will make studies of such resourc- eS with a view to expanding as widely as possible the fishing in- dustry of Alaska. It is hoped that it will be possible to build up the utilization to a much greater ex- tent than formerly of all the avail able fish resources of the Territory in addition to salmon. The Fish and Wildlife Service is cooperating with MT. Nick Bez in the operator of an experimental fish sap in Alaskan waters, including Bcv-ng Sea. It is understood that thee a.~ many varieties of edible fisa !n Alaskan waters which are no. nOu

 Schools: The Secretary oi t4e Nome School Board requested that Eskimo pupils be removed from the Territorial school and be urged to attend schools operated for the Natives. Eskimo pupils have every right to attend the Territorial school if they so desire and cannot be compelled to attend the schools operated by the Alaska Native Service if they do not wish to do so. Many Territorial schools throughout the Territory admit Natives freely and in some of them nearly all of the pupils arc N2- lives. I believe that it should be possible for the Nome School Board and the representative in Nome of the Alaska Native Service to cooperate in working out an ar rangement with regard to school attendance by Eskimo children

 Feb. 2, l947 Hon. Luther Dunbar,
 Mayor of Nome,
 Nome, Alaska.
 My dear Mayor Dunbar:
 The purpose of this letter is to keep you, and through you, the people of Nome, informed on the action taken and the progress made by this Department in Solv- ing the problems presented to MT. Skinner at a meeting held at Nome last August while l was iY Alaska. l regret that because of weather conditions, it was not possible for me to be present that meeting.
 Upon my return to Washington, l asked each Bureau and Division of the Department to report to me promptly on each of the problems presented that came within its particular functions. Most of the reports requested have now been received, and it is possible for me to inform you regarding action taken or proposed. Gold Mining: At the meeting in Nome there was some discus sion with regard to the Federal Government being in the gold mining business" The restrictions of the mining of gold which were in force during the war have beer ! relaxed so that it is now possible for gold mining to be resumed in Alaska in approximately it's for mer volume. This Department through the Geological Survey, the Bureau of Mines, and the Bureau of Land Management, is doing what it can with the limited funds available, to study mineral depos- its throughout the Territory and to assist in their development. We shall be glad to cooperate with persons in the Seward Peninsula area in the development of gold mining in that part of the Terri tory.
 Hospitals for Treatment of Tu- bercular Patients: The War De- partment has transferred to the Office of Indian Affairs of this Department it's buildings on Ja- ponsk Island, near Sitka, and plans are going forward for the operation by the Alaska Native Service of a hospital at that place,

FOREST LANDS

National forest lands in the United States, including Alaska would be thrown open for occu- pancy for purposes of residence, recreation, public convenience, ed ucation, industry, agriculture and commerce under a measure intro duced in the House this week by Delegate Bartlett.

We are working in cooperation with other inter eSted Federal and Territorial agen- cieS and with the Federal Board of disqualification on an overall hos pital program for Alaska which contemplateS a very substantial in crease in the number of hoSpita. beds to be available for the treat ment of tuberculosis.
 Reindeer: The Alaska Native Service Is continuing to make care ful investigation of the possibility of restoring the reindeer herds to something of their former num- bers. We realize the importance O. the reindeer to the native economy and every effort is being made to revive the interest of the Eskimos in the reindeer and to distribute the deer as widely as possible among the Eskimos. We know that there are many problems to be overcome in reeStabliShing the reindeer herds in Eskimo owner ship and will welcome suggestions from the people of northwestern Alaska for solving those problems.
 Aid 10 Veterans: The Alaska Ma tive Service is working in close CO., operation with the Veterans Ad- min.stration in informing Native veterans in Alaska of their rights and privileges under legislation enacted for their benefit. In re- SpOnSe to a request from Governor Gruening which had the support of this Department, the Veterans A d m niStration established an Alaskan Office with authority to handle veterans affairs in the Ter ritory. Both this Department and the Office of the Governor of Alaska are doing everything pos Sible to assist Alaskan veterans, both whites and natives, in meet ing their problems and in obtain ing everything to which they are entitled.
 Dredging and Other Harbor Inn provement Work: The dredging and other harbor improvement work at Nome is, as you know, a function of the War Department. However, this Department is very much interested in receiving infor- nation with regard to the needs for this kind of work in Alaska and we are glad to cooperate to the fullest extent in presenting those needs to the Engineer Corps of the War Department for inclu- sion in the Rivers and HarborS Bill.
 Road Construction: The Alaska Road Commission has long range program for new construc- ton which it will follow as rapid ly as funds can be secured. In con- sidering the Interior Department Appropriation Bill for the current fiscal year, the Congress indicated that it thought the Territory should contribute twenty-five per cent to the cost of new road con- Communication-Krug-2 ...... .... struction in Alaska.

