Weather Services
 Progressed Here

With five new airway weather stations established in the past two years the Nome division of the U. S. Weather Bureau has made outstanding progress in this field. The new stations are Deer ing, Council, Egavik, Film and Pilgrim Springs and are supplied with modern meteorological in- struments.
 This makes a total of IS paid observers in the Nome section, covering the country over west ern Alaska between Marshall and Pt. Barrow as far east as Ruby.
 The stations listed at present in addition to the above are: Nu- lato, Kaltag, Unalakleet, Wales (Tin City,, Kotzebue, Candle, Solomon, Golovin and Teller. Other reports on airway weather conditions are available from sta- tions at Shishmaref, Selawik, Taylor, Shungnak, Marshall, St. Michael, White Mountain, Bluff and Hamilton on request.
 In addition to the airway work regular climatological stations have been established for obser- wing weather, temperature and precipitation conditions at King Island, Diomede Island, Gambell, Deering and Council.
 With this very rapid progress the Nome airway district has grown to one of the largest sub- districts of the whole system. In

 RETURNABLE DECEMBER l5
tBy The Associated Press,

By The Associated Press,
 WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 23, Calls for bids for the carrying of mail by airplanes between Fair banks and Juneau by way of Whitehorse, Yukon Territory, were ssued today by the Postoffice de- partment. The tenders must be submitted not later than Dec ember 18th, and operation of the service, which will be weekly, must begin not later than six months after the awarding of the contract.
 To Connect With Steamships
 Under the present plan of the Post Office Department, the on- ce a week, round-trip schedules will connect at Juneau with mali passenger steamships operating be tween Juneau and Seattle. The route will be the first leg of a trunk airmail line between Fair banks and the States. Within year or two. postal authorities said, an airmail service from some point in the states will be established to connect either at
 
 Juneau or Whitehorse with the Juneau Fairbanks service.
 Connect With Nome
 With the inauguration of the Fairbanks-Juneau airmail, Nome will be on a weekly schedule to receive mail thru from Juneau the year-round. As it is now, on- ly during the winter does Nome receive really scheduled mail service. including first and sec- ond class mail matter. During the summer, only first class letter mail is carried by plane, and that only to and from Fairbanks.
 Two Airmail Routes
 Under the calls for bids issued tenders are requested for two air mail routes. These routes are:
 1-Fairbanks to Whitehorse, 492 miles.
 2Juneau to Whitehorse, 168 miles.
