So was Alaska attained with an embarrassing moment in inter- national history.
 
 At the forthcoming session of the Legislature you will see a concen- trated effort on the part of the communities of Alaska to see that their legislators set up some sort of a group to handle the readjust ment period right after the war and 10 promote development of the Ter ritory. Virtually all the towns are now planning their post war actiYi- ties and indications are that strong pressure will be brought upon the Legislature to handle the entire matter under a centralized Terri torial arrangement. More than 40 of the IS states already have set up commissions to handle such problems. Some call them read justment and development cOmmis- sions," others call them something else. but all have the same objec- tive-taking care of their return ing veterans and reconverting their state to meet peace time needs and advancement. Several Alaska towns already have formed readjustment and development groups of their own. You'll probably see them Jell when the Legislature meets.

basic views TO members OF the XII
wants Club at their weekly lunch

Mr.. Fillmore discussed the need
for the change In The Wayne Coun.
ty government. He stated that the
present form OF government was
set up by the State Constitution
one hundred years ago, the Home
rule amendment for cities was cs-
tablished 80 years ago, but tho
form OF government for counties
was never changed.
In order TO establish home rule.
some OF the constitutional offices

ty and SO per cent OF the popula-
ton is within the city limits Of De.
