Anchorage, Alaska March 27, 1862

As former resident of the area proposed as the 'Matan- uska-Susitna" Borough and still a landowner there, hon. estly feel that the people of the Valley are making a mistake in attempting to set up an in- dependent borough. They are luckier than any other part of the state in their proximity to the largest concentrated source of tax revenue in Alaska-An- chorage. By drawing an artifi- cial line through Knik Arm they are cutting themselves off forever from this bonanza. The Matanuska Valley could get a tremendous jump on the Kenai Peninsula by tying itself to An chorage rather than attempting to keep out of the Anchorage borough.
 I am not affiliated with any borough movement in Anchor age and don't even know any one who is. but I have seen in the States poverty" coun- ties adjacent to heavily -popu- lated prosperous counties, and the former just did not have the money for even basic i'm provements. Let's face it-An- chorage has 83,000 people and the entire Matanuska Susitna district has slightly over 5000. The Matanuska Valley is the playground for the residents of 1 Anchorage, who have hundreds of weekend cabins at Big Lake, Lake Wasilla, Lake Lu- cille, Nancy Lake and many others. These Anchorageites 1 are anxious for improved high ways into and throughout the Valley, and they can provide the tax money that can make these and other improvements a reality.
 It is understandable that there is a feeling of why pay taxes to Anchorage" but be- lieve me it would more than balance out in development of the valley area. Undoubtedly there are individuals involved who are looking for plush jobs in the 'Matanuska-Susitna" borough government, but for the bulk of the residents l feel it would provide sounder and greater development to go in with Anchorage and tap their coffers for these improvements. Instead of quibbling over whe- ther Mckenzie Point should be ! in one or the other boroughS, I would think seriously about a 'tKnik Arm Borough includ- ing both Anchorage and the Palmer area. It could make both Anchorage and Palmer the most prosperous and inn proved area in the state if de- veloped as an integrated unit.
 I would think very carefully before cutting the Valley off permanently and ask 5000 people to pay for the develop ment of 23,000 square miles. Why not 88,000 people develop ing 25,000 square miles 1t makes more sense. 1 repeat, l have no utilization with any borough movement, including the Cook Inlet Empire" move ment. Let the Kenai Peninsula form it's own borough if it likes, but let Anchorage help improve the Matanuska -Susit- na area. Don't fight em-join 'emi They're the best source of revenue the Valley could pos sibly have.

INTERPRETIVE REPORT
Odds Seen Fovoring Senate
In Long Feud Over Funds
By ]. A. OLEARY
Star Staff Writer

For five months, the United
States Senate and House of
Representatives have been en-
broiled in a rancorous dispute
over their prerogatives, tradi-
tions and habits.
This would seem a long time
to spend in polite, academic
debate, but this fight is more
than academic and not so gen.
teel. It involves billions of
dollars-all the money, in fact,
to run the Government this
year.
Every money bill for the
current year is tied up because
of the dispute between the
House and Senate Appropria-
tions Committees over how the
bills should be handled.
When the controversy began
last February, some Capitol
observers viewed it as merely
a squabble between two veteran
legislators anxious to protect
their jurisdictional rights and
functions -83 year old Clar-
ence Cannon and 84-year-old
Carl Hayden, the respective
chairmen of the House and
Senate committees.
But as the months have
dragged by without a solution,
the rank and file of the two

could not serve them. They left
the bar.
A Negro man, also a member
of the Peace Corps, was refused
service at the bar and went
into the dining room and in
formed other members of the
Corps seated in the restaurant
that he had been denied service.
The rs Peace Corps members
got up and walked out of the
restaurant.
The Peace Corps official said
at least one Negro had been
served in the restaurant part
of the establishment prior to
the mass walk-out.
Myles Turnbaugh, owner of
the restaurant, said the Peace
Corps members who asked to
be served at the bar were in
formed of the county law and
were told they would be served
if they would take seats at the
tables in the restaurant.
He said the bar is small and
at the time the Negroes re-
quested service about so people
were in the bar. He said this
was too many to serve and some
were asked to move into the
restaurant section.
