WATE SITUATION
 DIS CUcSED AT ( OF (

The local Chamber of Commerce met in the Coop Clubroom Wednesday noon for lunch con. Chirikoff beef was served and it proved to be very palatab1e. There was not quorum present, and no official busi ness was transacted.
 It was reported that the hospital is in need of funds, and that there is over $20, 1000 in unpaid bills. A resolution was adopted asking people who owe the hospital to make payments as soon as possible. The water question was discussed by the Acting Manager of the Coop, Mir .Ras asmus sen {, he stated that the Coop management re- gretted the shortage of water, and that unless. some new method is worked out, we would probably be short for several months He stated that work is being done to pro- cure more water from the limited supply at the intake, but more would probably be needed and unless wells could be developed it seems unlikely that much more water will be available, until the return of nor. nal rainfall.
 Mir. Rasmussen stated that the Coop does not feel that it is their responsibility to finance a larger system as it has enough for it's own use, and only agreed to furnish water on surplus basis. He said, at the time that the present water system was built, about ten years ago, it was ample for the needs of the community at the time and the anticipated future. However, as the demand became larger the Coop has developed more water and the present sup ply produces over a third more water than the original demands.
 He said that in l94o the head authority for the Matanuska Valley Project has stated that, the Valley only had room for fifty

 Earlier the huge bomber with 16 creWmen and an air force lieu tenant colonel aboard, has mes saged that one engine was afire and advised searchers to keep a careful lookout for flares or WreCkage."
 The disappearance of the giant six-motOr bomber was the first loss of this advanced type craft in actual operation. One other was wrecked at Carswell Air Base at Fort Worth, Tex, when the 163- ton plane plunged into lake at the end of a runway in an at tempted takeoff. Other mishaps concerning the B-36's have been of minor nature.
 Gn Washington, the air force identified the passenger as It. Col. Daniel V. Mcdonald, attach ed to the office of plans and op- erations at air force headquarters. He lived at Arlington, Va. The air force said his wife was notified that Mcdonald is missing in flight'O.

in history that atomic energy had
been used for peaceful pursuits.

neer Davydov disclosed before the
Moscow Institute of Energy the
use of atomic energy to blast an
entire mountain to open the way
for man-made river wider than
the English Channel,
