 Potato contracts will cover the period from September 1, 1851, to June 30, 1852. To facilitate bid ding and contracting the Army has broken down the invitations for potato crops to cover separate quantities for each month at each station.
 Producers this year for the first time will be able to submit bids by item and by military station. One producer might thus seek only to furnish the carrots for the Port of Whittier and could submit such a bid.
 This year the Army will act as central purchasing agency for all installations located south of the Alaska Range, including Air Force produce needs. North of the range the Air Force will be the purchasing agency.
 Bid forms may be obtained at the office of the Contracting Off, cer, Alaska General Depot, Fort Richardson, Alaska.

Salmon Concentration Plan


 The proposed plan of the De- fense Fisheries Administration for curtailment of salmon fishing in the Bristol Bay, Alaska Pen insula, Port Moller, Chignik and Cook Inlet areas during the 1851 fishing season has been aban- doned through a decision an- nounced this week by Secretary of the Interior Chapman.
 The so-called concentration ep1an which contemplated a i- censing system to plants and fishermen based on operations of certain recent years would have limited the total units of fishing gear in operation. It was vigor- ously protested following an an- nouncement of the proposal some weeks ago.
 The decision against making the plan effective in 1851 was 7 reached following hearings held several weeks ago in Seattle and subsequent to meeting held last week among Defense Fisher ies Administration and other De- partment of the Interior officials, c. L. Anderson, director of Alas ka's Department of Fisheries, Governor Ernest Gruening and Delegate Bartlett.
 The press release announcing the decision stated that an lex banded concentration plan will be considered for the 1852 sea- son, dependent entirely upon the state of the emergency existing in 1952".
 Health Appropriation
 The House, in passing the ap- propriation bill last week for the Federal Security Agency, allow ed the full budget request of ST. 234,000 for disease and sanitation control and investigations in Alaska.
 The funds, are sought to con- tinue the cooperative program started during the 1949 fiscal year whereby the Public Health Service and the Territorial De- partment of Health conduct the health activities in the investiga- ton, prevention, treatment and control of diseases in the Terri tory.
 Alaska Bills
 Four of Delegate Bartlett's ouse-approved bills were re- ported favorably last week to the upper house by the Senate Judi ciary Committee.
 The four measures are so- called private relief bills and

 Post Offices
 Delegate Bartlett has recom- mended the appointment of Mrs. Ed Peratrovich as postmaster at Klawock to succeed the late Mrs. Emma Demmert.
 In addition he submitted his recommendation to the Post Off, flee Department for the appoint- ment of Paul H. Housand as the postmaster at Cape Pole. This office is southeast of Sumner Strait in the First Division, about p miles by water south of Point Baker.
