Jobs in Alaska are scarce Despite a sharp rise in construction activity on the trans-Alaska pipeline this year, there are virtually no jobs available for casual workers going to Alaska, Assistant Secretary of Labor for Manpower William H. Kolberg said. Kolberg, reiterating earlier warnings by the U.S. Department of Labor about the lack of Alaskan pipeline jobs, said the sharp rise in unemployment has caused a new flurry of interest in jobs in Alaska. Alaska's unemployment rate, 12.6 percent in February, is among the nation's highest. Vets use education loans More than 1,200 veterans qualified for Veterans Administration education loans during the first three months of the new program established by the Vietnam-era Veterans Readjustment Act of 1974. Veterans attending school under the GI Bill who are in need of additional financial assistance to meet education expenses, are eligible to apply for bans up to $600 per academic year. The loans are in addition to the monthly GI Bill stipends. Food stamps buy seed, plants Low-income households participating in the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) food stamp program are reminded that food stamps can be used to purchase seeds and plants for use in home gardens to produce food for the household. The food-producing seeds and plants can only be purchased at stores authorized by USDA to participate in the food stamp program. The food stamp program regulations were amended in August 1973 to permit the purchase of seeds and plants for the participating family's personal use.

Our actions must follow us beyond the grave: with respect to them alone we cannot say that we shall carry nothing with us when we die, neither that we shall go naked out of the world.
