ALASKA pILOT-OWNERS

The Civil AeronauticS Board has proposed that present exemp- tions for Alaska pilot-owners from compliance with certain provisions of the Civil Aeronautics Act be extended for a five-year period until Dec. 31, 1856.
 The present exemptions, due to expire on December 31, 1851, al- low pilot-operated small airlines in Alaska to operate without cer- tificates of necessity.
 ''The exemption in question was initially granted and subsequently, extended for relatively short per iOdS because of the Boards desire to keep these operations on a tenn porafy experimental basis,' the notice of the proposal issued this week stated. Experience has shown that there is a need for the services which have been offered pursuant to this exemption. The pilOt-OWnerS have apparently kept their operations within the in tended scope Of the exemption, and nothing has come to the at tentiOn of the Board which would indicate any significant interfer- ence with or prejudice to any of the other forms of air transport services offered in the Territory of Alaska. However, it is believed unwise to grand authority for a longer period than five years, in view of the difficulty of predict ing at this time the eventual air transportation needs of an area which is still in a vigorous stage of economic development"
 The notice furnished Delegate Bartlett called for the written views or arguments of interested persons to be submitted in 'tripli- cate and addressed to the Secre- tary, Civil Aeronautics Board, Washington 25, D. C., to be re- ceived by August 24.

The Grand Jury Should Dig Deeply

Circuit Judge Marbury has instructed the
new Prince Georges County grand jury to "dig
deeply" into reports of gambling and corruption
in the Maryland county. 1t is about time that
grand jury started some deep digging there
County grand juries in the past have been re-
markably content to scratch the surface. Almost
invariably they have found little or nothing
wrong with crime conditions and law enforce
ment in the county.
Excerpts from some of the more recent grand
jury reports will give general idea of what
the scratching has produced. Last October, the
jury announced its conclusion after careful
consideration" that general conditions in the
county are very satisfactory" that law enforce
ment officials appear to be doing excellent
work" and that crime was on the decrease. The
preceding grand jury took similarly optimistic
view, stating: Notwithstanding recent unfavor-
