| March Of Dimes
Campaign Nets
Over $4,000

With the 1856 March of Dimes
campaign just about over, Ed
Smith, chairman, this week an
nounced that total of $1,412.61
was contributed in the Palmer
area. Most recent contributions
were received from the Palmer
Elks lodge and from Mr.. and
Mrs. Leonard Moffitt.
Smith stated that the Elks had
turned over a check for $498.75
which represents the total re-
ceipts gathered at the March of
Dimes dinner-danee held at Elks
hall February Is. Expenses of the
dinner and dance were paid by
the lodge SO that all money re-
ceived from ticket sales could be
turned over to the March Of
Dimes fund.
Smith expressed his, and As
sistant Chairman Mrs. Faith
Krause's appreciation for the con-
tributions and fund raising ac-
tivities sponsored by the various
local organizations and individu-
ais. What started out as a slow
project certainly ended UP very
well through the cooperation of
the people of the valley he said.

TAG DAY SATURDAY
TO Benefit
SCHOOL BAND

A city-wide tag day will be
conducted by members of the
Palmer School Band on Saturday,
March II, under the sponsorship
of the Palmer Band Boosters or
ganization.
All proceeds from the sale
which will run from 10 am. to
5 pm. will go toward the bands
travel expenses to the Music Fes-
tival which will be held in Fair
banks April 20. and q. The band
and chorus groups will go to
Fairbanks on April 10 to partici
pate in the Festival with other
schools from the Railbelt area.
The train fare will cost $3.50
per student and the tag day, and
other planned events, will help
offset this expense. Travel ex-
penses for such activities do not
come out of general school funds
and will be paid by each student
travelling, less whatever amounts
are raised through community ae-
tivities prior to mid-April. Candy
and cookies sales have been held
at the school the past two or
three weeks, netting the band a
profit. A benefit band concert is
being planned for April 13 and a
school dance will be held March
%.
Students in the Anchorage
High School band program re-
Gently presented a Band-O-Rarna,
the proceeds from which will go
toward their travel expenses.
Other schools planning to partie-
ipate at the Festival are making
plans to offset their travel ex-
penses through varied programs.
The public is invited to help
boost the band and chorus groups
by giving their support to the
programs being planned by the
units.
Band members are requested to
turn out in uniform Saturday
morning, or at their assigned
hours. Headquarters for picking
up tags and turning IN receipts
will be at the Legion building
where an adult member Of the
Band Boosters will be on hand.

SEEKS CONTRACT
WITH CITY FOR
GARBAGE HAULING

City Attorney John Shaw was
ahis week requested to work
with the City Health Officer in
drawing up a proposed contract
for garbage hauling and use OF
The city dump. The instructions
are the result of a lengthy dis
.cesgion between the City Coun-
ell and Virgil Meehan.
Meehan has proposed to the
city that if contract to haul
rubbish and the use of the dump
IS granted he plans to purchase
existing companies and will OPP
crate the collection business IN
accord with city and territorial
health codes. He presented pro-
posed list of fixed prices he will
follow and a scale of charges to
ne made for use of the dump by
those hauling their own rubbish.
City officials have for some
Time tried to find solution to
she expensive and time-consu1n-
ing job of keeping the city dump
in fair repair and under com
pliance with the health codes. Ii
The contract is awarded to Nee
nan. the responsibility of main
tanning the dump will be his. In
exchange for the care OF the
.sas1rnp, Meehan would be accord
ed all salvage rights and be per
united to erect gate at the
dump entrance and make reason
aassle charges for dumping. He
enId city officials he plans to
periodically cover the dump with
gravel, and will spray whenever
necessary to combat insects and
rodents.
Meehan's proposed rates were
as follows: Weekly collections,
$3.50 per month. apartments,
over two. $500 per unit, per
enonth. business, weekly collec-
elons from $3.50 per month;
business, daily, $10-$30 per
s1onth. The rates for business col
fectipns would be graded ac-
.coriing to amount hauled Other
rates were presented, covering
more frequent pick-ups.

ming to attend the Teachers Con-

The frontiersman. [volume] (Palmer, Alaska) 1952-2005, 1956-03-15

He stated the dump would be
open for public use between the
hours of 200 to 600 pm. week
days, Monday through Saturday.
The hours would vary, he said,
if the demand was sufficient.
The rates for dump usage would
be posted at the dump; the City
of Palmer would retain the right
to dump free of charge; and any
rate changes upward would have
to be approved by the City Coun-
Gil before going into effect Rate
changes downward would be pub
licized before going into effect.
Meehan would also be respon-
sible for carrying adequate La
bilty insurance.
The proposed contract will be
read at the March q meeting of

constant argument, dissension, per

finally common public brawling.
The latest sorroWful example was
the arrest last week of this county's
State Senator, charged with as
sault upon the person of the Coun-

sort not only lower the standing of
the county in the eyes of the rest

tragic lack of cooperation among
our public officials-which is so

the failure of our various commits

OF those who have the best inter

Our government both local and

pend upon it to a large degree for
most of our vital services. including
education, personal and communi-
ty security, services of many other
kinds and even our national health

level, it is necessary that ii be adj
ministered by clear-headed, even
tempered individuals Of high char

personal violence on public
thoroughfare are obviously not
qualified for the important task of
making broad policy decisions for
us at the seat of government.
a democracy moves slowly but
once each four years it has the
opportunity to purge itself of mis-
fits. Past mistakes can be corrected
in the secrecy of the polls. In the
present case. it is unfortunate that
two years must elapse until that
can be done. In the meantime, we
can only regret the apparent i'm
