Wants To Take Over ANICA To
Protect Interests Of Native Stores!
WASHINGTON. UP) — Secretary '
McKay sgid Monday the Interior
Department wants to take over
management of the Alaska Native
Industries Cooperative Assn.
(ANICA), “to protect the financial
interest of the United States and
the operating interests of stores of'
the native* villages of Alaska.”
He said in a statement the ac
tion "was approved by a sub
stantial majority of the 33 native
village corporations making up
the membership of ANICA.” .
An official of the Indian Bu
reau told a reporter the Justice
Department recently asked a fed
eral judge in Seattle to grant an
emergency order directing the
“former manager of ANICA” to
turn over the assets and records
of the cooperative but the judge
ruled no emergency existed.
The official said the Justice
Department has since filed a mo
tion for a summary judgment

McKay’s statement did not
name the man it referred to as
the “former manager.” The In
dian Bureau official said the re
ference was to Lohis C. Peters
and added he understands Peters
contends he is still the manager.
McKay said the manager’s con
tract with the association expired
Dec. 31, 1952.
“Throughout 1953,” he added,
“the former manager was contin
ued on a" month-to-month basis
until it became clear that no new
contract could be consumated
with the former manager which
would adequately protect the fin
ancial interests of the United
States . . .
“When the former manager re
fused, after notification, to sur
render the assets and premises of
ANICA, the matter was referred
to the Department of Justice for
appropriate action . . .
“After the Department has
gained possession of ANICA, it
will operate the association only
for a short period until audits of
the former management can be
completed and a new manage
ment, satisfactory both to the
members and the* government, is
selected.”
ANICA was organized in 1947
to purchase commodities for
stores operated by some of the'
more remote Eskimo and Indian
villages of Alaska and to market !
products, such as furs, for them. |
Farmers are only about 12 per- j
cent of the U.S. population.
