FOOD PRICES UP 43 PERCENT FOR
 3-YEAR PERIOD

Retail food prices in Alaska ad- vanced approximately 43 per cent between July, l944, and September, l947, according to the Monthly Price Survey released by the Territorial Department of Labor today.
 Increases were cratic among the seven cities surveyed, although the upward trend continued in all dis tricts of Alaska. Increases during the four month period, June to Sep- tember, ranged from per cent ln Fairbanks to 10 per cent in An chorage.
 If the present rate of increase continues, food prices in Alaska will be double the wartime base (July '44) by June. 1948.
 A special survey of five basic food items (bread, fresh milk, meat, but ter, eggs was made in September. These five basic food items show an average increase of 55 per cent over July, 1944, and show an increase of 24 per cent between June and Sep tember, 1947. A comparison With Seattle prices on May 5, l947 shows the five basic items in Alaska priced almost 30 per cent above Seattle retail prices. The comparative sur vey for these five items shows Ju- neau 18.5 per cent, Anchorage 33.5 per cent, and Fairbanks 35.6 per cent above Seattle.
 It is interesting to note that food costs in Seattle on May 15, 1947, were approximately the same as AL aska costs three years prior.
 Information is based on monthly surveys made by the departmnt in Ketcilikan, Sitka, Juneau, Seward, Kodiak, Anchorage and Fairbanks Information regarding prices Out side, or prior to June, 1947, is ob- tained from the U. s. Bureau oe Labor Statistics.

Smoke, then Flames Seen Before Crash h-Remdins
 Are MutiIated

BRYCE CANYON, Utah, Oct 25. -R-Six teams of experts probed carefully today through charred wreckage of United Air Lines DC-6 plane in an effort to de- termine the cause of the crash which yesterday took the lives of 52 persons.
