 By energy" the reported re- ferred mainly to oil prospects and hydroelectric potential.
 Alaska's position as "the hot test wildcat area in the the world today" the report said, is fact "backed up by major oil company commitments for exploration well in excess of 100 million to be spent in the next two or three years"
 Prospects for tourist business that may reach 100 million dol lars annually were said to rest on development of adequate transportation and comfortable accommodations.
 "A combination of private and public investment, the report said, stmay well make tourist gold far outshine the commodity which has contributed most to the terri tory's fabulous reputation"
 AS for Alaska's metals other than gold, the report noted that in the past 25 years, 217 million dollars worth of copper has been mined but 'smost of her iron, mer- curry, nickel, uranium and tin are still in the icebox."
 Referring to the new States scant population, the report con cluded:
 If the federal government finds it possible in the course of the next decade or two to ear mark considerable amounts for Alaskan development, to be allo- cated mainly to providing trans portation, power, aids to agricul- ture, and loans to business, more of Alaska may be transformed into desirable place for human habitation, a d ding pleasure, depth and variety to the culture of the nation" .-..--.

Agriculture, Oil, Tourists, Metals Are Alaska's Potential, Says Fed. Reserve

SAN FRANCISCO, R - Agri culture, energy, the tourist indus try and metals hold vast poten- tial importance in Alaska's future.
 That's the view of officials of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, which devotes II pages of it's latest monthly business re- view to prospects for the 18th State.
 Gold, forests, furs and fish, the older industries of Alaska, s'have either run their course or fairly established they may add to the income and population" the bank reported in what it called "a cold lock- at the new States oppor- tunities.
 Concerning agriculture, the re- port noted difficulties involved and commented that "the wonder is not that agriculture in Alaska has developed so little, but that it has developed at all." But it added: MIKE
 And yet the. land is fertile; some crops to wonderfully well; prices are high with markets as sured; experiment station work is adapting more grains, roots and fruits to produce in 70-odd days of mostly sunshine; hundreds of thousands of acres of lush grass are waiting to produce livestock when slaughter houses, cold stor- age facilities, and roads exist

Education Suffers From Anemia, Says Catholic

BALTIMORE, R - The presi- dent of the nations second oldest Catholic college and seminary says education today suffers from anemia - the beef and iron have disappeared. The sideshows have taken over the main tent" !"
 The R. Rev. Msgr. John L. Sheridan, president of Mount St. Mary's College in Emmiteburg, Md, said:
 "When we get back to the tests that sharpen the mind rather than ersatz diet aimed at devel- oping personality and social awareness, we will find the stu dents will follow eagerly.
 "We may produce fever gad- geteers and tailfin technicians - though even that I. doubt - but we will have removed our insti- tutions from the status of the hot dog stand where every teach CT is a carhop jumping at the beep of every demanding horn."
 Msgr. Sheridan spoke Friday before the Maryland Association of Higher Education and Junior Colleges.

Banfe Downed
 At Cordova By CarburetOr Ice

CORDOVA, R - Defeat was a spoonful of ice for distance flyer Charles F. Banfe Jr. Friday night.
 The 39-year-old commercial air line pilot from Palo- Alto, Calif., was forced down at this Alaskan city Friday night after logging 3,27O miles on projected flight from Tokyo to Miami, a distance of 7,022 miles.
 Banfe, his face etched with lines brought on by 291s gruel- ling hours at the controls of his Mooney Mark 20A aircraft, said ice which formed in the carbure- tor of his engine forced him down.
 He was attempting to crack the nonstop, single engine distance record established August 1 by Pat Boiling, a commercial air line pilot who also lives in Palo Alto.
 Boiling took off from Manila and flew 6,979 miles to a landing at Pendleton, Ore.
 Even as he shrugged, off the weariness of his trip, Banfe was making plans for another shot at Boling's record.
 'T'm going to try it again." he told reporters at. the fog and cloud-shrouded Cordova airport "It will be the same flight, the same plane, Within six months"
 Banfe, who left Tokyo at 5:31 pm. Thursday night, guided his plane into safe landing here as fog and low clouds choked the visibility off to a mere 200 feet.
 "The Cordova tower and radar brought me in through that soup" :" Banfe said. T don't know how else I would have got in. Pm a little jumpy, but I feel fine"
 Banfe, who planned to leave Cordova for Chicago and New York today, had engine trouble three times during his long, lone some flight along the Great Circle route used by commercial air craft.
 Once over the North Paciic his motor ran rough. It cleared up, only to run rough again as he passed over Cold Bay, at the tip of the Alaska Peninsula, at 5 pm.
 Banfe, the father of four chil- dren, radioed at that time that he might have to call it quits and land at Anchorage, but the motor cleared up again and Banfe pressed on out over the white capped surface of the Gulf of Alaska.
 As he approached Middleton Island, a dot of land in the Gulf, the icing carburetor forced his hand, and landing at Cordova. He still had plenty of the 343 gallons of gas with which he left Tokyo.
 Ice was the william.

THE NEW ARTIFICIAL SATELLITE

The launching of an space satellite by the United
states is, without doubt, of great scientific significance,
but 1t should not surprise anyone, since it was absurd, to
say the least, to think that the United Safes would not be
able to put this satellite around the Earth, as Russia did a
short time ago. r.
The circumstance that the SOvietS succeeded in the
test before the United States, had only speculative value
in the psychological field and Russia, evidently, took
advantage of it for the benefit of her international prestige.
But, basically, the launching of the satellite did not
represent a threatening superiority to the United States,
as some would like us to believe.
The immense scientific capacity of this North Anne
rican country, her military and economic power, cannot
be subject to doubts resulting from any progress made in
advance by Russia. of course, there are exceptions, since
an achievement such as the atomic bomb in 1945 was of
decisive character.
1t is certain that the men of science at the service of
Russia will be, the first ones not to be surprised that the
United States has made this launching which belongs, even
with its sensation and novelty, in the field of progress of
contemporary civilization and science.
The United States marches at the vanguard of progress
I'm the modern world, and this constitutes, without doubt,

We have to arrive to the fact
that both in United States as in

ports are paid with the exports in
other words, the importation is the
price of the expectation.
The United States, having one
OF the richest void economies,
has to import much, and to export
in big scale as remarked by an
Assistant secretary of State for
Latin American affairs.
His most snlient point is the ex.

some great production sectors and
their political agents pretend to
ignore, the fact that, in order to
export we have to import.
