House Group
To Alaska on
Land Claims
(Continued from Page One)
upon the claims of land held un
der "possessory" rights by natives.
The bill calls fo: a revolving fund
of $40-million to, the bill states,
“. . . provide the natives of Alaska
credit and other assistance suffi
cient to permit the adequate utili
zation of their lands, the develop
ment of productive activities, and
the maintenance of an adequate
standard of living.”
The bill is designed to adjudicate
claims of land held now for commer
cial and mining use and by other
established rights through the Uni
ted States paying cash for the land
in question, or settling other land
on the native community or individ
ual. As the bill now reads, claim
ants may accept cash in lieu of
lands, but only in special cases
will they be forced to do so.

NEWS
BEST TIME EVER
Everyone, both young and old,
seem to agree this morning that
the “Ghost Walk” Hallowe’en party
sponsored by the Douglas Lions Club
last evening was the finest thing
that has happened in Douglas civic
^ents.
Almost everyone of Douglas, par
ents and children, and the mojor
ity of the residents of Douglas
Highway were in attendance filling
the local school gym and basement
rooms to capacity all evening.
More than 150 little children, all
in costumes and mavJtfc, ‘‘some
beautiful to behold,” or that would
’scare you to death” marched in
a "Ghost Walk" led by band lead
er Miss Betty LeFiles and the school
Land. The parade marched several
times-snakewise around the hall and
was judged by Tom Cashen and his
committee. A few of the prize win
ners were little Miss McHuron,
shortest girl; Jimmy Snyder, short
est boy; Helen Mcllhardy, tallest
girl; Ronnie Rusher, tallest boy;
Butch Fleek, boy’s fanciest costume.
Other prizes for costumes were miss
ed because of the confusion and the
hidden identities.
One of the two door prizes, a wrist
watch, was awarded to Master Den
nis Rice, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ray
Rice. Girls door prize was award
ed to Miss Barbara White.
Following the awarding of prizes,
each child in the parade'was given
a dime and a large treat bag, then
was free to play carnival the rest
of the evening with the fish-pond
in charge of Ed Deitz; the ball
throw in charge of Mark Jensen;

For Mining Future
in Southeast Alaska
(Continued from Page One)
out that its high percentage of ti
tanium which has been an obstacle
to the development of the deposits,
may turn out to be an asset since
many uses have been found for
the metal. He looks for iron de
velopment in the Haines and Snet
ishnin areas within the next ten or
15 years, hi said.
Tulsequah Development
The development program of the
Canadian Consolidated Mining and
Smelting Co., at Tulsequah, B.C.,
has uncovered good ore bodies,
Stines related. He thought there
was a possibility that the Ground
Hog Basin area back of Wrangell,
which carries lead and zinc values,
might tie in with the same ore
belt. At the time of the Wrangell
: discoveries the ore was too low
| grade for the price then.
"Development of prospects into
producing mines takes time, money
and talent,” the engineer concluded.
Postal Surveys
Sheldon told of the postal surveys
being conducted in Anchorage, Fair
banks, Juneau and Ketchikan. He
outlined the proposed pickup and
delivery service for Juneau and
said that if his report is accepted
and action taken Juneau will have
tiro service early next year.
He pointed to the need of a star
delivery route for the residents
along the Glacier Highway and the
lack of adquate street signs in
Juneau.
Sheldon touched upon some of the
results of the postal inspectors in
vestigations such as the $13,800
shortage discovered at the Pt. Bar
row post office, the appointment
of the new postmaster there, and
current investigations being made
at the Anchorage post office.
Guests were Leo H. Saarela of the
Territorial Mining Department,
Philip Hale of the Public Housing
Authority, and Emery Pott, An
chorage insurance man.
Rowland announced that there
was a poslbility of an evening
meeting next Thursday to hear the
Congressional delegation if it could
be arranged.
Beef Slaughtering
Plants Must Sell
To Armed Forces
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1—(A—'The
government said today that federal
ly-inspected slaughterers will be
ordered next month to set aside
part of their beef for the armed
I services.
Price Director Michael DiSalle
said this is necessary because the
armed services face a severe meat
shortage.
Under the plan the slaughterers
will have to give priority to the
armed services when their kill ex
ceeds a specified percentage of
their 1950 volume.
The set-aside will be made up of
the three top grades of beef—prime,
choice and good.
