plANS FOR RAILROAD FROM BC 10 ALASKA
 ARE NOW REVEALED
Highly Confidential Report Is Released by U. }.
 Army Engineers

WASHINGTON. Feb. 23.--R- Army construction of railroad from Prince George, British Columbia, to Alaska was held possible and desir- aLle during the war in contiden- tial report of the Army engineers.
 The report covered survey of a possible route where standard euage. single-track railroad could be built most quickly from Prince George to connect with The Alaska Railroad.
 The report was classified as highly confidential until few weeks ago when the Army permitted an- nouncement of the fact that the survey has besn made. Much of the data gathered by the survey still re- mains secret Senator Magnuson (D-Wash) made public an unre- stliated portion today.
 The proposed road, for Army use, would have cost S111,859000 and Gould have teen completed in little more than a year. All of the details of construction were worked out in the survey which even contained a description of the land to be tra- versed
 The construction was to follow the Rocky Mountain trench and would have been located about 25o miles inland from the Alaska coast. IL was a route free from many high grades and through territory which, although cold in the winter, is com- paratively free from snow fall, having a precipitation of only about 20 inches year.
 The engineers reported that the entire route offers a favorable loca- ton for a railroad They said, how ever, that it had been located with view of rapid construction and that the economic qualifications were not even given second considera- tion'
 They said the survey was made on basis of military necessity 3nly, but that the route was a gooi economic route passing through farm, timbec and mineral lands.
 About 250 miles of the railroad would have been located in Alaska  and about HOO in Canada.

Power Barge
 Is Grounded
 Near Cordova
Engineer Walks 30 Miles Through Snowdrifis for
 Aid-3 Others Aboard

CORDOVA, Alaska, Feb. 23.-lH- The engineer of the power 1arge Flying Cloud arrived here yesterday after a herculean trek through some 30 miles of waist-deep snow and sloughs to report his vessel grounded on reef on the Copper River Flats.
 The craft at last report still was hanging on a bar off Grass Island, under assault by ocean breakers, and it's three passengers-Mr. and Mrs. Fred Howard and their son. in-law, Robert Zentmire-were awaiting aid. A Cordova Air Service plane carrying Pilot Buck Starpuck and observer Jack Downing spotted the 105-foot barge yesterday after noon.
 Engineer Leonard Holeman, the toes of one foot frozen, told this story of his perilous exploit.
 The Flying Cloud, bought ty How ard from Army Surplus. left Cor dova Saturday night for Seattle where it was to be outfttad for cold storage.
 Gales, snow anS s'.st i,npsded the voyage throughout the night and heavy southeastsr finally drove the craft ashore at 5 am Monday.
 Holeman walked across a five mile stretch from the inside bar to the mainland, then some 25 miles through waist-deep snows and sloughs. He left about am. Mon day and arrived at the CAA station, 13 miles from here, at l pm. yes terday.
 After foundering in deep drifts, the engineer came upon a spruce thicket and fashioned crude snow shoes from the branches.
 The tug Mahalo will attempt to free the barge. Plans were contem- plated for immediate organization of a rescue party to take the strand- d trio off the craft.
 q hope I never have to make another trip like that" said Hole man, but a fellow has to do those things in a pinch"
