SE(Y. STIMS0N AGAINST END
 ALASKA ROAD
Bill Authorized Highway from Seattle, Reveal
 ed Today

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-Secre- tary of War Henry c. Stimson dis approved in letter made public today the proposed $50,000,, 1000 for a second international highway to Alaska, and took sharp exception to the misleading and inaccurate statements" contained in the bill, House Resolution 7284. which au- thorized the road.
 Alaska Delegate Anthony J. Di- mond was the sponsor of the bill.
 The measure was made public in letter which Stimson wrote to Rep. Cartwright, chairman of the House Public Roads Committee.
 Stimson said that the War De- partment could not approve the road route from Seattle to Alaska as an Army completion pilot road along the route which was chosen and said that misleading state ments were contained in the pre- amble of the bill.
 "The bill was drawn" he said, ito give the impression that a primitive road now is being built
 This is not true. The present road, when completed, will be grad ed and graveled, will be highway useful for many purposes.
 Meanwhile, pilot road will make it possible for traffic to be- gin moving soon, and at the same time, a large number of contrac- tors will undertake construction of a permanent road, working at many points simultaneously.
 These contractor operations al- ready have begun"

a top-flight bombardier - you merely must know how to use fig ures."
 Stumbling Block
 According to Col. Garland, simple grammar school arithmetic is a major stumbling block to many aviation cadets who hope to make the grade on the tough examina- tions' which all of the air forces bombardiers now must pass in order to become a member of the hand picked group which will enter this Advanced Flying School or one of the other great Army Air Forces bombardier schools.
 When a bombardier in a Flying Fortress misses target the mis- sion is a complete loss," the director of training says. Under combat con ditions the bombardier has less than a minute and often'no more than thirty seconds in which to re- calculate his data and get his bombs away at a target that may be ter or twenty thousand feet below Minor miscalculations ultiply tragically with higher attitudes. Al 10000 feet an error in calculation of airplane speed of only ten mile. an hour results in a miss of 364 feet. Bombs that miss the target don't even annoy the enemy"
 Invaluable Topics
 Algebra, geometry, trigonometry and physics are invaluable to g bombardier according to Col. Gar land Of major importance also is knowing how to read aerial photos charts and maps. Every bombardiei throughly studies maps and charts of his target and surrounding ter ritory before starting a mission Often landmarks must be memor- ized Slide rules and other rapid mathmetical computers are useo constantly.

Sealed Lips" Exciting Gangster Mystery; With
 Mountain Moonlight

For once a Hollywood director could afford to snap his fingers at roaring airplanes which ordinarily ruin many s"takes" of scenes when the sound recorders are running
 George Wagner was the lucky director and the scenes were those showing the airport in Universals Sealed Lips" which comes to the Capitol Theatre tonight.
 Right in the middle of the first scene, a big military bomber roared overhead. The sound recorder T wanted the scene shot over because, he said, his microphones picked up the noise of the plane overhead.
 Whats wrong with that?" Wag- gner asked. We're supposed to be at an airport, aren't we? and what's wrong about having few airplane noises in the background?"
 Consequently the microphones caught the sound of arriving and departing commercial planes, as well as sounds of big army planes soaring overhead,-and without hav- ing this added detail cost any money!

says that some flock owners who have
had difficulty in reducing pullorum
infection in their flocks solve this
problem by purchasing chicks from
flock owners whose birds have given
a negative test for several years.
Hatchery operators will find it a
good investment to pay flock owners
a reasonable premium over market
prices as an inducement to produce
top quality Matching eggs. These eggs
should not be over four days old and
should be kept in a temperature of
about SIS degrees Fahrenheit.
