Manager Says Spenard Plant Would Save $|OO,OOO a Year

Keeping control of product inventory will be simplified with a Spenard plant, he poin- ted out, saying that when a certain item runs low at pres ent in the distributing plant, it takes from 12 to "A hours to get a new supply in, whereas this time could be cut to only two or three hours if the pro- cessing plant were located there.
 Transporting labor needed in building the new plant from Anchorage to this area a n d other additional construction costs would add 10 per cent, or $100,000 to the cost of a $1,000,000 plant, Durrant said.
 In order to meet the regula- tions of the state board of health, the new plant must be built within the next two years, he stated. He pointed out that the present creamery is an inefficient operation, not able to compete with the in- creasing competition from au- tomated West Coast plants.
 Ray DePriest, Matanuska Valley dairyman and member of the Matanuska Maid board of directors, discussed the move from a dairyman's point of view, noting that the price

paid to the farmer for 100 pounds of milk have dropped from $l1.30 to $10.30 in the past year, while the cost of permanent farm help has risen from $100-$150 month, and hourly wages for temporary help has gone up from SIPS to $1.75 an hour. Farm mach inery costs have also risen 10 per cent in the past few years, and interest rates on s h o r t term loans and chattel mort gages have increased.
 Summing up, the two men pointed out that the creamery move will result in nor e money to the dairyman for his milk, and expressed the opin- ion that while the tax base of Palmer will be affected by taking out a plant of this size, the increase in net income to the farmers of the area will increase their standard of liv- ing and favorably affect the economic community.
 The reorganizational plan, which will do away with gro- cery, dry goods, garage, and real estate services now hand led by the coop, has been un- der discussion for several years, Durrant said. Some of

Approval of the Alaska Hardwoods Company's S23o.- 900 industrial loan application by the Area Redevelopment Administration was announced yesterday in a wire from the Alaskan Congressional delega- ton.
 Funds supplied through the loan will be used to reopen the hardwoods mill located at Was fila and to expand it's facilit- ies. Supporting the federal fin ancing of the project will be S51,000 loan from the Matan- uska Valley Bank, an invest ment of S35.000 by the Valley Development Company, and an equity of S38, 300 by the AL aska Hardwoods Company. The money will be used to cover the cost of land, buildings, ma chinery. and equipment.
 According to the Congress sional delegation wire, 26 di- rect jobs will be created as result of the loan, and a local logging operation which will supply white birch and plan ing at the new plant IS expect ed to create an additional l2 jobs. However, Jim Hurley, act ing manager of the hardwoods plant. said that probably no more than Is people will be employed during the first year of operation.
 Hurley estimated that the plant will not reopen until the middle of May, and at that time only if loan funds are l forthcoming immediately, since additional buildings are to be constructed and some addition al machinery will be purchas- ed.
 The chief product of the mill will be kiln-dried Alaska birch, Hurley said. However, the plant may handle other spec ies as demand indicates, par ticularly spruce and cotton wood.
 As the mill develops, some birch paneling may also be cut. ] The company anticipates that 50 per cent of the cut will be exported to the West Coast, the

By building a new creamery in Anchorage, operating costs will be cut 20 per cent, which will amount to a saving of S10O,000 a year to Matanuska Maid, Inc, Stewart A. Dur rant, general manager, said at a Matanuska Valley Chamber of Commerce luncheon meet ing yesterday.
 Costs of building here as compared to costs of building in Anchorage were weighed carefully before making t h e decision, according to the farm coop manager. Eff the differ ence had been slight, Palmer would have been favored" he said.
 Building the plant here would result in the duplica- tion of some expenses, Durrant stated, since certain services would have to be retained in Anchorage in addition to those here.
 The Spenard plant would save $50, ,000 in duplicate costs, and a $2O,OO0 to $25, ,00O saving would be effected in transpor- tation costs, the manager said. It costs BOG per hundred pounds to transport raw milk, and Soc per hundred for car- ton milk, he stated.

Seven persons from the Mat anuska Valley completed 50 miles of footsore hiking last Monday, representing about 10 persent of the total number of P persons who went all the way in the walk from Palmer to Anchorage.
 The hike, inspired by Presi- dent Kennedy's physical fit ness campaign and disc jockey Bob Fleming of Radio Station KENI. attracted 481 persons, who left Palmer about 6:30 am. with an enthusiasm that carried all but one past the Knik River Bridge and gained for Dick Kopsack of Big Lake Road the unofficial world championship.
 Kopsack, 33, who logged the 50 miles in nine hours, eight minutes and 20 seconds, is a member of the Aurora Mush- CTS. An Alaska Railroad em- ployee, he is married and has two small children. He has been one of the top winners in the Seward Marathon, and has recently been gaining atten- ton with his dog mushing ac- tivities.

these services may be trans ferred to private ownership, he stated.
 The warehouse operation will be expanded, according to the manager. Asked about the produce department, he said plans are to continue it, b u stated that farmers are an in- dependent group and W h e n growers become strong enough to go on their own, they pre- fer to operate without con- trolS, and have a tendency to cut their prices to discourage new producers.
 We have good facilities, but at present have about half as much volume as we need to break even," he said.
 The possibility of a process ing plant for vegetables was discussed, with the manager pointing out that much more is needed in the way of facts and figures on production capabilities and cons sum T markets before such plant can be considered. It was sug- gested that the state depart ment of agriculture is set up to gather statistics and that it might be well to press for as- sistance on the state level.
