Officer Tells of Progress on Alcan Highway

Lieut.. Richard l.. Neu- berger, aide to Brig. Gen. James A. O'Connor of the Northwest Service Con- mand, told members of the Juneau Chamber of Com- merce at a recent noon luncheon that Gen. O'Con- nor has his staff hope to visit Juneau in the near future and talk over the | problems of the new Alcan Highway relative to how they affect Southeast AL aska.
 Lieut.. Neuberger, public Relations Officer, also told . members that Gen. O'Con- nor has extended an inVit- ation to any Southeast AL askan 10 visit with him and his staff in White horse.
 Remarkable Achievement
 Neuberger, well known writer and a member of Oregon's State Legislature touched on the early disa- l greement concerning the route of the new highway 1 which was formally open ed on November 20, but said that he didn't believe that any disagreement eX- i5ted when it came to con sidering the remarkable achievement reached by Army engineers and civil ian Workmen in putting the l,600-mile road thru in 6 months, many months ahead of schedule.
 He stressed one point - This is not a finished high way" he said. Neuberger pointed out that compared . to roads in the States, the new Alcan Highway is by . no means completed. In many places it provides only for one-Way traffic. Other sections will not be open to traffic during the thaWing season.
 But Very Useful But the road can be us- ed" he added, ito move thousands of tons of equip ment and supplies to AL aska from Central Can ada beginning tentatively on November 20 and eX- tending through the win ter. 1
 Eventually, he said, the highway will be further developed and will have acess roads to the coastal communities. He described the present route from Dawson Creek to White horse as the beginning of a network.
 Building Bridge
 Paying tribute to the men who built the road, 1 Neuberger told of one Ne gro regiment pushing bridge across a wide river in A. hours, driving piles and laying blanks so that tWO-and-a-half- ton trucks were able to cross. The men worked with little equipment and under the difficulties of long supply lines in pushing the high way across four or five mountain ranges, through thick forests, around and over muskeg.

In Ordinary English:

Translated by an expert this $ what actually aap- pened. A white collar worker in he front office sent
 note to the superintendent, who gave it to the fore man. The later called in his assistant mechanic to talk over what written in the note.
 The foreman said production would have to speed ed up and instructed the piece workers to grind the valves faster But the piece workers didn't like the idea and the superintendent had to argue with them
 Finally, the piece workers realized they wrong and felt ashamed of themselves They agreed to work harder because this was war and Uncle Sam nee&eU the valves for his army

OPA Men Explain Rent Rules

FAIRBANKS, Nov. 20 - In queston-and-anSWer dalog put on over Station FKAR Steve McCutcheon, district director of the Office of Price Administration and Inspector Everett Hepp of his office, explained the meaning of the OPAs rent control In the course of the program, Hepp said:
 "The Territory of Alaska designated defense rental area on May 26th The 60-day waiting period thereafter expired long ago. Leon Henderson has seouenty within the last few weeks issued order to the effect that rent control shall become legally effective in Alaska on November 1st.
 Upon that date all rents of dwelling facilities must % back to the level in effect last March 1st.
 From Houses to Shanties
 McCutcheon: "'The coVerage IS extremely broad commercial as well residential structures. It nclud es houses, apartments rooming houses and individual rooms whether in private homes in hotels. It does not matter whether such rooms rented to tranSents by the day or to permanent tenants by the week or month In fact, the coVerage of the law extends to every place where people choose 10 live raers boats shantias or packing cases.
 Happ: Let ne explain how tae tenant will know what s the maximum rent he can be charged. The regulation requires that landlords file a registration statement showing the rent charged on March lst He files three copies of this statement for each dwelling unit. One copy is kept by the OPA, one goes to the landlord and 10 the tenant In this way, the ten- ant can be sure he is not paying excessive rent.
 McCutcheon: Has the date for registration in AL aska been set?
