ANCHORAGE MAKES HOLLER
 AGAINST ACTION os A. E. C

In recent issue of the Anchorage Times the Alaskan Engineering Com mission is taken to task for trying to dispose of the power and telephone plants on short notice. Discussing the action editorially, the Times says: What's the big idea, anyway, about selling or leasing the telephone and electric plants? Does the Alaskan Engineering Commission need the money, or has an offer been made by out-of-town capitalists?
 Yesterday the commission adver- tised the telephone and electric light plants for sale or lease. And this too, after managing them for six years without the breath of sus- picion that they were to be disposed of. The citizens of Anchorage have been given the impression that the commission would continue in charge of affairs until the completion of the Government railroad.
 Naturally the commission has perfect right to sell or lease proper ty of this nature; but being purely municipal affairs it would have been only reasonable to have brought the matter to the attention of the An chorage city council, the same as ii water works.
 Why all this rush to dispose of the telephone and light systems? Ten days is the time limit and ordi- narily the commission insists on talk ing at least ten days in which to sell a horse.
 But here is an investment en- tailing several thousand dollars and should require several weeks of thorough investigation in which the minute details of cost and produc- tion should be carefully figured; all to be disposed of within the redicI- lously short time of ten days.
 Was the city council advised of this sale? We'll say not. But we'll say the taxpayers of Anchorage may rest assured that these same city fathers will have the last word when it comes to granting franchise.
 'Note-It is understood that Mr. Graf, owner of the Seward tele- phone and light plants, ard MT. Hoben, Seward capitalist, lief, fer home this afternoon, after a brief visit in Anchorage. ...~
 The above editorial brought the following reply from MT Gerig. as sistant to the chief engineer:
 Referring to the editorial in The Times of yesterday entitled Whats the Answer, will say the answer is that the Alaskan Engineering Com mission desires to divorce itself from the operation of the utilities in the
The Nenana news., 1921-07-28

towns and communities along the road, and wishes to adhere strictly to the construction and operation of the railroad. This is made more imperative when the difficulty is realized of inducing Congress to make an appropriation for the oper- ation of telephone plant in the town of Anchorage or any other.
 "The question of disposing of these utilities has been discussed with various citizens of Anchorage as we'll as with some of the individ- ual members of the present city council on several occasions during the last eight months; but as no interest in the matter was shown, the commission was led to believe that no one cared to take over same, particularly the telephone and power distribution plants For that reason the commission invited Mir. Graf, of Seward, to come to Anchorage and look over the plant with a view to making bid on it. There was no secrecy about it and MT. Graf is not the first person who came here for that purpose. Last spring MT Mcconnell, of Cordova, was here. Both these gentlemen are in- terested in similar public utilities in their respective home towns and are familiar with the cost of operation. MT. Graf called at the commission office Saturday morning, June IS, looked over the plant and our re- cords and gave us to understand on Tuesday that he would like to make pIOpOSIliuH 1I was IdlSH uSSIuSO to ask for bids so that all who de- sired could bid on the plants. As the commission was anxious to make the change soon, and particularly as early as possible in the new fsc Il year beginning July 1, and as both these gentlemen mentioned satisfied themselves as to the cost of the plants and their operation in less than three or four days, it was thought that ten days time was ample for advertising the same for sale or lease. If the city desires to consider the matter, it will be given the preference, and the commission will gladly postpone the opening of the bids, if necessary, to allow them sufficient time to go into the matter fully.
 'The statement that the commis- sion has been operating the tele- phone and light plants for six years is true It is also true that they op- erated the water plants and the city government during the same period, and it is just as desirable to get rid of the telephone and light plants as 1t was to get rid of these other matters"
