ientation of the worker in the Ter ritorial Office, so it appears that it will probably be after the first of the year before the office will open.
 The Department of Public Vel fare is making every effort to Se- cure a well qualified person; one that will adjust himself readily to the situations which exist and who will work well with people, ac- cepting the climate and other con- ditions common to that area. A number of very good applications have recently been received in the Territorial Office in Juneau and ar being prOceSsed as rapidly as possible. It is hoped that in the near future the CentrOl Office will be able to announce to the people of the Second Division, that a worker has been secured and that the District Office will be opCned to serve the people of that area. It is believed that a District Office in Nome will make it possible for the agency to extend a more com prehensive service to the people of the Second Division and it will bring the Department in closer toch with the problems and condi- tions which exist in the various communities.

The Alaska Development Board, by vote of it's members has peti- toned the CAB in Washington, D. C., in behalf of transportation in the Territory as follows:
 'In view of Alaska's unique sit uatiOn with respect to the import ance of aviation in relation to other forms of transportation more generally available elsewhere, we request that the CAB make a com prehensive regional study of Alas ka transportation needs with par ticular attention to the role of non scheduled and cargo air transpOr- tatiOn; meanwhile, holding in abeyance the cease and desist or ders pending against non-sched- uled carriers until the study is completed"

Welfare Office Will
 Be Re-Opened Here

The Department of Public Vel fare wishes to inform the people of the Second Judicial Division of the progress being made in the eS- tablishing of District Welfare of flee which will be set up in the City of Nome. At the present time a lease is being proceSsed with MT. Lencer for office space effective October 1, 1949. These prelimin- ary arrangements will facilitate immediate occupancy when a Dis trict Worker is secured, and will avoid any loss of time in searching for suitable quarters later on. In the mean time all case files and records will remain in the Terr.- torial Office in Juneau and the business of the District will con tinued to be cared for there under the supervision of Miss Erma Wainner, At present Mrs. Helen B. Olson is representing the Depart ment of Public Welfare as agent in the City of Nome, and all requests and inquiries should be made through her.
 The staff in the Nome District Office will consist of one full time Social Worker and a full time clerk stenographer. The So- cial Worker in the Nome Office will have the responsibility for the administration and supervision of the public welfare programs in the Second judicial Division and will supervise and instruct the 45 agents representing the Depart ment of Public Welfare in the other. areas of the Second Division. Due to the scarcity of suitable, qualified Social Workers through out the country the recruitment of a District Worker has presented a difficult problem and it is i'm possible to say definitely, or to make any promises as to the date when the office will open. Even after appointment, a c CT n amount of time will be required for preparation for travel and or

Hawaii Strike Settlement May Bring Statehood
By Charles D. Watkins

o(P) Special Washington Service)
 WASHINGTON, CP)-Statehood for Alaska and Hawaii early next year-if the Hawaiian dock, strike is settled - was predicted yester- day by Delegate Bartlett. . Bartlett said he believed that both statehood bills will be acted upon soon after the next session of Congress conveneS in January.
 "The two bills are so closely re- lated" Bartlett said, that they cannot be separated or acted upon Singly. If the Hawaiian strike is settled I believe there is an ex- cellent chance we will get state hood next year"
 Bartlett said the Hawaiian situ- ation lis another illustration why statehood should be granted to the two Territories.
 There is no doubt but that a Territory has more difficulty in ahndling a strike such as the pres ent one than a State"
 He said the question of State hood is uppermoSt in minds of AlaSkanS.

 The new regime has been recOg- nized by Russian-bloc countries besides the U.S.S.R.-Bulgaria and Romania. Other satellites are ex- pected to take action soon, now that the Kremlin nod has beeO given.
 Tn Washington, the state depart ment said it will make no move toward recognition without con- sulting Congress. London sources said the United States, Britain and France would assess the situation this week.
 Hungary lined up with Russia in charging that establishment of the West German government by the U. S., Britain and France vio- lated the Potsdam agreement for a united Germany.
 In Bonn, capital of the new re public, Chancellor KOnrad Ade- naur denied the Russian charges.
 In Berlin, a Soviet army news paper endorsed the speedy crea- ton of a national government in Berlin by German Communists.
