PROSPECTORS' ASSOCIATION j
|
j
Steps are under way, says
the Anchorage Weekly Times,
for the formation of a prospect- I
ors or claim owners’organization j
with the purpose in view of se-1
curing various aids to the pro- j
Cession in the way of trails, pros
pectors’ outfits, etc.
Through the offices of the or
ganization mconnaisance would
be made of routes and the needs
of prospectors along this line
et forth succintly and correctly
Among other matters to be 1
taken up will be a request direct
to the Alaska Engineering Com- j
mission for a special fixed rate
<m prospectors’ outfits, includ
ing pack animals, where owned j
by a prospector and used solely j'
by himself in the pursuit**)! bus
iness and not used to transport j
materials lor others. In order
to protect against abuse of the |
privilege it is proposed that the!
obtaining of a prospector^ rate
for pack animals under misrep’
resentation would place the re
cipient in the position of obtain
ing goods under false pretenses,
thus assuring the bona fide pros
pector the benefit of this need
ed aid.
Such questions must go before
the secretary of the Alaska Eng
. ering Commission, which may
initiate the matter if sufficient
demand be brought forward to
show7 its need.
Upon approval by the secretary
the commission may make a spec
ial rate to cover the matter.
