PROCLAMATION

The following proclamation has
been issued by Gov. Gruening:
Whereas, John James Audubon
has made distinguished contribu-
tons to American life and art
through his paintings of American
birds and mammals; and
Whereas. the journals of his ex-
plorations in the American wilder
ness afford rare insight into the
problems of the pioneers; and
Whereas, Audubon was among the
first to express concern about the
destruction of our nations wildlife;
and
Whereas. a commemorative orga-
nization which bears his name is
carving on a continuing campaign
to conserve our natural resources;
and
Whereas. Alaska is fortunate IN
still possessing important species
of wildlife and in fact every species
present here since the acquisition
of Alaska in 1867, while not a few
species have become extinct in the
forty-eight states; and
Whereas. Alaskans wish to pre-
serve these great natural assets for
future generations; and
Whereas. the year 1851 offers an
opportunity to signalize that desire
by paying a tribute to the greatest
of American pioneer naturalists and
artists who died January 27, 1851;
Now, therefore, I, Ernest Gruen-
ing, Governor of the Territory OF
Alaska, do hereby declare the week
of January 21-27, 1851, to be Audu-
bon Centennial Week and do urge
the observance of said week by al
interested organizations and indi-
viduals.

Ill., 5. NOT INTERESTED
in TAIYA OR KITIMAT|
SAYS CHAS. WILSON

The Juneau Chamber of Com
merce received a reply late yester-
day in response to a telegram sent
to Charles E. Wilson, director of the
office of Defense Mobilization, re-
garding the possible Taiya project
near Skagway.
Wilson'S reply read: with refer
cnce to your message of January
:, 1851, have made inquiry and
md there is no present intention
nd no likelihood the near future
hat the United States Government
Gill need or support power and
tGminum plants at either Taiya or
Xitimat."
The Chambers inquiry was I'm
lorstand that extensive and COM
.)'cte plans for great aluminium
liant development at Dyea near
5kagway, Alaska, have been shelved
in favor of plant near Kitimat, Brit
ish Columbia, an inferior and ac-
tually more vulnerable site in same
general area just south and east of
Alaskan border for reason that
5kagway area is not defensible. We
believe that such decision and rea-
son for shelving IS incredible and
we fear constitutes a policy that
will greatly disturb all of Alaska
and West Coast. We respectfully
rye that immediate investigation
be undertaken to ascertain if such
policy exists and if SO that it be
reversed. Acknowledgement and
reply urgently requested
The Chamber is continuing eff
forts to get the true facts of the
case and is contracting Aubrey Sim
mons of Whitehorse, Member of
