Glen Wilder, Executive i Director and Secretary for the Au- !thority, arrived in Juneau a week lago to advise the legislature of the | Authority’s program meet thel ihousing crisis existing in Alaska, land to be present for the opoard [ meeting. “The lack ot decent, standard {housing is the greatest single bottle- neck retarding the development and {growth of Alaska and improvement to the health problem of the Ter- ritory today,” Wilder declared, “and to meet this need the Alaska Hous- ing Authority has developed a i comprehensive program which in- cludes anticipated federal aids for { | heusing in an amount in excess of $10,000,000, and implementing legislation by the Territory.” Delegate’s Proposal H On January 6. Delegate E. L.| Gartlelt introduced in Congress il designed to alleviate the ci al shertare of housing in two ways: i 1. By amending the National | fousing Act, adjustments are made in the FHA insurance program ch are adapted specifically to ka. This section of the bill s the limit of FHA insurance der Title 2 and Section 608 of National Housing Act, from |} $10,800 per family dwell- it.also provides a means ‘fective government loan proziam through the Federal Na- Laid favorite. tional Mortgage Agency. 1. $10.000,000 is appropriated to he Alaska Housing Authority for se of making loans to in-¢ £ and of constructing eusing upen the petition and: howing of need of any local com- uiity of the Territory. This fund 1l be administered through the 1 nz and Home Finance Agen- izi Washington, D. C. In his re- cent message to Congress, President | man recognized the seriousness | he housing situation in Alaska id took particular note of this Glen condition in recommending the -ssage of this bill. Executive and administrative branches of the overnment have given their full- est support; and it is expected that carly appreval will be given to this measure. Appropriation Asked “To supplement and to provide the Alaska Housing Authority with advance administration funds, and for other purposes. there has been introduced in the Territorial legis- lature a bill which would appro- priate $250,000 as Alaska’s share in this program. The Territorial legislation is necessary in order for the Alaska Housing Authority to be able to accept the Federal Grant,” says Wilder. | Community Problem “In every community in Alaska we have the problem—a normal program of home building can’t exist so long as the relation be- tween building costs and our buy- ing ability remain so out of pro- portion. The ultimate solution will +be to bring these two factors in line with one another. One of the | quickest ways to bring building 1costs to a normaley is to develop | the manufacturing and production {of the basic building materials and | thus avoid the evils of our presant ! methods of remote purchasing. | Alaska has the resources and we must utilize them. The Housing ! Authority includes within their ! program a long range plan design- ed to promote and encourage to {the fullest the establishment of the local production of building | materials. | “Thousands of good prospective | citizens have been forced out of Alaska within the last few years because of housing situation. The exact number will never be known, luor will their loss ever be fully ! cvaluated. “We can talk from now on about {the development of Alaska, and health institutions to take care of our sick,” Wilder continued, “but niil we have an adequate supply 1 decent homes for the citizens of the Territory, development will be stvmied ky a lack of population, nd our hospitals will remain over- |crowded’ without having done any- thinz to remove the source of dis- which lies sheltered in the .bundance of poor housing. Alaska E is at the threshold of mnew ad- vances Leyond the dream of per- ! ons a few years ago. We must tert to build an adequate supply 1| f housing now, for with the most i 3 ase ifective program possible we will emain behind many years." S e Flexible Flier Sleas at Madsen's. Jpen noon until 6, . the demand for et P P P Iso that it will | that min tactics from proponents of the measure. “This is a dellterate delay passage of the Bill,” Rep. Owen charged. “Those who made and support this motion are acting in the mterest of employers who attempt to ‘want to dodge their respensibili- ties,” he added. . Rep. Nolan challenged the right of any House member to question his onesty or intentlons in offering the motion.” “I am for this bill ana will vote for it if we get it in proper form stand up in the ourts,” Nolan asserted. He pointed out that certain weak- nesses had been discovered iff the measure and that both Labor Com- miss'oner and Attorney General ad mitted these factors. Rep. Abel Anderson termed th measure “The Magna Carta of la- vor.” Rep. Owen quoted the At- torney General as.saying that it is! v good bill and asserted that “no nz in this House is better quali- lied to write a bill than the At- orney General.” Rep. Dale urged that the bill be assed and “let the courts decide vhether it is legal or not. Rep. Angerman spoke ‘n favor of he Lill and called for the previol uestion, throwing the House inic onfusion for some moments.
