Interior To Ask 2,SOO Square Miles For Game Refuge

ANCHORAGE, tR m Two huge western Alaska land withdrawals, covering the main breeding grounds of ducks on the Pacific flyway, are about to be announc- ed by the Interior Department, the. Anchorage Times said today
 The flyway is one of the na- tion's four important migratory bird flight courses. The area, the Times said, is one that has been considered geologically possible" for oil reserves and field parties for major oil companies have been working there this year.
 One reserve will be on the mainland northeast of Nunivak Island, in the Boring Sea, cover ing 1873 square miles and the other on the shores due east, cov- ering 1,054 square miles.
 Tn all, total of 1871, ,36O wild erness acres of coastal tundra west of Bethel, near the mouth of the Kuskokwim River, cover ed by many lakes and swamps, would be set aside as refuge. Mainly, it lies around Hagen Bay, just north of Nelson Island. The Times quoted Holger Lar sen, of the Fish and W1ldlife Service:
 We want the land set aside as a refuge so we can ask Congress for funds to improve the breed ing area"
 The Times account said it was understood the order will forbid any public use of the land, which would prevent mining, oil explor- ation, homesteading and other uses and would indicate that natives and Eskimo's privileges would be restricted.
 But Larsen, the Times said, asserted there was no intention to prevent the areas development.
 "We do want to control it's use, So that the breeding grounds will be protected" he was quoted.

Senate To Hold
 Hearings on Alaska Shipping Problems

SEATTLE, R - Alaska trans portation problems will be the subject of hearings to be held here and in Alaska cities this year, Sen. Magnuson O-Washl announced today.
 Alaska shipping and the possib- ility of re-establishing ocean pas senger service to the territory will rank high among the sub jects his Senate Interstate. and Foreign Commerce Committee wants to investigate, Magnuson said.
 Air, rail and highway problems will also be discussed. No date has been set for the hearings but the Washington senator thinks they will be held early in the fall.
 Asked if he saw any possibility of re-establishing ocean passenger service between Seattle and AL aska, Magnuson replied:
 Were going to have to do il sooner or later. Those people up there can't go on relying on air transportation only"
