SURVEY OF ALASKA'S FOREST RESOURCES

Delegate Bartlett has called for survey of the forest re- sources in Alaska through legis- lation introduced this week in the House.
 The measure would include Alaska and other territories and possessions in a bill enacted in 1928 providing for nationwide survey of national forest re- sources in the continental United States. The inventory in the States, carried on since 1880 to obtain information as to avail able timber resources, has cover- ed more than 70 percent of the total forest land area of the United States Exclusive of the territories and possesSion), and since 1946 about 90 million acres have been reSurveyed

 Anyone fortunate enough to visit an Alaska salmon cannery cannot help but be impressed with the scenes that are constantly enacted there and at other such canneries throughout the territory. To ac-. tually work there and thus be a part of the great Alaska salmon industry Is an awesome and un- forsettabIe experience. There is something gratifying in being part of the steady march of prog ress that is bringing salmon into millions of homes everywhere.
 This is not a mechanical march of progress, but rather living overture to humanity, throbbing with the lives of thousands of men and women, and played to the tune of millions of dollars. It opens softly with the seiners and tenders coming in sight after reaping the rich harvest of the sea, swells to a mighty roar with the canning of the fish, and fin- ally dies away to g faint echo with the steamer sailing away, loaded with thousands of cases of salmon - sailing away to bring the fruits of the Alaska salmon industry into all the world-canned salmon, our greatest food from the sea.

Through the years the Alaska salmon industry has played an important part in the development of the territory. Its operations have furnished employment to many thousands, and it's taxes have paved the way for the steadily increasing prosperity that Alaska has enjoyed ever since 1867.
 The industry has also played a major role in the steady march of progress that has brought tho delights of Alaska salmon into millions of homes the world over.

Since the end of the Pales-

no important or substantial

though the ex-Mufti had lost

A Moslem authority tells the

After the ex-Mufti arrived in
Egypt, the pudgy King Farouk
reluctantly granted his protec-

OflcerS IN charge OF the Uni
verSity of Maryland ROTC
unit have been making a stren-
uous effort to recruit cadets to
meet a shortage of pilots, bonn
bardiers and navigators.
Chief Warrant Officer r. D.
Casten, public information Off
Ger of the Maryland unit, said
only six cadets out of 81 sched-
uled to be commissioned in the
Air Force next month have
agreed to undergo special train
ing.
officers said they are trying
to find out, in interviewing this
group, along with 800 others who
will complete the ROTC course
in June, why they are un-
willing to volunteer to become
pilots.
Thorough Questioning.
The questioning has been so
thorough that some left the in
terviews with the impression
that, if they did not volunteer,
they would not receive their
commissions and would be sub
ject to the draft.
1t. Col. Douglas M. Peck, COM
mandant of cadets. said no stu
dent will be refused a commits
sion because he declined to par
ticipate in special training.
we, have a contract with these
boys that Is as binding on them
as 1t is on u.s." Col. Peck said.
If they complete the work we
told them they would be re-
quired to do. they will be COM
missioned."
OF the 81 February graduates
who refused to volunteer, it is
believed all will be commissioned,
Col. Peck said. If any are re-
fused commissions. he said. it
will be because their total records
fail to measure up to the stand
ard required.
Only a few of the more than
400 students who will be COM
missioned this year have said
they are afraid to fly, Col. Peck
said. The main reason they de-
cline to volunteer is that they
would have to spend four years
on active duty. two more than
other ROTC graduates will serve.
All Air Force ROTC.
The Maryland ROTC unit
is all Air Force and is the largest
in the country, training 5000
students. In charge is Col. Jo-
seph r. Ambrose, professor of
military science and tactics.
All male students who meet
physical requirements must take
two years of ROTC training.
After the first two years. a
student may volunteer for the
advanced course of another two
years, making him eligible for a
commission. About 870 students
are taking the advanced course.
Students in the advanced
course are deferred by selective
service In return. they agree to
spend two years on active duty
with the Air Force after they are
commissioned second lieutenants.

Board of Commissioners were

Senator Case has been repre-

for Walter L. Fowler, veteran

Earlier today, however, it was

had not committed himself as a

Both Senator Case and Mr..

mentary of the knowledge and

Mr.. Mcconnell, new chairman

advocates.
