effect under a state of siege im

father.

A Notice To All Voters In Alaska
who received a mimeographed letter dated Sept.
19, 1956 from the of fee of the Grand Camp of the
Alaska Native Brotherhood in Juneau, signed by
William Paul, Sr. Mr. Paul who is Grand Presi
j dent of the ANB IS HAVING WORDS PUT INTO
HIS MOUTH AND INTO HIS LETTERS THAT
ARE NOT THOSE OF THE PEOPLE HE
PRETENDS to represept!
He is not speaking for the native people of
\ Alaska when he says the things he does in his
letter of Sept. 19 to the native voters of Alaska!
He is speaking for some selfish interests and does
not have the Alaska native people’s best interests
i at heart. He certainly is not thinking of us or of
I you WHEN HE ORDERS YOU to vote as he does,
on page two of this letter.
What Mr. Paul has in mind WE DO NOT
KNOW, BUT WE DO KNOW he is not speaking
for US or for YOU in that letter.
On October 9 we urge you all to go and vote
and vote AS YOU FEEL YOU SHOULD and
NOT AS MR. PAUL HAS TRIED TO DICTATE
TO YOU.

Oil Refinery Near
Haines Will Cost
Many Millions
JUNEAU — A multi - million -
dollar oil refinery is to be in
stalled at Port Chilkoot, near
Haines, it was learned from re
liable sources here recently.
The big industrial venture will
mark the first major oil refinery
in the territory, and is calculated
to launch the biggest boom in the
history of Haines, a small Lynn
Canal city at>out 100 miles north
of here.
Reportedly the refinery is to
be operated by the Shamrock Pe
troleum Company, Ltd., of Ed
monton, Canada. The Canadian
firm is understood to be a sub
sidiary or an associate firm of a
major U.S. oil concern.
The Shamrock Company is un
derstood to have negotiated the
purchase of about 35 acres of land
on which to establish the refinery
at Port Chilkoot. The purchase,
it was learned, includes a water
front site at which a dock could
conveniently be constructed.
Capacity estimates of the re
finery have been placed at about
7,000 barrels per day. The refin
ery, it was reported, is in the
process of being shipped to Alas
ka from Tulsa, Okla.
The Shamrock company is re
portedly planning to begin initial
survey work and ground clearing
on the Port Chilkoot property
next month.
The Shamrock firm purchased
the property from the Port Chil
koot Co., Inc. and final negotia
tions were only recently com
pleted, it was learned.
The term baker’s dozen dates
back to early days in England
when tradesmen, fearing anti
fraud laws, gave 13 articles to the
