Kenai Commissioner,
$4,000 Short In Funds,
Sentenced to 15 Months
ANCHORAGE, W)—Paul Wise,
former U. S. Commissioner at
Kenai, was sentenced in federal
court this week to 15 months in
prison after pleading guilty to
charges of embezzling public
funds.
Wise was accused of failing to
account for $4,000 in collections.
Uv S. Attorney Earl Cooper told
Judge George Folta that Wise had
made restitution of $1,100 but
slightly over $1,500 still was un
accounted for. Cooper recommend
ed -a two-year sentence. He said
extenuating circumstances were
Wise’s inexperience at keeping
reports and his concern over his
wife’s health. He also said Wise
disputed the government’s figures.
His attorney, Carl Hutton, told
the court Wise’s understanding of
the law was that a commissioner
was entitled to retain $5,000 each
year on fees collected.

Jonstruction on Ketchikan
’alp Mill May Get
Under Way This Year
BELLINGHAM, Wash., WP) —
The long-delayed construction of
a huge pulp mill at Ketchikan
will likely get under way this
year, Lawson P. Turcotte, presi
dent of the Puget Sound Pulp &
Timber Co., disclosed Wednesday.
The mill, which has been de
scribed as a $40,000,000 project,
will be built by the Ketchikan
Pulp Co. with financing jointly
by the Puget Sound Pulp &
Timber Co. and the American
Viscose Corp. of New York.
In his annual report to stock
holders, Turcotte reported there
has been .“progress in our Alaska
pulp project pointing toward com
mencement of mill construction
in 1952.”
Turcotte said the eight billion
feet of virgin timber awarded to
the Ketchikan Pulp Co. by the
United States Forest Service is
“sufficient timber to keep the
proposed mill supplied for all
time.” Plans for the project were
first annouuced more than three
years ago.
Whales, seals and sharks can
carry out migratory voyages com
parable in speed and distance to
those of steamships.
