DOUG MekENzIE GETS SPECIAL TRlp,T. 0FH.

Doug Mckenzie, District Traffic Manager for Pan American, was glad to put in some extra time on the job when his recent va cation to the States was extsnded to include trip to the Hawaiian Islands on company business.
 Mckenzie was visiting with his uncle in Oakland, California, when PA headquarters in San Fran cisco offered him an opportunity to make a Administration tour over the Hawaiian route
 He flew from San Francisco to Los Angeles and to the islands particularly enjoying the sleeper cite seats which are a new fea- ture of PAAs trans-Pacific ser vice.
 He spent six days in the Islands, summing on the beach at OWahu, taking in all the tourist attractions and squeezing in few visits to the PAA office at Honolulu.
 He also flew to the island of Kaul, about 134 miles from Owahu, via one of the many inter-island flying taxi services
 Mckenzie was a guest in the palatial home of the manager of the Hawaiian Cannery, whom he met in Alaska when the latter was hunting big game. His home is on one of the great pineapple i plantations and when a tidal wave destroyed his prize trophy, an Alaskan grizzley, he returned last fall to get another one. 1 Mckenzie was taken on com plete tour of the Garden Island, . so-called because of it's beauty and abundant foliage and flowers.
 He reports that he had a won derful time on his trip. and while in Honolulu met Rita Travis, form erly PAA Traffic Manager at Nome.

 FROM SITkA
Special Correspondence)

SITKA. Alaska, Oct. 1.-The faint hope that prompted the send ing of two City representatives to confer with Alaska's Governor in Juneau last weekend. on the fi- nancial crisis in the City Schools proved unfounded. City Clerk Frank Calvin and Superintendent of Schools T. J. Cole returned by plane Saturday afternoon with a discouraging report after meeting with the Governor, Attorney Gen. eral Ralph Rivers and Commis- sione of Education pr. Ryan.
 They learned that no Territorial money could be expected before November and possibly not then; that the school could borrow up to s5,000 from the bank; that no Federal aid should be expected, in spite of the fact that the present school crisis is attributable to ths actions of a Government bureau, that the City would be within ths law in barring all out of town pu- pills from City schools.
 The most cogent recommenda- tion-that all out of town pupils be excluded-thus cutting down en- rollment by 47 percsnt-would be ineffective this year as the six additional teachers made neces- sary by the increased enrolment are on contract for the full year
 The borrowing of S5000 would be a mere stop-gap with no inn mediate means Of paying the loan. And should the City schools ex- clude out of town students. the Territory would be forced to pro- vide schools for them as every child in the Territory is entitled 10 an education.
 After studying the City Ordin- ance providing for sales and ser vice tax to provide funds for edu- cational and public health purposes, Attorney Ralph Rivers praised the City officials fer the tremendous amount of thought and effort in vclved. However, he stated that the section covering liquor sales was strictly illegal being discrim- atory and contrary to the law which prohibits municipality from assessing a specific tax on liquor.
 The Governor stated that he was opposed to all forms of sales tax cut considered that the drastic circumstances justified drastic mea- sures and commended Sitkans for their direct action in helping themselves out of a difficult situa- ton.
 Some definite and final action is expected to be taken by the City Council on Tuesday evening when a Council meeting will be held The public is urged to attend the meeting as the solution is the con- cern. of the entire community.
 Mayor Harry Hagen, after be- ing granted a 30-day leave of ab- sence by the City Council, left last weekend on vacation trip tc Seattle and vicinity. During the Mayors absence, Dr. w. c. Char teris will be acting mayor by un- animous vote of the Councilmen.

When the local held its first
annual dance at the Amalgamated
Ballroom, 333 S. Ashland av., on
Oct. rs, there was a, great deal
to celebrate.
In April 1916, handful of
workers at Elkay Mfg. Co, Mark
stone and several other shops, pc
titioned the national UE for a
charter. When the charter was
granted, Local 1119 was estab-
lished. With less than 200 mem
bers, the local set out to become
vital force in the labor move
ment of Chicago.
SUBSTANTIAL economic gains
were won by the locals member
ship in contract negotiations with
the companies. The 1917 and Is
cent patterns were achieved in
almost every shop under contract
with Local 1119.
Negro and white members fought
side by side on the picket lines
for unity of the union.
The membership of the local
rose swiftly to more than 1000
workers, organized in Is electrical
shops.
SINCE the passage of the Taft
Hartley Law, Local 1119 has or
ganized two plants = without re-
course to the TIL labor board.
These plants are M. Linkman
Corp, and Trico Stamping Co.
1t was expected that several
hundred members of the local
would be participating this week
in community precinct work for
the Nov. 4 judicial elections.
And at the Brunswick Radio
Corp, Local 11l9 has won a sew
enth paid NATURALIZATION Day,
Nov. 4. In the election ma
jority of Brunswick workers will

contribution to a more progressive

All AirIines Ordered 10 Use
Ground Warning Device
BY the Associated Press

The Civil Aeronautics Board yes
terday ordered all aircraft operating
in scheduled passenger service to
begin using. by February Is, elec-
tronic devices to show their precise
distance from the ground.
This order grew out OF the in
vestigation OF the crash of a Penn
sylvania Central Airlines plane into
a cloud-covered mountain near
Leesburg, Va, June 13, killing SO
persons.
The type OF device being required
is known as an absolute terrain
indicator 1t may be one of several
types. One of the most publicized
is the Hughes radar warning de-
vice developed from a tail warning
radar installation used in fighter
planes to tell the pilot when an air.
craft approached from his rear.
The CAB order requires that the
instrument warn the pilot when the
aircraft comes within 1000 feet
and again at 1000 feet of the
ground, and also that it can be set
to give warnings at any selected
altitude between 800 and 500 feet.

