He said that he had been informed that officials in propriation for this city on a 50- 50 basis. The total amount for such a project, he said, will depend upon how much the city can con- tribute Get Defense Equipment Gov. .Gruening said that arrange- ments have been made to furnish Alaskan communities with equip- ment vital to civilian defense ac- tivities would consist mainly of auxiliary fire fighting apparatus. The Gov- ernor said that forms with which cities may apply for clvilian de- fense equipment now have reached the Territory and are available to city officials. Alaska’s chief executive said that Alaska definitely will be affected by the rationing program brought about by the war. He said, how- ever, that during his stay in Wash- ington he had attempted to impress on rationing officials that condi- tions are special in Alaska and call for different treatment than the States. He said that after observing the tremendous demands being made in Washington for priority ratings from all sources of industry, he would advise Alaska miners to de- velop the production of strategic minerals and “not to put all of their mining eggs into the gold bas- ket.” He said that he sought to in- terest the government in the po- tentialities of Alaska as a land wealthy in strategic minerals which could be used in the war effort. The Governor said that he had | been successful in impressing on, Washington officials the consg- quences of any wholesale closing down of the gold mining industty here, unless the miners and mine operators could be shifted to the mining of ores that are more im- portant to the war industry. He said that. the gold mining industry is bound to 'stffer. . ' * b Gels Priority Ratings prise in Alaska’ now. - Gov.
