The bodies of all but Burkley had

Harry w Hagaford of Ketchikan,
Alaska, was the only survivor OF
the group of seven men who were
buried when the explosion occurred.
Hagaford, who suffered head and
leg injuries, was buried for six
hours. Mel Dennis and Emil Nelson,
who were working nearby, said the

Workmen Stabbed
In Strike Riot

CONTINUED from Page One)
A one-day work stoppage affecting
1900 workers at the Mack unit
and the Plymouth factory ended
temporarily Friday. A second walk
out on the day shift, however,
idled 4500 men at the Mack plant
and 5000 at Plymouth.
Crux of the controversy was the
disciplining by the company OF two
shop stewards of the striking CIO
United Automobile Workers. The
company charged the Stewards
were dismissed for sponsoring a
production showdown while the un-
ion said action against the stewards
resulted from their refusal to force
a speedup.
Rioting at the strike-bound S. j.
Bailey Furniture Co., Peru, was
a recurrence of an outbreak in
which police were forced Thurs
day to use tear gas to stop fight
between 150 furniture union pick
cts and independent employees try
ing to return to work.
In another attempt to crash the
picket line Friday, one man SUI
fered eight knife wounds and an
other received a six-inch cash in
the side.

BEGIN PROGRAM ON
ALASKA REFUGE

An active program for the
conservation of all forms of wild
life on the Aleutian Islands ma
tional wildlife refuge, largest
wildlife sanctuary in North Am
erica, is now underway following
10 years of intensive investlga-
lions on most of the 1000 is
ands of the 1,200-mile long area,
the Fish and Wildlife service
reported recently to Secretary OF
the Interior Harold L. Ickes.
The services 114-foot boat,
the Brown Bear, already has
been placed on a year-round
schedule to patrol the refuge,
while added protection will be
given by two resident patrolmen
assigned to the islands.
Principal species to be affec-
ted by the new program will be
the sea otter colony, largest OF
its kind known to be in exlS-
tence; petrels, fulmars, and
other colonies of North Pacific
seabirds using these major nest
ing grounds; and blue and
white foxes, which are collected
annually by commercial trap
pers.
Biggest problem for the wild
life agency was what to DO
about the fox industry. Blue
and white foxes formerly were
turned loose on many of the is
lands that had been leased for
this purpose. The foxes foraged
for food and habitually raided
various bird rookeries. On GER
tain islands, 60 per cent of the
foxes food consisted of birds
taken during the nesting per-
iod, service Investigations re-
vealed.
To provide greater benefits
both for the fox industry and
for the native birds and fur
animals, Secretary Ickes last
year approved regulations de-
signed to transfer some fox
farms to islands more suitable
for this industry and where de-
struction to birds would be
avoided. The blue fox industry
on the Aleutians yields annual
ly about 5000 pelts with a tota.
valuation of some 100000.
Fox farms are being trans
ferred to islands good for foz
farming but not necessary tx
the wildlife restoration program
and on islands where the ful
animals will not interfere with
other forms of wildlife.

Warned To Guard
Against Hoppers

Insured wheat growers were
warned recently by Leroy K
Smith, manager of the Federal
Crop Insurance corporation. to
use every available means to
| protect their crops from insect
outbreaks, especially grasshop-
perS, following congressional au-
thorization to the Bureau of En-
tomology and Plant Quarantine
of $2,225, 900 for control of de-
s%tructive pests.
Unless farmers whose crops
are insured exert reasonable eff
fort to prevent destruction by
insects, the value and protect
i've features of their contracts
will be lessened," Smith said.
In such cases farmers would
not derive the full benefits OF
| their crop insurance that would
otherwise be available.
Last year, the manager ex-
planned, some crop insurance
contract holders failed to real
ize the full value of their pro-
lection because they did not
exercise good farming practice
and neglected to spread poison
bait when its use would have
reduced insect destruction. Since
Congress has appropriated more
than $2,000,0 900 for the control
of certain insects there IS no
excuse for farmers not to pro-
tect their fields as best they
can by spreading bait,' the
manager added.
Crop insurance contracts pro-
tect wheat growers from loss
by insects but a stipulation pro-
vides that unless insured grow
ers make reasonable effort to
combat these insects, the con-
tract value will be discounted.
Surveys indicate a severe in
fectation of grasShoppers this
year in the eastern half of
North Dakota, several counties
in western Kansas and smaller
areas in Montana and Nebraska.
The insect control program is
conducted by the Bureau Of En-
tomology and Plant Quarantine
in cooperation with state ex-
tension services and state De-
partments of Agriculture. In the
grasshopper control work the
government supplies free bait
materials through the state or
CARNATIONS, but it is the res
possibility of farmers to make
use of this material. Informa-
ton on the program may be
obtained locally from county
agents or from state pest con-
troll officials.

Turkey and Canada each have
four candidates for graduation

likewise, will be placed on a
scientifically managed basis"
To increase the food supply
for foxes on the islands, the
service plans to introduce two
types of rodents, Jennings and
meadow mice, on these areas.
Biologists are also trying to de-
velop additional marine foods
by processing low-grade, coarse
fishes.
Only IA per cent of the Aleu-
tian Island chain will be re-
served exclusively for wildlife,
Salyer indicated.
Sea Offers Rare
Particular attention is being
given the sea otter herd, which
is now estimated to be the
largest in the world. Smaller
colonies are off the coast OF
California and off the Kurile
Islands, north of Japan. All the
colonies are 50 small, however,
that there is danger of exter-
mination of the species, espec-
tally if the animals are unduly
' disturbed.
"Sea offers do not like the
presence of man." explained Dr..
H. H. T. Jackson, in charge of
the services section of biolog-
ical surveys. land fox farms in
the sea otter areas may cause
the offers to migrate, perhaps
to some area not adequately
protected"
Has Large Bird Populations
The Aleutians refuge is so
large that considerable data on
the wildlife populations still re-
mains to be gathered. In a re-
cent trip through the refuge,
which extends southeastward of
the tip of Alaska, DR.. Ira N.
Gabrielson, director of the Fish
and Wildlife service, reported
seeing enormous colonies of Pa
cific fulmars and Pacific elders.
