JACKSON STILL SELLS MILK

Although Judge Anthony Di- mond has granted the injunction asked by the Matanuska Valley Farmers Co-Operating Associa- tion to restrain six member dairy men from selling milk to Alaska Dairy, Inc, papers have not yet been served on the six and Alaska Dairy apparently is still collecting milk from the six Valley shippers.
 James Wilson, general manager of the MVFCA, said on Tuesday that the six dairymen, Arthur Holbrook, Leonard Moffitt, Ernest Harrington, A. A. Rempel, Arvid
 Johnson and Frank McAuister, were delivering all milk produced on their farms to the Coop. There's nothing new to print all six are now bringing their milk to the Coop" Mir. Wilson asserted. -~s'
 George Jackson, manager of the Alaska Dairy, Inc, denied that
 assertion on Wednesday. Cues toned as to his present source of milk, Mir. Jackson stoutly main- tained that he was still receiving daily deliveries from nine Val ley shippers, (Three dairymen

ARR Finds RaiIbus
 Too Costly, To Halt Oneration On Jan. 30

Ending an eight months expert ment in rail transportation, eff fective Jan. 30, rail bus service between Palmer and Anchorage will be discontinued, it was an- nounced this week by E. J. Kunz, traffic manager of The Alaska Railroad.
 Railroad officials earlier had been conducting survey of rail bus service with an eye toward pairing expenses on the too-costly operation. Questioned about the plans on Monday, Jan. 9, l.. A. Moore, assistant to the general manager, said the Railroad man. agement still had no plans for abandonment of the run.
 At that time, MT. Moore indi- cated he thought it might be pos sible to change railbus schedules somewhat, in order to avoid pay ment of overtime to employees. He blamed the overtime pay required by the existing schedule as pri- marily responsible for a loss which he said amounted to "eight or nine hundred dollars a month" /"
 However, later in that same week, Kunz announced in Anch- orage newspapers that the run would be abandoned at the end of the month. The daily freight schedule will be maintained.
 In his letter of announcement addressed to the Valley Frontiers man, Mir. Kunz wrote:
 "The Railroad very much re- grets the necessity of this action as we feel the service was of con- siderable value to those few that made use of it. However we have found, after an eight month trial, that the volume of traffic does not justify further operation of the railbuS."

To combat the belligerent atti- tude of motorists toward Alaska Railroad trains at Eklutna cross ing on the. Palmer Anchorage Highway, present stop signs will be moved farther back along the road, L. A. Moore, public rela- tions head, said this week. How ever the ARR engineering staff is throwing it's collective brow over the problem of how far back.
 We're afraid if we get 'em a little too far back" MT. Moore commented, "the average motor ist will forget he's seen them be- fore he gets to the crossing. We're working it out very care fully, in order to avoid that problem, too"

Who's trying to incorporate this town and who said we want ed to incorporate it, is what I want to know?" queried Chamber of Commerce member Neal Wright when president Clair Stock asked for matters of new business at yesterdays meeting.
 And although the following 40 minutes of discussion led to no answer to MT. Wright's question it did lead to a motion, by Jack Maze, that committee be appoint ed to study city incorporation, and that it bring a full report of that study, complete with figures, to the Feb.

Recommendations for seed var ieties of cereal crops for planting this spring in the Matanuska Val ley were included this week in a report of recent tests of cereal crops at the Matanuska Experi-
 1ent Station. The recommends tions were listed in a release giv- en by s. c. Litzenberger, agrono- mist.
 For grain crops, Mir. Litzen- berger suggests planting Olli Bar ley, Gopher, Climax or Swedish Select oats, and Chogot wheat. For hay or silage crops, the agron- omist recommends Climax or Swedish Select oats (with= peas) and Trapmar barley.
 In addition to endorsing these varieties, found by station tests to be best suited for Valley con-

figures and on the basis of the number of professional teachers and workers on the school staff. Such division of funds would mean that every school which im- proved its status would be, receiv- ing greater share of the tobac- co tax fund. s4
 The tobacco tax has proved an unexpectedly good source of school revenue. More than $290,- 900 has been collected in the first six months. it has been effective and the annual take is expected to run as high as $500,000.
 The tax money must be used for building repair or for the. con- .struction of new buildings. It need not be used in the current year, but can be banked until the sum is large enough to finance a schools planned construction.

Tobacco Tax May Give Palmer School $2I,OOO Year

The Palmer school district stands to collect about $21, ,0OO an- nually, if a recommendation for distribution of the tobacco tax money, made at superintend- ent's meeting in Juneau last week is accepted by the: territorial board of education in May. The superintendents formulated plan for distribution of the money, but it must be accepted by the terri torial board before it can be put into practice.
 The recommendation, approved unanimously by the g superin- tendents in attendance at the meeting, would give an outright grant of at least 5000 10 every incorporated school in the terri tory. :--,
 The remainder of the money in the fund would be divided on the basis of average daily attendance
