 the permittee is allowed a period considered sufficient to -amortize his investment. As mentioned a. bove. small resort developments valued at $5,O0O or less will be authorized by this type of permit. To avoid the "tar paper shack" type of construction, simple des- criptions of plans of the proposed development, particularly the ex- terior finish and appearance, must be submitted alon with the appli- cation.
 A few outstanding resort sites on the National Forests of Alaska are being tentatively held for large developments and a special effort is being made to interest large tourist industry concerns in their development. With these excep- tions. small resorts suitable Tn type for the particular locality and purpose and capable of ex- be approved for any location There is no objection to a home site permittee operating a resort on the permit area providing he can meet the requirements of the Homesite Law as to residence and other features. However. homesites are only made available in local ities adjacent to existing settle ments, or localities which offer opportunities for the development of new community centers.
 Terminable permits are obtain able for fur farm use The avail able sites include the entire area of suitable islands of not more than 1000 acres, and tracts of land on larger islands or on the mainland not in excess of 80 acres. Fur Farm permittees are granted exclusive use and occupancy of the land for the purpose of rais- ing definitely designated fur-bear- ing animals. Annual rentals are $12.50 and $25.0O for entire is- lands, and from $500 to $25.OO for blocked-ouh tracts.

BELIEVES NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN FISHING
 WILL SOLVE PROBLEM

SEATTLE+Possible solution of one of the most serious problems in Alaska's fifty million dollar sal mon canning industry, the uncer tainty and shortness of the fish ing season, was foreseen today by Dr. Vernon Mund, temporary vice chairman of the 18th Regional War Labor Board, upon his re- turn from a six weeks study of Alaska's major industry as special WLB representative
 Two factors will bring about this solution, Dr. Mund believes, One Is conservation methods which are now being employed to allow enough fish to go up the rivers each year to spawn and thus pre- vent the rivers from running out, as some already have. The other is the development of new types of fishing.
 "In many areas in Alaska they are now catching and freezing many other types of fish, such as red snapper, sole, cod, claims and crabs, which extends the season for both labor and employers" Dr. Mund commented. "This is not possible in all areas. but in Cor dova, for example, they are catch ing and canning crabs up until Christmas time.'
 "These developments have tra- mendous economic importance for the Territory when you consider that in most areas the fishing season has extended only 30 or 35 days out of the year. and that up in the Bristol Bay area where they catch the famous Bristol Bay "reds," the season now lasts only 21 days,p he declared.
 At the present time. 80 per cent of the Alaska salmon pack Is going to the armed forces, Dr. Mund said
 Dr. Mund was sent to Alaska by Dr. George B. Noble, chairman of the 18th Regional w. L. 5. to get first hand information from fishermen, and union and employer representatives on problems in the fishing industry for use as basis in deciding dispute cases now pending before the Board. Dr Mund visited Wrangell, Peters, burg, Ketchikan, Anchorage, Ju- neau, Cordova and Southeastern Alaska and held hearings on two WLB cases in the Copper River district. He returned enthusiastic about the economic possibilities of ing industry, but in mining, air travel to the Far East, and in in- dustrial development which he feels will increase with the end of
 the war and provide many oppor- tunities for fuller use of the Ter ritory's labor resources.

