of dairy and poultry products:
Butter, sweet and sour cream;
cheese, cottage, Cheddar and
others; eggs, white and brown;

ANS Official Looks
Af School Sites
Charles R. Montjoy, director of
native resources for the Alaska
Native Service, spent the week
end in the Valley to inspect pos
sible sites on which it is pro
posed to rebuild the Eklutna
school. Mr. Montjoy said his job
was in the nature of a prlim
inary survey only, since present
budget allowances do not pro
vide for the rebuilding of the
school this year.
Mr. Montjoy explained his
principal duties with ANS were
the supervising of loans made to
establish the native in small
businesses. His work is primarily
centered about the canning and
fishing centers on the coast and
the reindeer industry of the
north.
He admitted that no such pro
gram for natives is contemplated
in this area for some time to
come, but said the Service had a
long-range program of agricul
tural development for natives
living in this section of Alaska.
Mr. Montjoy was accompanied
to the Valley by Mr. and Mrs.
Don Foster of Juneau and Mr.
and Mrs. Howard Burkher of An
chorage, all of whom are asso
ciated with the Alaska Native
Service.
