Heintzleman Doubtful
Statehood Bill Will Pass
This Session of Congress
. ANCHORAGE, (#)—Alaska even
tually will get statehood, Gov. B.
Frank Heintzleman said here Sat
urday, but he expressed doubt it
would come in the current session
of Congress.
Speaking at the Chugiak spring
carnival, the territorial governor
said he had given up hope the
stalemate in the House of Repre
• sentatives could be broken during
this session of Congress.
But, he said, “members of Con
gress have become enlightened to
the demands of the Alaskan peo
ple for statehood. I am sure it will
come.
He said the opposition in Wash
ington to statehood centered
around several objections.
First, he cited the President’s
" mention of defense factors in dis
cussions of statehood for the ter
ritory. Second, members of Con
gress are opposed to inclusion of
the undeveloped areas of the Far
North and West, and others feel
more development is necessary
throughout the territory.

Irving Reed Says
Funds Lacking
For Alaska Roads
JUNEAU—Motor fuels tax mon
ies available to the Territorial
Board of Road Commissioners are
running about equal to 1953 re
ceipts, but there still isn’t nearly
enough to meet requests for road
and harbor work throughout the
territory, Highway Engineer Ir
ving M. Reed said last week.
A grand total of $206,542.52 col
lected in the first quarter of 1954
came to $179,184.43 from vehicle
fuel taxes, $16,103.30 from boat
fuel taxes and $11,254.79 from
motor vehicle licenses.
Vehicle receipts were up 11.67
over the comparable period in
1953 but receipts from boat fuel
were down 16.55 percent.
Vehicle receipts fell 20.25 per
cent below their 1953 level in the
First Division and 33.95 percent
in the Second, but were up 18.8
percent in the Third and 10.82
percent in the Fourth. Boat re
ceipts were down 16.05 percent in
the First and 20.05 in the Third.
A meeting of the Board of Road
Commissioners has been. set for
June 15 at Fairbanks to decide
how to distribute available money
to the many projects on the terri
tory’s list. The amount which may
be expended on road jobs, Reed
said, is reduced by $40,000 per
month which the last legislature
directed had to be paid out of the
motor fuel tax to the Territorial
Department of Police.
