PAGE SIX U. 5. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY MAY MAKE THOSE MAPS WE SEE ‘Those familiar maps that every- one has seen with Alaska superim- rosed upon the “mother country” may be about to be created by the department that really knows how to make maps—the U.S. Geological Survey. It seems the ones which appear now and then are strictly amateur | productions, not actually done to ccale, Lbut produced by those who wish Outsiders to know how big Alaska really is. Because few government bureaus and private industry officials re- alize the Territory's length and treadth, the Survey may tackle the job and make it offi- cial. This was disclosed this morning by John P, Kelly. budget officer of the Alaska Native Service, who re- cently returned from preparing and testifying upon the proposed Indian Affairs budget for the coming fiscal | year in Washington. Kelly made the suggestion him- self in the capitol, that such maps e made and circulated, because of erratica constantly showing up in conversations and even docu- ments which show absolute ignor- ance in some quarters that it's more than a before-breakfast hike trom | Ketchikan to Fairbanks. One difficulty presented itseli with the project—the literal and exacting Geological Survey in put- ting things where they actually Lelong, might find that Shishmaret was in juxaposition with Dosewal- EYES EXAMINED LENSES PRESCRIBED DR.

Although Kelly didn't say so, it was indicated the maps would ke along the same line as those now produced, with Southeast Alaska lying on Ohio and the Aleutians streaching out to California, and the chain would stretch to—you guessed it—Alaska! GOVERNMENT AID T0 EDUCATION IS NECESSARY: SEARS States with high standards of ed- ucation suffer from the poorer ed- ucation given students in other states, and the Federal Government should aid those states which can’t afford to spend enough for the ed- ucation of their young peo=e. This was brought out by Super- intenedent of Schools Sterling $. Sears when he spoke at the Par- ent-Teacher Association meeting in the Juneau High School Auditor- ium last night. Speaking on “The Federal Gov- ernment and Education,” he point- ed out that the mgobility of workers at present brings workers from states with low educational stand- ards to states with higher stan- dards. He said the penalties of in- equality in educational opportunity may be felt through the inef- { | THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA EXPLANATORY' TYPE BUDGET READIED FOR ANS 1951 NEEDS John P. Kelly, budget officer for the Alaska Native Service, is back on the job in Juneau today after being on the job in Washington since September 26 preparing and testifying on the proposed 1951 budget for Indian Affairs to go be- fore Congress next session. The involved and lengthy bud- get, highly detailed, now asked is highest of any proposed so far by tation program being considered by department officials for native vil- lages, particularly in the far north. The figures asked are combined with Indian Affairs bureaus in the states. Alaska has for some time been granted a separate budget be- cause of its peculiar problems, but for the sake of coordination, a icombination was worked out this éyen.r, { The budget is on the “perform- {ance” basis, as are all government sion put forth its findings after studying administration problems of all departments. Prior budgets had been worked out on geographical, administration, | | | but now all must appear on the| ANS, because of a general rehabili- | for the first time in many years | agencies since the Hoover Commis- | or other bases for various bureaus, 'TRADE: ASSOCIATION FAVORS RAILROAD, ALASKA FROM STATES | At its 22nd general conference |1ast week, the Pacific Northwest | Trade Association went on record | as favoring appropriations for a lo- | cation survey for a railroad through western Canada into Alaska. At the same time, the Association | expressed a favorable attitude to-| ward an amendment to the Ship| Sales Act which would stop a raise | in Alaskan freight rates. Thic was revealed by B. Frank | Heintzleman, Regional ~ Forester | here and Alaska Vice President of | |the Association, who returned Juneau Sunday bringing with him copies of the resolutions adopted! at the conference. | In its resolution concerning the |1947 FORD four door sedan. R. W. | railroad, the Association said: This association urges the appro- priation of funds, at the earliest | possible date, adequate to complete | an engineering and economic sur- vey of the propostion to determine | its justification. Since the Maritime Commission has decided to stop barsboat chart- ers after June 30, 1050, Alaskan | ! cperators want to purchase a class | of vessel esepecially suitable for 'use in Alaska waters. Sale price of these ships is $139 per ton. | Buying ships at this price would to | 14 performance basis, Kelly explained.! make necessary a “decided freight | Another feature will be an explan- lincrease,” the Association resolu- ficlency and poor workmanship of | the migrating workers. This also applies when workers from rural areas, where educational standards tend to be lower, more to urban areas, he declared. Sears said the Federal Govern- | ment should step in and aid poorer | states in bringing thelr educatonal | standards to par with those states | atory paragraph to appear below each itcm asked, to explain its need and usage. This will enable the layman bet- ter to understand what the budget is all about, Kelly pointed out, and will point out to him what each department acutally dces. Previous- ly figures were often meaningless which can afford high educational standards. He said that a bill introduced in the Senate and now bogged down in a House committee would give Fad- eral aid of five dollars per child to states for educational purposes. More than 75 parents and teach- ers were present at the P.-T.A. meeting last night. They heard President Harry Sperling announce that P.-T.A. membership now to- tals 190. A Forest Service movie was shown at the meeting, and refreshments were served after the meeting.

The 1951 budget—so named be- cause its term is completed July 1, 1951—will include money for construction and maintenance of 712 hospital beds, of which 432 are now caring for patients. The added figure includes 200 in the Mt. Edge- {cumbe Hospital, and 80 in Bethel, | Kotzebue, Pt. Barrow and Kanakak. The Bethel beds are now ready, bu perscnnel must be recruited before they can receive patients. The rehabilitation program for villages is for new housing, war- houses, water and sewage systems. None of the Arctic villages under the wing of ANS corld qualify *for work to be done under the new Puklic Works Act, because their economic level is too low to allow them to pay back any money loan- ed, Don C.
