An almost human" dummy with
metal, plastic and fiberglass bones
developed to conduct tests on a
humans bone structure has joined
the Air Force.
The Air Research and Develop
|ment Command disclosed today
that its scientists at Dayton, Ohio,
ARE conducting a series of tests
|on the effects of accidents on the
bones Of the dummy in the hope
of preventing fractures and broken
bones of pilots in accidents.
Men always have been willing
to risk their bones as volunteers
in Air Force tests, but there are
limits to what they may be asked
to do and that's where the new
dummy comes in" said an an
nouncement.
Anatomically correct in body
mobility, weight. distribution of
weight and the body as a whole.
the dummy can assume the same
positions as human being and
was designed to represent meas
urements of a muscular 200-pound
man.
The dummy is built around a
metal, nylon and ball joint spinal
column. The arms and legs move
like q humans through a cylinder
and sleeve joint arrangement but
has only three ribs made Of "a
inch metal stock.
The collarbones - the most.
easily fractured in human beings
will snap just as those of a
human would and his vinyl plastic
foam "skin" will show the effects
of cuts and abrasions.
After a collarbone breaks, )"
technicians can study or replace
the fractured member simply by
opening a Upper in the shoulder.
The skin is slightly tougher
than human flesh to make up for
the lack of muscle tension, ten
dens and cartilage. The degree of
resiliency was determined through
tests at the Sere Medical Labora-
tory at Dayton with a barometer
developed there. That device
measures the depth Of penetra-
tion of small discs on various
parts of the human body.
The collarbones were built on a.
metal core coated with plastic
compound and wrapped with bias
cut strips of fiber glass cloth.

WickerSIaU1e Day 1Odl0y; AEasIcu's Ral,Icisg Citizen

2 "This court is required to hOld it's sessions in public and l respect fully request that no member of the Bar shall in my private office, or any other place, except in the court room or in the presence Of the opposing counsel, speak to me at any time upon any matter con- nected with litigation in this court; I will be in court publicly every day and I earnestly request that no member of the Bar Will presume upon my good nature by trying to engage me in private conversation in relation to any matter pending before me-"
 This was plain language and when Wickersham spoke he meant what he said and was ready to make his word good
 While James Wickersham was stern and inflexible, and never fall ed to let others know where he stood, he saw things in their true relation he was considerate of the feelings of others. He was possessed of a strong sense of public duty in the discharge of which he never faltered. For 39 years he gave all he had to the people of the land which he had made his home. After serving as district judge for almost eight years he rendered his resignation to Presl- dent Theodore Roosevelt, with the intention of engaging in the practice of law at Fairbanks.
 Delegate Terms
 Immediately thousands of his ad- mirers urged him to run for Delegate to Congress in 1908; he did so and was elected to that office by an overwhelming majority. He served seven terms; during this period he secured passage of numerous mea- sures, among them the act providing for construction of the Alaska Rail- road and establishment of the Alas ka University.
 After completing his work. he set tied in Juneau and devoted most of his remaining years to writing All aska history and his memoirs, a work he dearly loved.
 From the day he first set foot on Alaska soil in 1900 until the final summons came to him in 1889, he remained a citizen and inhabitant of the Territory which he had learn ed to love. He became and died an Alaskan. I have not changed my mind as to what place the historian will assign to him in the future. HaV- ing nominated him last year as AL aska's foremost citizen in the first half of the Twentieth Century I now confirm that nomination.

Congress ExpIodes
 | With Truman Blast

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24- Rl - President Truman's delayed blast at what he called the three worst provisions" of the new economic controls law has touched off a series of explosive moves in Congress.
 Three Republican Senators, Ferg- uson (Mich), Nixon (CaliD and Welker Qdaho), accepted MT. Tru- mans tartly-worded economic mes sage to Congress yesterday as a political challenge.
 Expressing doubt that the Pre- sident sincerely wanted controls en- forced, they quickly introduced a bill to repeal the three provisions the President disliked.
 The Senate Banking committee, after a hurriedly- called and report edly heated closed-door meeting, agreed to public hearings next Thursday and Friday on the repeal proposals.

By HENRY RIDDEN

On August "A, 1912 President Taft approved the Act of Congress which provided for the establishment of a full territorial form of govern ment for Alaska. The bill had been introduced and it's passage through both Houses of Congress ably man. aged by James Wickersham. then Alaska's delegate to Congress. It was on the anniversary of his birth day that the President signed the measure.
 James Wickersham was born in Illinois in 1857; he studied law and in 1880 was admitted to the bar of that state. He came west in the early sos and established himself in Tacoma. Soon he became that cltys legal representative and conducted considerable important litigation. In 1898 he was elected member Of the Washington legislature.
 It was on June 6, 1900 that Presi- dent Mckinley approved the Act of Congress which extended the CIVIL government in Alaska and author ized the appointment of two addi- tional judges for the northern, por- tion of the Territory.
 On the recommendation of friends
 
 as well as foes the President ap- pointed Wickersham judge of the Third Judicial Division, an area taking in some three hundred thou sand square miles. practically the same area now making up the third and fourth divisions.
 Court At Eagle
 There was then no Fairbanks and he headquarters of the court were established at Eagle, on the Yukon River about 100 miles below the Xlondike's famous mining camp hen at the height of it's boom. It vas from this point that the vigor- JUS, newly appointed district judge ct it be known that justice would oe meted out in accordance With aw and without regard to political )r other influence. In that respect ne made his position particularly clear when he was directed by the attorney general of the United States to leave his own Division and proceed to Nome in the Second Divi- sion where corrupt and ineffect- ual judge had prostituted his office and condoned, if not actually parti- cipated in depriving miners of their rightfully acquired properties. One morning in the late fall of 1901, when he opened court in Nome he addressed the assembled lawyers thus;
