(In Tokyo, the VIVA Haneda air. port station manager, I. A. Groe said Northwest pilots have reported similar experience perhaps five or six times in the last Is months. Groe did not identify the convoy ing planes, but said they presum- ably were Russian craft on dawn patrol along the Kuriles.)
 Sees Kuriles Airstrip
 Aichison said it was the first time in his many flights to An chorage that he had seen the Kuriles, which were awarded to Russia in the Yalta agreement of 1945. Normally, weather over that area is so bad that American com mercial transports fly in or above the clouds.
 The airstrip that I and other passengers saw had runway about 7,500 feet long and as wide as those on Elmendorf Field (the U. $. Air Force base near Anchorage where VIVA planes land)" the Tokyo at torney related.
 Tt must have been built by the Russians because the Japanese nev- CT constructed field like that dur ing the war"
 Aichison spent 24 hours here on a shopping trip for his family and friends. He is en route back to Tokyo by plane tonight.
 No Comment Made
 The Times said it was unable to check Aichison's story with the pf- lot because crews were changed at Shemya, the island tip of the Aleu- tian Chain.
 Northwest officials here had no comment, other than to say that company planes were supposed to keep at least 20 miles away from

(ANNERY ELECTION DECIDED WITHOUT
 CHALLENGED v0TES

In the recent election of the Alaska Salmon Industry, Inc. work CTS to determine whether the en- ployees wished to be represented for the purpose of collective bar gaining by the United Alaska Fish ermen and Cannery Workers Union, AFI., ruling was handed down by the National Labor Relations Board in Seattle on the challenged votes.
 The challenges fall into several different categories with the An nette Islands Canning Company votes being impounded because ap- plication by the company for mem bership in the Alaska Salmon ln- dustry, Inc, was not made until after the execution of the agree ment for consent of election.
 The investigation in this case showed that the Annette Islands Canning Go. was not a member of Alaska Salmon Industry. Inc. in the year l948 and was not covered by any multiple-ensployer unit con- tract entered into by the associ- ation for the season of l948.
 Upon the basis of the facts in this case, and based upon what Thomas P. Graham, Regional Di- rector of the Nineteenth Region of the National Labor Relations Board, Seattle, deems to be the policy of the board in similar fac tual situations. Graham found that the employees of the Annette Islands Canning Go. were not em- ployees within the unit.
 Graham sustained tine challenges made to the ballots of all of the employees of that company, total ling 96 in all. The affirmative on the eallot had received a majority vote regardless of how the em- ployees may have voted on the re- maining ballots that were chal- lenged, totalling "A.

"The Monroe County Hospital is
