THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 1, ALCOA REPLIES T0 CHAMBER; BANKERS: ARE GUESTS TODAY Members of the Alaska Bankers Association and visiting stateside representatives were guests at thel Juneau Chamber of Commerce lunchon at the Baranof Hotel this noon. Elmer Rasmuson, ABA, outlined the V: Association as fellowships, understanding of problems, change of ideas and mentioned leg- islation. “It is not a coincidence that we are meeting here at this| time,” he said. Rasmuson then in- troduced visiting bankers. N. S. Penrose of the Seattle Loan| Agency of the RFC gave a short talk on the relationship of his agency with banks. A letter from the Auminum Com- pany of America was read. | Tax incentive legislation \umku enhance the chances of the Alunm‘r num Company of America’s pro-;| posed huge hyroelectric project at| Taiya, I. W. Wilson, senior vicc| president of the company, indicated in a letter to the Juneau Chambe. of Commerce. The letter dated Jai. uary 25 read: ‘We very much appreciate your having written as you did on Jan- uary 16. We are as exercised as you are over the possible adverse effec on our proposed aluminum project near Skagway Alaska, of the pro- posed Canadian development at Kitimat, B. C. 4‘ “As you are undoubtedly a\wrow the Kitimat project is that of the Aluminum Company of Canada and there is no connection whatsoever between that company and the Aluminum Company of America Therefore, except as Canadian gov- | ernmental cooperation would b needed for our Alaskan projec there is no reason from our poinf of view why the Alaskan project should be denicd every reasunable consideration. by all interested gov ernment agencies and representa- tives. President of | Astonishment “We, were astounded when news- paper reports indicated that pos | sibly some of our government repre sentatives were giving considera. | tion to a long term contract for th purchase of aluminum from the Aluminum Cc. of Canada which would have the effect, whether ox not it was the intent, of putting the Canadian company in a bettex financial position to undertak their Kitimat developmeat. We hav been told that such newspaper re: ports had no justification, and a nearly as we can determine, it is quite improbable that any direct or| indirect assistance of this or any| other character will be given to the Aluminum Co. of Canada by our government. | “We are continuing in our efforts/ to have our proper governmental agencies understand and appreciate the opportunities presented by our proposed project in Alaska but find' certain understandable hesitancy on their part to approve this projecu' at this time becanse of two factors— the first being the geographic loca- | tion with all that entails, and sec-| = ond, the length of time required to obtain aluminum production from this project. I can only assure '»m.; that our interest in this project is u.\ continuing one. ‘ Tax Problems “When we are in a position to| actively proceed with this Alaskal project, many factors will have t receive careful consideration and it |- would be most helpful if we could be assured of an understanding ap- proach to what would ke our tax problems. We are, therefore, very interested in what you have say in regard to proposed legislation ; The Rum mith a Reputation i |‘ for | soft flavor | unique bouquet. Sole U. S.

I am sure that at some more appropriate time we will welcome the opportunity of knowi 1st exactly what your suggest proposals are. “I .doubt very much whether g this time there is anything that you as a Chamber of Commerce can or should be doing in connection with this matter. Both Governor Gruen- | ing and your delegate to Congress, Mr. Bartlett, are most active and | cooperative. I am sure if they knew of anything more which could| = properly be done they would see that | it was called to your attention.” EARLE HUNTER 111 IS IN ARMED SERVICES - AvALd — “JI[E; '»‘IYOO') < 0 Earle L.
