FORMER DOG MUSHER NOW
 AIRPORT HEAD

l Pan American AirWays' old timer Fred Milligan, one-time operator of a competitive dog team. mail route in Alaska this month vast appointed Airpor Traffic Manager at Seattle for the company's Alaska service.
 Forced into the aviation busi- ness 13 years ago when Pacific International Airways outbid his dogteam mail contract Milligan swallowed his pride and joined forces with his competitors, and has been with them ever since.
 When I saw those airpanes flying over my dog trails, knew it was the end Of the dogteam in Alaska said Miligan. "Why com pete with an outfit that covered a distance in three hours that took me 20 days by dogteam?"
 
 When Pan American took over the subsidiary in 1892, Miligan went right along with them, and IS now one of the eight remain ing oldtime Alaskans still with the Sector. Sitting in his Seattle office behind desk scattered with papers Milligan might not be recognized by his Alaskan friends who knew him when he sledded over the frozen tundra wrapped in parka and mukluks. carrying the U. s. mail to remote Arctic towns. A colorful and well-known Alaskan figure and an associate of such famous Alas kans as Ben Eilson, Joe Crosson and Joe Barrows, Milligan first visited Alaska in 1905 after spending most of his early life at sea. A seasoned world travel CT, he found the magic of the South Seas and Pago Pago no match for the spell of the Yukon.
 Out of the tundra and snow banks, Milligan carved dog trail, first along the Yukon from Ruby to Koltag in 1911, then gradually branching out to carry more mail contracts. When his competitors took over the route, Milligan was invaluable in guid- ing the pilots over the dogtrail routes he had made in this deso- late Arctic country.
 Starting out as flight mechanic, Milligan became Pan Americans airport manager in Fairbanks in 1886 before his transfer to Seattle four years later. When asked whether he missed the PAA pio- neering days of Alaska, Milligan replied, q should say not! There's too much work to be done for me to start reminiscing!"

today. although Democrats eener-

Calling on Germany and Japan to
surrender before the consequences
to them became more severe, Gov.
Dewey predicted that the Allied

Aviation Editor, The star.

A dozen petitioners for certificates
to fly commercial air routes across
the North Atlantic will submit sup
porting exhibits to the Civil Aero
nautics Board tomorrow 1T Z pre-
hearing conference.
The scramble to get into the in
ternational field extends to al the
oceans and includes established air
carriers already ranging the globe
for the Air Transport Command
along with promoters who have
little more than shoe-string to
help mark route on map.
Despite the fact that no CAB
decision can be expected for almost
. year, 80 many applicants have
demanded the right to compete for
overseas trafnc that they have been
divided in regional groups for hear
ings. North Atlantic petitioners will
be heard October Is, and South

ter to present exhibits on Wednes-

Question Of Trading Rights.
With personnel ana equipment al

there can be little doubt Of the
technical ability of many of the

question of trading rights for these

1t seems certain that Congress

Meanwhile, Pan American spokes-
