NEWS FROM

We were glad to have re-
lief from the heat spell which
carried the mercury up to
about ITO degrees in the shade
on several days last week. The
temperature now is ideal.
When the first hot day came
the tourists packed their bags
in hurry. When we have to
get up and give the dog a
drink of water at 2 am. be-
cause of the heat one realizes
that summer is just around the
corner.
In spite of the discomfort
we had a good response to the
meetings in spirit though not
in numbers. Last Wednesday

Appropriate was the singing
of "Beautiful Garden of
Prayer" by the male quartet.
We have had a response

in the Zion Chapel when the

were given. I would like to say
that ours was a great blessing
in hearing the recording of the

 FOR ENGINEERS

SEATTLE, July 31.-R-The AL aska Raoilroad challenges Ameri- 'can railroad construction engineers with the same problems met and overcome between the l960's and 1900's when the Far West was vir- gin territory and rail lines were first pushed westward to the Pac- fife coast, Gen. Carl Gray, Jr., said today.
 Returning from Alaska with oth- CT committee members named to survey the line and rehabilitation plans, General Gray said he would report shortly to Secretary of the Interior Krug.
 He is a vice president of the Chicago & Northwestern Railway Co., and headed the committee
 The Alaska Railroad has never been completed" he said. Tt challenges the imagination and the engineering skill and ingenuity of continental United States railroad men,"
 With modernization plans under way, however, he said, the railroad should within five years be able to handle all needed traffic. The major construction problem is the 10 miles of line between Mount Mckinley National Park station and Healy, down river gorge which has caused trouble from the beginning"
 The other consultants serving with him were William B. Irwin, assistant to the vice president of the Great Northern Railway, St Paul, and Col. E. F. McFadden, the Union Pacific, Denver.

lance of the legislative approach
and the educational approach.
Later in the year, public hear
