Interior Dept.
To Consider
Fur Processing
Plant in Alaska
WASHINGTON OP — The In
terior Department will consider
a proposal to establish a plant to
process Pribilof Island seal skins
in Alaska, an official of the Alas
ka Chamber of Commerce said
Thursday.
Don Dickey, general manager
of the Alaskan Chamber, said
this and other proposals discuss
ed with federal officials In a two
day round of talks were well re
ceived.
A fur processing plant in this
state, said Dickey, “would provide
an opportunity to put Auaska re
sources into use by Alaskans and
help the state's economy.”
Dickey said he also asked the
Interior Department to consider
allowing non-native management
of reindeer herds in Alaska and
suggested that a fur processing
plant may also handle reindeer
pelts.
Japanese intentions to start
bottom fishing operations in
waters off Kodiak were discussed
with State Department officials.
Dickey told them of fears that
Russians also might move into
the area, providing further com
petition for an already ailing
fishing industry.
“They were aware of the Alas
ka problem,” he said, adding he
would submit more detailed views
on the subject to the department.
At the Commerce Department,
Dickey was told the proposed
Commerce Field Office in Alaska
would employ 3 to 4 persons at
first and that it is hoped the of
fice can be set up in the fall of
1962.
