Leaf Market Gets Extension

Roscoe Coleman, local tobac
conist, represented the one buyer
markets on the North Caroline
Border Belt at a meeting witt
the Bright Belt Warehousemer
Associations sales committee j.
Lumberton last Friday night and
succeeded in securing an add
tional week of selling time for
the smaller markets.
Originally scheduled to close
after the September ii sales, the
committee listened to reports
from Coleman and others regard
ing the need for more time on the
Border Belt and approved the ad
ditional week. The Tabor City
market and other one buyer mar
kets therefore will sell with full
sets of buyers through Septem'
Der 81.
The warehousemen here hac
previously notified all buying
concerns that some 30 percent OF
the crop would still not be sold
on September IA and that the 10
cal market would therefore nor
close on that date.
The Friday night meeting II
Lumberton was technically pro
test against that closing date anc

There were some markets wnc
insisted that two addltlona
weeks would be necessary ou,
Coleman received their approVa
of a one week compromise shoul'
the indications point to that 2
mount as being the maximum tn

After the sales committee no.
what thew would do, they an
nounced to the one buyer Marker
representatives that one week %
additional selling time would De
recommended for the Border Bet
n,srkets This ruling effects
both North and South Carolina
Border Belt markets.
In past years, efforts OF the one
b,,ver markets to continue open
sfter the regular close of Sales

sen+ation because the prolonged
se1l;no was not recommended by
the Bright Belt Warehouseme n: 5
A ASSOCIATION. However, sales TINS
uesr have the approval of the
association and all present buy

The Board members however, offered Sundborg the opportunity to resume his former position as General Manager of the Board at a salary of $12OOO per year contrary to an act by the Territorial Legis lature setting the ADB managers salary at $75oO. The Governor receives s10o00 per year. This to our way of thinking is pure unadulterated pork barrel ing in typical and fragrant manner.
 We have said beforehand we say it again-as n private citizen George Sundborg worth less than S50OO year in the last private position he held. In our opinion he has improved one iota and we do not think he is worth any part of $12ooo to the taxpayers of Alaskal
 Under it's original director, Henry "Esky" Clark high caliber man. who, incidentally, worked for s65oo year. the ADB was kept clear of politics and worked diligently at the purpose for which it was created As result the Board had the respect and the support of all the people of Alaska. And as a result of Cruenng machine meddling we no longer have Henry Clark but George Sundborg, under whom it became political organization and has completeiy lost its effectiveness and respect and has failed to accomplish anything except the spending of thousands of hard-earned dollars of the taxpayers money
 Perhaps we are od-fashoned, but we still have the habit of wanting to know and asking what do we get and how much will it cost before spending our money We think the same principle should be annlied to the administration of public affairs and bv this token we thnk the members of the ADB should be held to answer for their acton It is interesting to note, in passing, that only those newspapers in Alaska which branded by Governor Henry Gruening as the axis press carried any news of Sundborgs appointment and salary.
 It is obvious by their actions that the Board members intend to keep the AIDE functioning a personally controlled agency of Governor Gruening. We firmly convinced the people o Alaska recognize this fact and will act accordingly.
 It is also apparent that the new Board members are under full control of the Administration and will continue the squanderng of the taxpayers funds ap proprated for them in the wild and unproductve manner as before.
 They would do well to pause for moment to consider the following fact When the idea of the Alaska Visitors Association first introduced In Alaska it met with enthusiastic support of civic groups large business firms, and the people of the Territory Immediately after George Sundborg was named as a member of the temporary board of the AVA interest in the group dropped completely and the plan is dying due to the fact the people will not contribute money to the AVA to match the S4oooO appropriated by the last session of the Legislature If the Alaska Development Board were forced to function on the principle we feel IL would pc as dead as dodo within one month

 complained over the phone to as- sistant Secretary of Defense Anna Rosenberg that the Defense De- partment wasn't getting enough credit for it's painstaking work in formulating the S6O,000,000, ,O00 de- fense budget.

Some time ago carried editorial in regards to the membership of the Alaska Development Board and pointing out that the effectiveness of the Board had been greatly diminished since George Sundborg had made it nothing but publicly financed publicity agency for the Gruenng Administration.
 It is not the intention of this paper to launch a personal attack upon any man, regardless of his political convictions, the other hand we will not hesitate to do battle the issues, long as we believe the welfare of Alaska is involved, regardless of how often any individual appears in connection with the issues.
 Our former editorial stated that we believe George Sundborg was a detriment to the Alaska De- veopment Board and should be removed from control if the Board to be effective along the lines for which it was created under the guidance of the new members. We have reason to believe that as result of that editorial George Sundborg was offered the choice of giving up his position Assistant Gov ernoro or retiring from his position Consultant to the Alaska Development Board.
