About the Alaska Development Board, “Alaska must have an economy to take the place of its present war economy. Especially in western Alaska. In Anchorage thousands of people have invested heayily in new homes, new busi- nesses, new apartment houses. At present we are financed by military spending. Some day the present military boom will collapse and we must have stable industry of some kind to take its place,” Goodman declared, Goodman said that he knew that the members of the Development Board were interested only in the progress of the territory. “We have no interest in politics. Our policy is that the development board is to be entirely non-political,” he said. progress SEPTEMBER 29 tide 12:35 am., 16.0 ft tide 6:46 am. 03 ft. tide 1:03 pm., 16.7 ft. 7 pm., 09 ft. e o o | with OP.S | required to post their ceiling prices the | the regulations, KPNA Inaugura Maurc'n Connolly, copy from Asso teen-aged U. as a copy girl for the San Diego Union. 17 Sept. 17, won the tennis title at Forest Hill tinue tennis pr:u'lifl' between working hours.
