Dr. Ostrom, health of- ficer, will immediately take care of the work of sanitation, and the workmen will go to work on var- jous tasks in making the project a real settlment. As the colonists| arrive each will be assigned to a piece of land and will have one of| the transient workers to help him| in erecting his permanent house. Work on the community cente which will have a commissary, creamery, church, school and so forth also will be started at once and by fall it is expected that all the houses and the community center buildings will be erected Provisions for two months are being taken to the project, Mr. Irwin said. In the meantime bids will supplies. Buy in Alaska “Everything available will be bought in Alaska,” the director as- serted, “and will be handled through the commissary store on the project.

Each loan will be made direct to the individual farmer, $3,000 at three per cent interest, nothing of which will have to be paid the first five years. At the end of that time it is expected the colonists will be in shape to start paying back on their loans. Each colonist is under contract with the Government for five years. Deeds to the farmers will be held in escrow by the ARRC until the are paid off as in any private business, and the colonist will be given individual title when he has made his payment. At the outset tractors, trucks and certain; other equipment will be handled as community property by the| ARRC and the farmers will be al- lowed to borrow them for their use. Help Those Already There People already living in the val-) ley are to be given the same priv-| ileges the imported colonists,; Irwin explained. That is, loan will be made them to carry on| their farming operations. There are as farmers.

Under the FERA the men were assembled | from labor camps scattered over the country, and Dr. Ostrom said not one state had been overlobked, and all are skilled workmen. The transient camp workers are paid at the rate of around $35 a month, but will be allowed but v a week while in the Matanuska, the remainder of the money being paid them when they return to the States in six months.
