"'AXILLA GRANGE MEETS
The regular meeting of ’"asilla Orange No.2
',7as held 'Tuesday evening, July 15, It was
decided to continue efforts to have agri
cultural experimental work carried on by
the U.3.D.A. only.
Mrs, Henry Hanson was appointed to look
into the matter of having the T.B. X-rays
for Nasilla people given in Nasilla, as it
was pointed out that a great many people
could not go to Palmer due to lack of trans
portation. It was felt that it would he
easier to transport the X-ray equipment
than to arrange for the transportation of
150 to SCO people.
The next meeting of '"asilla Grange, to be
held on August 5th, will be an Open meet
ing. All friends of the Grange, whether
members or not, are urged to bring Pot
Luck and enjoy a social evening with their
neighbors and friends.

ASSESSMENT T70HK
Decision relative to suspension of assess
ment work on mining claims in Alaska for
another year rests at present with six mem
bers of the House and Senate who have been
named as conferees to settle the difference
between the allowances made by the two
houses of Congress.
The House, in passing Delegate Bartlett's
enabling measure, limited the waiver of
assessment work ■until the period between
July 1, .1948, and July 1, *1949, to mining
claims within the Territory. The "enate,
however, extended the benefits of the bill
to mining throughout the continental United
. States, and until an agreement can be reach
ed the bill will'not go to the President
for his approval,
T7hethcr the bill passes or not, declarations
of intention to hold mining claims must be
filed before noon of July 1 of this year
as those declarations cover the nast year
of non-performance of assessment work. If
the bill does hot become law assessment
work must be performed between July 1, 1947
and July 1, 1948.
