Determine Expenses-Then Save

Senator Says Territory Gould Supply Quarter
 of Nation 5 Needs

WASHINGTON. Feb. g. Senator Murray tD-MoIt, has cited AL aska as the answer to the needs Of United States -ewsprint consumers, describing it as the most feasible place for immediate expansion of newsprint production"
 The retiring chairman of the Senate Small Business Committee aaid in his final report that 25 per- cent of the nations newsprint needs could be met from development of the Alaskan industry without inter- fering with the conservation pro- gram.
 Murray said Alaska has been little more than q promised land for too long and a newsprint indus try would be an immediately prac- ticeble way to convert some of the promise into reality"
 He estimated that between 20 and 30 million dollars would be needed to establish the necessary mill and w1tei power
 Shortage of labor, inadequate power and the high cost of develop ment were listed by Murray as ma-

 Harvey w Starling, Supervisor of Education, is now enroute to Seward to assist with the removal of the children. Eight staff mem- bers in addition to a doctor and nurse will accompany the group from Eklutna to Sitka.
 Dr. Dale announced that the next trip of the North Star will bring GO students from the Wrangeu In stitute to the Mt. Edgecumbe school. Approximately 400 children will be housed at the new sceool on Japonsk Island when all are assembled from the various sections of the Territory into one central unit.

KNOW YOUR LEGISLATOR Today:

Shortly before the purchase oi Alaska. young Jugoslavian same north from California to work in the first cannery ever constructed in the Territory at Klawock. Marry ing a maiden of the powerful Thlinget Tribe, they become fore hearers of the well-known Peratro- vich families of Southeast Alaska A son, Frank, was born of that un- ion on April 2, 1895, in Klawock' Alaska. History will record him as being among the first of our Alaska born who served in the Territorial Legislature.
 As he went through grade school a teacker noted his scholastic ability, and prevailed upon the par ents to let him continue his high CT education at the Indian Indus trial School at Chemawa, Oregon. This they did, and Frank graduat- sd just in time to enlist in the U. 5. Navy before World War I. H2 served as seaman for two years un- til his honorable discharge in 1919.
 Interested in business education, MT. Peratrovich enrolled in and graduated from the Capitol Busi- ness College in Salem. During these years he played a trumpet with the Salem Symphony Orches- tra under the direction of John R. Sides. He went to Portland where te registered for a years special extension course at the Behke- Walker Business College.
 He had no sooner finished tnis course than he was called to Law r rec. Kansas, to join tte Haskell Indian Team fer a season. This -We.l Known footba.l squad toured the States, winning games from coast to coast-from Yankee Stadium ir New York to Los Angeles, where thev won t cir Anal victory oyel the Coast All-Stars.
 Frank then returned to Klawock wl,ere fishing was the major occu- Daton and for several seasons h. wol k d on seine boats. He finally acquired enough capital to go into business fer himself and opened he Klawock Cash Store, a general merchandise establishment which he has since operated.
 About 1855, while on a trip tc Ketchikan. he met a striking Alas kan girl, Miss Harriet Smith, and year later they were married Mrsr. Peratrovich has her own busi- ness, the Klawock Beauty Shop which sle has forsaken long enough to be with her husband during the Eighteenth Session.
 Ire town of Klawock has elected Frank it's mayor for more thar ten consecutive terms, and from that office is was but a step intf Territorial politics.
 Some years ago the Fisherman'' Union wrote his name cn ballot as Democratic candidate for the House and, while he was ursuccess- fUl in that campaign. he was elect ed and served in the House in 194F and in the Special Session of l946

jor obstacles. But he said it was believed that four mills making use of the pulp timber allotment in the Tongass National Forest area would ease the pressure on newsprint in the United States by one-fourth.
 He recommended legislation cre- ating regional Alaska Authority modelled after the Tennessee Valley Authority.
 Rapid expansion of Alaskan DOW CT through such an Authority would provide strong roots in the Terri tory for both the newsprint indus try and diversified economic ex- pansion," he observed.
 Should the Alaskan forests be us ed for newsprint, Murray added, the products should be made available first to those most in need of it, thus removing from the spot news print market the pressure of some of the myriad small consumers.
 He suggested that some arrange ment might be made for really broad -based financing of one of the mills by small papers and papers with no alternative sources of SUD- ply"
 Urging that special interest and jealous concern with prerogative'  be set aside, Murray said the In- terior, Agriculture, Army and Navy Departments should welcome im- mediate action to establish an AL askan Authority, with focal auton- omy as broad as possible"

hardwood flooring, doors. windows,
furnace motors, bathroom equip

was an ordeal.

six months delay if we had had a
steady flow of materials" MIR. Kern
said.
The first house was completed in
July, 1916, year after the develop
ment was begun. Today 43 houses
are occupied. Thirty -four are OF all
brick construction and the remain
der of cinder block with brick trim.
The homes are of Colonial design
and have five different floor plans.
Overall dimensions are 24a by 81
feet. Each occupies SIS by 125
foot lot.
All have two bedrooms, living
room, dining room, kitchen, bath
and fireplace on the first floor, plus
an unfinished attic suitable for two
additional bedrooms on the second
floor. The attic floor has rock wool
insulation. The houses were approved
for FHA-insured financing with
10 per cent down payment.
To do the job, the Old Dominion

"Big Disappointment"
Mr.. Edelman, though insisting non
profit groups building for their own
members "can make some savings
under normal conditions" admits
that the Front Royal project was
"a big disappointment" owing to
materials shortages and rising costs
in the construction period.
"I don't think anyone can build

With the $25,000 capital the union
