Plan l8 New Sea- plane Bases For
 Southeast Alaska

ANCH GRACE, (4') - Alaska, where the airplane is the chief maens of intra- Territorial trans portation, has prepared master plans for seaplane base expansion to augment recent plans for inn proved land plane facilities.
 The new master plans were for l8 new seaplane bases. three in the Anchorage area and the re- mainder in Southeastern Alaska. Previously, plans were forwarded to Washington, D. C., for eight land-based airplane fields.
 Both master plans and construc- tion plans for the bases got pre- liminary approval from Edward c. Fisher, acting administrator of Alaska airport.
 Washington approval is antici- pated by the Alaska Aeronautics and Communications Division, which expects to call for bids on all projects-land and sea bases about Feb. l.
 Proposed seaplane bases in this area will be at Whittier, Seldovia and Latouche. Others are sched- uled for Tenakee, Hoonah, Todd, Hood Bay, Angoon, Ketchikan, Rake, Craig, Tongass Harbor, Gus tavus, Sitka, Baranoff, Hyder, Hydaberg and Metlakatla.
 The seaplane base plans are the culmination of all federal airport aid projects proposed for conStruc- tion in the Territory under the 1850 program, Tony Schwamm, director of aviation, said.
 Previously forwarded to the CAA in Washington were master plans for new fields or extensions of existing runways at Fort Yu- kon, Kotzebue, Palmer, Ninilchik, Seldovia, Skagway, Dillingham; and Seward.
 All are designed to accommo- date any aircraft up to a fully loaded DC-3.
 Schwamm said the proposed seaplane base sand ramps are de- signed specifically to accommodate twin-engined craft.
 Tn addition to drafting federal aid plans, the Territorial Aeronau- tics Division carried out in the pase season improvements at a dozen small airfields serving iso- lated communities.
 Chairman of the division is Gov. Gruening. Other members are Jack Carr, Anchorage; William Lavery, Fairbanks, and Sheldon Simmons, Juneau.

Search For Canvas Shelter Of Long Missing Pilot

ANCHORAGE, (P) Four ser geants from the air forces 10th Rescue Squadron were enroute Saturday to reach for the canvas shelter in the rugged Talkeetna Mountain area for trace of Fran cis Brownfield, airplane pilot missing since Sept. 5.
 Two Talkeetna men sighted the collapsed shelter earlier last week.
 Friday a break in the weather allowed two Cessna ski-equipped planes to take off from Lake Hood for the area with four trail crew members of detachment A, 10th Rescue Squadron, from Elmendorf air force base.
 The sergeantS were to be drop ped off at Lake Watana, east of Mt. Watana, approximately ten miles from the lonely bench on Big Kosima Creek where the can vas shelter was spotted. The crew will go overland from the lake but the going will be rugged due to the deep snows.
 Crew members are S/Sgt. L. J.. Storney, Holyoke, Mass; Sgt. c. R. Hill, Wauconda, Wash, T-Sgt. Keith R. Clemmons, Flat Rock, Mich, and S-Sgt. M. E. Shepherd, Thornburg, Ia. Plane pilots were Capt. Roy E. Holdiman, Anchor age, and It. John Sufferer, Fur ner, Ore.
 Meanwhile, a fund to aid the Brownfield family went over the S2,000 mark today.
 A benefit dance will clear over S1,OOO; thePatti-MacDonald Con- struction Co.,, and employees added another $500; and previously more than $1 500 had been dona- ted by Anchorage firms and resi- dents.
 Newspapers and radio stations are aiding in the drive for funds to relocate Mrs. BroWnfield and her six children at Sequim, Wash, where the parents of the lost flyer reside.
 Brownfeld has been missing since flying into the Talkeetna area to make rendezvous with a hunting party, which later hiked back to civilization. Wreckage of his plane was found a few days after he left.

recognition as a just and proper
piece of legislation for future bene-
fits to farmers as well as many
others.
The MVA could make better use
of acres and acres of land possible
through irrigation, for areas that do
not get enough water. Think, also,
of the good all the new dams would
do in preventing floods. The pre-
vention of those big floods would
be worth considerable I would
think.
Then there is the cheaper cleo
tricity that can be had from all
that stored-up water power. 1t is a
shame it could not be made good
use of before this. Electricity can
be so useful on the ranches that are
still too far from REA possibilities.

