OFFICE OF A. J. DIMOND
Delegate from Alaska
(By J. J. ECKLES)
March 30, 1935
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Jones of Nome,
arrived in Washington Monday. They
are enjoying the kind of winter vaca
tion that Jules Verne might describe,
for before it is finished they will
have tried all the means of trans
portation that we can think of ex
cept the submarine. Mr. and Mrs.
Jones arrived in Seattle early in
November last fall on the boat from
Nome. From Seattle they drove
south to Los Angeles where they
took a steamer for New York via
the Panama Canal, shipping their
auto on the boat with them. After
seeing New York they motored to
Washington. They expect to contin
ue on their journey to Seattle in a
few days, where they will again
start north, disembarking at Val
dez to complete the final stage of
their return to Nome by air.
A petition of the residents on the
Prince William Sound mail route,
requesting semi-monthly mail ser
vice to replace the present monthly
service has been presented to the
Post Office department by Delegate
Dimond. In addition to the custo
mary request for approval, the Dele
gate added his personal plea to that
of the petition, saying, “I am inti
mately familiar with this region
since I reside at Valdez and I know
that the improved service would be
of very great benefit economically, as
well as otherwise, to the people of
the region served, and I should be
pleased indeed if the improved ser
vice could be given.”
The Delegate has been actively
trying to have the Farm Credit Ad
ministration extend its functions to
Alaska for the purpose of making
loans to farmers for the purchase of
farm implements, livestock, and ma
chinery. The Farm Credit Adminis
tration has, however, stated that it
is impracticable to include Alaska
as such loans would have to be thru
a Federal Land Bank, and the ex
pense of establishing the bank in
Alaska would bo too great in com
parison with the probable amount
of business that it would do.
Sec. 1. (6) of the Emergency
Relief Appropriation Act reads as
follows:
“Funds made available by this
joint resolution may be used, in the
discretion of the President, for the
purpose of making loans to finance,
in whole or in part, the purchase of
farm lands and necessary equip
ment by farmers, farm tenants,
croppers, or farm laborers. Such
loans shall be repaid in equal an
nual installments, or in such other
manner as the President may de
termine.”
It is not known whether this pro
vision will remain in the bill when
it is finally passed, but as it stands
it would largely take care of the re
quirement for farm loans in Alaska)
except as to loans for the purchase
of livestock.
Delegate Dimond is now working
to have a special Farm Credit Agon
cy established in the Division of
Territories and Island Possessions to
handle such loans to farmers in Al
aska. If this arrangement is work
ed out, it should prove much bet
ter than if the Farm Credit Admin
istration were supervising the loans,
as the agency operating under the
Division of Territories and Island
Possessions could be made to har
monize with other plans for the de
velopment of the Territory.
Shel Wettach, formerly of Nome
and Ruby, but now of Carrollton,
Ohio, called on the Delegate Friday
to discuss the many new opportuni
ties that are opening for Alaska. Mr
Wettach has spent the winter in the
East.
Thu Delegate has recommended
the appointment of Mrs. Agnes L.
Reinert as postmaster at Ketchikan
to succeed Mr.Blackmar whose term
expired May 2!), 1934.
Mrs. Agnes Moran has also been
recommended to the Post office De
partment for appointment as post
master at Nenana.
It is expected that the general
Rivers and Harbors Bill will come
before the House this coming week.
This bill contains all of the Alaska
projects that have been surveyed.

j
BROMLEY, BY BOW, England,
April— Marriage on the dole was
advocated by the vicar of St. Mich
aels church, the Rev. Kenneth Ash
croft.
“It is no more shameful or unrea
sonable for a man to marry on a
public allowance than it was for the
duke of Kent," he said.
