mental pea crops show that
tome varieties far exceed state
side yields. He also pointed out
that danger of losing the qual

was postponed for an executive
session to be set for a later
date.
After its final reading. Or
dinance 107 dealing with the is
suance of checks without funds
r credit was approved by the ,
council.
Council heard the first read- ;
ng of the ordinance dealing
with the abatement of public
nuisances on private property, i
The proposed legislation would ;
give the city manager author- j
zation to order the abatement j
of the nuisance, and if the
. wner does not take care of it
.n the time allotted, the man
ager would carry out the re
quirements. with the cost to be
charged against the property
owner.
A motion was passed author
zing the city manager to exe
cute the sale and memorandum
' f sale of the 300 KW generator
to MEA for $15,000 in street
ighting service and $3,500 to
go to Matanuska Maid, Inc., for
ts equity in the generator.
It was also moved that the
city notify MEA that, effective
May 1. the city desires applica
tion of credit against their
monthly street light billings.
The motion was carried.

..ghting contract with MEA.
providing for three additional
street lights to be placed on Co
op Avenue between Railroad
Street and Walker Street, was
approved.
A motion was passed author
izing Councilman Geiwitz to be

council member who attended
the meeting, quoted Outside
prices ten years ago as varying
between $120 and $145 a ton.
depending on quality.
It was pointed out that the i
vines of the pea crop can be I
salvaged for silage and fodder.
Eugene Reid, District 7 leg- j
islator and local potato farmer, j
said that he believed sufficient i
acreage would be available for I
the project, but that reaction j
from growers would depend on |
economic feasibility—would it j
pay them to switch to vege- I
tables?
John Alcantra, aide to Gov- '
ernor Egan, visited the meeting
briefly, and mentioned that i
100,000 pounds of institutional i
French fries are sold monthly:
in the Railbelt area. Dearborn i