will say no. Of course, we all agree
that blowing with the moldboard
pillow is slow and expensive. The
disc pillow will solve this question,
for it pulls so much easier and is
not so expensive to operate as the
moldboard pillow.
1t seems reasonable that the deep
er the seed bed is the more moisture
will be held in the subsoil. This sub
soil moisture means SO much for
crops during dry spells. Regardless
of the depth of blowing with the
disc plow it does not turn the stub
BILE down to the bottom of the fur
row as the moldboard pillow does,
consequently there is still enough
stubble left near the top of the
ground to hold the soil from drift
ing.
1t is hard to get away from the
following: "Plow deep while slug
CARDS sleep and you will have grain
to sell and keep"

DEDICATION: To both the
Macedonians and the people
of the adjacent villages the
first of August was indeed a
memorable day. It was the day
for which they had prayed
and worked so long, when
their school building, at last
completed, was opened and
dedicated. They gathered in
throngs in the yard; and stand
ing on the step, the trio COM
posed of Sisters M. Moore, E.
Kowlessar, and Mr.. T. Bassoo,
sang, "Open the Door for the
Children" after which, the
door was opened by your hum
BILE servant, who led the con-
gregation in the dedication of
both the building and their
lives to Almighty God.

Three thousand dancers graced
the floor, the women lending color
to the scene in the pastel gowns
so popular this season and the
men almost unanimously in formal

The Armory was a scene OF
beauty. A grove of oriental cherry

Milk Contamination With DDT
Held Insufficient for Alarm

OF DDT in spraying dairy cattle
and barns. The Federal Food
Drug and Cosmetic Act requires
the Food and Drug Administration
to insure that the food supply OF
the American people does not
contain any poisonous or deleteri-
Gus substance that is not necessary
in the production of the food
Studies by the Bureau Of Entomol-
ogy and Plant Quarantine have
shown that DDT when used on
dairy cattle or when present on
fodder fed to dairy cattle may ap-
pear in the milk. They also say
that DDT in small quantities can
be detected sometimes in milk, fol-
lowing ordinary use Of the insecti-
eide for fly control In dairy barns
Because Of the vital importance
of milk in the diet Of infants, chill
dren and people Of all ages. it is
essential that proper precautions
be taken to protect the milk sup
ply. Modification of the recon-
mendation made by the Depart
ment of Agriculture on the use OF
DDT on dairy cattle were made
merely as = precautionary meas
ure.
There is no justification for
public alarm as to the safety Of the
milk supply from the standpoint
of DDT contamination"

Federal officials have assured
the public that there is no need
for alarm over possible poisoning
from traces of DDT found in food.
Agriculture Department and
Food and Drug Administration
spokesmen said last night after a
meeting of Government agencies
concerned with the use Of DDT
in fields affecting public health
that statements have been pub
lished which might mislead or
alarm the public.
The agencies referred to state
ments in a New York newspaper
that DDT is responsible for caus-
ing. the so-called Virus x disease"
in humans and * disease" in cat
tie.
The joint statement follows:
"A number of statements have
been published during the last
several days which have misled
and alarmed the public concerning
the hazards Of using DDT as an
insecticide.
'DDT is a very valuable insec-
ticide which has contributed ma
terially to the general welfare Of
the world. 1t has been used with
marked success in both the control
and prevention of such insect
borne diseases as malaria and
typhus and of insects which are
destructive to crops and injurious
to livestock and infect homes.
1T is well recognized that DDT,
like other insecticides. is poison.
This fact has been given full con-
sideration in making recommended
tions for its use. There is no
evidence that the use of DDT in
accordance with the recommends
tions of the various Federal
agencies has ever caused human
sickness due to the DDT itself.
This is despite the fact that thou
sands Of tons have been used
annually for the past four or five
years in the home and for crop
and animal protection. However.
minor toxic symptoms may be
produced by kerosene and various
solvents used in DDT and prac-
tically all other insecticidal mix
lures.
Statements that DDT is re-
sponsible for causing the so-called
virus x disease" of man and *
disease" of cattle are totally with
out foundation. Both of these di-
seases were recognized before the
utilization of DDT as an in
secticide.
