is THERE SUCH A
THING AS A SPECIAL
LAXATIVE FOR WOMENP

So many women are asking this
important question.
The answer is-yes. A re-
markable new medical dis
cOvery called DiOctyl Sodium
SulfOsuccinate has now made
possible a special new laxative
for a wOman's sensitive system.
We call il COrTectOlO.
COrrectOl works two ways.
First, its miracle ingredient
takes advantage Of the natural
moisture in your system to
soften waste. Second, its mild
laxative acts gently but most
effectively. Working together,
COrrectOPs two active ingredi.
ents give q woman more natural
relief than any ordinary laxa-
tive can.
COrrectOl is recommended
any time in a wOman's life, even
during and after pregnancy.
Try gentle. hospital tested
COrrectOl >. bearing the Good
Housekeeping Seal. Ask your
druggist for COrrectOI.

Three Sfafe Agencies Now Linked by Te|etype Circuit

Just as Alaska's newspapers and broadcasting stations are apprised of fast-breaking news by teletype, so three of the largest state agencies are linked by such a circuit over a thousand miles long.
 This network is leased from the Air Force Alaska Com munication System for eight hours a day and can send a message from Nome to Valdez, for example, in less than ten minutes-including the time required to punch the infor- nation on a perforated tape, and deliver to the addressee.
 According to C. L. Bunk, di- rector of the Division of Con- munications in the Alaska De partment of Public Works, the basic teletype network links the departments offices in An chorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, Nome and Valdez. Three of these five stations also have pony loops" for connecting with other local points. Mes

FEDERAL LAND BANK BORROWERS
 TO GET PRE.CHRISTMAS DIVIDEND

Fifty area borrowers in AL aska can look forward to a pre- Christmas cash gift as a result of the Federal Land Bank of Spokane declaring a 5 percent dividend, payable to it's stock holders of record Nov. 30, 1862, James Hurley, Alaska agent for the bank, announced today.
 Fred A. Knutsen, bank presi- dent, said the dividend, ap- proximately $740,000, will be paid to the 6l farmer-owned federal land bank associations in Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington which own all of the banks capital stock and which make and service its loans. The associations, in turn, will pass most of the dividend on to their 23,000 members who are the banks borrowers.
 knutSen announced the di- vidend payment in addressing a four-State meeting of feder- al land bank association direc- tors in Spokane last week. He said the ) percent-$ $740,000 di-
The frontiersman., 1962-11-01

vidend compares with per cent$535, ,000 dividend D q last year. This years dividend, he added, will bring to $5,649,- 900 the total paid in dividends by the bank since 1914.
 Reviewing operations of the bank for the year ended June 30, 1862, Knutsen told the as sociation directors that new money loaned during that 12- month period was greater than the banks entire loan account 15 years ago. There were 3,369 loans closed for $s1,756,000 of which $46,841,000 was new money. The banks loan ac- count on June 30 stood at $257,- 000,000, up 1412 percent over the same date in 1861.
The frontiersman., 1962-11-01

sages are transmitted directly to the DPW's quarters in all of these cities, but if eommuni- cation is addressed to one of the loop points, it is automati- cally re-perforated, and need only be run through the trans hitting device to be relayed without further effort to it's destination. The hookup is shared with the Department of Highways and the Public Safe Y Departments State Police Division, so different problems are solved by the pony loops" in three of the five cities serv- ed. In Anchorage the second ary circuit is needed to serve the State Police, because the highway agency is in the same building as the Public Works Department, while in Fair banks the separate line goes to the road office, because DPW and the State Troopers are un- der a single roof. Juneau has two of the loops to take in the police in the capital buildings, and the highway headquarters on Douglas Island four miles away. The communication ser vice made possible through this network also is available to other State agencies.
 Most of the messages are per forated before transmission so they can be sent at the sixty Word-a-minute speed which is virtually impossible to attain with acuracy by hand on the electric keyboards. But for an exchange of ideas, a teleconver- sation is possible by operating the teletype machines manu- ally on this statewide party line. Regular messages are tele- phoned to the recipient and confirmation copy is delivered later.
 The transmissions are made by radio-telegraph over the tropospheric forward scatter stations of the Air Force White Alice system. According to Buck, these broadcasts are not subject to fadeout as they blast signals in the very high ire quency band over the horizon to be picked up by giant anten- mas.

Handicapped Are Employed

Special efforts are made tc find employment for the physi. cally handicapped persons ap. plying for work with the U. s ;. Army Engineer District, Alas ka, officials noted in a routine review of employment practic- es recently.
 Thirty six of the Districts staff, or approximately one in every eleven are in some way physically handicapped. The handicapped are hired on the basis of their qualifications and without detrimental regard to their physical limitations.
 The handicapped personnel have proven themselves able associates of the District staff during its 16-year history by assuming positions of consider able responsibility and by per forming their duties in such a way as to earn more than the average number of awards for work well done.
The frontiersman., 1962-11-01

In addition to its teletype loop, the Highway Department headquarters in Douglas has a half dozen trunk lines for long distance telephone calls as il is in the Juneau system. The State Capital Buildings and the Alaska Office Building share with the Foss Building which houses the Public Works De partment, the only PABX cir cult in Alaska. This Private Automatic Branch Exchange permits extension phones to be dialed directly by Juneau sub scribers or long distance oper- ators without having the call relayed by an operator at the buildings switchboard.
 But it is the teletype circuit that spans the three time zones of the nations largest state that receives messages before some employees arrive at work and after others have gone home as well as when they are on the job. The hook-up is operated from eight o'clock in the morn ing until four in the afternoon Alaska Standard Time, so many messages are already prepared for transmission from Juneau when offices open in Fairbanks and Anchorage, while an hour remains in Nome to act on the communications the same day even when they are sent at quitting time in the central part of the State.
 Each agency served is charg- ed a nominal rate for messages and according to Public Works Commissioner Richard A. Downing, the circuit is self sustaining as well as speeding directives and the exchange of ideas.
