ALASKA POPULATION
 UP 10000 IN NINE YEARS

Alaska's civilian population has increased by more than 10000 in the nine years since the last off cial census and by almost 5000 in the past year, according to estim- ates announced by the Alaska De- velopment Board in Juneau.
 Population of the Territory to- day, the Development Board be- lieves, is about 94,875. On October 1, 1889 the official census showed the Territory to have 72,524 peo- pie. The Boards estimate for this year compares with one of 92,000 for October 1, 1947
 The apportionment of the l948 population by judicial divisions is estimated by the Board as fol- lows: First Division, 27,200; Sec ond Division, 12,725; Third Divi- sion, 34,700; Fourth Division, 2O,- 25O.
 The population estimate, made in connection with exhibits pre- pared for the forthcoming Civil Aeronautics Board hearing on United States Alaska service, was based upon Alaska Native Service reports of the number of inhabi- tants in the Native villages, estim- ates by the mayors of incorporated towns, school enrolment figures and comparative telephone and

 Alaska Booster

TOKYO, (P) - Newest red-hot booster for Alaska is Airforce It. Gen. Nathan F. Twining, com mander of Alaska defenses.
 No Florida or California SUD- porter ever did more missionary work than General Twining ex- hibited in behalf of Alaska while here attending a series of military conferences at General MacAr- thurs headquarters.
 TWining, an ardent hunter and outdoorsman, found the region around his Anchorage headquar- ters a paradise for the huntsman, fisherman and outdoor sports en- thusiast.
 On the serious side, Twining said most problems connected with maintenance of planes and other service equipment in Alaska tenn peratures have been licked. Most pressing problem today is housing.

 As They Visit In Valley

One Anchorage couple, who made merry with Anchorage Elks at Palmer's gymnasium Sat urday night, found heartbreak at their journeys end. When MT. and Mrs. Wilfred Cookson re- turned home early last Sunday morning, they found their house had been completely destroyed by fire.

 The Cooksons said only a DOT tion of their loss was covered by insurance. There was no one in the house at the time of the fire.
