Borough Government . . .
(Continued from Page One)
ment units with their activities
and problems. These are the Local
Boundayr Commission and the
Local Affairs Agency. The Local
Boundary Commission is charged
with any proposed local govern
ment boundary change .The Local
Affairs Agency shall advise and
assist local governments . . . and
perform other duties prescribed
by law. Both of these agencies
have been established and are
functioning.
The transitional Article of the
Constitution states: “Cities, school
districts, health districts, and
other local subdivisions of gov
ernment existing on he effective
date of the Constitution shall con
tinue to exercise their powers
and functions under existing law,
pending enactment of legislation
to carry out the provision of the
Constitution. New local subdi
visions of government shall be
created only in accordance with
the Constitution.” Therefore, it
is very apparent that the Legisla
ture must act and act soon on
the passage of methods and pro
cedures for the establishment of
the local unit of government
known as the borough.
Five bills were introduced in
the First Session of the Alaska
State Legislature none of them
passed the two Houses of the Leg
islature and only one of them
succeeded in passing the House in
which it originated. Why? First,
the concept of borough govern
ment is new, not only to Alaska,
but there is no precedence for it
in any of our state governments.
Secondly, the borough form of
government was designed to give
the maximum of autonomy to
the people that it was to govern
and they frankly did not know
what they wanted. Thirdly, suffi
cient hearings had not been held
and the people all had a different
idea of what they wanted.

Money Problems Confront
Tourist Facilities in State
JUNEAU — Gov. Egan said
today the state is studying every
possible means of encouraging the
development of new tourist facili
ties in Alaska.
Commenting on a renewed
recommendation by State Rep.
Russ Meekins of Anchorage that
the state establish a $100 million
revolving fund for such develop
ment, Egan told his Monday morn
ing news conference:
“Many of Mr. Meekins pro
posals certainly have merit, but
we are faced with the problem
of where the dollars are going to
come from.”
On the other subjects during
his news conference, Egan said:
He is considering the appoint
ment of an Anchorage newsman,
Joe Rothstein of the Daily News,
as the third special assistant in
the Governor’s Office, at a salary
of about $750 per month.
Rothstein would do general re
search work. Egan already has
two special assistants, Paul Solka
and Frank Vaille.
Egan said more help is needed
to handle an increasing work
load.
A fund drive to obtain spend
ing money for some 80 members
of Alaska’s two Eskimo Scout
Battalions, who will represent
the state in President-elect John
F. Kennedy’s Inaugural Parade,
has netted about $1,600 thus far.
The governor said the fund
drive was being conducted on a
nonpartisan basis. The Scouts will
be flown east in National Guard
aircraft. For many of the Scouts,
it will be their first trip outside
of Western Alaska.
“I regret,” Egan said, “that last
spring, when the Legislature was
in session, that we did not think
of the inaugural ceremonies com
ing up this year. I hope in the
future, the Legislature, on a non
partisan basis, will appropriate
a nominal amount to provide for
Alaska’s participation in the in
auguration of each new president.
There will be a public meeting
in the Federal Building on Thurs
day, Jan. 12 with Neil W. Foster,
director of Air Commerce for the
state.
