No Change
In Price Control
Juneau—There is no change
in policy or application ot
existing price control regula
tions in Alaska, Fred Han
ford, director of Office of
Price Stablilization said this
week.
There has been some ques
tion as to the status of the
OPS under the 30-day exten
sion granted by Congress last
week.
Under the resolution ex
tending controls Congress
stipulated there could be no
rollbacks by virtue of existing
regulations. The regulations
referred to are manufacturers’;
regulations.
Hanford pointed out that all
retail and wholesale regula
tion^, including Alaska’s regu
lation 9, are not affected by
the action.

ALASKA'S GREATEST NEED:
More
Population
TODAY THERE ARE some 130,000 men, women and children
living in Alaska—an area covering 586,400 square miles.
The Territory’s population is 0.21 persons per square mile. In
the continental United States, the average is 50 persons per
square mile.
• To grow and prosper as it should, Alaska needs thousands of
new residents.
The answer to this problem is new, diversified industries.
Historically the Alaska salmon industry—unfortunately a seasonal
enterprise because of extremely short periods when the runs of
salmon occur—has been the Territory’s largest and its heaviest
taxpayer.
Nature dictates when salmon can he caught and processed.
This month, for example, the industry’s activity is concentrated in
Bristol Bay.
It would be to the advantage of everyone in Alaska and this
industry if others came to the Territory and helped develop this
great country. This is well worth encouraging and fighting for.
