Ferry System
 Does Not Qualify For Federal Aid

JUNEAU R - U. s. Maritime Administrator Thomas E. Stakem has said flatly that public corpo- ration could not qualify for fed eral aid for construction and operation of ferries, Gov. Egan said today.
 Egan, at news conference this morning, also released the text of letter written by Stakem to U. s. Sen. E. l.. Bartlett last Fri day in which Stakem said:
 ''It is our considered opinion that neither a state nor state owned corporation established for the purpose of owning and oper ating ferry system would qualify as a United States citizen under the Merchant Marine Act, 1886, as amended"
 In Washington, Egan said he planned to meet with members of the States Congressional dele gation, with Stakem and with Secretary of the Interior Udall.
 Egan said he will discuss sev- eral subjects with Udall, includ- ing the U.S.-Canada-Mexico mi gratory waterfowl treaty, pro- posed by the U. s. comptroller of the currency.
 Egan said the decision was to depreciate the value of buildings connected with fur seal operations in the Pribilof Islands, (which would cut the amount of money the state receives each year from fur seal operations.
 On another subject, Egan said he has asked Secretary of State Wade to consult with the Division of Game in regard to a proposed bison hunt in the Delta Junction area, in which 50 animals are to be killed.
 Residents of Delta Junction petitioned Egan last week to can- eel the proposed hunt and find other means of controlling the herd, which now numbers about $50 animals.

 Through W ashington

Associated Press Special SerUice


 WASHINGTON R-When Sen. Ernest Gruening launches into praise of NorWay's development, he conveys the clear message that he is talking not so much about Norway as he is about Alaska.
 Not the present, undeveloped 18th State, but the Alaska that could be is its vast resources were fully utilized.
 "A highly developed and pros porous Norway is a living guide to what we can do in Alaska and that we haven't done" said Gruen- ing in discussing his recent trip to Norway and Sweden.
 Norway lies in the same lati- tude as Alaska, it's climate is similar, it's rugged fjord-fringed coast is very similar to Alaska's and it's resources - fishing, tim Der, tourism, hydroelectric power are much like Alaska's," he said.
 ''The point is that Norway, many years ahead of Alaska, has point ed the way to our development" he added.
 Gruening feels that the pro posed Rampant Dam on the Yu- kon River is the key to Alaska's future through it's potentially huge supplies of loW-cost power.
 "There is no other site in Alas ka that would produce such low cost power in such great quan- titles. Industry will not come to Alaska for high-cost power.
 In Sweden, he said, the group paid particular attention to un- derWater transmission of power to Denmark and off-shore islands
 This is of particular importance to Alaska because Rampant power would have to be moved under water to reach areas in the south east and Kodiak Island, Gruening said.
 Asked about obstacles in the way of federal construction of a dam that would dwarf any yet built in the United States, Gruen- ing said:
 No major undertaking is ac- compished without overcoming obstacles. There were many in the way of statehood, but we ac- complished that. I feel the same way about Rampant.
 ''The Russians have huge dams. We can't assume a free economy cant do as well as a controlled economy"
 Bills Introduced
 Bills have been introduced in the Senate and House to relieve two Alaska communities from making payments to the govern ment on certain public works projects. The liability at SkagWay is for S94,550 and at Hoonal, S34,000.
 Gruenlng and Sen. Bartlett and Rep. Rivers, seek the relief for the two communities because:
 At Hoonal, the City and Alaska Public Works program officials thought the water system built there could be paid off through taxes in the area. It was later discovered the project was on re- stricted Indian land on which taxes could not be levied. "The error was at least partially on the side of federal officials" said Bartlett.
 At SkagWay, the city has refused to take over a street improve ment project on grounds that it is unsatisfactory, he said.

AVERAGE SESSION
HAS 1000 BILLS

RALEIGH - Although the 1861
session of the General Assembly
got off to a fast clip during the
first week of work, the pace will
have to be even faster if it gives
reality to its quiet hope of winding
up business by June Is.
The old adage that "a Job begun
is half done" seems true of almost
everything except law-making.
Experienced legislators point out
that introducing the bills is the
least of our troubles. It is the
long committee hearings, argu-
ments, and introduction of weak
ening and Strengthening amend
ments that are time-consuming.
The average session of the N. C,
Legislature sees the introduction OF
approximately 1000 bills. When
one considers that during the first
week of business fewer than 40 had
been introduced, it is easy to visua.
lie the vast amout of work which
lies ahead.
