Matanuska’s Second Winter Finds
Midwest ‘Pioneers’ in High Hopes
p A L M E R, Alaska. - Uncle
1 Sam’s “pioneer” Matanuska
colony has dug in for Its second
winter; dug in with nearly 100,*
000 pounds of food in Its com
munity warehouse and with high
confidence in the future.
One hundred and fifty of the
200 Michigan, Minnesota and
Wisconsin farm families, all on
direct relief, who came here at
government expense for a new
start in life in May, 1935, have
remained to wring success from
their toil.
• • •
'FHE approach of the colony’s
A second winter finds an en
couraging picture. The last year
has definitely proved the valley’s
ability to produce profitable ag
ricultural products.
All of the colonists now are
living in their own homes, each
with a 40-acre tract of land to
clear and cultivate. About 1000
acres of Individual farms are
cleared for cultivation. The col
onists, after providing for their
own needs, have deposited in the
community warehouse nearly
100,000 pounds of vegetables.
At the community center, here
in Palmer, a modern hospital of
22 beds, a central schoolhouse,
teachers’ quarters, a creamery, a
cannery, a power plant and
warehouses have been completed
and are in operation. A radio sta
tion and other buildings are
under construction.
There are 304 children at
school and the general store re
ports a 20 per cent increase in
business during the last six
months over the previous six
months.
“The morale of the Matanuska
community is excellent,’’ reports
Col. Otto F. Ohlson, president of
the Alaska Rural Rehabilitation
corporation. “The farmers have
had a good year. They have
been industrious and, in my
judgment, they will make good
on their obligations to the gov
ernment.”
All of the colony’s surplus
products have been sold at prices
comparing favorably with those
in the states, Ohlson further
points out. He predicts Alaska
can, and will, consume all of the
excess products which Mata
nuska can produce in the future.
• • •
r\NE contention alone seems to
trouble some of the colonists
—the size of their final bill to
the government. The average
debt will aggregate $5000, it is
believed. Many feel this too
high. Still others declare “the
government couldn’t chase us
out.” Some are now paying up.
Meanwhile, in Washington, the
government reports a waiting list
of 3000 families who want home
steads in Matanuska. The colony
seems due to stay!
Promised Land
Pioneers In the modern manner were the 200 midwest farm fami
lies who trekked to Alaska in the spring of 193$ to settle op Uncle
Sam's first government-planned experiment In rehabilitation. The
photos here, starting trom the top, depict chronologically the story
of settlement in the frrtile Matanuska valley, 45 miles inland from
Anchorage.

On Second Term For FRI
Given In Latest Survey

Service, The Constitution And Revision
Of Tax Set-up

cans want answered as the second term is nearing. Concise
answers are given by an Associated Press survey.
Q. When will President Rooseveu
take office? (Why change the date?)
A. On January 20. 1937. The 20th
or "lame duck" amendment to th<
constitution changed the Inaugura
tion of the president from the tra
ditional March 4th date.
Q. What is the number of th<
new congress and when will it con
vene.
A. The new congress will be the
75th and will be convened at noor
on January 5.
Q. What are the party splits ir
each house?
A. In the senate there are 7!
Democrats, 17 Republicans, 1 Inde
pendent, 1 Progressive and 2 Farm
er-Laborltes. In the house then
are 334 Democrats, 89 Republicans
7 Progressives and 5 Farmer-Lab
orltes.
Q. What kind of support Is Presi
dent Roosevelt likely to have lr
congress?
A. Overwhelming, apparently. Re
election necesltieS of 1938 and th<
effect of increased Roosevelt pres
tige Indicate any development o
tratlon legislative policies probably
will be slow.
Q. What cablnt members seem
likely to remain?
A. While Mr. Roosevelt has given
no indications, It is generally re
garded that Cordell Hull, secretary
of State: Henry Morgenthau, Jr.,
secret&ryi of the treasury; and
Henry A. Wallace, secretary of ag
riculture, are certain to remain.
Q. Has business given any indi
cation of what Its attitude will be
towards a second Roosevelt admin
istration?
A. By Inference only. Its spokes
men's comment on the Roosevelt
re-election suggested acceptance of
the New Deal as a fact for the
next few years and a business pol
icy of seeking to co-operate with
Washington.
Q. Is there any reason to be
lieve the supreme court's attitude
towards New Deal measures will Be
Influenced by President Roosevelt’s
re-election?
A. No.
Q. Has President Roosevelt indi
cated that he will make an imme
diate effort to balance the budget?
A. At Hyde Park after the elec
tion. the president declared that he
was “going back to Washington to
try and balance the budget, thereby
carrying out the first of the cam
paign pledges."
Q. What is likely to be done about
Passamaquoddy and the Florida
ship canal?
A. Representatives of Maine and
Florida In congress are expected to
press for the reopening of these
projects with no likelihood that
bills to that end would be vetoed
by the president.
Q. What has been said about re
vival of the NRA or a 30-hour week
movement?
A. In reply to Governor Landon
during the campaign. President
Roosevelt declared: “Of course, we
will continue to seek to improve
working conditions for the workers
of America, to reduce hours over
long, to Increase wages that spell
starvation, to end the labor of chil
dren, to wipe out sweatshops. Of
course, we will continue every ef
fort to end monopoly in business,
to support collective bargaining, to
stop unfair competition, to abolish
unfavorable trade practices. For all
these we have only just begun to
fight.”
William Green, president of the
American Federation of Labor, says
an Immediate drive will be launch
ed for White House support of an
NRA alternative—the Black-Con
nery 30-hour week bill and the
O'Mahoney licensing measure for
industry.
Q. Is the civil service likely to be
expanded?
A. Yes. President Roosevelt re
committed himself on that point
in the campaign and will be less
hampered by patronage demands
in the new congress and the neces
i sity of creating additional emer
gency agencies outside the civil
service that marked his first term.
Some emergency agencies already
.have been reduced.
Q. Is there any reason to believe
that President Roosevelt will seek
constitutional amendments?
A. The 1936 Democratic plat
form, to which President Roosevelt
has said “I heartily subscribe,” de
clares that if national problems
cannot be solved by legislation
“within the constitution” such clar
ifying amendments as may be found
necessary will be sought.
Q Is any ehangs in supreme
court membership likely in the near
future?
A. Deaths or retirements may
change the complexion of the court.
Six Justices are past the retire
ment age. including four of the five
members oescriDea as conservatives.
Q. Is there any reason to antici
pate inflation on the basis of
President Roosevelt’s statements?
A. No .The president early in his
administration was given authority
by congress to expand the currenry
but has never used it. The strategy
behind the move was to remove the
threat of inflationists in congress.
Q. Has President Roosevelt indi
cated that there will be any less
experimentation in this administra
tion?
A. No. In his last major cam
paign address he said he had
' "orfly Just begun to fight" for the
objectives aimed at by his first
administration.
Q. Is there any reason to believe
President Roosevelt may. try for a
third term?
A. No. If he has any such
thoughts in his own mind he has
kept them carefully cqncealed thus
far.
Q. What tax revision is likely?
A. Revision of the 1936 revenue
, get imposes on undistributed cor
poration net profits. Rising tax
yields due to business recovery and
complaint that the tax hampers re
covery combine to indicate such a
revision.
Q. Will federal relief be continued
‘ in its present form?
, A. Yes, at least until the effects
of rising recovery on unemployment
j can be measured. The relief ad
ministration may, however, be merg
ed under a consolidation program
