Will Construct Road On Afognak

The much needed road from Back Bay to the town of Afognak will be constructed this summer, according to Dick Berg, of the committee on Public Roads and Road Improvements for the Cham Der of Commerce.
 The road, a distance of two miles, will be the first step of an overall program for a road from Back, Bay to the vicinity of-Litnik, an overall distance of approxi- mately ten miles. .s
 The work involved will be 8 case of rehabilitating and gravel ing an old existing "cat" trail which has been impossible for the greater portion of the year. The people of the community, spear headed by Del Valley have been working for a usuable road for nearly 12 years. Valley, according to reports, will release much of his heavy equipment during con struction, as an economy move for the Forestry Service, who is con structing the road.
 After all these years of haul ing cargo from Back Bay to Afog- nak by sled, tractor, jeep. horse and even on their backs" Chuck Edris, chairman of the c. of c. committee, stated, " these people are going to appreciate mode of travel 12 months of the year. It will prove a blessing both socially and economy-wise."

 Phil Starbird was then intro duced. He prefaced his remarks by stating that he has always be- lieved in free enterprise. He further stated that a good percent age of the money earned by civil service employees comes right back in town, But he pointed out that a comparison of wages paid the blue collar worker in gov ernment service reveals that there is difference of more than a dol lar an hour in most of the trades. The top wages paid an ungraded government employee is $3.84 an hour. For the same work in town tfFe Union scale is $4.91." He made many other comparisons of a similar nature. V Starbird then analysed his own weekly check, the take-home pay, and how it is spent.

Chamber Of Commerce Opposed To
 HUM No. 21-Seeks Other Solution

The Chamber of Commerce voted to draft resolution to Alaska's senators and congress man in Washington, D.C., as not fayoring HUM No. q, as adopted by the Senate and House of Rep reSentativeS in Juneau.
 A delegation of some ten civil service employees, headed by Al Stewart, president of the Supervi- sors Association, were in atten- dance at the luncheon Thursday when the action was taken. He and other members of the delega- ton spoke on their position in the matter.
 Prior to introducing the speak CTS from the Naval Station, O. K. Nncaid president of the c. of c. stated that neither the Chamber nor any other group or individuals in the City had been consulted prf CT to the introduction of the mem erial. He further stated that be knew there had been abuses in exercising the privileges of the PIX. But he made it clear that in his opinion, he did not see any Benefits 10 be derived from the memorial. Tt antagonizeS, he said, ~and at the same time doea more harm than good"
 Dick Berg followed and briefly confirmed Kincaid's sentiments
 Stewart, in his remarks, empha- sized mainly that, despite the privileges of the PIX and commi- Sary, and the 25% KOLA salaries paid did little more than meet the absolute necessities ".t is difficult" he said, ito attract qualified workers to come to K0- diak when all you can offer them Is what they can get in the other 48 stateS-and have the benefits, and opportunities, such as greater medical care, selection in pur- chasing necessities, entertainment, etc" He went on to say his de partment, that of electronics, has tried for two years to obtain a wen-qualified electronics engi- neer, but without results.
 Stewart deplored the passage of the memorial He said it only created an upset feeling" and in 10 way improved Base-Town rela- tinns. He said a more realistic approach to the problem is that sf Rep.

Montana Wool
Growers Stand

WE AHHhEO1AlE YOOh inquiry
relative to the position of the Montana
Wool Growers Association concerning
the coming referendum to continue the
advertising and promotion of wool and
lamb.
We are extremely disappointed that
the Montana Farm Bureau intends to
carry out the policy of opposing the
referendum.
We understand that the Montana
Farm Bureau Federation is in the
process of distributing a pamphlet con-
corning the referendum This pamphlet
gives an incomplete and misleading ac-
count of the ''self-help' program for
wool and lamb advertising and pro-
motion which is financed and directed
by members of the sheep industry.
We met with the directors of the Mon
tana Farm Bureau two different times
and tried to discourage them from fol-
lowing the dictates of the AFBF but
were unable to convince them that this
is sheepmen's program and whether
or not it should be continued should
be decided by sheepmen
We did agree with them that every
effort should be made to get out as
large vote as possible and to furnish
as much factual material to the sheep
men as it is possible to do.
Our main area of disagreement was
'sWhat Are the Facts?" 1t is our con-
tention that the material being dis
tributed by the Farm Bureau is mis-
leading, semi-factual and clouds the
main issue The main issue in our
minds is SHOULD we promote and adj
vertise wool and lanb?"
The program has been called a
"check off," which may or may not
be right However, it appears this is
the only method of getting some money
together to advertise and promote our
products. The main problem of any
program is getting a little money to-
gether. Even a modest program such
as distributing a few recipes or menus
by volunteer workers requires some
money for printing.
AS long as this money is furnished
by people who just happen to think OF
It and send it in, it must be acknowI-
edged by receipt-you send it to them
the clerical work and postage eats
up the money-you end up where you
started-no money to pay the printers
and get the real job done.
This method has been tried for years
oy both the Stockgrowers and the Wool
Growers and they both tried hard. It
lust can't be done and money can't be
raised from large numbers of COM
small producers such as are
Montana farmer-stockman., 1959-09-01

without some sort of automatic cOllec
ton device as has been used by the
Montana Beef Council, National Live
stock and Meat Board and the Ameri
can Sheep Producers Council. Due tC
legal technicalities, the only one oi
these on legally sound basis at this
time is the ASPC, which is authorized
under Section 7O8 of the National Wool
Act.
One Of the charges of the Farm
Bureau is that it is not the true demo
cratic spirit when a minority can be
forced to pay against their will even
though the majority feels it is for the
best interests of all. AS Norm Winder,
immediate past president of the ASPC
pointed out. his city recently voted a
bond issue to improve the airport. This
required only majority vote for pass
age but by reason of its passage, every
one in the city was liable for his share
of the airport development cost.
In the case Of the September Wool
Referendum, a two-thirds vote is neces-
sary for it to pass and every producer
shares in the cost in direct proportion
to the number of sheep he owns and
also shares in the same proportion in
all of the benefits of the program. What
could be more democratic and just than
that?
Tn;c ;c . cboorv,oo ov,sc ~1,.orx,.ox~~ 49,.
ceived, developed and operated by
them. Every director of the ASPC is a
sheepman, representing all facets of
the sheep industry throughout the Unit
ed States. All of the decisions made
relative to the advertising and promo
ton of wool and lamb are made by
these directors.
There have been charges made that
the money is being used for the pro-
motion of foreign products in this
country. Nothing could be more ridicu-
lous as every effort has been made
to stress the superiority of American
grown wool and lamb. +
The wool market today is in strong
er position than it has been for three
or four years. AS this is written, the
wool market is nearly 80 per cent above
the levels of late 1853 Our lamb mar
ket shows greater stability in recent
years than in any similar period in
the past. Our domestic sheep population
is on steady increase, reflecting the
confidence in the industry which has
been restored, not only to sheep own
ers, but to manufacturers, packers and
retailers. There is today a healthier
tone in the business than we have
seen in years.
The cost of the promotion program
% date has repaid MANIFOLD its cost to
he sheep producer of Montana and the
United States. This belief is sustained
