FORMER JUNEAU DOUGLAS
RESIDENTS WILL MEET
AT SEATTLE PICNIC JULY II

Anyone from Juneau or Douglas
who is in Seattle on July II will
probably plan to accept the invi-
tation of George Benson to the an
nual Juneau-Douglas picnic in
Woodland Park.
The Alaskans will meet at Stove
No. /, and anyone who doubts their
success should talk to anyone who
has attended one of the picnics in
the past.
Last year, in spite of rain in the
middle of the afternoon, there was
a big crowd of Alaskans, many of
whom had come from out Of town,
with much greeting OF old friends
and renewal of friendships in the
GOOD old Alaskan manner.
Mr.. Benson, who acts as secre-
tary of the Juneau-Douglas resi-
dents in Seattle, says that it is
all fixed with the weather man tina.
there will be no rain this year,
hence more fun, bigger picnic is
expected.
Benson's Seattle address is 7003
18th avenue, NV. Seattle Z, should
any travelling Juneau or Douglas
residents wish to reach him.
1t is a fine tradition, the annual
picnic, and there will be many
people on the channel who wish
they could he there.

outmoded. in favor of the B-36.
But the B-36, Johnson continued,
is a much more expensive plane,
and to build 10 air groups around
it would send the military budget
from s14,7S0, 100000 up to $1,000
G0o,G00
Furthermore, johnson said that
building too many B-36's now would
probably mean they would be out
of date two or three years hence
Therefore, he proposed spreading
the building program over a longer
period.
Finally, he pointed out that, II
war should come, production could
be speeded up in relatively short
time.
Johnson's presentation was brief,
to the point and positive. He left
no doubt in the minds OF the mill
tary men who listened to him that
he had made up his mind.
Note-Later that day johnson
made the same presentation to Sec
ret session of the Senate Armed
Services committee. They also ac-
copied the plan without argument.
Some experts, incidentally, figure
the proposed 48 groups at 81 groups.

published on Dec. /, 1912, charge
that Meyers was practicing deliber-
ate deception regarding airplane
production figures. The charge, If
untrue, would have been libelous.
However, it was made only after
careful checking.
The anonymous letter received by
the FBI could not be checked by
the FBI without permission from
the army, since its own inspector
general has jurisdiction over mill
tary personnel. That was why
Hoover sent the letter to General
Arnold.
Note-Perhaps the solution for
FBI files is to have two sets. %
strictly confidential and containing
unchecked data never to be made
public; CD set of evaluated files,
containing carefully checked data,
known to be true. which could be
produced in court.
Note 2-On another point, Hoover
says: Some of my friends in Coo
gress think they are flattering me
by proposing that the FBI be Gen.
stituted as a separate agency. I
do not agree. The FBI is an inves-
tigating agency for the Justice De-
partment, which is the prosecuting
agency. The two must work togeth-
er, and thus cannot be divorced"

CARELESSNESS
In BRUSH FIRFS
RESULTS IN LOSS

Each year forest fires resulting
from carelessness burning of brush,
grassland and other materials cause
a large percentage of the woodland
lost by forest fires. The number of
fires occurring from this cause in
the spring of 1948 was 38Go of the
total number of fires handled in the
district. In Mcdowell county dur
ing the spring of 194s, $3.50 of the
fires occurring resulted from this
cause.
In order to burn material of any
kind within 500 feet of any wood
land in any of the counties under
forest protection in the State of
North Carolina burning permit
must be secured. This permit is re-
quired from the first day Of Feb
ruary through the first day of June
and from the first day of October
to the 30th day of November in any
year. Safe burning can be done by
following the instructions on the
back of the permit. During periods
of drought or extremenly dry wea-
ther all burning should be suspend
ed until after sufficient rains. These
permits are given without charge by

The most badly needed change, he
says, is the replacement of mongrel
flocks with quality chickens. The
Indifferent breeding practices which
produced the mongrel flocks have
eliminated the possibility of profit
able egg production in many cases.
It would be better by far to sell
such birds and replace them with
quality purebred utility chicks.
A bred-to-lay hen, says Professor
Dearstyne, requires no more feed,
floor space, or time spent in man
agement than the non-profitable
mongrel-and the returns will be
greatly increased.
