Alaska Has Arrived Says Ken KadOw

FAIRBANKS, (P)-An economy richer than the gold treasures of the past will follow the develop ment of adequate housing in Alas ka, Kenneth Kadow, chairman of the interior departments Alaska field committee, told the city coun7 cil and planning commission in a week end pep-talk.
 He recommended the housing bottleneck be broken by immedi- ate construction of temporary housing for skilled labor.
 He cited these points in support of his optimism:
 Alaska is the last domestic source of II metals the United States is collecting in industrial stockpiles.
 It has two of the worlds best hydroelectric sites - and electro chamical industries will move any where on earth where they can find cheap power.
 The federal government is ready to spend two billion dollars in the next few years in the Territory but even without this adrenalin of dollars, Alaska ''has arrived" he said.
