The biggest piece of news to
day is the statement by the FBI
that Miss Bentley was serving the
FBI even before she was the re
cipeint of the honor of the Order

stowed upon her by the Russian
Government.
The statements of the accused
stand forlorn in the face of the
fact tlie ex-Communist was doing
the bidding of the FBI.
Many of those accused claim
they are good American citizens
and true: they claim also that
Miss Bentley is a liar and ment

City Council Notes
In a special meeting of I lie
City Council at which the entire
Utility Board was also present it
was decided that the Board
would recommend that the coun
cil act favorably in the matter
of extending an invitation to the
R. E. A. to come into the Sew
ard Area with a hydro-electric
power and that negotiations
st might-way commence.
The first step is a meeting with
Engineer Rivers of Anchorage who
has been for sometime working
with tlie R. E. A. and is accept
able to them in the role of en
gineer.
This move will be further dis
cussed at a special meeting which
will be called Wednesday night
by the council when it is said
Rivers plans to be present. Auth
ority to hire him was voted on
favorably by the City for the pur
pose of taking an inventory of
both power plants.
The overall picture entails a
long-range program which places
the R. E. A. in position to ne
gotiate with the management of
the Seward Light hs Power and
tne R. F. C. in regard to the city
owned plant and formica': a com
bination of tiv two . nd operating
them for the time nece.-sary to
put in the h\ dm-elect ric plant.

Under discussion was a plan
to place all lots outside the busi
ness section on a sliding scale
graduating to a lower assessed
valuation, proceeding north on
till Avenue.
Using lots facing 4th ave. as
far as the alley on the, east and
west sides as the pattern with tii 1
cress streets as one proceeds
north as a step down in assesse i
valuation a fair value may 1 e
given. East and west of 4th ave.
with the alleys as the divisk a
line, the value of lots would d, -
