CIVIL DEFENSE PROGRAM SLOW
Friday. January 5. 1851

In view of the present international situation the Government of the United States has recommended 900 civil defense program for the next three years.
 The present plan is to encourage the states to enter into compacs for the exchange of firefightng equip ment, ambuances, police forces, etc., in the event of enemy attacks The agreements would be subject to the approval of the Director of Civil Defense in order that there could be uniformity that workers rushed from state to another would know exactly what they supposed to do who would pay and feed them and how the cost ultimately would be shared
 In addition, the estimates include $2250,0 900 for communal shelters able to withstand atomic attack This expense would be shared by the Federal Govern ment, State and local governments State and local gov ernments would also be expected to deray costs of ad nnstration and personal equipment for volunteers tinated at $2O0,OOOOOO and the Federal Government would stockpile medicine pasma etc. at cost of $40O 100000.
 It is not too early for the people of this country to be integently planning to meet the consequences of emy attacks The possibility exists that, if begns enemy bombing planes will be able to penetrate into United States and drop their explosives in the heart of metropolitan It would be foolish to wait until the catastrophe to make plans to meet the gency.

FISHERIES PROTECTION

All Americans should become aroused to the necessity of preserving fish industry in making treaty with Japan
 To allow Japanese mother ships near our coasts to catch the fish which pay out large to and then sell it back to imports cheaper than it be produced by American standards of living means ruin to one of the nations leading industries.
 We've already had good example of that in the past in Bristol Bay
 We should become aroused at to the necessity of working out equitable plan for both Japan and the United States.

ROTARY CLUB
THREE-IN-ONE MAN IN TOWN

IN TOWN
 R. E. Sheldon, executive direc- tor of the Alaska Employment Se- curity commission, is also war man-power mobilization head for the Territory, as well as chairman for Alaska of the Presidents com mittee for Nationally Employ the Physically Handicapped.
 At the Rotary Club meeting Thursday MT. Sheldon spoke for nearly half an hour on the sub- jects of Unemployment .Compen- sation, War Man-Power Mobiliza- tion and the greater need for put ting the physically handicapped persons into suitable jobs.
 There are several million physi- cally handicapped persons in the United States and its Possessions, of which Alaska has its quota MT. Sheldon said, and the number is increasing daily, as can be noted from the lists of casualties return ing from Korea, and elsewhere, and if world conditions become too much worse, our very survival may depend upon the number of physically handicapped that are put into defense plants and other essential jobs, in order that our war effort shall not lag and that able-bodied me nand women may be released for more essential du- ties.
 MT. Sheldon also stated that Alaska faces tight labor market this coming season and that sur vey is now being made to deter mine the potential man-power that may be available for this summers operations, more espe- cially among the natives of the Second and Fourth Divisions of the Territory and to determine to what extent this man-power can be used in the areas of Fairbanks, and along the Alaska Railroad and the canneries. It is more difficult to induce workers to come from the States to accept work in Alaska because work is becoming more plentiful in the States and more money is left in the workers take-hOme check at the end of the month in many cases.
 MT. Sheldon intends to recom- mend to his Commission that some provision be made as soon as pos sible to assist unemployed work CTS in this area in applying for un- insurance and to check on those who may, through lack of knowledge or wilfully, be the law.
 MT. Sheldon is planning to leave for his Juneau headquarters, via Fairbanks with Wien Airlines on Saturday.

Palmer Moose Meet Anchorage Eagles In Inifiui Hi-SchooI Contest Here

The first eager contest of the Railbelt League 195l-52 schedule is expected to fill the local gym nasium to capacity when the Pal mer High School Moose meet the Anchorage High School Satur- day evening, December l.
 The doors open at 7:15 pm. and Coach Bob Critics warned local fans that there will probably be no empty seats by the time the preliminary contest between the two JV teams begins at 7:30. A whole trainload of people are ar irving in Palmer by special train. Bands from both schools will be on hand, and the Palmer High Majorettes, first in the Territory, are expected to win huge ova- ton from local rooters and visit ors as well. Both teams are equip ped with cheerleaders.
 How many of the Palmer Moose team will be on hand IS a question Coach Critics would like to have answered. Chuck Mills is back after three tough weeks of illness but he is 10 pounds lighter. He may not be able to stand the strain of the game. Gus Klem is the only other experienced man and he'll be 'n there pitching-barring measles, This week Jack McKechnie was
 ut with the German measles, and Monte Larsh went home on Tuesday with very suspicious rash.
 Anchorage has a strong team this year, Coach Critics admits. They have experience on their side and two big bruisers that outmatch anything the Palmer team can offer. BUT, in spite of all the odds against the Palmer Moose, their coach thinks the wis iting team can be beat. It will be a tough battle, though, and floored casualties from both sides can be thankful for the three coats of gym floor lacquer ap- piled by students this week to minimize the splinter risk.
