Asian Flu Sweeps
 Across Most of Nation

Asian flu and other respiratory ailments sweeping across much of the nation are taking an increas- ing toll in absenteeism, particularly among school children.
 Many schools report large num- bers of pupils absent because of flu. Several have closed as health safety precaution and others are considering suspending classes
 No estimate is available of man. hours lost in business and industry because of respiratory illnesses.
 Hundreds of deaths have been reported.
 Flu of the Asian variety now has been reported in Michigan and Minnesota, and authorities say the outbreak which hit hard in West Virginia probably is Asian flu.
 Previously, the US. Public Health Services Communicable Disease Center at Atlanta had con- firmed Asian flu in the District of Columbia and North Carolina Maryland, New York, Illinois and Kansas.
 A spokesman at the disease cen. ter said if the flu-like ailmen does not begin spreading more swiftly, there is hope it's toll il sickness and deaths will not b, too great before the milder weathe of approaching spring.

Senate Approves $2OO,OOO for Rural Area Development Work Projects

JUNEAU R - The State Sen ate gave unanimous approval, ITO, today to supplemental appropria- tion of $2O0,OOO for Rural Develop ment work projects during the bal ance of the current fiscal year.
 It touched off almost an hour of debate on the value of the pro- gram, with only Sen. Brad Phillips questioning the appropriation.
 Phillips said he would not deny the need for projects of lasting eff feet, but said he felt the projects to be carried out should be pro- grammed in advance, so the leg islature could have some say in how the money is spent.
 The Rural Development program is carried out under the Governors Office, through Robert Hoffman, State Director of Rural Develop ment.
 ''As the program is administered now, it is subject to criticism as a political fund.-"
 After Phillips comments, one member of the Senate after an. other took the floor to point ou specific projects completed under the program.
 John Butrovich, R-Fbks.), sai, the native villages of the stat need "much, much more than w could ever provide.
 "Two hundred million wouldn be enough.
 Some of the S2OO,OOO is goir to be wasted, certainly" ButrC vich said, ''but that will always t the case as long as these program are administered by humans.
 'sBut, with the need existing, couldn't in good conscience vot against this appropriation even i the knowledge that there will b waste"

LIFE JACKET FOUND PRESUMABLY FROM
 MISSING FREIGHTER

MIAMI, Fla. R-A life jacket and debris, possibly from the miss ing SS. Marine Sulphur Queen, were picked up from the Atlantic Ocean today, 14 miles southeast of Key West, the Coast Guard said.
 A life jacket stenciled Sulphur Queen" was taken aboard a Navy torpedo retriever vessel operating in the area, the Coast Guard an- nouncement said.
 The Navy reported other debris floating in the water but said it had not identified anything beyond the life jacket.
 The 523 foot tanker Sulphur Queen left Beaumont, Tex, Feb. 2 on a routine, five-day run to Nor folk, Va, carrying a load of 15,OO0 tons of molten sulphur.
 Despite the fact the tanker car ried two high frequency radio transmitters with emergency bat teries and had a radiotelephone, she disappeared without giving a distress message.
 Search planes flew more than 500 hours over the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic and until today had found no trace of debris, oil slick or other evidence of maritime tra- gedy.

Lights Out''

Monday morning u m e rOu homes in the eastern section O. town were without power for abou a two-hour period.
 What is the most concern, how ever, was the cause of the outage One wire of a primary circuit had been cut in two by a rifle shot. The circuit carried a voltage of 240O volts and supplied a good portion of the east end of town. Both ends of the broken wire were laying on the ground and were energized at full voltage.
 Howard Crinklaw, manager of Nome Power and Light Utilities, stated the following:
 T believe that the individual who was responsible for this should be commended upon his ex- cellent craftsmanship, it is very difficult to be able to hit a wire when it is suspended 35 to 40 feet in the air. What is even more re- IildI hdOlG IS lIioc d lilcll SOUIO dS- velop such high degree of skill with a rifle could, at the same time, be so thoughtless and incon- siderate as to endanger life and destroy property of others.
 At the time this break was To- cated, several children of pre- school age were playing within several feet of the broken con- ductor. It was only by pure chance that one or more of these children had not made contact with the wire. If any child or other person had by any chance picked up, or made solid contact with the con- ductor in all likelihood the results would have been very serious or even fatal.
 "We can stand outages in our home and put up with Lights Out in a material way, but does any one, regardless of how reckless he is, the one who is the cause ot Lights Out" in a child or other individual. The result of actions likes these, could well result in such happening"
