Russians May Build
1900 Fast New Subs,
Naval Yearbook Saws
By the A.,oeioted pre,,

| LONDON, Dec. ia British
naval yearbook reports Russia
believed to have no fewer than $40
submarines in service-has drafted
plans to build 1000 speedy new
subs.
The authoritative James Fight
ing Ships said in a new edition
issued yesterday that 100 of the
new craft are already under con-
lstruction.
The huge underseas fleet will in
lclude one mine laying type with a
Submerged speed of rs knots.
James said.
The new subs were reported be-
ling equipped with the German
developed Schnorkel breather tube,
which will permit them to operate
for indefinite periods without sur
facing.
Data Hard to Get.
James acknowledged that in
formation about the Russian Navy
lis difficult to obtain. but said data
from reliable sources indicates the
Soviet program of new construc-
Ition also includes three battle
ships. 20 cruisers and 100 destroy
ers.
Again the yearbook presented
with reserve" what it termed per-
sistent reports that the Soviet
Navy in recent years has been
building from 'one to four battle
ship of a new powerful type"
Similar reports were published
by James last year.
1t said the new battleships were
reported to be of $4,000 to As, 900
tons, 785 feet long, and carrying
two batteries of guided missiles in
addition to six to nine 16-inch
guns and two dozen 5.5-inch guns
of a new model.
Aerial Torpedo Towers.
James said the ships are "Said
to be equipped with one or two
catapault towers for firing radio
controlled aerial torpedoes. also
rocket-f1ring apparatus and radio
controlled guns"
James said the ships are re-
ported named the Sovyetski Soyuz
(Soviet Union). Strana Sovyetov
Country of the Soviets). SOVIET
skaya Byelorossiya (Soviet White
Russia) and Stalinskaya Konsti-
tuzia Constitution of Stalin).
There has been mention of a
fifth ship, the Rossiya or Russia
it said. but that this may be the
Strana Sovyetov renamed.
James said its informantS re-
ported the SovyetSki Soyuz was
commissioned in June. 1850, ano
carried out trials that summer
These sources added that the bat
tleship is manned by 1875 officers
and men.
May Have Rebuilt Zeppelin.
The year book said the Russians
are believed to have rebuilt the
former German aircraft carrier
Graf Zeppelin for use as a guided
missile test ship.
It said they also have resur-
rected a 1,350-ton British frigate
the Lark, which the Royal Navy
abandoned as beyond repair after
Ishe was torpedoed on the Arctic
convoy run February II, 1914.
Britain which now has only SO
submarines. has been forced by
the Russian underwater menace
to concentrate on the develop
ment of U-boat killer ships. James
said.
AS part Of this program, she has
converted two destroyers into
antisubmarine escort frigates, has
started converting five more and
plans in all to convert As.

Mayor Carl Meier got out his trucks. So did city council mem- bers who had trucks. Steve Ward and Jan Koslosky sent workers to aid the city fathers. They cart ed the pipe and laid as much as they could cram through in the day. Then contractors took over to finish the job-McKechnie took in his equipment to bulldoze the trail, lay remaining pipe and weld the connections.
 Light weight Normandy Beach" steel pipe was laid over the 2,700 feet between the new feeding creek and the Coop line.
 Problem arose when some of the pipes seemed to be clogged. Under prodding the pipes, long unused, disgorged a big stick and several beer cans. One pipe had a bullet hole which was quickly welded! Cleared and cleaned, the lines now are declared pure to carry full city water supply.
 The gift of pipe from the Alas ka Railroad was $500 feet, en- ough for a second line should it be needed or when there is time to lay it. The extra lengths of pipe have been stored in Mayor Meier's pea patch, with damage to peas but not to the pipe.
 Coop Cooperates
 The gift from the Alaska Rail- road solved the problem of both city council and Coop as where
Valley frontiersman., 1951-06-15

to obtain pipe for the extension, E. R. Brock, chairman for the Matanuska Valley Farmers Co., operating Association, represent ing the Coop, accepted delivery of the pipe, gave approval to the temporary line, and agreed to have the Co-Op-owned pump available to apply the water pres sure.
 Under the agreement, still in the hands of the attorneys for final drafting, the Coop bears the costs of the extension line and will divert 25 percent of gross re- ceipts to meet those costs, raising water rates if necessary. The city will pay the difference between costs of the line and water-rate income charged and collected by the Coop.
 So, people of Palmer now may turn on their faucets and hope.
 Water level is low. The Coop tank is about empty. The newly tapped creek supposedly will SUD- ply about 302,000 gallons, every 24 hours.
 The line which is laid is tenn porary. A permanent line must be laid underground.
 But at least the city fathers, in almost nightly sessions with the Coop, have reached the agree ment and done the work, and have laid the pipe Ion the line".

Construction Rushed On Paimer's New
 Complete Food Centef

Construction and remodelling are going forward to convert and expand the Shamrock Bakery in- to an all-department market, opening in Palmer about June 30.
 Name chosen is the Palmer Food Center.
 Equipment from the former Shamrock bakeshop has been moved back into the new addition to the building. This week par titions will be torn out to give way to streamlined counterspace and departments. New lighting fixtures and neon sign are be- ing installed.
 The complete "self-contained" bakery is running now and will continue with it's usual service, even while building and renova- tions are going on. It will con- tinue as one of the major depart ments of the new Palmer Food Center. :.~.. ..~:..~.....
 ."'We feel the name Palmer Food Center is appropriate because we will operate a complete food mart shop, Nels Stensland said today.
 MT. and Mrs. Stensland will di- rect operation ot the new all-de- pertinent market, and a food store manager with experience both Outside and in Alaska will han dle those departments.
 Remodelling and installation of ultra-modern equipment are be- ing rushed so that all depart nents will be ready for a gala opening. " '''' '* ,: '

ADDITIONAL LAND FOR CITY PARK

Site of the famous old Palmer Trading Post at the end of the Matanuska Bridge, was offered by C. c. Erik last night to the City Council for Park, with an additional strip reaching to the river.
 "The land is being surveyed and when that is finished I will give the City of Palmer a deed", Erik, white-haired but swift spoken, told the council.
 He told of how he homesteaded on the land 20 years ago as the finest spot in the Valley". The land adjacent reaching to the river he purchased more recently so it could not be despoiled "by any joint". Through the years. he said, it has been his dream someday to give the land for the

 In Alaska, the editors had their choice of assorted tours. The group who will visit Palmer today chose to headquarter at Mt. Me Kinley Park Hotel.

 There they were to join the party who chose to see the Ke- mai Peninsula, and also those who remain aboard ship at Seward.
 In Palmer, no formal program was set.
 Two points the editors wanted to visit in their moments in Pal mer were the Coop creamery and the thing which always hap pens to newspapermen anywhere, anytime, the local newspaper THE VALLEY FRONTIERSMAN.
