Bill for Parkway
0verpdss Faces
More HEARINGS
Measure Calls for
U. S. to Bear Cost
Of SIS Million

Legislation authorizing SIS
million to pay for a grade sep
aration in northeast Washington
needed to connect the city's road
system with Washington -Balti-
more Parkway will be considered
again Tuesday by a House Public
Works subcommittee.
Testimony on the bill before
the subcommittee yesterday was
both for and against the bill.
The overpass would be con-
Structed to carry New York ave-
nue. over tracks of the Philadel-
phia, Baltimore and Washington
abroad a subsidiary of the Penn
sylvania Railroad system.
The bill, sponsored by Repre-
sentative Fallon, Democrat, of
Maryland, would authorize. an
appropriation of SIS million in
Federal funds to be turned over
to the District Government for
construction of the grade sep
aration.
The overpass would be on New
York avenue, which would be
extended to connect with the
Washington Baltimore Parkway
after it comes out of Anacostia
Park.
Financing Report Asked
Subcommittee Chairman Nc
Gregor, Republican, of Ohio,
said after a late afternoon session
of his unit yesterday. he has
asked the Bureau of Public Roads
to submit report on the financ-
ing of the parkway, authorized
by Congress, and now under con-
struction.
He is expecting a report from
the roads bureau as to whether
legislation on the expressway al
located some Federal money for
the overpasS in question.
During the public hearing yes
terday, the subcommittee. was
told the District government
favors the pending bill only if
Federal funds were authorized.
AS explained by Brig. Gen.
Louis w. Prentiss, Engineer
Commissioner, and Corporation
Counsel Vernon E. West. the city
does not want to be burdened
with the entire cost of the over
pass, with the railroad carrying
none of it.
City spokesmen feared the
funds, when appropriated, might
be charged to the city in a Dis
trict appropriation bill.
Pennsy FavOrs Bill.
Frank j. Mccarthy, assistant
vice president of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad, said his firm
favored the bill. He reported
that negotiations were under way
between the District Govern
ment and the railroad on a pro-
posal for the cost of the overpass
to be split evenly between the
District and the carrier.
But he said that, since the
overpass was part of the Federal
highway system-the parkway
neither the railroad nor the Dis
trict should pay any part of the
overpass expenses. It would be
of no benefit to the line, he
emphasized, since it would be
built over regularly established
set of tracks. The railroad, he
conf1ded, could not be forced to
pay for the grade separation.
Already, he pointed out, the
Pennsylvania has lost an esti-
mated 5000 fares a day in COM
muters because of the New Jer-
sey Turnpike's attraction for
motorists.
Objection was raised to the
bill by S. K. Booth, acting solicit
tor of the Bureau of Public
Roads. He declared the measure
was special legislation for
particular case. Such a matter,
he insisted. should be handled
in the national Federal Highway
Act.

Commend Efforts Of Rescue Workers

Mrs. Leone Cook, wife of the hunting accident victim, today expressed her sincere gratitude to the men of the Army for their efforts Wednesday night and to Jim Jensen, Jack Parret, Ray Anderson, Frank Hooper, Der nard Hume, Charles Miller, Ken meth Shane and Officer Roberts, all of Seward, who risked their own lives in recovering the body of her husband. Anderson and Hooper are servicemen who live in Seward and are attached to the Army Recreation Center here.
 Roberts commendation of the Seward and Army men is high. He had no need to call for vol unteers, he said today. These men contacted him upon hearing of the tragedy, and performed a very heroic service as matter of course, which, Roberts stated, he has found to be the pattern of life in Seward as proven so many times in the past and in recent months.

Wilson Death Held To Be From Natural Causes

A coroners jury Thursday af- ternoon gave a verdict of death from natural causes in the in quest held on the sudden death of Harold w. Wilson Tuesday, October 27, at about ' pm. in the small boat harbor here.
 Frank Robinson testified that at about ' pm. he and Wilson had gone to the harbor to get some machinery parts off the wreck of the Winabob. Robinson was unable to find the piece, and Wilson, knowing just where it was, went aboard with flash light while Robinson stayed ill the truck. When Wilson did not return immediately Robinson again boarded the boat and found Wilson lying on his back with the flashlight still lighted beside him. Knowing that there was something wrong with Will son, Robinson called for help from a nearby boat, and Steve Harcadich helped get Wilson out of the boat and into the pickup truck. They took him immedi- ately to the hospital, where Dr. J. E. Deisher pronounced the man dead.
 That Wilson had been suffer- ing from heart trouble for some time was definitely known and a box of pills with an thrilled prescription, found in his rooms indicated definite condition, according to Dr. DeiSher, who also stated to the jury that there was no evidence of violence on the body, and that it was his opinion the man had died of a heart attack.
 Harold Wilson was born Au- gust 19, 1911 at Mulvane. Kan sas. He was a veteran of the US. Navy, and received a 33 per cent physical disability al lotment from the Veterans Blu reau.
 He is survived by his mother, Mrs. Sadie E. Michael of PhOe- nix, Arizona, a brother and a daughter, whose whereabouts are unknown here. Burial will be in Seward but funeral ar engagements have not been an nounced to date.

