PLANNING NEED FOR PROGRESS
 IN TERRITORY '
Heintzleman Sees Oppor- tunity for Cooper ation
 with National Program

Planned development to take ad- vantage of the. government program Fof restoring productivity and de- veloping untapped resources is one of the major steps in bringing pro- gress to Alaska, B. F. Heintzleman, Regional Forester, told the Juneau Chamber of Commerce in an ad- dress at the luncheon meeting of the Chamber this noon in the Ter minal Cafe.
 T am satisfied that unless we conform to this New Deal develop ment program we will not get the money needed for Alaska develop ment," MT. Heintzleman said Tt is a long term program and we should take advantage of it."
 The official paid compliment to the Territorial Legislature for pass ing legistlation setting up Plan ming Council, step, he declared, in the right direction, and one which can bring results. Every where in the States planned devel- opment is the order, he said. States and communities are directing their efforts toward a definite end in cooperation with the government program. In Alaska, he explained, the ma atural resources have not been depleted as they have Out side,' but by planning development of the vast resources, and as re- suit the Territory generally, defin- ite progress can be made.
 Touching on some of the things the Forest Service has in mind by way of cooperation with Territor- ial expansion, the Forester pointed to the plywood industry Alaska spruce is well adapted for this in- dustry, he said. in stressing that it was the purpose of the Forest Ser vice to help get wood-using plants into Alaska. Venetian blinds also could be manufactured here, he ex- plained as example of the possibili- ties.
 The tourist or recreational indus try has become one of the country's largest industries, the speaker said, Millions of dollars are being spent annually in promoting recreational areas to interest the travelling pub lie, and. here again, Alaska can profit, MT. Heintzleman said With matchless outdoor grandeur, the Territory can become a leader in the tourist business, he predicted As example of interesting travellers, he said consideration was being given to rebuilding a native Indian village just as it was before the ar rival of the white man. Built in some favorable spot in Southeast Alaska, he said he believed it would be a mecca for tourists as well as of interest to many Alaskans.
 A. E. Schoettler, Vocational Edu- cation Director, spoke briefly of his recent trip to the Westward, re- porting Palmer, Anchorage, and Seward making noticeable advance Houses and an apartment are to be built at Seward, he said, and An chorage is so crowded that 1t is difficult to get living quarters. He l forecast continued success for the Matapuska Colony, and noted ad- vancement since he was there last ] fall.

ARRIVING ON FIRST
 OCEAN TRIP OF YEAR
39 Pa asseng gers and 6l Members of Crew Aboard
 No Check on Victims

LAKEHURST, N. J., May 6. = The German Zeppelin Hindenburg burst into flames today as it prepared to alight at the Naval Air Station on it's first Atlantic crossing of the year. There were 39 pas- sengers and 61 crew members aboard.
 Sound of the explosion and flames brought shrieks from the spectators who had gath cred to see the big air ship complete it's 21st safe cross. ing between the United States and Germany. '
 Within few moments after the flash of flames there was nothing left but a twisted steel frame as it collapsed on the ground.
 No estimate of the injured or dead was immediately available but it was feared that all were lost.
 The Zeppelin had been de- layed several hours by strong headwinds over the Atlantic and a rainstorm shortly be- fore it was sighted here. It was kept aloft cruising above the air station more than an hour waiting for the weather to clear for the mooring.
 The ship was preparing to come down when suddenly it burst into flames. Spectators stood sobbing historically as Army trucks sped up with screaming sirens toward the blazing wreckage.
 The ship was in command of Capt. Max Pruss, former First Officer, and Capt. Ernst A. Lehman, who commanded the craft on the crossing last year, was aboard in an ad- visory capacity.

William Perry of New York is
one Of the class Of expert bridge
players who seldom win more than
one important championship. How
ever, the fact that he holds no ma
tional trophy does not detract In the
slightest degree from the excellence
Of his game, for this Is q lot that
he shares with thousands OF others
who play bridge, both in duplicate
and rubber form.
In todays hand, Perry had the
South cards. The manner In which
the contract eventually was reached
might be challenged by some, but
the interest In the hand lies in the
play by which Perry made all 10
tricks.
OF course, Perry's bid OF two
hearts was highly unconventional,
but he. like many other players,