pected to be relatively short lived,
the years 1947 and 1s48 representing
the peak If demand from the
United States the report said.
The report calls wheat "by far the
most important item of food pro-
duction in relation to foreign
needs" both In terms of volume and
cost, explaining "it is the cheapest
source Of calories needed to meet
basic food deficiencies. Current pro-
duction Of 1,400, ,000. 900 bushels, it is
pointed out, Is far in excess of
domestic needs, but the weather,
which has cut down the corn crop,
has imposed new demands on the
wheat supply.
From the standpoint of world
food needs in 1947-48 it would be
desirable for the United States to
export much more wheat than the
194e-47 total Of roughly 400, 1000 900
bushels" 1t continues. A However,
our ability to increase-wheat exports
above this level will depend to a
considerable extent op our ability
to hold wheat feeding of livestock
below the levels that now seem prob
able"
Conservation Advocated.
In the absence of legislative re-
strictions, the report advocates such
conservation measures as have been
adopted under the administration
food saving program. 1t said con-
sideration should be given also to
exporting other foods, particularly
those in long supply" to supplement
wheat shipments.
To improve the situation with re-
gard to fertilizer. the report said
that efforts should be directed to-
ward increasing production of nitro.
gen by employing unusued capacity
in Europe and elsewhere. Both coal
and industrial equipment shipments
for fertilizer production should be
given high priority" 1t stressed"
Considering transportation and
cost, it appears desirable to export
'niotrogen for increased food pro-
duction abroad rather than to con-
tinue to ship the much greater
tonnages of equivalent food from
the United States" it said. Rela-
lively small quantities of nitrogen
now are being exported.
Equipment Also Needed.
The industrial equipment situa-
tion, the report points out, is tied
in directly with the steel shortage.
Many badly-needed items are
readily available for export" and
will have little or no effect on our
domestic economy" On the other
hand, there is conflict of demand
between the United States and
Europe for things like railroad cars
to handle coal. The report stresses
that remedying machinery short
ages abroad will cut down on the
requirements there for other ex-
ports which machine deficiencies
make necessary.

provide the basis for getting the
world economy off dead-center and
creating the circumstances under
which all areas of the world may be
fully productive and wisely exchang-
ing their products with each other.
Effectively geared to this specific
objective, it will pay for itself in
assuring us an opportunity to i'm
port the things we urgently need
from others in order to develop and
conserve our own natural wealth
and to maintain our standards of
living.
Capable of Meeting Needs.
This review of our resources posi-
ton shows that, from the standpoint
of preserving both the national Sc
curity and our standard of living,
our economy in general is physically
capable of providing the resource re-
quirements of a considerable pro-
gram of foreign aid. 1t points out
however, that certain shortages re-
sulting from our own current high
levels of consumption will be intensi-
fed.
These shortages, particularly is
such essential commodities as wheat,
steel, coal, nitrogen fertilizer and
certain items of industrial equip
ment, present the immediate prob
lens Of supply and consequent eco
nomic repercussions to be faced dur
ing the next year. Upon our in
telligent and prompt handling of
them will depend our own continued
well-being as we'll as the effective
ness of the foreign aid program.
To a considerable extent. the sup
ply impacts can be minimized by
establishing effective procedures for
the program for careful screening
of requirements and for the channel
ing of supplies so that they will be
effective in maintaining our own
production and in providing the
means for rehabilitation abroad.
! This study also makes clear that
with or without foreign aid pro-
gram, this country faces a pressing
urgency for expanding its conserva-
ton practices, such as those for pre-
serving the fertility of its soil and
the future of its forests and for eX-
tending its efforts to discover and
develop new sources of supply for
many of it's basic raw materials.
1t points to the need for stepping
up our research into new and bet
ter methods of using low-grade ores,
byproducts and what are now waste
materials. The beneficial effects
upon our resource base of such pro-
grams for the sound conservation
and utilization of our resources will
far exceed the drains that might
result from a foreign aid program.
1t has been source of keen sat
isfaction to me to observe the will
ingness with which great many
people throughout the Government
have responded to the need for CIV
ing time and effort for this study.
They have borne the brunt of the
work to a considerable extent of
their own time, after regular hours
and on holidays, and on top of their
regular work schedules.
Response of advisors from indus
try, labor and other groups have
been equally magnificent. These
circumstances have provided addi-
tional evidence that the American
people are vitality interested in dis
covering whether sound program
of foreign aid can be supported.
, This report will aid in deciding that
, question.
