 'The community of Palmer is shocked to learn that during your absence the board of administra- tion, of which you are chairman, has unfrozen moneys to satisfy an appropriation for a new terri torial building, although the monies are badly needed for edu- cational purposes of an emer- gency measure.
 Your frequently expressed in- tention to leave this, and other unnecessary funds, frozen during the territory's financial plight, is convincing of the fact that the board acted without your pres ence.
 "The people are further dis mayed to learn that the board has directed the new capitol building, as it is designated in southeast ern papers, to be built in Juneau. Such action is widely known to be directly contrary to the wishes of the legislature and contrary to the expressed wishes of an over whelming majority of the people. The bill passed the legislature and was accompanied by an un- qualified directive of the house that the building be built north of the Gulf of Alaska. Such ac- ton was, of course, not a part of the act for the reason that it was intended to reserve some discre- ton to the board, but it constitut- ed a mandate as to general area. barn, to be used as storage. Board members voted to rent that one ]:
Valley frontiersman., 1950-05-19

For the board to ignore this mandate of the people and arbi- trarily select Juneau without any apparent public justification is an unforgivable breach of the trust placed in the board by one entire body of our legislature.
 'Unexplainable extravagance also is seen in the unauthorized spending of over $60,OOO in tax payers money, including citizens of Palmer, for land acquisition, particularly in the face of written offers of free land from Palmer and other deserving cities north of the Gulf
 "Al these matters are we'll known to the board members and may be reviewed on inspecting the record. Protests against this action and communications favor ing Palmer are on file from our neighboring city, Anchorage, as we'll as all cities in this Division and major cities in the Fourth and Second Division, including some in Southeastern itself.
 We beg of you to call these protests to the attention of thef board with your published recom- mendation that a site be selected north of the Gulf of Alaska, or in the preferred alternative, that the matter be at least held in abeyance until the people shall have had an opportunity to vote on the question, as is the followed democratic practice.
 With statehood seen in the near future, the people are en- titled to decide the seat of gov ernment of the new state. Large expenditures for permanent ac- commodation of Alaska's officials, decided by small clique prej udiced in favor of a certain To- cality for undisclosed reasons, is illegal and undemocratic.
 Tt may be stated to the board, in support of your demand, that the people of Palmer will find it necessary immediately to call upon the other cities that have announced the same sentiment, to assist in preventing this miscar- riage of public trust, by court ac- ton and all other means.

 CRIPPLED CHiL DREN ASSO. The Palmer Chapter of the Alaska Crippled Chi1dren's Associ ation is a member of the Palmer Community Chest and will share in the funds now being raised by the Chest drive. In line wi tn the Chests policy of fami1iarizing its contributors with the activities of member agencies, brief outline of the A.C IA. is here submi tied. The association is so we'll known that this may be repetitious to many readers, but perhaps newcomers to the Valley will be intere sted.
 The Al aska Crippled Children's Associa- tion's biggest job is raising money for the Crippled Childrenis program of the Alaska Department of Health. Funds raised in Alaska for this purpose are matched by federal funds from the U. s. Children BTea eau. Last year the A.C .C 4. raised $25, 1000. .OO for this progr am, which, matched with $25, ,ooo.oo federal money gave a working capital of $50, ,ooo.oo to the progr am. In addition, the A.C.C.A. gave $4, ,ooo.73 to the Mt. Edgecumbe Hospital at Sitka, familiar to many valley fami- lies whose children have received care there. At Mt. Edge cumbe, also, A.C.C.A. volunteers bring games and handiwork, ASo0 oO NllC SA440 Cl4S anu LII LID C1 uO- tion. One Valley boy alone, victim of polio who has spent several years in the hospital, has received over BIO, ,OOO.oo worth of care.
 On December 24, l949, Governor Gruening officially designated the A.C.C.A. as the Central Polio Committee of Al aska and Custodian of the 5oS share of polio don- ations raised throughout Alaska during the annual March of Dimes campaign. The A.C.C.A. is also affiliated with the Ma tional Society for Crippled Children and Adults, Inc. which sponsors the annual Easter Seal Sale. l949 pr oceeds from this sale netted Alaska $lo, ,4o4.25. Another money raising enterprise of the associa- tion is the Guided Cage, a shop in An chorage manned by volunteer workers. In addition to the above, the A.C GA. seeks help through it's local chapters, of which there are approximately twenty-five in the Territory. The Palmer Chapter, head ed by Mrs. Victor Johnson, Mrs. Max Sher- rod and Mrs. Norbet Swoboda, received $35o.oO from the Chest last year.

Because his wife suffers from

to give it a try.
