Moose Makes Nuisance of
Himself Just 8 Blocks from

ANCHORAGE, Up George
Cook, whose home is eight blocks
from Anchorage's main street,
finally resorted to fire to chase
a moose out of his back yard
early Tuesday morning.
The animal was annoying
Cooks dogs, whose walls and as
sorted yells failed to move the
stubborn animal.
A BIB gun made the moose sore
and he chased Cook into side
door.
Cook slipped out another door
and lit big fire in an oil drum.
That did it. The moose left and

Employment Security Commission
Bill Designed TO Eliminate
Chairman Ralph Rivers

In the Senate, Rutherford was
called as a witness on the En-
ployment Security Commission
bills. He acknowledged in ques-
tioning that the bills are designed
to eliminate one man - Mayor
Ralph Rivers of Fairbanks, COM
mission chairman and the lone
remaining former member. Rivers
is the former Democratic attorney
general.
Asked if Rivers had been rea
quested to resign, Rutherford said
eyes, by Miscovitch, and he re-
fused"
Miscovich said later he had not
actually asked Rivers to resign;
that he had talked to Rivers out
side the legislative chambers and
Rivers said something to the eff
feet:
If you are going TO ask me to
resign, / will not do So"
Rutherford said the House La
Dor and Management Committee
felt justified in seeking a new
commission because the men who
had been serving on it allowed a
depletion of the unemployment
compensation fund through big
payments to laborers. He said the
laborers make big construction
wages in Alaska, then 60 outside
to draw benefits on what he called
winter vacation"
Rutherford said the fund is in
need of conservative direction.

This Garbaqe Situation

Too many people III Tabor City are failing to provide
containers with for the food garbage that they
have. This refuse being left uncovered and has become
serious of fly and mosquito breeding.
It's true that the should pick up garbage more
than week and thereby OF this evil How
with only truck, limited personnel and
ngly small financial resources, the officials
not seen their way clear to increase this service.
Meantime. people are leaving food particles piled up
uncovered and this practice should not be permitted.
Every house should have adequate garbage containers
they should remain covered at all times Failure COM
ply with this objective should result in violation
city ordinances.
It's definite hazard health allow this practice
continue. individuals should make immediate to
remedy the situation, and feel that the should
consider of stepping up garbage collection
Our thought this subject. the towns finances being
what they would be to charge per month
fee for garbage service that would guarantee least
twice-a-week pickups Many people wouldn't be inter-
ested, or perhaps need Sem-weekly service but
there many who do need the service and would be
glad to pay the small additional fee
But whether the garbage Is picked up week
twice, it should be covered adequately thereby do
with of breeding grounds obnoxious insects
There lot of us guilty of providing adequate
bins for other kinds of dry garbage This neglect
boxes and paper to be scattered widely that great
deal of time is lost by garbage collectors their regular
rounds If everyone cooperated fullest with proper
containers is possible that enough time could saved
by the garbage to allow additional pickup service
Many local stores make little effort keep their
garbage and trash in condensed form thereby easing
the load on the garbage facilities. They Simly throw and
lot of Junk into the back alley and hope the
bage men will do their work for them
The situation needs considerations It's your health
and happiness at stake and that of your children

heard of one this week that made
me sit up and take notice.
Several local fishermen hurried
off to Calabash after work one
evening TO test out a motor and
do little fishing at the same time.
They arrived at Calabash and

If recorded in "a diary it might

l. The motor conked out about

around the boat and can't find

the tide never comes in as long as
