DEPARTMENT STORE
SALES TAKE DROP
(By The Associated Press


Something has happened to de-
partment store sales across the
country. Department store cash
registers rang up eight per cent
less sales during the first week
Of November than they did dur
ing the same week last year. And
the second week of this. month is
nine per cent off last years mark
This means that the actual
amount Of goods sold has shown
an even sharper drop, since pri-
ces are higher today than they
were on year ago.
High prices may be the reason
for the slump in department store
sales. Or it may be the weather
Whatever the reason, two-week
drop in department store sales is
so rare that government officials
can't recall offhand when the last
one occurred.

FOREST SERVICE
ROAD EXPERT ON
ALASKA SURVEY
Howard R. Jones Of Wash
ton,D.C. Studies Alaska S
Specialized Problems

Findings of great importance tC
the Territory, and particularly tC
Southeast Alaska, may well result
from the visit of Howard r. Jones
Of Washington, D. G., who arrived
in Juneau yesterday.
AS assistant to the chief engi-
neer OF the United States Forest
Service. Jones has to do with roads
n National Forest areas.
Tongass National Forest, which
occupies most of Southeast Alaska,
is by far the largest one in the Ter
tory, and problems Of transport
tation the most complex.
This trip to Alaska said Jones
today, "is completely unlike those
0 other regions. The entire problem
is different So much of it is in
forests; so many forests are on is
lands-and on such small islands.
1T is clear that, with the great
increase of population in Alaska,
there must be a greater road-build-
ing program" he continued.
Purpose of this, his first trip to
Alaska, is to see what is being done,
and what should be done, concern
ing transportation facilities.
Jones. who is stopping at the
Baranof Hotel, plans to be several
days in the Juneau and Sitka areas,
before going to Anchorage and Sew
possibly to Fairbanks-on his
two-week visit to the Territory.
Charles CT. Burdick, assistant re-
g.onal forester, who met Jones III
Ketchikan, probably will accompany
him.
Burdick was en- route home from
a trip to Seattle and Portland
where he attended to Forest Service
matters concerning litigation in the
Alaska Spruce Log Program, a war
time project.
