REAL WORK AHEAD
FOR LOCAL GROUP
(Fairbanks News-Miner)
If Fairbanks and Interior Alas
ka are to get results in the Alas
ka Territorial Development plan
soon to be submitted to congress
the special committee of the Fair
banks Chamber of Commerce, re
cently appointed, has a real task
before it, and cannot get its ma
terial formulated and forwarded
too soon. There is no tim to lose.
The material is to pass through
the Alaska Planning Council.
The actual ‘‘Alaska Plan” will be
prepared under the direction of
the National Resources Commit
tee at Washington, and recom
mendations will be made by fed
eral agencies at Washington. The
material will be co-ordinated un
der a Fedcral-Alaska Committee,
appointed by the National Reem.iv
ces Committee and reviewed by
another committee of government
and non-government officials.
There can be little doubt these
various committees at Washing
ton include a number of men who
know little of Alaska. To get
over the idea of the real need of
Alaska and the most practicable
ideas as to how to go about the
plan to develop the territory will!
necessitate a lot of skilful man
euvering.
To begin from the ground up,
every Alaska community must do
its part—and Fairbanks, as the
base of Interior Alaskan activi
ties has a big order ahead.

The Juneau Empire makes the
following pertinent editorial com
ment:
(Juneau Empire's Comment)
It is unfortunate for the Terri
tory that the Alaska plan is to be
drawn up in Washington, D. C.,
by Federal agencies without com
plete consultation with Alaska in
terests. True, according to the
present set-up as announced by
Regional Forester B. F. Heintzle
man, chairman of the Alaska
Planning Council, Federal depart
ment heads in Alaska will be ask
ed to submit suggestions and the
Planning Council itself will have
opportunity to make recommen
dations, but the actual material
for submission to Congress by the,
President is to be drawn up in
Washington with the result that
it will be impossible in the short
time remaining before the first of
the year, when the plan is to be
submitted, to get adequate sug
gestions from Alaskans.
As Delegate Dimond and mem
bers of the Planning Council
stressed to the National Resources
Committee, any worthwhile plan
for the development of Alaska
should be drawn up in Alaska,
where Aiaskans who have a know .
ledge of the Territory' would have
ample opportunity for hearing.
The mining men and engineers
in the Territory who are conver- i
sant with that industry are the'
logical men to give recommenda

tions as to what can best further
development of the industry. The
same is true of every othor activ
ity. Our Territorial officials are
equipped with sound data on Al
aska and its needs and surely
they should be consulted just as
much as th? Federal officials.Aer
ial transportation is one of the
points stressed in Alaska develop
nient.
Who is better qualified to fur
nish that information than the
members of the Alaska Aeronau
tics and Communication Commis
sion, who already have a program
along that line? Yet, it is the
Federal agencies in Washington.
D.C., who propose to draw up a
plan for sound Alaska develop
ment.
Whatever plan is drawn up in
Washington in the short time re
maining before the first of the
year will be at best but a hastly
affair. A genuine Alaska plan to
be of any value must be along
the 10-year plan suggested by
Oel"-ga‘e D:mond. A plan to
hand out money to Federal agen
cies to spend in Alaska in perfect
:ng their scheme of thirgs is not
going to divelop the Territory,
but, ra'her, it will tend to ham
oer private enterprise. Therefore,
the Alaska Planning Council has
a real job before it—drawing up
constructive plans for the long
time developm nt of the Terri
tory and getting favorable action
on them by Congress.”
We wonder what Nome is going
to do about it ?
