CAPT. ALF \. M0NSEN

The aviation industry in Alaska has suffered q tragic loss in the death cf Capt Blf N. Monsen. He went to his last flight as hc would have wanted to go, at the centrols as captain of his ship
 His life constituted enc of the longest chapters in the history of Alaskan aviation to which he turned 10 years after he came to Alaska in i9l7' Since that time he has contributed much towards developing that form Of transportation which IS more important in Alaska than any other place in the world. He not just good flyer He was absorbed 50 intensely in aviation that he devoted every waking moment to it. Even when he was of duty he spent many extra hours of his time working toward improving the service and safety of Alaskan aviation, it is to like Captain Monsen that Pan American Airways Alaska Divi- sion owes enc of the best safety records in the world, though flying conditions, fields and other facilities are not the best
 The news of his death provoked expressions cf regret from all ever the United States from those who had flown with him during his many years of flying and from colleagues and family friends
 Even after the ll-fated plane had been missing for almost a week, so great the confidence in Captain MOnsens ability that hope was still held that the ship and its passengers would be found safe.
 Captain Monsen came to Alaska in 1917 and was employed by the Alaska Railroad. His career followed closely those of other great names in Alaskan aviation. He began flying in 1928, talk ing his license at Fairbanks He friend crash to his death the field result of showing off and the event made a big impress sion the young flyer. He became known as safe, conservative pilot who never took chance.
 As of Aiaska's first arnlal pilots he be- came intimate with the terrain of the vast Inter- fer country and soon developed into bush pilot with reputation for knowing the country. It was this knowledge which prompted Pan Am erican Airways to offer him pilots job when that company began Alaskan operations in l932.
 Already an excellent contact pilot Pan Am crican's Alaskan system improved and instrument flying came into use Captain Monsen graduated to instrument flying with little trouble It this double knowledge that made Captain Monsen good pilot. Isis Knowledge of the Alaskan ter rain and weather brought him through many flight which could not have been made on instru- ments when he flew for the Navy during the war

IS FAMINE AHEAD?

A grim warning that 20 years from now America may not be able to feed itself, let alone Europe, was thrown up to President Truman the other day by Oklahoma's burly ex- governor, Bob Kerr who is still a power in Oklahoma politics.
 Reminding Truman of our in- crease in population on one hand and our annual loss of soil on the other, Kerr said: Each year the United States has from one to two million mouths to feed, and in the same period, floods wash away 500,- GOO acres of rich topso!l"

BIPARTISAN MEAT

Democratic blgwigs mace a ser iou5 mistake when they did not protest the serving of meat on nceatloss Tuesday at the swank rSrty given them by Mayor Der ua.d Samuel Of Philadelphia. In his ea c.ness to win the Democratic National Convention for the City cf Brotherly Love, the Republican n.ayts set out a heavily laden buf- let. grooming with ham and other delicacies. Most of the Democrats, however, were either too hungry or too polite to protest
 At least one Democrat was an exception Carl Rice of Kansas flatly refused to touch Republican meat on meatless Tuesday

 It locks if Princess Elizabeth might be spared part of the usual deuge of problem merchandise that hefalls public peTsonages when they wed. At any rate, in this country movement to send the princess food packages for her people instead of kick knacks for herself is gaining ground quarter ton Of food in the form of CARE packages each containing g pounds, has been consigned by the Washington Chapter Of the English Speaking Union, and similar projects under way throughout the country. Tor ento has been collecting shipment of food as wedding gift. It is understood the idea meets with Elzabcth's expressed wish
 Since the average, Briton now spends only $2.23 a week on food including only 20 cents for meat, and must sacrifice greatly on tea marmalade and other small luXuries that mean much to him, it would that the well wishers of the princess would get their greatest of satisfaction out of envenng the drab diet of her subjects.

called at the White House to plead for a reclamation study of the Ar kansas-Red River watersheds and to ask the President to save the u4g steam power plant at the Okla homa ordnance works for the pub lie. He accused Okiahcma's COP delegation Sen. E. H Moore, Rep. George Schwabe and Rep. Ross Rizley-of scheming to sell the surplus war plant to the Public Service Go. of Oklahoma, a private utility firm. The Grand River Dam Authority, Kerr said, has bid S3,- 500000 payable in bondS) for the war plant, which it badly needs, to bolster electric output The private utility company, on the other hand, bid only $2,5OO,OOO.
 On both counts, Truman was sympathetic but noncommittal. He , promised to give them every con- sideration.'
 Note-After his White House in- terview. Kerr made this comparison between Harry Truman and Frank lin Roosevelt: Roosevelt used to shake your hand and give you a speech until it came time for the secretary to kick you out. Truman sits back and let's you state your case. I did all of the talking"
 While Democratic National Com m.tteemcn were being entertained at a White House reception last week, Indiana's state chairman. Pleas Greenlee, buttonholed Presi- dent Truman to tell him about a Democratic "resurgence' in In diana. The Democrats, reported Greenlee, will win IS out of l02 mayors in the Indiana mayoralty elections Nov. 4.
 Were praying for good weather that day" explained the Indiana l Democrat, because there's also a special election to choose a Repre- sentative from the 10th District, and our man, Frank Hanley, is in, if the Republicans don't turn out 1 too big a farm vote against him. l However, if it rains and these far- n.ers come to town, Hanley may be 1 beaten.
 This is the same district that
 the late Republican Congressman i Springer swept by 26,000 votes last
 year But the race there will be
 close this year. So you see, the Democrats are staging comeback in Indiana.
 Truman also had a brief chat
 with Colorado National Committee man Barney Whatley in which he tentatively declined an invitation to speak at a reclamation and soil conservation conference in Denver next February
 T always like to visit Colorado"
 said the President, but with Con- gress in session I may not have the time. By the way, have you seen
 Fred Wallace recently"
 Mrs. Truman pricked up her ears
 at this, because Fred Wallace,
 resident of Denver, is her brother
 "Oh yes" reported Whatley. We

 Eight days with out cigarettes and the last of supplies exhausted was what Merrill Remington found when he al swered an emergency request last week for five men on St. Augustine Island.
 The men, taken in to the island sometime ago aboard the Alberto, have been working there taking out punicc. They finally managed the last of the week to get a rad io message into Anchorage that their food supply vas depleted. The mess age vas rclayed to Merrill Remington who agreed to make the flight to the: island with supplies.
 Due to bad weather and choppy seas lr. Hen ington was unable to Ia nd near the camp and was forced to set his plane dorm about two miles down beach. The first. thing the food hungry men scr- anbled for was cigarettes and they said they had been without any for ei- ght days and had even tried smoking coffee and tea. The last of their remaining supplies, pot atoes, had been consumed the day before.
