Lucas, formerly City Clerk This procedure was followed for six years in suc- cession. Today, Harry Lucas, not a candidate, should have ample reason tc look back on those &ix years | with pride. He has served the people of Juneau well and ably and it seems strange indeed to find Har name not on the ballot this year. | Six years in one office is a long time in the books of community service.

The industry fears that, with the flush period in production approaching, the market will be so flooded with butter that it will go to waste. One reason for this fear apparently is that consumers do not have enough points to buy all this butter. If this is the case, why couldn't point values be lowered sufficiently to permit the disposal of the surplus (about one-quarter of a pound per person), as was recently done with pork? Or is it feared that because butter is included in a combined ration there would be no assurance that a cut in point values would mean more demand? The picture is further confused by the War Food Administration, which in its daily market report Monday stated that “supplies” (of butter) in retail stores in most instances are close to adequate.” Cer- tainly it is illogical to contend that there is an ade- quate supply of butter available for consumers when it has been found necessary to ration this product severely. The increase in point avlues that has been adopted indicates how seriously ‘the authorities have uation. The initial value of eight points a pound was inereased steadily until it reached sixteen points. Now OPA: has reaffirmed this higher | point value for the coming month, thus indicating It has | that civilian suplpies are still very inadequate. also been suggested that this butter is old and hence should not be sold to the public. If this is the case, who is responsible for holding the butter so long that it has deteriorated? On numerous occasions the Government agencies have been accused of failure to consult adequately with industries, or, where they have consulted with them, of failure to follow through with common sense programs. In this case it appears as though a Gov- ernment agency is leaning over backward to accept in full an industry recommendation, to divert from civ- ilians to Lend-Lease a product which is in short sup- ply in the domestic market. We end up, in any cas with the paradoxical situation of an “excess supply which has made necessary the continuance of a sharp curtailment in demand through the establishment of high point values. Cer- tainly a fuller explanation of this situation is call- ed for. | Hoppin was mtroduced by Tom Dyer, who heads a committee work- |ing on air transportation problems of Juneau.
