mapping in Canada indi
cates that many rich finds
would result from similar
mapping in Alaska. Then,
after the aerial maps had
been carefully studied for
lore showings, the Govern
ment would provide the
necessary grubstake to the
prospector, who would care
fully examine any section
revealed by the mapping as
|especially promising.
In working on the devel
opment of the general plan,
Delegate Dimond and Mr.
Beach recently conferred
with Assistant Secretary of
the Treasury L. W. Rob
erts, the Secretary of the
Interior. Mr. Ickes, and the
Chief of the Alaska Sec
tion of the Geological Sur
vey, Dr. Philip S. Smith;
and in connection with the
aerial photography needed
for the proper execution of
the plan, Mr. Beach and
the Delegate conferred with
General Malin Craig, Chief
of Staff of the U. S. Army.
Since the aerial mapping
would be directly in line
with much of the flying
practise of planes based at
the Army Air Corp Station
authorized for the Territory
the cost would not be so
great as if the project were
charged entirely against
the mapping. In discussing
the plan, the Delegate point
ed out that considerable
preparation will be requir
ed before it can be put in
to operation and that there
are many obstacles to be ov
ercome, but he expressed
himself as certain that if
the necessary coordination
can be secured it would
benefit the Territory im
measureably and would
probably repay the cost to
the government several
times over.
The fiscal and legal as
pects of the problems fac
ing the states and territor
ies desiring to participate
in the benefits extended
under the Social Security
Act were taken up at meet
ings of the Social Security
Board held on December 14
and 15. Delegate Dimond
represented the Territory
of Alaska at the meetings,
which were attended by re
presentatives from most of
the states.
The Delegates believes
that the necessary modifica
tion of pension legislation
for the Territory can be
made, to make it eligible to
come under the provisions
of the Act, without increas
ing the present pension cost
to the Territory. In fact,
data that he has assembled
indicates that the change
in the law may result in an
actual saving to the territor
ial treasury and at the same
time allow many deserv
ing residents to enjoy the i
pension who are unable to
qualify for it under the pre
present Territorial law; and j
that meeting the require
ments of the Act would not i
occasion nearly the prob
lem to Alaska that it would I
to most of the states be
cause the Alaska law would
only require certain liber
alization, while approxi
mately half of the states
have no pension legislation
whatever.
Existing regulations of
the Comm .tee on \c:ounts
require all Members of Con
gres.: to personally pay for
telegrams that are sent
“government collect” to
them by constituents. In
many cases the senders be
lieve that Uncle Sam pays
the tolls on these messages,
while the truth is—the
member has to reach into
his pocket to cover the
charges on all collect tele
grams.
Hugh J. Wade, former
Deputy Administrator of
the NRA in Alaska, who
was recently transferred to
Washington when the Ad
ministration closed its offi
ce in Juneau, is visiting re
latives in Chicago during
the holidays. Mr. Wade will
return to Washington the
first of the year.