NURSE
BY MARY BEARD
Written for NEA Service

In the home where there is no
bedroom on the first floor, it
IS sometimes necessary to carry
convalescent patient up and
down stairs. This should be done
in such way that he may not
be injured and that he may feet
perfectly secure. The task should
also be made as easy as possible
for those who do the carrying.
A chair stretcher may be i'm
provised from a strong, we'll
braced dining room or kitchen
chair. Place the chair beside the
patients bed and help him into
it. Two strong people may then
lift the chair by grasping the
legs just below the seat. II it is
tipped back a little, the patient
will feel less apprehensive and
can relax comfortably while he
is carried down the stairs. If
desired, a third person may walk
behind and steady the back of
the chair.
THREE METHODS
If the stairs are too narrow to
Permit three people to 60 down
side by side, another arrange
ment will permit them to 90
single file. One person may
stand behind the chair and grasp
the outer spokes back about
halfway down, tipping the chair
slightly backward. The second
person may stand in front of the
chair and, flexing the knees,
may grasp the front legs to lift.
When the head of the stairs is
reached, the chair may be rested
on the floor while the front
bearer turns around so that he
can 60 down stairs forward. BY
stepping down a step or two he
can reach back and grasp the
chair legs, holding the chair be-
hind him. The same procedure
may be used to carry the patient
upstairs.
The old-fashioned saddle made
by two persons grasping each
others wrists, Is another way to
cnrry a patient up and down
stairs If he is strong enough to
hold himself without support to
his back.
The ordinary canvas a W q
chair may also be used convent
emily as stretcher for a con-
valescent patient.

It's not apparent when you UNI

but one of the fastest mechanical
operations known is involved in
wrapping the gum, the Package

machine is a one and half
pound steel tumble wheel, three
inches long that stops and starts
1900 times a minute. The wheel
contains four equidistant slots

AT other tables South went 20
seven diamonds over six spades,
and that, too, was doubled. West
had a choice of three openings;
naturally the spade lead could
not be very good against a seven
bid. Should he lead the ace of
clubs or king of hearts? Obvi-
oiusly South had bid seven dia-
monds as a sacrifice. II the king
OF hearts was opened, North and
South made seven diamonds
doubled. The ace of clubs was

WASHINGTON. D. C.-Most
sensational parts of the stimuli

To the Americans the new

BY whatever name il is called,
this new plane could not have
more impact on world civiliza-

NOT high-test gasoline. If the
jet engine or gas turbine, as it is

developed to the point where it
is more efficient engine, think
what that means TO not only the

industry. The jet plane will not

JET TURBINE AGE AHEAD
The jet plane is an anomaly,
a paradox in that it may cause
the oil refining business to go
back to the coal oil age-in or
der to keep up with the jet tur-
bine age that lies ahead.
To 60 ahead. to get more pow
er and more speed, the engineers
now 60 backward to a principle
first observed in 1871, according
to scientists, but unused for all
of $50 years, until r. A. F. Cap
tain, now Air Commodore Frank
Whittle, first succeeded in putting
a jet engine on an airplane and
making it fly. The whole story
is utterly fantastic.
Air Force generals and avia-
ton engineers admit frankly
they don't know where the gas
turbine principle will lead. They
believe the airplane itself is
here to stay, but whether the
gasoline-powered internal COM
buStion engine airplane is head
ed for obsolescence is osmethin2
they cannot tell you. They wish
they knew. If they knew, they
could plan for it better. Further
development of the "Swoosh"
plane, as it has been nicknamed,
may come exceedingly fast. II
the principle is developed as rap
idly as some enthusiasts predict,
the end of the war may see ev-
cry air force, nearly every air
plane now in combat, fit for
nothing more than the scrap
heap.
P-59 NOW OUTMODED
The first experimental models
of the jet plane made in this
country - the P-59's produced
by Bell Aircraft with General
Electric turbines-are now rele-
gated to the status of mere train
ers. Only year and half old,
these P-59s are now entirely
outclassed by the new P-80.
What this P-8O will do in
speed, climb, range and economy
Of operation, the Army Air
Forces is now revealig only in
general terms, but they are all
slsperlatives. The jet engine
weighs only half as much as a
gasoline engine of similar pow
err. The jet engine Is simplicity
itself. 1t can be replaced in Is
minutes, as compared with the
eight or nine hours required TO
install a gasoline engine. Flying
itself has been simplified, with
fewer instruments and fewer
controls. And so on.
Fortunes may be made - and
some fortunes may be lost-on
the further development of the
jet plane. Bell, G.. E., General
Motors, Allison, l. k h d,
North American are in. Patent
rights and royalties for postwar
commercial applications m y
make an interesting struggle
And what this strange coal oil
turbine will do il it can be har-
messed to railroad locomotives

rent is something for this brave