among the first found. That of her
mother, Mrs. Martha Helen Bry-
an Of indianapolis, Ind, and Nor
folk, Va, was not Immediately
identified.
DR.. Ludwig Lederer, Airline
physician, one Of the earliest ar
rivals at the scene, estimated that
"abcut 20" of the bodies had es-
capped the fire and the tearing
force of the crash to such al ex-
tent that they could be readily
Identified. He said about five were
SO charred he doubted that they
could ever be named. Other work
ers' estimates Of the number mu-
tilated beyond recognition ran
higher.
The crash scene itself is SO iso-
lated and SO rough that rescue
crews said a three-mile carry by
stretcher-bearers on foot might be
necessary to bring the bodies out.
First arrivals reached the spot
by climbing up the mountain
which the plane hit near its crest.
That route, however, is 50 rugged
that rescue crews are considering
a plan to carry the bodies to the
top OF the ridge, 800 or 400 yards
away, and then carry them on
foot or by horse another two and
a half to three miles down the
Georgia = to Maine Appalachian
trail for mixers which runs along
the crest.
At the end Of mat carry, jeps
can met the bearers and take
over their grim burdens. Not even
the nimble wartime vehicles can
traverse the last two and a half
to three miles ven on the trail.
The shorter uphill route is per-
haps less than two miles from a
point that can be reached by jeep
from this rescue headquarters set
up by the Red Cross. But the first
half to three-quarters Of a mile
is marshland and the rest is an
uphill grind through dense brush,
and over ravines, with no vestige
Of trail.
The whole rescue operation has
been severely hampered by steady
rain that has soaked searchers
and made the rough footing still
more treacherous.
Rescue crewmen said 1t must
have been raining heavily when
the big ship smashed into the
mountain. The immediate area is
burned clear by fire from the bro
ken fuel tanks, but the blaze did
not spread over much Of the noun
tainside, indicating that the trees
and brush were wet.
The charred clearing Is visible
from a mile or 50 away On the
other side of a valley, but is lost
to sight as soon as searchers,
heading toward it, drop below the
line Of the dense growth surround
ing It.
The granite outcrop on which
the afrliner disintegrated Is the
only one seen for miles around.

CHAPEL HILL, June 14-Kenneth Ross has a job at
the University of North Carolina that, while musical to
the ears of a multitude, is, nevertheless, one consisting of

IldIu WOIh.
At 6 O'Clock each evening a
increasing number of visitors stop
by the impressive 172 1-2-foot
structure on the south campus.
They climb the flight Of stairs to
the second floor to watch Kenneth
Ross, 22-year-old University junior
at the odd-looking keyboard Of
levers.
The average spectator agrees
that Ross needs a lot Of muscle,
talent, and sweat for his task. To
them his playing seems like a
mild miracle of the bells"
But to Ross, who holds the am
bilious title of master ringer"
playing the bells is just a lot OF
fun. At the same time 1t is good
experience that places him an.
other step along the road to his
secret ambition. He has always
wanted to play the carlton in the
Box Singing Tower, Lake Wales.
Florida.
Oddly enough Kenneth Ross is
not a music major. SIN only
mirroring in music" he. explains.
I'm enrolled in pre-law."
A native Of Greensboro, Ross
came first to the University in
1912. William L. Benton of Nam
let, then the Bell Towers master
ringer, taught him the intricate
lever technique that advanced him
from an apprentice to assistant
ringer. This meant he played the
chimes five times each month. In
June, 1913, Ross left Chapel Hill
to spend two and one-half year
in The Army, serving in the ETC.
He returned in January of last
year, continued to serve as as
sistant until Chapel Hills Monte
Howell, Jr., graduated from the
head position. He has been master
ringer ever since, playing "a times
each month.

are visible at night. Bell-man
Ross is quite happy over the fact
that this feature of the tower is
not dependent upon the master
ringer.
Each evening between 6 and 7
o'clock Ross begins his musical
interlude by using English change
ringing learned from Anton Brees,
reowned carilloneur at the Bck
Singing Tower, and at Duke
Chapel Tower, in Durham.
His repertoire consists mainly
of familiar hymns, German folk
songs, several Stephen Foster
melodies, usually climaxed by the
University Alma Mater. Ross
does his own transposing OF the
tunes for the chimes.
Visitors to the tower during the
concerts offer varied requests,
everything from "Chopsticks" to
'La Cucaracha," the latter being
one Of Ross favorites. One Of the
most oft-repeated of songs is 1.-The
Bells of st. Mary's."
OF all songs he has played Ross
admits he enjoyed one, a certain
Saturday last year "best of ALL"
1t was November %, 1946. Multi
tudes of ~ecstatic fans were leav-
ing Kenan stadium. Ross left the
crowd early and rushed to his key
board. Quickly, but meticulously,
he began to push the handles
down. Out over the smoke = blue
hills the chime-song rang:
Happy days Arc here again. >.
Here now the long-awaited had
come: the University of North
Carolina had 'Hbeat Dock" for the
first time in six long football
years.
"Ihat day. says Ross, Il en-
joyed playing the chimes most OF
all. Next I played Hark, the
Sound over and over again"
Another important occasion for
the bell-man was Easter Sunday
Of this year. Ross played the
chimes at 6:45 a. m. the resonant
tones adding effectively to the
| sunrise services in the Forest
Theater.
II even received a ian letter
once" Ross admits. "A man
thanked me for joining the special
sunrise THANKSGIVING services
back in 1912"
Each evening the plangent bell
notes that Kenneth Ross finds SO
much fun" presenting are adding
more beauty and pleasure to the
spring twi]ights. Five floors OF the
Bell Tower are open to sight-seers
interested in a bird's-eye view Of
the surrounding hills during these
| daiIy concerts.
