Barrage Lays Low 800 lb. Blond Brute

Flying with Gent" Shuster in his Widgeon of the Safeway Air ways Ted Carlson, "Curley" Way ne and P. J. Fails landed in the Lost Lake Area on the north west side of the lake.
 The object of the. expedition was to hunt goats.
 One large Brownie was seen about 400 yards from the plane as it landed and after working up the mountain they found where several goats had been killed before the season opened
 The trio sat up all that night and kept a fire going because considerable noise beyond h e light of the fire kept them awake. This was made, they thought. by brown bear.
 Starting out the next morning they were charged by one of the bear and. all three firing at once, dropped the brute with shot in each shoulder and Wayne's lead slug from .405 squarely in the throat. tThis .405, by the way. is the same type and calibre as Teddy R. used in Africa.) Two other brownies. much larger, were seen.
 The hair on the bear was loose, slipping, and the hide was not taken. They finished the day hunting for goats but none were seen.
 Very few berries were found in that particular area.
 Almost back to camp Fails caught his foot in an alder tangle and fell, spraining his ankle badly, and today he bemoans his luck which keeps him on crutches for some time to come and eliminates him from nimrodic activities until the second moose season when he swears he will get his moose.

Used For War Training

Top mystery of the maritime world is the exact aim and nature of the Soviet Unions merchant feet which operates behind an "iron curtain like everything else in the USSR.
 The Sov;ets are believed to have the worlds fourth largest fleet consisting of approximately 600 ships, a little less than third of the number in the active U. S.. fleet. However, the movements of only about 110 ships are reported. Where the rest go and what they carry is Soviet secret.
 The reason that the movements of the 110 can be recorded by the western nations is they touch for. eign ports and so find their way into American, British and other registers.
 Apparently the rest of the fleet travels only between Soviet ports or Soviet-controlled ports in which ship arrivals and departures can be covered by censorship.
 Of the 87 American built ships which went to the Soviet Union under lend-lease and later state

1 am glad to be back in Alaska. see that Seward is in a dither about the possibility oE the elim- nation of the Seward railroad link. 1 am of the opinion that in taking such step Alaska would be missing the bet of lifetime in the development of the tourist travel. l know of no other ap- proach to port in the United States or in Alaska that com- pares with Harding Entrance and its environs and with Resurrection Bay. Seward is ideally located as gateway into the most beautiful section of Alaska. Its pretty curio stores. clean and nicely equipped food and drug stores. it's small but clean hotels and it's courteous peo- pie. all together form real nu- cleus for a major development in the tourist trade. It's Gabe Steak House. it's Soper Inn and it's Hen
 ton Ranch, can all be expanded to take care of thousands of tourists. Where in the world can you have glaciers within stones throw: where do you have the rugged ness of the Rockies covered with oo1nvftI1 f1nyynrc II,h can you see the most gorgeous

One week stopover round- trip steamer passengers could not only observe all the color and ruggedness of the rail trip but they could visit Anchorage and then return for three or four days of fishing, hunting and hiking, unsurpassed in the untry. Through tourists could spend a number of days at Russian River, Lake Kenai or at some of the many ideal camping spots. enjoy the hospitality of Seward and then take the trip by train to Anchorage and proceed in a most contented mood to other parts of Alaska, if they so desired.
 l am here to pay my respects to my friends, visit with our agents and outline to them our future plans. We are now on our own, the legislatively approved extend- ed interim plan having been suc- cessfully sabotaged by the influ- ence of some of those persons that opposed it from the very begin ming.

On the northern side of this wonderland is the progressive city of Anchorage. This beautiful area can be reached by water and by air.
 We have heard of the potenti- alities of the tourist traffic in Alaska What have we done in a real constructive way? To scrap Seward link will kill one of the few dreams of the tourist trade possible of materializing. The CO., ordinated efforts of the transpor- tation companies and The Alaska Railioad could make this dream come true. What if it does cost a few additional government dol lars to rehabilitate the link. It would be just contribution by the federal government of one of Alaska's industries definitely ne glected in the past.

RECOMMENDATIONS
In order to establish a sound
basis of child welfare services
in St. Croix certain additional
recommendations should be
considered.
|. Budget appropriations for
child welfare purposes should
be made on a basis of the ex-
tent of the problem, the mat
erial for which should be in
careful and accurate report
ing from the Department of
Social Welfare.
2. Active participation of
all elements in the community
toward the extension of the
other welfare titles of the So
cial Security Act to the Virgin
Islands; namely, Aid to the
Blind-Aid to Dependent Chill
dren, and Old Age Assistance.
3. There should be regular
meetings of and active parti-
cipation by the Welfare Board
in the program of the Depart
ment.
A. Employment of at least
one more college grade case
worker to the staff of the
Child Welfare Division is re-
commended as the case-load
is already too heavy for two
workers, according to accept
ed standards for child welfare
agencies.
5. Two high school grade
case workers should be added
to the staff of the Adult Divi-
sion of the Department. Those
