EVACUATION—

the campaign with a worthwhile i
| prize to be offered by each stox-e !
during the last week of February. ;
"Rusty" and liuss Dow gave
a report on the Chamber's pro
posed recreation area at Lazy !
mountain. Mr. Dow said that
after investigating the area he
did not believe it would offer
much opportunity for a com
mercial venture as it is "pretty
much in the path of the famous
Matanuska wind which keeps
■ it almost entirely bare of snow." j
He added he could recommend
it for cross-country runs and as
a place for a little skiing.
Fabian Blom, who operates a ,
poultry farm here, made a brief
talk on marketing problems at!
the meeting Wednesday and.
urged Valley support of local
products. He produced 5,000 doz
en eggs last year, he said, adding
| that he had encountered consid- j
erable difficulty in selling the J
eggs in Palmer. He summed up.
his appeal for support of Valley
merchants in selling local pro
! duce by stating that “when you
! buy from me, then I can buy from
! you.”
President Hurley distributed
placards and tickets in support
1 of Miss Nona Wineck, candidate
for the Queen of the Fur Rendez
j vous. The Chamber is not spon
soring any Queen candidate but
i will lend its support in favor of
Miss Wineck, Mr. Hurley said.
In the membership drive that is
now under way. President Hurley
said there are 51 paid up mem
berships. The Chamber’s goal is
100 members.

TEACHERS PROTEST—
(Continued from Page 1)
As a part of the letter-writing
program here this week, the Pal
mer teachers also wrote to War
ren Dahlstrom, president of the
Anchorage Education Association,
delegating him to represent the
Palmer Teachers’ Association at
the territorial legislative session
when the bill for the teachers’ sal
aries will come before that body.
"What we are fighting for is
that salary adjustments for
teachers in the territory should
be based on the figures as giv
en in Dr. Montgomery's sur
vey/' Mr, Hudock stressed. He
pointed out that "according to
that survey wages in the terri
tory are way out of line wit£
Seattle."
The $300 per year raise for
teachers was proposed by the
Executive committee of the
Alaska Education Association.
The local teachers' association
at a meeting this week voted to
support the Anchorage Educa
tion Association in its demand
that salary adjustments be
made on a cost of living basis.
A committee appointed by Mr
Hudock to assist the teachers in
composing, typing and sending
out the more than 400 letters was
comprised of Gottfried Stevahn.
