THROUGH THE SENTINEL PERISCOPE
Lumber Industry Arrives
-;.':;'.''

The Iong-awaited development of Southeast Alaska's great lumber industry on a basis adequate to support a year-around economy ap- pears to have arrived Last weeks news of the signing of a contract which assures a 40-million dollar pulp plant for Ketchikan, an nouncement of the re-opening of the Wrangell sawmill with plans for the building of a new plant at the cost of over a million and tEe approval by the National ProdUc- tlon Authority for an S8OO,000 ply wood plant in Juneau provides the brightest industrial picture fer AL aska's panhandle in many years.
 This, coupled with the prospects for another big pink run in the area, foretells not only a good sea- son in the Southeast in 1851 but subsequent years of sound prosper ity based on a 12-month economy. So bright is the showing for a big salmon pack that Fish and Wild life officials after a thorough sur vey opened the season several days early for virtually the entire South east with the exception of a portion of the western disrict, part of southwest Clarence strait and Prince of Wales area.

 He does send his greetings and pIoclaims Sunday to be National Wrangen Picnic Day. He adds on this day WrangeIlites or ex- Wrangellites are immune to arrest by police chief George Kuntz-pro- YIded they don't get caught!
 MrangeIl Chamber of Commerce President Doris Barnes today wired her greetings to Sundays gather ing, and like the Mayor, pointed to the booming times in Wrangen that necessItate her staying here on the job.
 Led by the chief of the Terri torial Highway Patrol, Frank A.

A Long Struggle

It's been a long pull over the years against many obstacles to get the pulp industry started n Alaska. Canadian competition, in reference by a couple of wars, agitation over aboriginal claims with rights to certain forest areas involved all have been potent de- terrents to development of the tim Der industry in Alaska. But those who had faith that one day the Territory's timber resources would be properly harvested have kept consistently at il. Among them is Regional Forester B. Frank HeiHt zleman. For more than a quarter of a century Frank has worked at trying to develop the pulp ind lst-y in this region. Years ago his studies and reports on the Southeast tim Der potential were the best avail able and they have continued to be to this day. Other individuals, gov ernment agencies, chambers of com merce and local communities have boosted and worked for a pulp in- dustry and for a more wide de selop- ment of Alaska's great timber re- sources but when they blow tue whistle on the opening of a pulp mill in Southeast Alaska the man at the cord should be Frank Heint- zleman. He deserves more credit than any single individual for bringing 1t to pass.

Wrang- Janites to Play

Now with Juneaus famed sal mon derby over, and not one Wran- gellite or -Wrangellite, better known as Wrang-Junites, placing higher than the irish lord class, the Wrang-Junites in the Capital City were getting primed for their First Annual Picnic on Sunday, August 5. About 100 strong, not including the honorable mayor of this majestic city on the famed Stikine, ye host of Wrangells e. qually well known hotel and the editor of this peerless family jour- nal, the Wrang-Junites were pre- pared to take over the Aux Bay recreation area come Sunday. If the dignitaries from Wrangell ar- rive, as anticipated, Lou Dvorak of the food committee guarantees there will be a few extra hot dogs, and the refreshment committed (Hanford and Williams) after a lengthy conference agreed to make the cokes high for the visiting firemen, providing Verne wears his formal Mayors attire, Nell his meet-the<boat garb and the editor carries his pica stick.
