Jarvela Pushes
‘Meaty’ Problem
“The only bill on the House
Calendar with ‘meat’ in it,” is the
way Rep. Gil Jarvela of Kodiak
describes his resolution HJR18.
The resolution asks that sheep
and moose be transplanted to
Kodiak Island.
Jarvelas’ comment about the
“meaty” situation brought a
question from Rep. C. M. Bink
ley (R-Fairbanks) who asked,
“What do those big bears feed
on?”
“Fish, berries and moose,” re
plied Gil as th® resolution sailed
on to passage.
