Unscrambling punches of letters

has become a lively indoor sport.
It's 1855 version of the jig-saw

And at least one metropolitan
daily jumbles the names of cities
and offers prizes to readers who
can de-jumble them.
Home and car insurance are
also puzzles to most people, other
than insurance specialists. But
when you find the right home and
car insurance you have a great
prize: financial protection and
peace of mind. So it is well worth
your while to ,ksee your indie
pendent agent before you buy.
Being an independent agent,
can guide you, impartially,
through the maze of available in
surance policies. | do my best to
make sure that you save money
that you are fully protected

need to file are settled to your
satisfaction. Why not let me
study your insurance program,
without cost or obligation.

Landlords Seek
 Equal Allowance

A case for the private rental landlord in Kodiak was presented before the Legislative Council in it secession Monday, by Carl Huer, president of the Residential Prop erty Owners Association
 Huer outlined the difficulties of owners in Kodiak in meeting what he termed unfair competition" from the government-owned Aleu- tan Homes. He pointed out a $3.70 per day allowance is given service personnel who live in a project home. SIPS is allowed those who live in privately owned homes. He said his organization sought an equal allowance.
 Cmdr. L. o. Lynch, legal officer on the Naval Station, was called in to present the other side of the story. He stated the schedule of allowances was set up in Wash ington, D. C. by an Armed Ser vices Board, from. information compiled here in yearly survey. The allowances, he said, are based on costs to the serviceman, out lined in the annual questionnaire. The questionnaire reflects higher utilities and other costs for per- Sonnel living in the project homes.
 When council member sug- geSted that stirring up the issue might impose unfavorable reac- tions among the Armed Services, Huer replied: I'm going bank rupt anyway, as it is, unless some thing is done about it."

Plan Paving Job
 For Next Summer

The Bureau of Public Roads is seeking the lease of the Navy paw ing plant, in a plan to pave the new Base-ToWn road next year. This was learned in a report of a meeting of the Base-Town com mittee, at the Chamber of Com merce meeting Thursday.
 Navy officials suggested the proposed paving in Kodiak be worked out so the two projects could be completed about the same time, without tying up the equip ment for too long a period of time.
 Other matters to come before the committee were that of com plaint that liquor was being sold

Along 4 The Waterfront

The heavy winds which prevail ed for number of days over the weekend, took their toll as usnal.
 An inkling of the force of the gusts was seen when about 6 am Saturday morning, huge section of the ro0f of Halferty'S Cannery was carried away in one piece, fortunately out into the channel Tiny Cichoski's boat was damaged when a timber went through the decking.
 The winds which blew about 6G m.p.h. most of the time, were bad enough, but quite frequent gasts of more than 100 m.p.h. did tfie damage. A skiff tied up to float in the small boat harbor was picked up, 0utboard and all, and hurled across to the other side of the float.
 City Manager Poland described the action of the wind in the har- Dor as resembling williwa. Criti~ cism of the small boat harbor is unjustifed, he said, as the harbor was not designed with the idea of such winds in mind. The poles, he said, that suffered the damage, were placed properly and ae- cording to specifications.

Big Oil Revenue Is Predicted Here;
 Forecast S26 Million for Alaska in 1868

Oil and gas leases revenues reaching as high as 261z million dollars in one year have been fore east for Alaska.
 MO. Allen, lands and mineral officer for the Bureau of Land Management at Juneau, told the Alaska legislative council Satur- day that lease rentals in 1859 were expected to be about 91s million dollars.
 The revenues, not including royalties from any producing wells, should increase to 1912 million dollars in 1860 and be up to 26k million in 1863, Allen said.
 The new state, as the territory has in the past, will receive 90 per cent of the rentals paid ol oiR ard gas leases on federal lands.
 Since July of last year applica- tlens have been filed for more than 331a million acres of Alaska, and about I6 million acres of leases have been processed.
 Total Alaska receipts so far from the leases, spurred by the RbghfieId Oil Go. strike on the Kemai Peninsula IS months ago, have tota1ed about AZ million collars.
 Other witnesses appearing be- fare the council, indicated that Alaska would need all the oil revenue it can get.
 Budget Director Richard Freer sasd Alaska agencies already have xasbnnitted appropriation requests tesaling $33, ,1OO,135 for the first fsssf year of operation as state. The requests almost equal the total appropriation for the 1957-59 bieRnium.
 Freer put anticipated revenue fer the 1959060 fiscal year, not in- eiuding gas and oil receipts, at $22650,314, and said it appeared there would be AZ million dollar surplus in the general fund next June 30.
 The end of the next fiscal year 1A June will mark the close of Alaska's biennium budget opera

tions. The first state Legislature, scheduled to meet in January, will make appropriations on an annual basis.
 Tax Commissioner Rober Stevenson told the council new revenue will be needed to replace expected loss of about $337, ,000 that comes in annually from fish trap license fees. He forecast possi- ble increases in gear licenses and resident and nonresident fishing licenses.
 Traps, long controversial in Alaska, seem destined for elimina- tion when the territory moves into statehood next year
 Both major political parties have promised all necessary action to ban the traps, if possible even before Alaska fully assumes con- trol of it's fisheries from the US. Fish and Wildlife Service.
 Stevenson told members of the Legislatures interim study com mittee the tax department was seeking other revenue to replace that lost when the traps go out.
 The best bet, he said, would appear to be in an increase in gear license. Added revenue possi- bilities also appeared in boost in resident and nonresident licenses, he said.
 Two officials of company hir- ed by the territory for studies on government reorganization drew the fire of council members.
 The lawmakers asked Robert Slower and Mike Morris, repre- sentatives of the Public Admins tration Service, for a report on the firms progress.
 Slower said PAS was working on personnel classification and pay plans, transitional problems in- volved in assuming federal func- tions, and retirement proposals for state workers.
 But he said the findings would not be released until completed possibly in mid-December.

NucIear Power By CandIelight

City electrical failed late Sum- day during a meeting of the Alaska Legislative Council.
 The lawmakers resorted to candle power to provide light for the next witness, Dr. Wildon J. Frank of the University of Cali fornia Radiation Laboratory.
 His topic; Nuclear Power in Alaska.
 Excavate HarbOrs
 Dr. Frank told the interim com mittee of the legislature that nuclear power could be used for excavating and constructing har- bors in Alaska.
 The Atomic Energy Commission, he said, was particularly interest ed in Alaska because development was needed and the new state offered sparsely settled areas where demonstrations could be conducted.
 AEC survey teams already have made field inspections in Alaska. The agency said it was planning nuclear excavation of a harbor north of the Boring Strait, with the big blast probably being scheduled for 1860.
