be prohibited in Fish Creek,
Campbell Creek, Cottonwood
Creek and Ship Creek in the im
mediate viicnity of Anchorage
and in Gulkana River above
Gulkana Lake in the upper Cop
per River area. “This year,” In
terior Department officials stat
ed, “for the first time, the De
partment finds it necessary to
place control fishing for per
sonal use. Without such protec
tion, the salmon runs in those
streams, already greatly re
duced, would be completely de
stroyed.”
Gravel
Delegate Bartlett last week
called upon persons who have
staked mining claims for gravel
on school land near Anchorage
to relinquish their claims. “Such
action,” he declared, “would be
applauded and is the only right
thing to do.”
The Delegate’s suggestion was
made on the floor of the House
on the day he introduced a bill
to repeal the law approved in
1939 permitting timber and
mineral leasing on school lands.
The present situation was ap
parently never anticipated 36
years ago when Congress in
1915 passed a law reserving to
the Territory for the support of
schools in Alaska two sections
from every township in the Ter
ritory. That law provided that
the sections would be set aside
for agricultural and related pur
poses after survey and if found
to be non-mineral in character.
Somo of these lands contain con
siderable deposits of gravel
which only recently, with the
Territory’s growth and need for
accessible building material,
have taken on a commercial
mineral value.
The law which Delegate Bart
lett seeks to repeal was passed
in 1939—long before gravel as
a mineral took on any signifi
cance—which allowed timber
leasing and extension of the
mining and mineral leasing laws
of the United States to school
lands with proceeds going to the
Territory.
Delegate Bartlett pointed out
to the House this week that “In
one school section near Anchor
age, the largest community in
the Territory, a lease arrange
ment made for the benefit of the
territorial common school fund
has been disturbed by mining
claims being staked out on this
school section. Whether or not
such staking will be sustained
in court remains to be seen. If it
is. then the gravel which is con
servatively valued at $2 million
will go to private individuals
instead of to the territorial gov
ernment. as was intended. En
actment of my bill would pre
vent any recurrence of that in
the future.
“It is felt,” the Delegate con
cluded, “that the public good
has been endangered by the de
sire for private gain. I want to
suggest to those who have staked
this land that the proper thing
for them to do it to relinquish
their claims without further
controversy. Such action would
be applauded and is the only
right thing to do.”
Alaska Railroad Claims
The Court of Claims last week
denied the federal government’s
motion for a trial on the decision
reached in December on a test
case awarding overtime compen
sation for A.laska Rairload em
ployment.
The test case was brought in
behalf of George D. Poggas, sec
tion foreman of Campbell, in a
suit to recover overtime pay
ment under the 40-hour work
week law passed in 1934. An
administrative ruling was made
that Alaska Railroad employees
did not come under this act and
were not entitled to overtime
compensation. This ruling was
reversed by the Court of Claims
the end of 1950.
If the government decides not
to take the case to the Supreme
Court, some 833 other claimants
would be in line for reimburse
ment estimated between $5 mil
lion and $6 million.
Supplemental Appropriations
President Truman has asked
Congress to appropriate $8 mil
lion for Alaska in a request for
supplemental funds for the 1951
fiscal yenr.
The sum includes $4Vfe mil
lion to replace Alaska Railroad
shop buildings, machinery, roll
ing stock and locomotives de
stroyed by fire at the Anchorage
yards in January of this year,
j The remainder of the supple
mental request amounts to $3J/2
million for highways in the Ton
gass National Forest. Last year
Congress authorized $7 million
for road improvements in the
forest “to promote development
of timber and other resources.”
The 1952 budget includes $3V2
million of the authorized sum
and the supplemental request
for the 1351 fiscal year
would complete the authoriza
tion. “Road improvements and
extensions are essential to the
establishment of pulp plants at
Ketchikan, Juneau and Sitka,
enterprises which will assist in
■ meeting the pulp requirements
! of the nation,” the President’s
message stated. “Funds are re
quested at this time in order to
i permit early action to be taken
on construction of the necessary
highways and roads.”
Rale Increases Filed
Delegate Bartlett has been in
formed by the Federal Maritime
Board that the Alaska Steam
ship Company has filed in
creased rates on fish and whale
meal, in sacks, and on oil, lis'n,
in bulk, applicable to transpor
tation between Seattle and Ta
coma and southeastern and
southwestern Alaska ports, the
rates to become effective April
5.
“On southeastern traffic a flat
rate of twenty-five cents per 100
pounds has been added to the
present rates on fish and whale
meal,” the statement made to
Delegate Bartlett said. “An in
crease of one-half cent per U.S.
gallon has been added to the
present rates on oil, fish, in
bulk.
“As to southwestern traffic a
flat rate of 25 cents has been
added to the present rates on
fish and whale meal applicable
to Cordova, Valdez, Seward and
Yakutat. Twenty cents has been
added to the present rate on the
same commodity for Kodiak and
Seldovia. The rate on oil, fish,
1 in bulk, has been increased one
half cent per U.S. gallon at all
ports.”
Sale of Gold
Congressman Clair Engle of
California has introduced legis
lation in the House which would
have the effect, if enacted, of
having gold seek its own price.
The bill, which is similar to
legislation introduced in previ
ous Congresses, provides that
gold in any form mined within
the United States, its territories
and possessions, including Alas
ka, may be bought, held, sold
or traded upon the open market
within the United States, its ter
ritories and possessions, includ
ing Alaska, for any purpose, if
such gold is mined after passage
of the bill.
Further provision is made
that gold may be exported with
out any restrictions, and that
gold may be imported into the
I market within the United States,
i sold or traded upon the open
I market within hte United States,
its territories and possessions, in-.
' eluding Alaska, for any purpose
! and without any restrictions.
Too often an auto is better
regulated than the man driving
it.
