His creation, Proposition 10 on the general election ballot, would give Alaskans varying acreage based on the length of their residence. Beirne’s Homestead Initiative fol lows the trail blazed in California by Howard Jarvis and Proposition 13. Beirne, too, offered it to the Alaska Legislature and watched it suffocate in the quicksands of legis lative committees. He then circu lated petitions which were en thusiastically endorsed, forcing the issue before the voters. Beirne, like Jarvis, blamed “over-government” and capital bureaucracy for the delay in making public lands available to private owners. Also, Alaska’s Gov. Jay Hammond is as opposed to 10 as California’s Edmund G. Brown Jr. was to 13, and, like 13, the pollsters predict 10 will pass by a large major ity. than all his predecessorso "It’s a phony issue to Hammond explained, going to be mass convey^ land, far more than all diet have been conveyed sincfl hood whether I or someoiJ governor.

Have a professional resume prepared by BUSINESS & COMMUNICATION SERVICES Call 846-5794 for an appointment Beirne struck a responsive chord when he proposed that every Alas kan 18 years or older be given ac reage in proportion to the time he has lived here. Three years of resi dency would qualify for 40 acres, five would be worth 80 acres and a decade in the 49th state entitled those sourdoughs to 160 acres. When granted statehood, Alaska was given the right to select 104 million acres from the 375 million federally owned lands comprising the state. But the delays and federal land freezes have slowed the trans fer much to the frustration of the land-hungry Alaskans. "The cheapest thing in Alaska should be land, said Beirne, "but it’s the most expensive. Farming up here has all but disappeared as far mers are selling their land to real estate developers for fantastic prices. The state government is merely the trustee of these lands; it is only holding the acreage and managing it for us. Now we want it hack." Beime says cheap land will not only help Alaska agriculture, but will also make for a “happy and in dustrious people. ship, Beirne said, "andaj state was supposed to come; state with the same privili original 13.

But he is alive and well, thanks to public financial aid. Nine years ago, a close relative of Campbell died from kidney failure because the family could not afford the cost of dialysis, the use of an arti ficial kidney to filter waste products out of the blood. Public Law 92-603, passed by Congress in 1972, amended the So cial Security Act to provide treat ment under the federal and state Medicaid program for virtually everyone with life-threatening kid ney disease. That coverage became effective in 1973 and that was the year Campbell’s kidneys failed as the re sult of Alport’s Syndrome, a kidney ailment that had taken the lives of five male members of his family be fore the age of 28. He was 27 at the time and teaching at a small private college in Iowa. Campbell went on dialysis and noted, “It was a visible means of proof that although renal failure bad occurred, life could be prolonged." In a special report published in the New England Journal of Medicine, Campbell and his wife, Anne, said they decided to train to carry out the dialysis three days a week at home instead of the hospital where most kidney patients un dergo the treatment. “Home dialysis, like many things in life, had its high and low mo ments, the Campbells wrote. “There were times of sharing, friendship and thankfulness tended life and its meanings asures. There were also time 1 ' spair, crisis, pain and wearinS After 15 months of home di Campbell received a kidney plant. But five days after I ceived a kidney from a call Campbell faced a severe tiss fi jeetion problem that lasted 16' “It was during this timet! realized that transplantation* instant panacea and that, in respects, it was like trading^ of problems (dialysis) for anott* (transplantation). ” The kidney began to wort the rejection episode, but rd 1 tation went slowly. There we* eral unpleasant side effects fro® treatment administered tosifl the body’s immune system In vent further rejection. “As time went on, howevfli kidney began to function better, the dosage of drugs was redut* the point where the adversef* began to diminish. In tiinf' began to realize a better life th 1 had experienced on dialysis. "We live a very normal life seldom have to think about)' health except for the problei* susceptibility to infection lack of endurance which miistk commodated.” The Campbells reported ttf cost of dialysis at home (far les pensive than in the hospital) aged $1,907 a month. Tlie transplant expenses, spread o" months through Dee. 31, came to $495 a month. iu
