CURE SOUGHT FOR
HIGH BOND RATES
FOR ALASKA CITIES

WASHINGTON, R-Two Alas
ka city officials seek administra-
ton backing for a program of
government insurance on the ter
ritory's municipal bonds.
Mayor Ken Hinchey and City
Manager George Shannon, both
Anchorage, and Delegate Bartlett
said the subject was one Of sew
eral to be taken up at meeting
with Anthony T. Lausi, director
of the Office of Territories.
Shannon said Alaskan cities
have been paying as high as 512
percent interest on their bond
issues. He said the average rate
is AZ percent as contrasted with
a range of from 1.3 to 3.5 percent
for similar issues in the United
States.
He said investment houses ex-
plain the high rate by saying
there is little market for Alaskan
bonds because of uncertainties re-
sulting from federal domination
of the bulk of the territory's re
sources and economy.
The meeting is one of several

holding with government officials
since their arrival here last week

ance of serious federal considera-

Astronomy Notes
BY OLAF HALVERSON

A Polish astronomer by the
name of Copernicus in 1543 an
nounced a new theory His as
founding new theory stated that
the sun was the center of our
solar system.
Copernicus further stated that
the planets between the earth and
the sun would show phases like
the moon if they could be seen
clearly. Many years later, when
Calico, in 1910, turned his tele-
scope on Venus and beheld the
beautiful little crescent, it con
firmed the theory of Copernicus.
The followers of the ancient
system of Ptolemy, who claimed
that the earth was the central
body around which the sun and
planets revolved, were silenced.
For the first time they saw that
the orbit of the earth must en-
close the orbit of Venus, and that
they both must revolve around
the sun.
The planet which proved this
new theory of the solar system
was Venus, which is now so beau
tiful and bright in the southern
sky soon after sunset.
