ARRC Report for
 Fiscal '52 Made at Stockholders Meet

Stockholders of the Alaska Rural Rehabilitation Corporation met last week in Palmer for their annual meeting.
 The annual report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1852, as pre- pared by ARRC Manager James Hurley, revealed a net gain of ap- proximately $1,5O0 from the years operation, a general inn provement in the delinquency of loan accounts, and a Is percent increase in operating loans. The report also took note of a "some- what larger than normal turn over of real estate in the Matan- uSka Valley and a considerable decrease in (ARRC) public activ- ities within the city of Palmer due to incorporation and organi- zation of Palmer as a first class city.
 Ninety-two loans for farm de- velopment and operation were made during the 1852 fiscal year Totalling $96,58732, the 92 loans were itemized as follows: $12,- 737.17 for 13 livestock purchase loans; $25, ,240 for Is construction or improvement loans; $26,451.55 for 35 crop loans; SIP, ,592.50 for II land clearing loans; $13.516.10 for II equipment purchase loans; $3,- 700 in three loans for additional purchase of farm land; and $2,- $50 for conditional sales contracts on equipment.
 Although the report mentioned that an increasing number of farmers are being referred to the bank for capital assistance, 1t also pointed out the considerable de- mand for loans covering longer periods of time, than the banks are able to give.
 An unusually large turnover in the Corporation board of directors was experienced during the 1852 fiscal year. Colonel J. P. John son, general manager of the Alas ka Railroad replaced Colonel Otto F. Olson, who resigned, and pres ently occupies the position of first vice-president of the board. Talk ing the place of his father, the late w. N. Cuddy as secretary to, the board, is D. H. Cuddy. When Governor Ernest Gruening resign ed from the board because of lack of time to properly discharge the! duties of a director, Robert Alt wood, publisher of the Anchorage Times, was appointed. The far mer members of the board, Mads Johansen and Arvid Johnson, re- signed from the board when they moved from Alaska last fall. Two prominent Valley dairymen were appointed in their places: l.. M. DePriest and Victor G. Falk.
 One interesting comment on the Valley generally highlighted the need for tourist accommodations. Despite the development of the tourist business in Alaska it has been necessary to cancel a great number of bookings by travel agencies because of lack of tour ist facilities in the Valley. This is a serious problem as an un- usually high percentage of people visiting Alaska are very interest ed in seeing the Matanuska Val lv. A considerable income from

XMAS SEALS
TO FIGHT TB
History of Christmas Seal
Which Started in 1907
Tells of TB Fight
URGE SUPPORT

TB Christmas Seals fight tuber-
culosis locally, within states, and
nationally. Yet the strength of
the voluntary agency fight against
TB lies in the fact that so many
people are working together in
their local communities. Local
communities are encouraged to
build strong tuberculosis associa-
tions. Ninety-four per cent of the
money raised by the Christmas
Seal Sale is spent in the commun-
ity and state in which it was rails
ed.
The Christmas Seal
In 1907, most people still be-
lieved that TB could not be cured.
But a few doctors in Wilmington,
Delaware, were trying to cure
eight charity patients. Then they
ran out of money. Emily Bissell,
a cousin of one of the doctors, de-
cided to try to raise some money
to help care for these eight pa
tients. She had read of Einar
Holboell, a Danish postal clerk,
who had the idea in 1904 of selling
Christmas Seals to help sick chill
dren. The money was used to
care for children with TB. Emily
Bissell led the first American
Christmas Seal Sale in 1907. She
hoped to raise $500 to help treat
the eight patients. She raised $3,-
900. And so it has gone ever
since. The pennies spent for
Christmas Seals have added up to
make the dollars which have help
ed to reduce the TB death rate by
almost 80 per cent. Large or
small every contribution counts.
The important thing is that mil
lions of people unite every year to
fight tuberculosis by buying the
Christmas Seals bearing the
double-barred cross. Before her
death in 1948, Emily Bissell looked
back upon her years Of service in
many fields and said this about the
results of the Christmas Seal Cru
