The territorial allotment to co- cperative projects was $25,000. Ter- ritorial projects included only avi- ation fields, Nome Harbor and Unalakleet telephone line to which a total of $13,000 of territorial road funds was allotted for the work in 1930. Third Division Allctments to federal projects have been made aggregating $368,- 600 exclusive of $95000 for Me- Kinley ‘Park which is provided for in National Park Service appro- priations. This Alaska Road Com- mission allotment will provide for work on the Richardson Highway and its branches from Valdez and Chitina to Rapids, four projects in the Wasilla-Willow Creek district, Talkeetna system, Iliamna, Chu- litna and Dillingham and various trails. Cooperative Fund There will be available in addi- tion 53,500 for allotment to co- cperative road projects. This co- operative money is set up for al- lotment to construction of the Lucky Shot-Willow Station proj- ect, maintenance of other roads in the Willow Creek-Wasilla and Anchorage districts, the McCarthy- Dan Creek group of projects and a small project near Valdez. An ad- ditional $20,000 of federal funds is held in reserve for protection of the lower end of the Richardson Highway in the event the territory adcpts a project for the protection of Valdez. This will make the to- tal federgl contriduction to cooper~ ative projects $73,500, which is greater than last year. Last year the alotments were $483,000 to fed- eral projects and $56,100 to co- The. territorial ! allotments last year were $8,500 to cocperative projects and $34,050 to territorial projects including avi- ation fields and Valdez Dike in ad- dition to roads. Federal participation in the co- operative program is of course centingent on territorial contri- butions. This cooperation was in effect last year on the following projects to which the territory con- tributed: The Palmer-Fishhook, Goeld Chord Branch, Wasilla-Fin- ger Lake-Palmer, Wasilla-Mata- nusgka, Matanuska Trunk, Fish- . hook-Goldmint, and Werner Con- | nection, in the Wasilla section; | The Anchorage Loop and McDon- ald Branch in the Anchorage sec- tion; 'Valdez-Mineral Creek, Me- | Carthy-Glacier *Creek, Chititu Branch and the Kotsina, Bull Riv- er and Indian River trails.

The federal al- lotment alone is not sufficient, however, to give adequate service to this project and territorial co- operation is therefore justified. The federal program does not in- ‘Jude the following territorial proj- |ects to which territorial money was allotted last year: Palmer- Matanuska River, Palmer- Spring- | or, Mcose-Palnder, Palter-Ma ta- Edlund Road, Bogard Road, | Engsitum Road and Wasilla avia- tion field in the Wasilla section; he Spenard, Chester Cresk, Oil- well and Eklutna Roads in’'the An- chorage section; the Kasilof Road and Chitina-Native School Road, aviation fields and Valdez Dyke. Under its. reduced program the aska Road Commission will not be able to contribute funds to any. of these projects except Valdez Dyke and therefore if they are not supported by the térritory serious deterioration will prcbably resuit and no progress can be made on any new construction. The terri- torial allotments last year to this group of projects was $34,050. Fourth Division The total of allotments to fed- eral projects is $343,900 as com- pared with $276,100 for last year. The increase is due to the neces= sity of adopting the Livengood project as a replacement for the Tolovana tram ($40,000) and ur- gently necessary improvement of surfacing of the Steese Highway. The present allotment is to cover these projects, general mainten- ance of the Richardson Highway north of Rapids, the Steese High- way and branches, Ruby-Pcorman, Wiseman system, Ferry-Eva Creck, miscellaneous trails, Graehl Bridze overrun and a reconnaissance for | the Alaska section .cf the Pacific-! Yukon Highway. These allotments; e $8,000 federal funds for al-_ ent to cocperative projects asl compared with $31,375 Jast ycznq The projects to which the cooper- | ative allotments for this year may | be made include local roads in the Fairbanks system, Hot Springs roads, Circle Hot Springs, Yukon- Kuskokwim portage, Iditarod and | Ophir roads. The allotments of, territorial funds to cooperative projects last year was $14,000, Lo? territorial road projects $12,600 and ito aviation fields $11400 making | 638,000 in all to the Fourth Di-| vision. Several of the . territorial| and cooperative projects, such Circle Hot Springs road, Yuler Kuskokwim portage, and Hot | Springs-Eureka road . have becn | practically completed and will not| require as great expenditures in future.

Should substantial tcrnwr—‘ ial cooperation be given on thls\ rcad, in addition tfo the 340000 federal funds allotted to it f 1931, the progress on th2 pro, ect would be in much greater pro- portion than the amount of money | centributed and would greatly ac—‘ celerate the completion of project and the development of the Livengood area which may be ox- pected to follow this imprcyement. | Summary of Allotments [ i Following is a summary of thbl | federal allotments by judicial divi- 1930 and also the territorial allot-| ments for 1930: i Territorial Allotments | | For 1930 | Cooperative Cooperative Territorial Federal Projects Projects Projects Projects Division 1930 1931 1939 1931 1930 1930 First $. - $. $ 4350 $ 4000 *$ 6000 *$ 4600 Second .. 12,000 12,000 56,250 40,000 25,000 1 13,000 | Third .. 483,000 368,600 100t 73,500 8500 § 34,050 Fourth .. 276,000 343,900 375 8,000 14,000 1 24,000 o £ Total ...$771,100 $724,500 $148,075 $125,500 $ 53,500 $ 75,650 or work performed by others than t for protection of Valdez. n fields and Valdez dyke, { equipment and supplies from the CLAM PROTECTION URGED BY FEDERAL FISHERIES EXPERT| WASHINGTON, D.
