ANS LAND OFFICER
RETURNS FROM MEET
ON LAND WITHDRAWAL
Charles II. Jones, land officer in 1
the native resources division of the.
Alaska Native Service, has returned ,
from Anchorage where he atten-j
ded a meeting on the army’s re-1
quest to withdraw land for use as I
an anti-aircraft gunnery range.
A total of 771,923 acres was
asked by the army in an area near
Gulkana. Various representatives
of the several governmental agen
cies in Alaska attended the meet
ing and after their reports were
heard, the army representative re
quested that the opposed withdraw
ance be held in abeyance by the
Bureau of Land Management.
The abeyance will be in effect
until the army has a chance to in
vestigate the possibility of with
drawing another section of land on
the east side of the Richardson
Highway and north of the Tck
Highway. This later piece is vir
tually devoid of game.
Arguments mainly against the!
withdrawal of the first choice of
land is that game would be des
troyed, native homes are in the
area and 82 natives secure their
livelihood from the area. *
Jones also located new school re
serves at Newhalen, Port Graham,
Ouzinkie and Afognak before re
turning.
