Council of St. Thomas be-
tween Mrs. Irene Bayne, Hen
ry O. Creque and Arthur
Boreham for the seat left va
cant by Roy P. Gordon will be

cate, according to the Home

Although many country vot-
ers express the view that the
battle is between Mrs. Bayne
& Mr.. Creque, the third candi-
date in the race, Arthur Bore
ham, who has been Waging a
quiet campaign, is believed to
be pulling votes from the two
other candidates and gaining
in strength.
1T was believed that Mrs.
Bayne and Mr.. Creque would
divide most Of the Northside
votes, and that Mr.. Boreham
and Creque would split the
east. Mrs. Bayne's supporters
predict that she will make her
best showing in the Nisky-
Bourne Field area which has
the largest number of voters.

Establishment for the first time of a three-man Production and Marketing Administration Com mittee to administer the Agricul- tural Conservation Program in Alaska has been announced by Secretary of Agriculture, Charles F. Brennan.
 Ralph B. Stimple, a farmer from Fairbanks Alaska, has been appointed chairman. Other mem bers of the committee will be selected in the near future The new committee will have head quarters at the office of the Ex- tension Director at College, Alas ka.
 In announcing the establish ment of a committee, Secretary Brannan paid tribute to the fine working relationship existing be- tween the Extension Service and PIMA in Alaska. He explained that while the farmer-committee system is a new method of PIMA program administration in Alas ka, ACP will continue to be de- veloped and operated in coopera- tion with Extension and other Territorial and Federal agencies, such as the Soil Conservation Ser vice and the Forest Service.
 While the Agricultural Conser- vation Program is the only PIMA program operating in Alaska at the present time, responsibility of the new committee will include administration of other PIMA programs when and if they be- come applicable.
 One of the first duties of the Alaska PIMA Committee will be set up three so-called counties" and to provide for the election of county PIMA committees to ad- minister the program locally. Ac- cording to present plans, one county will include the farming area in the neighborhood of Fair banks, one will be the area around Palmer, and the third will include Homer and the farms on the Kenai Peninsula.
 AS in the States, each county committee in Alaska will be elect ed by local farmers who are par ticipating in ACP. The elections will be held sometime before the first of the year. The county PIMA committee will share offices with the Extension agent.
 One of the most important ad- vantages to be gained through farmer administration of the Agricultural Conservation Pro- grame," the Secretary said in his announcement, lis that farmer thinking and experience can be brought to bear effectively on all phases of the program, from it's formulation stage to the actual conservation accomplishments of each individual farm.
