OFFICE OF A. J. DIMOND
Delegate from Alaska
(By J. J. ECKLES)
Washington, D. C., April 13, 1935
Andrew Nerland of Fairbanks,
and member of the Territorial Leg
islature, arrived in Washington on
Monday accompanied by Mrs.. Ner
land. Mr and Mrs Nerland stopped
one day to see the city and then left
for New' York where they will sail
on the “Majestic” for England, and
thence to Norway for a short visit
before returning to Alaska.
The National Resources Board has
completed the diagrammatical plan
of their exhibit for the San Diego
Exposition to he held this summer.
The Alaska display occupies the key
position at the entrance of the sec
tion devoted to Territories and Is
land Possessions of the United Sta
tes.
And as George Clarke Dickens,
Administrative Assistant to the
Board, explained the reason for this
choice position, “We put it there
because we had to," Which is cer
tainly logic, for public attention is
turning more to Alaska than any
other possession of the Nation. Mr
Dickens resided in Cordova and Sew
ard for some time and was formerly
with the Alaska Railroad.
Mrs. Anthony J. Dimond, wife of
the Delegate, has been appointed a
member of the Hospitality Commit
tee for the annual breakfast of the
Congressional Club, to be served at
the Mayflower Hotel in honor of
Mrs Roosevelt, April 29th.
After extended debate in the house
on April 8th the General Rivers and
Harbor bill passed the house the
next day. Most of the objections
were caused by members trying to
have their projects included that
have not been surveyed and recom
mended by the Board of Engineers.
The bill includes only projects that
have been surveyed. The following
Alaska projects are embodied in the
bill; Wrangell harbor, Wrangell Nar
rows, Dry Pass, Stickine River Ko
diak harbor Petersburg harbor Eg
egik river Cordova harbor Seward
harbor and Nome harbor. The bill
is now before the senate.
Mrs. Catherine Palm of Fairbanks
has ■ been enjoying a short visit in
Washington and called on the dele
gate Wednesday. Mrs. Palm ex
pects to return to her home early
in May.
The delegate still has several co
pies of the agricultural year-book of
1933 and 1934 and will be glad to
send copies to anyone interested.
The annual report on the mineral
industry in Alaska will not be av
ailable for romo time, but rn ad
vance statement has been prepared
by the Geological Survey and may
be obtained from delegate Dimond
Secretary Ickes has reported un
favorably on the bill authorizing the
sale and lease of certain lands near
Homer to the Jesse Lee Home. This
bill should he passed by congress
will probably mean that even if the
the president will veto it.
The hearings scheduled for Thurs
day before the committee on Mines
and Mining of the house on the Pope
Dimond bill for relief of economic
distress through the development of
mineral resources, was postponed be
cause of the illness of the chairman.
The social security bill to provide
for federal assistance to states in
providing for old-age benefits, as nu,\
before congress, includes Alaska and
the territory of Hawaii.
Dr. Charles A. Bunnell is still
confined to the Georgetown Univer
sity hospital by arthritis. Dr, Bun
nell's condition is considerably bet
ter than at any time since his arriv
al, but the doctors are unable to
say when he will be able to leave.
The conference with Canadian
Minister for discussion of plans for
the Pacific-Yukon Highway was
postponed because the delegate was
required to be present at a meeting
of the committee on territories
which conflicted with the time ar
ranged by the minister.
The senate committee on terri
tories held hearings Monday on the
bills to authorize the cities of Ket
chikan, Seward Petersburg Valdez
and Nome to issue bonds for the
construction of certain municipal
public works. The Ketchikan and
Seward bills have passed the house
and the senate committee ordered
a favorable report on the Ketchikan
bill without amendment The Sew
ard bill was ordered stricken and a
new bill was formed, providing for
the issuance of bonds redeemable
only through the revenues of the
utilities, and this was further am
ended to make the bill null and void
if the present utilities company
should offer to sell its properties to
the town for $75,000,
The committee ordered the Peters
burg Valdez and Nome bills favor
ably reported with minor amend
ments.
