundary line of the 15-acre tract already occupied by the Government. SELLS ELECTRICITY Alameda, through its public utility, now sells about $7000 worth of electricity to the Government, and hopes to triple or quadruple that figure if and when the existing agencies are expanded.

Alameda has no bridge to the island; Oakland connects with it at Derby Street. The island might be leased to business interests, but, being tidelands, cannot be sold or given away except to the Federal Government. If leased to industries, the island would be in need of a modern bridge, which would cost the City of Alameda about $400,000, engineers have estimated. Kinsey $175. He had asked for $15,000 and Crane $75,000.

Sloane had gone to the desert resort last Friday from his home, 95 Parnassus Road, Berkeley, for a rest after a slight illness.

When the Home Industries League merged with the California Development Board and in 1929 became the State Chamber, Sloane went with it.

He established offices of the organization in Palm Springs, San Francisco, Sacramento, Santa Rosa, Stockton and Fresno. A. J.
