Alaska Should Share Benefits
Of Federal Highway Act.

All 48 States as we'll as Hawaii and Puerto Rico,
enjoy the benefits of the Federal Highway Act partic
patng in federal matching funds. Congress has also
appropriated funds under this act for Central America
without requiring matching funds
But for some unexplanable reason Alaska is re-
qured each year to get special appropriations for its
roads through the Alaska Road Commission The
amount becomes less the states get more, although
we pay So per gallon territorial tax and 2t for
federal tax.
Both Delegate Bartlett and Governor Frank Heint-
zeman working hard to get legislation passed dur
ing this session of Congress to give Aaskans equal
rights and the benefits Of the Federal Aid Highway
Act
We strongly urge civic groups to get behind them
with letters to congressman in the States and alert
them to the fact that we know what want and de-
serve Many Congressman have visited this area and
are known Each of them should be cognizant of
the unfarness of the present exclusion of Alaska from
this act.
