IlVerS Acts On Personal Problems

Rep. Ralph Rivers, in his letter to AlaSkans, states he is kept quite busy with attendance at the sessions of Congress, meetings of committees and subcommittee, of which he is a member, and teSti- flying before several committees considering bills he has an inter est in. :"
 Add to these things" he states, requests from many Alaskans who have personal or special prob lens, with which I, as their con- gresSman, am able to help them, and you have pretty busy sched- ule. It is pleasure to be able to help serve my fellow Alaskans i1 this way" His letter continues:
 Since my letter last month, I have introduced 16 more bills. Three of these bills are to give the Court of Claims jurisdiction to determine certain wage claims which arose in Alaska, and two are bills for the personal relief of individuals in Alaska whose cases involve matters which re- quire action by congress. In addi- tion to these, there is my bill to extend the cost of living allowance given federal employees in Alaska to clerks employed by the National

KODIAK, ALASKA, MARCH s1, 1859

to accumulate A5 days annual leave before earned leave would lapse, instead of the normal 30, but this ended January 3 with Statehood. Feeling that the great CT distances Alaskans have to travel, and difficulties involved in such travel make the greater accumulation only fair, I intro duced this measure to return to them the 45 day accumulation. They do, not earn any more leave than before, but may accumulate more without losing it.
 District of Columbia Home Rule: l was requested to give my SUD- port to this measure which will grant the nearly one million citi- zerlS of the District of Columbia, self governments they have esnever had. This bill was sponsored by several congressman. Passage of this bill will give to the people of the district a government very similar; to that we had in Alaska while we were a Territory, with an appointed Governor and Sec retary, an \ elected Assembly or Legislature and non-voting dele gate to the House of Represents tivee. - A

Guard, and one to extend the cost of living allowance to Federal Ju- dicial employees in Alaska, who have heretofore been excluded. Bills of more general effect and interest to AlaskanS are:
 Oil Reserve Bill: The purpose of this measure is to return Naval Petroleum Reserve Numbered to the jurisdiction of the Secre- tary of the Interior so there can be development by private indus try.
 Juneau Courthouse: For con- struction of new post office and courthouse at Juneau, badly need ed for a long time.
 Cost of Living Allowance In- crease: This allowance is now peg gxl at: g per cent and my bill would provide for determination by the actual difference, which is higher than the present allowance
 Canadian Vessel Bill: To ex- tend fdr'sone year, authorization for Canadian vessels to carry pas se1gerS and cargo between Alas kan cities and between Alaska and tn rest of the United States. This is quite important to Alaska. as; we have no American passen- ger service by water. I hope we will again have American service before long.
 Leave Accumulation Bill: Prior to our admission to the Union, Federal employees had been able

Surplus JeepS

I receive many letters from
Southeastern Ohioans who have
heard that the government sells
surplus jeeps. These letters
usually ask where the vehicles
are being sold and how to enter
bid for them. The fact is that
jeeps are very seldom offered for
sale to the general public. They
are normally retained by the
military departments until they
are no longer economically re-
parable. They are then offered
to other government agencies.
If they remain unsold, they are
donated to certain educational,
public health, and Civil Defense
activities. Only after this pro-
cess is completed are any remain
ing vehicles offered to the public
for sale.
Like any other piece of surplus
property, if jeeps are located the
probability of finding one which
can be- reconditioned for a rea-
sonable price is not good, despite
enticing and sometimes mislead-
ing, advertisements in national
magazines.

Americans Responding

It is rather encouraging to note that
the people are extending themselves IN the
manner that is of utmost concern to the wei
fare of our community and nation. Regard
less of it's context, when the time becomes
SO apparent that a correction to pending
problem which is endangering the country's
security is needed, then the American people
will resolve that situation with determlna-
ton of sincerity and a definite purpose OF
mind
Members of Congress are embattled
with such problem -. federal labor legls-
laton House and Senate conferees on the
controversial labor union reform bill are
being swamped with letters and kilograms
demanding a strong measure.
Members report phenomenal volume
of mail since they started work attempting
to iron out differences between the stricter
bill passed by the House and the milder
measure approved by the Senate.
The measure is officially known as
amended Senate Bill 1855, but more COM
monlv referred to as the Kennedy-Landrum-
Griffin bill
The bill contains the effective pro-
visions to eliminate secondary boycotts and
organizational picketing by non-employees
for purposes of cOercing into labor contracts
not wanted by their employees.
1t also contains bill of rights for the
union member, as well as relieving the "no
mans land" condition where neither state
law nor federal law provided jurisdiction on
certain labor cases.
1t is rather unusual that such legislation
is heino considered on the very eve when
Noble County suffered its second serious set
back in loss of industrial plants within a
period of two years.
First to cease operation was Cozier
Container Corp. The companv was COM
PEELED to close its Caldwell branch plant last
year when it was no LONGER feasible to oper-
ate it ecOnomicallv Increased demands by
the union created problems that management
was unable TO cone with financially, result
ing in the closing of the plant and terminal
ing emplovnent for some As enploveeS To-
dav the building is being used as a ware
house. One person is empOved
The second blow came two weeks ago
when the owners of the Ava Brick Company
announced the closing of its Ava plant. To-
dav. because of this decision, 81 persons are
out of work.
II is difficult tn make an honest annraiSal
of the situation for there are two sides to
every question. But one thing is true .
let's quote the proverhial phrase, "You can
lead horse TO water, but making him drink
is another thing"
When differences exist in negotiating
contracts. failure of management and union
to come TO some anioable agreement or un-
laboring man is always the one who is
