 IN PUBLIC WORKS

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9-tR-The General Services Administration announced today the allotment to Alaska of an additional S2O0,000 under a new program of applica- tions for federal loans for the prep aration of plans for public works,
 l. was described as a loan, with out interest.
 Alaska's apportionment was in creased along with four states be- cause the applications for loans already exceed their previous allo- cations. Alaska previously had been allotted $90,839.
 Jess Larson, General Services Ad- ministrator, explained that the loans are to encourage state and other public agencies to maintain re- serve shelf of fully-p planned public works to be available whenever the economic situation might make con- struction desirable.
 Congress has reinstituted the ad- vanced planning program with an authorization of $100,000,000 for planning loans for two years.

RUSS LEAD U. S. IN
 PLANES, BUT OURS
 BEST, SAYS EXPERT
By JAMES T. sTREBIG

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9-R-An American aviation expert said today Russia is ahead of the United States both in aircraft production and in the number of military planes il has in service.
 However, said John F. Victory executive secretary of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronau- tics (NACA), this country isn't dis turbed by that situation because il feels that it has the better planes.
 We think we still have supremacy in the air" he said, because of the superior performance and military effectiveness of our aircraft"
 Victory said in prepared speech that neither the United States nor Russia has a practical military plane of super-sonic speed. US. planes can go faster than sound now only when unarmed, he said, add ing:
 We see ourselves in the position of a runner in a race who knows he is being hard pressed"

LONDON, Feb 9---LR-A British expert says the Soviet Air Force is as strong tactically today as any in the world, but it would still be unable to carry the atom bomb to Washington or New York without advanced bases far from home.
 Asher Lee, who was wing com mander in Air Intelligence during the war, made the statement in a book entitled "The Soviet Air Force," published today.
 Russia, he said, has about I2.00U operational military planes-two air armies of about 1000 such planes each attached to each of six Soviet Army headquarters.
 The Soviet Union. the Soviet Zone of Germany and other coun- tries under Russian domination to- yether are manufacturing 40000 to 50000 planes year, said Lee, which would enable the Soviet Air Force to maintain about Is air armies, each with strength of 1000 to l 800 aircraft"

pUp MAKES SEARCH FOR MISSING PLANE:
 100 HOURS, FLYING

WHITEHORSE, Y. T., Feb. 9--LR Prince, a seven-week- shep- herd dog, would rather chase fluffy white clouds around at 10,000foot levels than bark at the heels of fluffy white sheep on solid ground. He was at his accustomed post at daybreak today.
 When the crew of United States Air Force B-17, engaged for the last two weeks in giant aerial search for a missing C-54 climbed aboard their plane, they found the little brown pup sitting in the co-pilot's seat. Prince has made every search flight with the B-l7 and has about 100 hours flying time
 The pup, only airborne mascot at this northern search base, accom- panies Lieut.. Jim Keel of Chicago III. eight hours every day as the American pilot and his crew search treacherous mountain tops and val leys.
 We've got him along as protec- tion against wolves in case we have to come down somewhere in this rugged country" joked one crew member.

Americans Who Were Held Prisoners 10 Receive S1
 Each Day in Captivity

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9-R- Americans captured by the Japanese and Germans during World War II are to receive $t for each day they spent in captivity.
 This decision has been reached by the War Claims Commission which said that American prisoners of war in German and Japanese camps did not get food equal to the quality and quantity agreed on in the Geneva convention of 1929.

Assessment Work On Mining Claims
 May Be Clarified

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9-tR-The Senate is expected to act soon on House bill to clarify a. law sus- pending mining claim assessment work requirements for the year ended July 1, 1949.
 The law was approved at the last session. It permitted claimants who already had performed the required s10O worth of assessment work on their claims during the year to have this credited to the year ending July 1, 1850.
 However, confusion arose as to how this credit could be claimed.
 The House, therefore. passed a bill Tuesday to allow such claim ants up to July of this year to file notices for the work credit.

BILL PASSED BY HOUSE FOR UppING
 OF POSTAL RATES

WASHINGTON. Feb. 9-lRl-The House voted today for hikes in postal rates expected to bring the post office department $130.000,000 more year.
 A voice vote passed the bill and sent it to the Senate.
 Before the final vote, a Republi- can motion to send the bill back to committee for further study was beaten, PIT to 150.
 The bill would raise the rate for post and postal cards from one to two cents, but would leave the first class letter rate at the present three cents.
 Other main changes are higher rates on commercial publications, on bulk printed matter, and on parcel post
 None of them can go into effect unless the Senate approves them.
 The $130,0O0,O00 rise is less than half the amount President Truman has asked for higher postal rates.