AIosko Board Of HeoI+h Adopts
 New Regulations

The Alaska Board of Health took action on a wide variety of health matters at it's annual meeting this month in Juneau. Minutes just received were com piled in Juneau and distributed for public information.
 Among items adopted was the 1853 revision of the US. Public Health Service Milk Ordinance and Code with adaptations for application in the Territory.
 With the intent to insure safe milk for Alaskan consumers, whether of domestic milk supply or imported, the regulation ap- plies to: the production, trans portation, processing, handling, sampling, examination, grading, labelling, regarding and sale of all milk and milk products sold for ultimate consumption within the Territory of Alaska, the in spection of dairy herds, dairies and milk plants, the issuing and revocation of permits to milk producers and distributors.
 Further information regarding the newly adopted regulation is available from the office of the Commissioner of H a [ h, Jul neau. Dr. Albrecht explained that this regulation is essentially the same as that now in force. It merely moderniZes and brings the code up to date with Al aska's needs.
 School Health
 Various phases of the school h ealth program which was worked out comparatively by the ADH and Dept. of Education, were reviewed. These included a new school health record form, a teachers preliminary guide and tuberculosis testing pro gram, and a draft of school health manual.
 The Board also reviewed and approved a health examination schedule which provides for physical examination of pupils upon entranc e to the first, fourth. seventh and eleventh grades and upon entrance for the first time in any Alaskan school.
 The Board approved use of Federal funds available on a matching basis for hospital and health center buildings at Cor dova, Glenallen and Homer. They also reviewed fiscal mat ters of the Alaska Department of Health and approved an in crease in daily rates which may be paid by the Health depart ment for patients hospitalized under it's programs. Hospitals in the First Judicial [ Division were increased from S8.50 to S9.50 per day. New rates author ized in the other three divisions are from S11.90 up to S13.50 and at ward Sanatorium from S3.40 to S10.00.

A.S.C. Announces
 Continued Service

Alaska Steamship Company weekly passenger sailings to Southeastern and Southwestern Alaska will continue from Se- attle through the month of De cember, H. N Peterson, com pany general traffic manager, has announced.
 This is made possible by the extension of the Military Sea Transportation Service agree ment with the company for the carriage of passengers through that month," Peterson said
 MSTS has contracted for The Alaska Line to transport 470 passengers in December with the possibility of 100 additional. The initial contract for October and November made it possible for the line to project its regular weekly passenger vessel sched- ule through those months. Other wise because of the magnitude of increases in operating costs this service would have been in terrupted for the winter for the first time in over fifty years.
 Tt is hoped" Peterson said, that we will be able to work out an agreement to handle MSTS passengers through April, 1854. That will give maximum assurance that there will be no interruption in passenger serv- ice prior to the inauguration of next summers tourist schedule which will be announced short ly."

ALASKAN INTEREST GOES TO THE FAR CORNERS

Interest in Alaska is growing steadily as indicated by record number of inquiries received by the office of the Alaska Visitors Association in Juneau during the past month.
 A total of BIT letters were an sWered between September 15 and October IS, according to Mary B. Barrer, AVA's exccu- tive secretary. Responses were widespread, coming from all corners of the world. In addi- tion to US. and Canada, there were requests for information on travel and vacations from Argentina, Spain, Cuba, Eng land, Netherlands, c m n y, Iraq, Indonesia and India
 Accounting for a substantial number of the inquiries was a special series of ads telling of the beauties in Alaska during September and October. These were placed in newspaper travel sections in Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, and the west coast edition of the Wall Street Journal. The series was part of a coordinated Fall cam paign run in conjunction with transportation companies serv- ing Alaska.
 All letters asking specific questions are answered by per sonal letter, and those asking for folders or maps are sent the exact material they desire" Mrs Barrer explained.
