NUGGET ADS PAY DIVIDENDS
Anchorage Firm
Makes Donation
To Alaska Dev. Bd.
JUNEAU, — A private contri
bution of money toward the work
of the Alaska Development Board
was received this week from Ray
mond M. Wilson of Anchorage
and credited to the Board’s account
by the Territorial Treasurer. Spen
ard Realty, the company with
which Mr. Wilson is connected, has
been receiving some assistance
from the Board in the develop
ment of an industrial site near
Anchorage.
In his letter accompanying his
check Wilson wrote “I wish that
I could make it a thousand dollars!
I believe that we are going to get
some new blood in the legislature
next election and get adequate
appropriations for work such as
yours.”
The. act of the 1945 legislature
which create the Alaska Develop
ment Board empowered it “to ac
cept donations from public agen
cies, civic groups, trade associa
tions, corporations and individuals,
*oward any class of work conduct
ed by the Board.”
Although an attempt in the 1947
legislature to abolish the Alaska
Development Board was defeated,
the session ended with no appro
priation for the Board having been
made for this biennium. A small
balance left from the original ap
propriation made it in 1945 has
enabled the Board, under consider
able handicaps and with only part
time professional assistance, to
carry on its work of fostering in
dustry, business and vocational
development in the Territory.