NO DEFE MSE FROM BOMBS
 NOW, CLAIM
Only Way 10 Prevent One from Dropping Is 10
 Strike Where Made

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9-tR-Dr. Vannevar Bush, atomic scientist, said today the only defense against atomic or hydrogen bombs is to keep them from reaching their tar get or to strike the place where they are made.
 ,"There is no defense against a bomb, as such," Bush told reporters.
 He said he had given that opinion to the Senate Armed Services Com mittee during a two-hour secret discussion of modern weapons and defenseS.
 Bush was one of the key scientists who advised military leaders on weapons during the last war. He was director of the Office of Scien- tific Research and Development and also advisor to the Joint Chiefs of Staff. "The way to defend against an atomic bomb" he said, is to stop the airplane or other carrier before it gets to the target, to boNb the place that is manu- featuring it."
 Bu said the same would apply to the projected hydrogen bomb on which this country is working. There is mo trick way" to do 1t, he emphasized.
 He added, however, that defense against new weapons develop so quickly it is dangerous to forecast l effectiveness.
 But he said he knows of no way to set off an enemy's atomic bomb ! or any other kind of a bomb on it's way to a target.

NGTON-Caught in a cob- web of red tape is surplus B-17 that three organizations claim, that wasn't supposed to fly, and that somehow disappeared from the Wadesboro N. O., airport. The in- cident illustrates the manner in which the Army sells surplus planes for $350 if used for educational purposes. Then sometimes they are resold to foreign powers for as much as $25,000
 This particular R-17 was last re- ported in the custody of the Babb Company at Newark, N. J., air. port. This company, which sells to foreign governments, won't say where the mysterious plane is now, even though it claims full own ership. Ownership is also claimed, however, hy the Civil Air Patrol of Charlotte, N C., which wants to give the plane back to the Air Force. MeanWhlle, the MarK 1uru Mapping Company of Minneapolis, Minn., is waiting with priority to buy the controversial B-17.
 For two days the Air Force post ed guard around the grounded bomber, but quickly retreated under legal fire and now wants nothing more to do with it. An Air Force spokesman suggested it is a mat ter for the War Assets Admins tration. But the duties of war as- sets have been taken over by the General Services Administration which in turn claims that legal responsibility for the B-17 rests

COVER NOR SAYS RESERvATEON PLAN
 E OBSTRUCTIVE"

Governor Ernest Gruening today termed the rlan to create reSer- vations for Alaska natives wholly destructive"
 Speaking to the Chamber oi Commerce at it's noon luncheon ln he Gold Room of the Baranof Ho- ,sl. Governor Gruening said he could not see how anyone would get any good out of the reserva- ion plan.
 He was scheduled to talk on lis recent trip to Washington, D. C.. from which he returned Sat urday, but instead he sopke on the reasons behind his trips to Washington.
 He said: "When the Governor -oes to Washington, D. O., he real ly becomes a lobbyist, lobbying as effectively as he can for bills III the interest of Alaska which may be before Congress or showing promise of coming up, and working against action which would be det- rimental to the Territory"
 He pointed out that one of the things he had worked against on his last trip wcs the reservation plan.
 Lacking vuti representation Alaskas representatives, including he lobbying governor, must en- courage the favorable legislation and proposed appropriations ovei the three major hurdles between the departments and agencies where they originate and final ac- ton, he said.
 The hurdles are the Bureau ol Budget, the House appropriations committee, and the Senate appro priations committee, he declared.
 He mourned the lack of voting representation statehood would giv' Alaska, and said that one of thf major problems facing Alaska | it's relations with Washington, D iC.
 He said that although proposal favorable to Alaska may pass ont of the hurdles, it doesn't mean they will not bog down in either tht House or Senate. The proposal o a lodge and facilities in the Gla- cier Bay National Monument northwest of Juneau, has severa times leaped the first hurdle only to stop at the second or third, ht said.
 Alaska Defenses
 His efforts to get defenses fol Alaska are a necessity, he said The costly discontinuation Of de gense appropriations for Alaski during the 80th Congress in th' face of the pleas of military lead ers had made it necessary for him ! civilian, to inject himself into the defense problem.
 He said the move to take the 3oeing plant to Witchita from Se- attle last August, and the oppo' ;ition to the plan in Seattle, lee finally to the realization that de- lenses for Alaska, instead Of change in the Boeing plantsite, wa! the answer. And appropriations fol military housing and an Alaskan radar screen were not shelved, a! was the intention in Washington
 He said a costly interruption II Alaskan defense plans was avoid cd.
 Part of the credit for this h' gave to the noises" made by Alas kans in the press, through column ists and over the radio
 Future plans for lobbying mus include rectifying of the presen situation in which southeast Al aska is becoming "the forgottei part of Alaska" he said.
 Pointing out that the none, which should come to southeast Al aska for roads is being cut $600,OO without authorization, he said
