the RFC may be induced to extend
its services in Alaska by establish
ing a branch office at some suitable
place to handle the appraisal of
boats, thus reducing the charges
made for the loans. For this reas
on it is suggested that anyone inter
ested in securing a loan on their
boat write to Delegate Dimond at
once.

Most of the furor about the hard
ships met by the colonists in the
Matanuska Valley has died down in
Washington. People are beginning
to realize that even though news
paper head lines were accurate in
describing the horror with which
some of the colonists realized that
modern homes with electricity,
plumbing and the customary gad
gets of civilization were not provid
ed, ready and waiting for them to
move into on their arrival in the
Valley, they will continue to live
despite the shock. Now' the gener
al sentiment appears to be that those
who merely w'ent for the trip should
be eliminated for the good of the
majority who are sincere in their
desire to make good in the new
country. Probably some errors
have been made and some will be
made in executing the details of this
project, but that the plan is basic
ally sound is no longer questioned.
During the past week Delegate
Dimond has had several conferenc
es with Col. Lawrence Westbrook,
the immediate head of the division
of the FERA that has charge of the
colony, and with Harry L. Hopkins,
the administrator, to aid in smooth
ing out some of the details.

The House Committee on Roads
held a hearing July second on the
bill introduced by Delegate Dimond
requesting the President to nego
tiate with the Canadian govern
ment for the survey and construction
I
| of the Pacific-Yukon Highway. The
Committee made a unanimous report
| in favor of the bill, which will now
' be put on the calendar for action by
!
the House. The companion bill that
| was introduced in the Senate by,
Senator McNary of Oregon, has been
favorably reported -so it is believed
[that this legislation will be enacted
without very much opposition. While ,
every effort is being made to speed
the passage of this bill, whether
action can be secured this session is
a question because of the large
amount of emergency legislation
that precedes the bill.
