From this point every industrial and min Cral center in the world is read fly available by modern aircraft.
 Alaska has been dependent upon military support since it's purchase in 1862, the General reminded, but he now feels that in few years civilian finance will take over communications, transportation and industry, thus relieving the military of that responsibility.
 General Kcpner hinted that his stay in Alaska is about at an end. He has come to love the country, he said, and would like to be buried in the Brooks River country, which in his mind is the most beautiful coun- try in the world, bar none.

Need 1925
Mothers For
Polio March

The drive is on in East Cleve-
land for women to participate In
the Mothers March on Polio.
Rudy r. Miller, Cuyahoga Coun-
ty campaign chairman for the
March of Dimes, announced yes
terday that total of 1926 women
are needed for one hour on next
January 29th to call on approx
mately 1880 dwelling units here.
Last January the Mothers March
raised approximately $14,8O0 in
East Cleveland.
The Mothers March on Polio, a
March of Dimes activity, will con-
sist of a Commute "porchlight"
campaign like the one concluded
last January to raise funds for the
care of local polio patients and
for research on infantile paralysis,
Mr.. Miller said.
Throughout the county we'll
need a total of 10000 new volun-
teers to call on the lighted homes
and we must have those volunteers
before December 18th in order to
assign them to their own neigh
borhood areas" he continued.
Last year the one-hour drive
netted $441,0O0 for the March of
Dimes to be used in the battle
against polio. "The money was
direly needed, too, because we've
had the worst polio season in our
history. Polio struck nearly 600
persons this year in all sections Of
the county," Mr.. Miller said.
Persons desiring to volunteer
for this Commute drive may do
so by calling Cherry 1-3457 any
hour of the day or evening.
