ALASKkR0ADC0M. LOSES EQUIPMENT
 IN FOREST FIRE

A large forest fire is reported as doing considerable damage during the past week on the Kenai Penin- sula according to a report received here today from U. s. Fish and Wildlife Agent Dan Ralston at Sew ard. He reported that the fire has completely destroyed all of the heavy equipment of the Alaska Road Com- mission which was being used for the construction of a new road from Cooper Landing to Kenai and Homer.
 Ralston said the wind suddenly changed direction and swept the fire toward the equipment before road commission crews could save it. The fire hit their campsite on the road which has now reached to a place between Hidden Lake and Ski lak Lake The damage was not re- ported to the Juneau headquarters of the road commission because both top ARC executives are in Anchor age at present.
 The blaze has not yet touched National Forest regions in the Kenai Peninsula. It is apparently ad- vancing unchecked across the penin- sula toward Cook Inlet.
