No Swimming
 c In De Winter Says Council

City Manager Matt Slankard this week filed application with the Alaska Public Works for $200,000 in matching funds to build "a swim ming pool and ior a skating rink in Fairbanks.
 The action was taken following long and tedius debate on swim ming pool in general, which left almost all of the spectators and at least one councilman thoroughly confused
 ..L affaire swimming pool all started when the Park and Reerea- ton commission report was read. requesting the council to place on the next election ballot a general obligation bond issue of $20oo00 to construct pool. The report also asked the council to void the com missions former recommendation that $100000 be spent for q pool and s100.000 for skating rink. A motion to this effect was made and defeated by 3 to vote.
 Councilman Dick Greue1. suport- ed by councilman Ben Potter, ia vored the S2O000o pool The city may be in better financial condi- ton when the contract is signed two years from now He and Pot ter both urged the council to plan ahead
 Other things have priority to a swimming pool" countered council man Dr. Paul Haggland, He stated that he felt they were spending too much, adding funds are mighty tight" He pointed out that the City manager has asked for $400,000 bond issue already, on which the council has taken no action.
 The motion lost. and the City At torney stands ordered to draw up an ordinance subject to Council ap- proval. putting the two $10o,00 is use before the voters. A resolution, to come before the body at their next meeting, must accompany

Many Facilities Managed By
 Federal Funds

The federal government has many more agencies in the Territory and more directly regulates activity here than in the States.
 The government owns and oper- ates the Alaska railroad under the authority of the Interior depart ment. The Alaska Communications system is under the jurisdiction of the U. s. Signal Corps
 Where as in the States, the Fish and Wildlife service. who regulate fishing licenses. and the Road Com- mission duties are delegated by. the the individual states. the federal government is the sole operator of such services in Alaska
 The offices of the weather bureau. the Internal Revenue service, the FBI. the customs department, the postal department and such are. as in the States, also operated by the federal government.
 Most of the land of the Territory. the bulk of which is unsurveyed, is owned by the federal government. About the only land that is sur veyed is adjacent to settled areas There are three main groups of land in the Territory: the first is in pub lie domain, or owned outright by the government The second type has had title or patent on it is- sued to an individual
 The third is that which has been withdrawn from public domain by civil or military agencies for pulp lie use.
 Homestead laws in the Territory are very generous tsee story else wherel and many servicemen sta- toned here find it to their advan- tage and liking to settle and clear land here. For information about homesteading and the regulations concerning it, contact the Bureau of Land Management in the federal building.
 All the usual government facili- ties are found in Fairbanks. such as the office of veterans affairs,

der the humanitarian banner line:
The Greatest Happiness for the
Greatest Number.
Various departments and legisla-
tors have endeavored to implement
our governments broad social phil
osophy by sponsoring, causing the
enactment or implementing such
legislature as Land Tenure, Public
Power Program, Magma Carta of
Labor, National Resettlement and
Rehabilitation, Rural Reconstruc-
ton, Peoples Homesite, Home FL
nancing, which could easily become
parts and parcel of an overall
population policy.
In order to tackle adequately
such problems and many others, we
need an intelligent population policy
which shall be made much clearer
if I give a bird's-eye view of the
population policies of other coun-
tries.
Sparta and the Inca Empire of
Peru had their population policies
which were carefully executed. The
population policies envisioned in
Plato's Republic were based on the
daily life of contemporary Sparta,
which was a mortal rival and enemy
Of Athens. In ancient Peru at a
certain day Of the year men and
women who were yet single at the
age of q were made to form double
lines and in a mass marriage cere-
monies the men were coupled with
the women opposite them. 1t is
certain that we bachelors in this
country would revolt against the
adoption of such a law unless there
is a positive guarantee that the
girl opposite is the right one! The
Aztec and the Maya Empires of
Mexico had similar laws which an
ticipated and eclipsed the twentieth
century performance on mass mar
riages of Hitler and Mussolini.
Pre-war Japan blueprinted a pop
ulation policy designed to attain a
total population of 100 million, while
Germany leveled her sight at 200
