tBY YOUR GARBAGE
 WE SHALL KNOW YOU, R0UWENS WARES

According to the Alaska Com piled Laws of 1949, Sections 40- 9-2 and 40-9-3, no garbage shall be dumped within 200 feet of any highway. Failure to comply with this law is a misdemeanor, and those apprehended are subject to-: fines of not less than $l0 nor more than $50, not less than 5 days in jail nor more than 25, or both.
 Such is the warning of Deputy Marshall Bill Bouwens this week. The warning was prompted by continued violation of the gar bage dumping law at the local garbage dump near the Matanus- ka Bridge. Bouwens says that it is necessary for persons diSposing of their trash and garbage to drive over the bluff and down on- to the river bank in order to dump it beyond the 200 foot linn it.
 According to report, the Ter ~ritorial Department of Health re- gently made an inspection of the local dump and so berated the Palmer garbage collector for con- ditions found there that the gar bage collector paid $110 to have the refuse bulldozed back within the legal limit. Two days later he returned to find a huge pile of garbage dumped right next to the road.
 From now on", BouWens said, ''any persons who violate the gar >age dumping law are going to picked up."
 Already BouWens has identifi- ed the garbage of two viQlators. These were merely given warn ings. Future violations will be met with legal action, he says.

HoIger Larson Tells Kiwanians About
 Fish Rehabilitation

Holger Larson of the Fish and Wild Life Service finally kept his appointment with the Kiwan- is Club Monday noon after two postponements due to the press ot duties elsewhere.
 Kiwanis members had been anxiously awaiting his discussion of the rehabilitation of fish in lakes around this area. According to Larsen, such rehabilitation in the Anchorage -Matanuska Val ley area is first on the list of FWS< projects. Only this year, he said, has money been made avail able for this work.
 He stressed the fact that many lakes in the area are unsuitable for restocking because of insuf- ficient oxygen to permit survival of fish during the winter when the lakes are frozen. The main reason for the depleted supply of fish is the slow rate of reproduc- ton under Alaskan climate con- ditions. The rate at which fish are taken out of the lakes ex- ceeds the rate of reproduction.
 The idea of locating fish hatch cries up here is an impossible one because of the prohibitive costs involved, Larson said. In Alaska, the cost of each fish produced in a hatchery would be so great that fishing would be luxury. A bet ter idea proposed by the FWS agent involved the trapping out of<-suckers which feed on fish eggs in the lakes.
 Concerning the conservation of game, Larson stated that preda- tor control had helped more than any other means in saving the caribou herds.
 He praised the sportsmen of the Matanuska Valley area, saying tl.s.eat they cooperated with the

 During their stay, approxi- mately two thousand feet of movie film was used in both slow motion and natural speeds. We kept two cameras going on each ice fall', Machetanz said. In ad- dition, stills in color and black and white were made.
 Following the breakup much of their time was spent filming the Surprise Glacier and Inner Lake regions. "Seegoo", their fa- nous white dog helped pack over

 Machetanz reported one of their most vivid impressions was from the tremendous noise ere ated by stranded icebergs disint- egrating on dry land. Icebergs' 60 to 80 feet high crashed to the ground without warning as they broke apart. The films will be processed to be used on future lecture tours contemplated by the couple.

MAYOR CARL MEIER BLAZES TRUCKING TRAIL TO JUNEAU

The local trucking firm of Carl Meier is embarked on a pioneer hauling trip this week as the city's mayor started for Juneau Wednesday with a load of furni- ture.
 The trip is special one, being made more to find out what the route is like than to establish any commerce between Alaska's fu- ture capitol and the present one. Meier is making the trip to move the Clark McHurons' furniture to their new home in Douglas, near Juneau, where the Bureau of Re clamation's new geologist for Alaska has his headquarters.
 Msier hoped to catch the Fri day ferry out of Haines and the Monday ferry on the return trip. With luck, he thought he might be back in Palmer for next week s Council meeting.

After Trading 'Hot'' Gun in Palmer, Youth Held on Two Charges

Held in the Federal jail in An chorage this week on charges of illegal entry into the Territory from Canada and grand larceny was Gordon Bowen, 20, of Victor ia B. C.
 Young Bowen was picked up by the Highway Patrol in Valdez Sunday upon a complaint of grand larceny signed in the U. S. Commissioners Court, Wasilla, by George A. Watson.
 The larceny charge involved the theft of gun August g. Ac- cording to the Highway Patrol, Bowen traded the stolen gun for another from a Palmer business house. He then sold the second gun to truck driver.
 It was necessary for the High way Patrol to locate the truck driver enroute to his northerly destination to advise him that his purchase was hot.
 All property was recovered ex- cept the $50 which Bowen got from the truck driver.
 Bowen was to have a~hearing in U. S. Commissioners Court later this week.

Federal Civil Defense Subsidy Exceeding 50se Expected for AIosko

There is likelihood that some Federal money will be available shortly for matching purposes, the Territorial Director of Civil Defense said this week. "This money may be matched with Ter ritorial or local funds, provided the expenditure is recognized by the Federal Government as be- ing a proper Civil Defense ex- penditure and the articles pur- chased meet Federal specified tions."
 The basis for Federal matching is normally 50b. Because of its unique position in the defense set up, this percentage might be increased for Alaska.
 It is the policy of the Territorial Department of Civil Defense that within it's means and subject to its approval, it will match 5096 of the amount remaining after de- ducting the Federal contribution the local municipality putting up the remainder. For example, an item costs $1,000.00. Suppose the Federal Government puts up 70% or $700.00. Of the remaining $30000 the Territorial Depart ment will put up $150.00 and the municipality $l50.00.
 If for any reason the Territor- ial Department of Civil Defense fails to approve the request of a local Director for matching funds, the local Director may re-submit his request, providing that the To- cal municipality is willing and has funds available to meet the entire remaining cost.
 In any request for organiza- ton equipment, local Civil De- fense Directors will certify that funds are available to meet that portion of the cost to be borne by the local government.
 Such requets will contain a des- cription of the article to be pur- chased, it's FCDA item number, the quantity desired, the unit cost, and the total cost.
 Requests for organizational equipment for fire, warning, res cue and other services and for training should be submitted promptly. Medical supplies al ready have been requisitioned.
