Development Board Report Lists Activities

All activities of the Alaska De- velopment Board in the past two years, including successful oppo- sition to greatly increased ship ping rates, have been accomplish ed with the expenditure of only about half the funds appropriated for the boards use, it is revealed in 'h2 Boards biennial report sub mitled '0 the Legislature in Jun eau this week.
 Total expenditures of the Terri torial development agency up 10 January 15 were $59,l55.6S, the report shows. The 1945 Legisla- ture appropriated $l2O,OOO for the Alaska Development Board.
 The Boards report, prepared by General Manager George Sund- borg, lists accomplishments of the agency toward developing forest products industries, a creosoting plant, brick factories, cement plant, coalfields and other mining operations, fisheries enterprises, tourist resorts, a petroleum trans portation business, and numerous other industries and businesses.
 Specific results obtained in trouble shooting" for Alaska en- terprises which encountered diff culties during the biennium are detailed in the report. These serv- ices included such varied activi- ties as obtaining the removal of an embargo on a shipment of brick making machinery to an Anchor age factory, finding commercial outlets for salmon Leather" prod ucts, prevailing on the Coast Guard to stop in at one of the Aleutian Islands to pick up the seasons wool clip of lonely sheep ranch, arranging for the negotia- ted sale of an oil tanker to three World War II veterans, arranging Alaska distibutorships for various manufacturers, clearing the way for REC loans to worthy enterprises and assisting in the removal of a state sale tax improperly charged against Alaskans taking delivery of automobiles in Seattle.
 Most of the results of any de- velopment agency are long-term results" the board states in the in troduction to its report. But the accomplishments of the Alaska De- velopment Board, even in it's first biennium, have been substantial. It has been an action agency. It is justifying the vision of the Alas kans who called for its creation and the peoples representatives who created it. It is making real progress toward that more pros porous and stable Alaska for which we all strive"
 Work which the Board has done to assist several concerns contem- plating locating pulp mills in Alas ka is described in the report, which says in summing up progress on

QUESTION: How does the pres
ent day Jewish calendar number
the years?
ANSWER: The years are num-
bered from the year of creation in
the present day Jewish calendar.
Thus the current year is numbered
57O7 which indicates that we are
living in the five thousand-seven
hundred and seventh year since the
world was created. Since Hebrew
numbers are formed by using He
brew letters, this year is repre-
sented by using the three Hebrew
letters "Tof" (Which indicates the
number y, thus indicating that it
is the seven hundred and seventh
year of the fifth millenia.

l. QUESTION: Did the Jews al
ways number the years this way?
ANSWER: Oddly enough, they
didn't. It seems that this system
of numbering the years was used
only after the Talmud was COM
pleted, which is about the sixth
century of the Common Era:
QUESTION: What sOther sys-
TENS were employed in numbering
the years among Jews?
ANSWER: In the early books
of the Bible the years are num-
bered after the year of the Exodus
from Egypt ii. e. Exodus 1871,
Numbers 33:45, I Kings GIL In
later Biblical volumes the years
seemed to have been numbered
after the building OF Solomon's
Temple Re. g. II Chronicles SAID
Later, years were numbered after
the destruction of the Temple (e.
G.. Ezekiel 4O:-) It was Gust omary
to number the years according to
the years of rule of some foreign
monarch (e. G. Haggai IL, Daniel
7:1.) When Jews first began to
use the system of numbering the
year after the creation it was
quite common to find writer's re-
ferring to years by numbers in ac-
cordance with various systems

House Urged 10 Call
Hemisphere Farley
On Anfi-Red Laws
BY tho Assoeiofsd Press

| A plan for the House of Repre-
sentatives to take the lead in Or
ganizing system Of Western Hem
isphere laws as insurance" against
Communism was advanced today
by Representative Thomas, Repub-
lican, of New Jersey.
The chairman of the House Com
mittee on Un-American Activities
outlined his proposal In a letter
to Speaker Martin.
He suggested that Mr.. Martin
designate members of the House to
arrange for a conference of dele
gates from the legislative bodies of
all the countries in this hemisphere.
They would be invited to attend
for the purpose of discussing uni
form program of legislation and ex-
posure to cope with the Communist
danger" Mr.. Thomas said.
Il am aware that this suggestion
might have precedent-making i'm
plications," he said.
But when we consider that the
members of Congress are now in
countries throughout the world in
actual consultation with members Of
foreign governments on common
problems, the suggestion for SIM
liar consultation on the specific
problem of Communism is very
much In keeping with recent prac-
tice."
Mr.. Thomas said ut is high time
that we took direct and positive ac-
tion beyond mere exposure against
the threat of world Communism
He declared that such unified
legislative program as I have in
mind would provide hemisphere in
surance against what is happening
in Europe"

The Commissioners did not object
to these plans, but felt attendance
to this school should be expressly
limited to residents of Washington.
A number Of Municipal Court
judges have expressed enthusiasm
for the plan, promising to send
offenders to the school. Successful
completion of the course might cause
the judges to take a more lenient
view in sentencing the offenders,
it was indicated.
