ALASKA DEVELOPMENT AGAIN
APPEARS TO BE BLOCKED
BY SOLONS
WASHINGTON, July 29, (JP)~
Establishment of an all-Ameri
can newsprint paper industry in
Alaska to compete with the vir
tual monopoly enjoyed by Cana
da, is at a standstill because of
the uncertain status of the Fed
eral Power Commission.
Two groups had asked the com
mission for licenses to build pow
er systems in Southeastern Alas
ka to supply pulp paper mills and
the present commission is reluc
tant to act until it learns how
scon the new five-man commiss
ion, authorized by the last Con
gress, will succeed it. •
The Senate adjourned without
confirming the three men Pres
ident Hoover nominated. The
President is now waiting the opin
ion of the Attorney General as
to whether the power commiss
ion can act and permit him to
make recess appointments.
The production of 335,000 tons
of newsprint annually is contem
plated. each consuming within 50
years. 835,000.000 cubic feet of
timber in the TOn^ass National
Forest. The paper would be shipp
ed to the United States at prices
equal or lower than those estab
lished by the Canadian news
print nroducers.
recently the Federal Trade
Commission found that Canadian
newsoriht cost from $61.50 to
$87 "0 on big lot contracts. It is
estimated that Alaska panel* ca 1
be delivered to New Orleans at
S58 a ton, Cincinnati and Chica
go. $64.40 a ton.
If a new regulatory committee
is appointed during recess the
present commission will not act
on the applications of I. J. Zeller
back and George Cameron, of
San Francisco.
The Zellerback’s plan to develop
about 80.000 horsepower from
plants on six lakes and Cameron
proposes power houses on three
lakes near Juneau.
The engineer of the forestry
service will make a report on the
projecets by September 1 but the
power commission will not act
then if Hoover intends to appoint
its successor before Congress re
convenes in December.
