Bryan Leaves To Discuss Power At REA Conference

H. G. Bryan, representative of the Rural Identification Ad- ministration for Alaska, vii l leave for Butte, Mont, on June IT, he announced this week. Mr Bryan goes to Butte to attend a regional conference of three western areas of REA, which in- cludes most of the states west of the Mississippi River.
 Claude Wickard, REA admin istrator, will open the confer ence, which is to be attended by all REA field personnel in the conference area.
 MT. Bryan said he would con- fer with Mr. Wickard, while at the conference, concerning the furthering of Alaska's REA pro- gram. It is also his intention to discuss with the REA chief an application of the Matanuska Electric Association for addi- tional loan funds in order to con- struct a building. MT Bryan pointed out that MEAS need for this building has greatly in- creased since the cooperative S former offices were destroyed in the Wright Building fire.
 The two REA officials also will discuss the possible con struction of an auxiliary steam plant near the Matanuska coal fields. This plant, to be consid- cred supplementary pow we r source to Eklutna, would fill in- terim power needs until con- struction at Eklutna could be completed. Valley users would draw on the steam plant power through high power transmits sion lines.
 The REA agent sails on the Aleutian on June IF, and will return to the Valley early in July. During his absence, D. T. LoWery will be in charge of the local office.

Woman, Baby Burned By Oil

A Palmer woman and her 22- months old baby, Mrs. Jack Lowe and daughter Louise, were se- verely burned in an accident at a mining camp at Folger this week. Mrs. Lowe recently had flown to the Strandberg camp there, where she expected to spend the summer.
 -An oil stove exploded, spray ing mother and baby with burn ing oil.
 Although Folger is many miles from hospital facilities of any sort, the pair were admitted to Providence Hospital in Anchor age within four hours of the ac- cident. A plane, on it's way from McGrath to Anchorage, received a radioed message for help inn mediately after the accident, and tufned back to pick up Mrs. Lowe and her baby.

Moose Brings Palmer
 To Miners Doorstep

Blessed with a face that only a mother (moose) could love, sprawling spindly legs that even rickets cure couldn't help, and a very un-roselike fragrance, this tWo-weeks old moose baby has been drawing bigger audiences at Premier Mine than any Lana Turner premiere.
 He's the property of Bert Mei- CTS at the mine, and he's been the object of more watchful care than many human baby gets. All alone and very hungry, he was herded into Buffalo Mine by dog about a week ago.
 H is finders requisitioned baby bottle and nipple and at tempted to round out some of the hollows where his skeleton nearly poked through the hide. But hungry though he was, the baby moose would have none of the bottle. Finally cone thought to cut the end from a finger stall as substitute for nipple, and with the free lunch coming quick and easy, the baby took a new lease on life.
 Now he's well on the way to recovery MT. Meters thinks, al- though his audiences say he is still by far the skinniest, runt- jest baby moose ever discovered. He still takes milk from the fingerstall, but he's growing up enough to nibble at grasses and young shrubs growing in the Meters dooryard.
 Occasionally, in a errier mood the young moose consid-

Plane Still Flies On Valdez Run

Although the plane of the Val dez Air Service met disaster be- fore last weeks account of their charter freight and passenger service between Valdez and Pal mer reached print, that will be continued, according to Al King of Palmer.
 MT. King said yesterday that it is now planned to originate the flights at Palmer rather than at Valdez. Pilot Bob Totten of Pal mer Air Service already has made two trips to Valdez.
 The ship will make at least one trip each week, in order to assure Valdez of it's fresh milk supply. Other charter trips will be made, whenever passenger and freight hauls are necessary.
 MT. King will make charter arrangements to Valdez for MT. Totten.

Mine Layoff Will Begin Tomorrow

The Jonesville mine will close Saturday evening for a vacation period that is expected to ex- tend over three or four weeks, it was announced today by mine manager Harry Hill. MT. Hill said he thought that Jonesville would not resume full-sca1e op- erations before July 15.
 The reason for this vacation, the first at Jonesville for five years, is that all Army contracts have been filled, and a coal stockpile has been built for use of The Alaska Railroad.
 Its the first tine we've had it happen" MT. Hill commented. Heretofore we've had to scratch to fill our contracts, but this year we had more men than we've had before and little less coal to get out"
 It was estimated that about 40 employees of the mine will be laid off. Many of them al- ready have left Jonesville, some to take advantage of the salmon fishing season. Married employees will not be required to leave their quarters at E Eska, and planned maintenance and reno vation work within the mine will be carried out by those men who remain in residence there.
 Vacation work plans at the mine include the re-laying of ties in the Jonesville yards, work within the mine which can be completed only while the mine is down, and some work at the Washery.
 MT. Hill said the lay-off had nothing to do with lack of coal reserves at Jonesville, for there is still many years of coal min ing work at the present site. Drillers are expected to begin investigation of the western side of the Jonesville holdings some time this summer. It is possible that a new mine may be opened closer to transportation lines.

 Port Runway .ToBe Shifted

Palmer's airport has received the green light from the office of the Territorial Highway En- gineer. The Airport Association will proceed immediately with new construction plans which will fit the east-West airstrip for the accommodation of planes up to DC-4s in size.
 Principal change in existing construction at the port is the re- location of the east-west runway. The entire runway has been pivoted, so that the lower end leads toward Knik Glacier, all lowing an 18-mile approach from that direction. There is also un- limited approach from the upper end of the strip.

 Not more than $3,5OO is to be spent on this portion of the work. While the north-south runway is under construction, a temporary strip, 2,5O0 feet in length, is to be laid out on the east-west runway for the use of small planes.
 The remainder of money al lotted to the Palmer port, total ling $3O,000 in all, is to be spent in work on the east-West strip. The pivoting of the present land makes 1t necessary to purchase an additional 12 acres of ground from A. w.

Previously. the Michigan Senator

means of getting his name before

The strategy then was to plump
Michigan's Al votes on the first
ballot without a nominating speech
Some of Senator Vandenberg S
advisers preferred that Gov. Sigler
merely make a brief, extem-
poraneous statement from the floor
instead of mounting to the rostrum
and pulling out all the stops.
Gov. Sigler claimed more than 100
votes for the Senator on the first
ballot "if / want to use them"

and an stimated 500 other eager
Michigan hackers scurried from

Gov. Sigler was unable to say
whether Gov. James H. Duff of

Gov. Sigler said Michigan still
counts on Gov Duff to deliver in

where the Michigan votes might &c

Children Here Warned
To Remain Off Streets

With the closing of schools today
for the summer vacation, Traffic
Director George E. Keneipp made
an urgent plea for parents to warn
their children to remain off the
streets.
He released a special study re-
vealing the type of traffic acci-
dents which injured children up to
IA during the vacation period last
year. The survey showed total
of one death and 276 injuries in
the period from June 18 to Septem-
Der 2, l947.
I'm the vast majority of instances
it is the unpredictable action of
children which led to accidents, .
Mr.. Keneipp said. This by no
means releases the motorist from
exercising the utmost care in driv-
ing. 1t does, however, point up the
fact that children, too. have a re-
sponsibility in this matter of acci-
dent avoidance"
