EMPLOYMENT BOARD GIVES MONEY FOR PORT GRAHAM AIR STRIP

The Governors office today announced that the Alaska Rural Development Board has made $15,0OO available for an air strip clearing job at Port Graham. The small village on the lower Kenal Peninsula was hard hit by a dis astrous fishing season.
 James E. Hawkins, directors of the RDB, is in Anchorage this week to confer with Eugene Rog- uszka, acting director of the Department of Aviation. The $15,OOO will be transferred to the Department of Aviation
 Port Graham at the present time has no landing facilities for planes other than the beach at low tide. During the winter, ice on the beach makes it impossible for landings.

HIGHWAY PROGRAM PLANS
 ANNOUNCED FOR COMING YEAR

Xii Survey: Willow T Talkeetna Sur veY: and Naknek Bridge Survey. Two projects are still subject to discussion between the Territory and Bureau of Public Roads.
 The total Federal Aid money is distributed to the Judicial Di vision by means of a formula which takes into account the rela- tive area, total existing road mil- cage, population, vehicle regis trations, fuel tax receipts and an analysis of current needs of each Division. This formula, first sug- gested by the BPR, has been very carefully and thoroughly studied by the Territory and the Board has decided that it furnishes the most equitable basis for appor tioning funds that could be de- vised.
 The total for the First Division will be $4,O86,0O0. The Second Division will receive total of $837, ,000; and the Fourth Divi- sion, $4,353,OO0 and as reported, $7,972,OOO for the Third Division
 An additional $6,545,OOO worth of road construction will be in progress throughout Alaska dur ing 1Q58. This includes $21b mill lion of carryover work on con tracts previously let and $4,045,- 900 of construction previously programmed and funded but for which contracts have not yet been advertised or awarded. The fol lowing projects are in the latter category:
 Palmer City Paving; Sterling Highway, Homer to Ninilchik re- construction; Seward City Paw

 Tn making the proclamation Gov.

That these same civilian volunteers have established and have maintained in the Territory of Alaska an eff fective program of aviation edu- cation for OUT youth; and the highly patriotic members of the CAP have maintained and are maintaining an efficient rescue organization of skilled fliers and technicians, always ready at quick notice to hunt for fellow fliers and their passengers who | may be victims of mishaps, and to aid them whenever possible.
 The Civil Air Patrol will ob- serve the 18th anniversary of its founding on December l.

Milk Hike
OF l-Cent
Is Sought

A milk price boost which
would result in the public pay
ing one cent more for a quart
of milk will be requested by
the general manager of the
Maryland-Virginia Milk Pro-
ducers' Association.
William B. Hooper told this
newspaper he will recommend an
increase of 40 cents per hundred
weight of class one milk at a
hearing, September II before the
Virginia Milk Commission in
Richmond.
The Commissions decision will
directly affect Montgomery Coun-
ty dairymen in the M-VMPA,
Hooper said, although the Com
mission rules only on Virginia
milk.
Our physical and economic
conditions are almost identical" /"
Hooper said, "and it would mean
an across-the-board price hike in
Guiding Montgomery County"
Due to Drought
Hooper said the increase is nee
essary to offset heavy additional
costs imposed by giving winter
feed to animals unable to Craze
on drought-seared pastures.
Hooper emphasized that he will
ask for only a temporary raise in
prices.
I'VE are not interested in rails.
ing the price of milk throughout
the year, but only from October
i through the first of March to
cover the cost of buying winter
feed for the cattle. After them
he said, "the cows would be feed
ing on winter pasture"
Current Price
The current price paid by Wash
ington area consumers is $6.62
per hundred-weight, including
premiums. Hooper said dairymen
don't receive the whole amount
for all of their milk, but only for
about 40 percent, or an average
of "a cents per hundred-weight.
The remaining amount is that
paid for the portion of milk that
is graded as premium.
The price-rise would coincide
with one ordered by the Maryland
Cooperative Milk Producers, Inc,
of Baltimore. Their rise will
bring milk supplied to the Balti-
more area to $500 per hundred
weight

Job Ruling
Awaited by
Assessor

Henry Fl. Carter is awaiting a
decision by the State Tax Com
mission that either will uphold
his charges of favoritism in the
county tax assessors office or
will dismiss him from his Job
as an insubordinate and a morale
buster.
The tax commission heard Car
ter's defense in Baltimore last
week and that defense was less
hard-hitting than Carter hoped it
would be.
Charles M. Irelan, county at
torney, drew an admission from
Carter that he had made an un-
fair statement" concerning an
SSO,O00 tax cut on property owned
by E. Brooke Lee which Carter
originally had branded as politi-
cal sop.
Carter also said that some of
his charges, contained in an un-
signed letter to County Manager
Melvin L. Reese, were "hearsay'
that he had picked up around the
office.
Carter was suspended June 25
after he charged that the asses.
sor's office showed certain prop
erty owners preference in assess
ing their property, and that such
cuts were made without the
knowledge of the assessor.

Fair Total
Due to Set
New Record

With the last lost child re-
turned and the last prize
awarded, the officials of the
Montgomery County Fair at
Gaithersburg greeted the Sat
urday drizzle and Sunday
downpour as a final and good
omen of success.
They were still counting the
proceeds when this paper went to
press, so there was no final, ac-
curate account of how much the
Fair made.
But r. w. Farmer, of Gathers
burg, who was chairman of the
sprawling event could find only
superlatives to describe it.
Still Counting
Il don't know the exact fig
ures," he ventured, but it's the
biggest and best fair we've ever
had. Everything went very
smoothly and the food was a par.
ticular success. I'm sure the
church ladies' who served it are
very well pleased" he said.
Fair officials predicted a record
throng of 100000 would attend
and the general guess is that they
weren't far off, if at all. The first
day - kids day, drew an esti.
mated 25,000 persons, accompa-
MED by frogs, turtles, NUTS, who
got in free. There were $4,000 in
prizes.
