NWA Chamber Reviews
Results of Busy Week
Of Meetings and Hearings
Officers and members of the
NWA Chamber of Commerce had
a busy week which was reviewed
at the noon meeting on Monday.
In addition to the Intrastate
Aeronautical Commission hearing
which was attended by the Trans
portation Committee on Wednes
day, and the State Planning Com
mission hearing on Friday, a spe
cial meeting was held with Sen.
E. L. Bartlett who came to Nome
unexpectedly on the matter of de
fense. He met with the Chamber
Board of Directors Friday night.
Bartlett gave little encourage
ment for building of offense in
stallations in this coastal area be
cause it appears to be too close
to Siberia. _
A discussion concerning 'the
proposed wildlife refuge north
east of Fairbanks, brought out the
information that it would cost
the state about $275,000 a year.
Some encouragement was given
to Nome’s proposed sewerage and
water system, under a bill passed
by Congress which provides aid
to communities with predomin
antly native populations to build
health facilities. The matter is
under study by a committee of
the Chamber. %
The serious crisis of the over
whelming school population, now
augmented by the closing of the
King Island school, was discussed.
It was brought out that these
children are a distinct liability
to the city and the school finan
cial-wise, since these people con
tribute almost nothing in the way
of tax income — and it is from
the real property tax that the City
of Nome derives the money to pay
its share of school operation costs.
The Chamber Board of Direc
ors will pursue some special
course of action in the matter, it
was decided.

Russian Visitors Note
Warming Atmosphere
In U.S.-Russian Relations
I SEATTLE, UP — Five Russian
scientists in the Northwest to
study fisheries problems arrived
here Monday and said they noted
a “certain warming up of the at
mosphere” in U. S. - Soviet rela
l tions.
‘And you know, fish also are
caught at a certain temperature,”
Audrey S. Gaidukov, the group’s
spokesman said.
The Russian scientists are reJ
turning a month-long visit recent
ly made by four American fish
eries experts. At that time the
two groups reached agreement on
an exchange of scientific data in \
an effort to determine what is
causing North Pacific salmon
stocks to diminish.
The Russians left Tuesday for a
| 13-day tour in Alaska. They have
been accompanied on their North-1
west tour by Samuel J. Hutchin- j
son, director of the Federal Bu
reau of Commercial Fisheries,
who was on the Russian trip.
38 Million Dollar
Road Program
Outlined for 1960
JUNEAU, UP—A 38-million dol
lar highway construction and
planning program for Alaska next (
year was announced Tuesday by
the State Department of Public
Works.
Another 3V2 million dollars, *
available as a result of Alaska’s
first full participation in the
^federal highway program, was
held apart from the actual con
struction allocations.
The latter sum was slated for
emergency or other use—includ
ing possible expenditures in con
nection with a proposed South
eastern ferry system if congres
sional legislation is approved to
make a start on the so - called
water highway.
One of the chief features of the
1960 program is the start of con
struction on a highway that even
tually will connect Anchorage and
Fairbanks along the railbelt.
Nearly 5Vfc million dollars will
go in the next year for construc
tion of a road north from Willow
to Talkeetna and other road and
bridge projects south from Fair
banks to Rex, a few miles south
of Clear.
The roads eventually will be
extended to meet at McKinley
Park, providing a direct north
south link between the state’s
two largest cites.
No End In Sight For
Algerian Rebellion
PARIS, UPi—The outlook for an
early end to the bitter Algerian
rebellion appeared as gloomy as
ever today.
A rebel proposal to meet with
President Charles De Gaulle fail
ed to draw any immediate res
ponse from the French president.
The provisional rebel govern
ment announced Monday it was
ready to discuss a ceasefire and
details of De Gaulle’s promise of
self - determination for Algeria’s
nine million Moslems.
The carefully worded statement
was in reply to De Gaulle’s Sept.
16 declaration spelling out a new
course for the rebellious north
African territory.
The French leader promised a
referendum in Algeria not later
than four years after the end of
fighting. He said the Moslems
could choose either independence,
integration with France or limited
autonomy.
De Gaulle had asserted in his
declaration he would not discuss
Algeria’s future with what he de
scribed as a “group of ambitious
agitators”—the rebel government.
