The crowd swarmed in an
uneven line across Lincoln

Capitol. 1t blocked traffic on
Thirteenth street and was
formed into winding lines
around the park.

Even as they talked with

All through the night and
long after dawn today, Ameri-
cans waited before the Capitol
in lines, sometimes four miles
long, to MOURN what none
could really comprehend.
Thousands stood in cold
darkness, some for as many as
10 hours, trying through their
silent presence to express the
inexpressible. The temperature
was 80 degrees at $50 am.
Some 100000 succeeded in
passing through the Rotunda
by the body of the murdered
President lying in state.
AS late as l am, people wert
calling from Eastern cities ask

to drive or fly to Washington

ton for the final funera,
marches, thousands still con-
gregated outside hoping they
would be admitted.
About $3.50 am, police began
telling those near the end OF
the lines that they had nc
chance of reaching the Capitol
in time. But still the people
came.
They came in limousines and
in wheel chairs. in brisk ca
dence and on crutches, in eleg-
ant dress and in the sole d
clothes of janitors or service
station attendants who had not
had time to change.

She came first at midday

A chill wind blew down the
Avenue of Presidents yesterday
as a half million people gath
cred to see the body of John F.
Kennedy borne from the
White House to the Capitol
and then as the slain leader
lay in state in the Great Ro-
tunda there.
The people began gathering
early yesterday morning and
their numbers grew through
the noontime. They stood
silently, packed tight to the
building line along historic
Pennsylvania avenue, waiting
for the funeral cortege. Their
mourning was reflected in their
patience.

ray estimated more than $780,.
900 persons eventually gathered
along the Avenue and at the
Capitol later to file through

behind the casket which helc
her dead husband.

The sound of smashing glass

scurrying to investigate.

and erect, staring, seemingly at
nothing. Then Attorney Gener-
al Robert Kennedy stepped out
and led her away.
Shortly after 10 pm, the
slain Presidents mother, Mrs.
Rose Kennedy, arrived to pray
before the body Of her son.
Twice during her prayer, she
raised her head and folde d
hands upward toward the dome
of the Capitol $50 feet above.
Many other famous people
were among the humble who

Ex-BOxer Pays Respects
One of those who came anC
stood in line was Jersey Joe
IWolcott, the former heavy.
weight boxing champion. He
was moving slowly past the
casket alone when a newsmar
recognized him.
He said he had come from
New Jersey and spent nine
hours in line because "he was a
great man."
Despite differences in sta
ton, dress, age, color or natio-
nality, all appeared the same in
countenance and spirit.
There were many families
with small children. In the ear
ly hours of the morning, some
slept on the shoulders of their
parents. But most m a in d
awake and as sombre as their
parents.
Fathers passing the bier
sometimes would shake tn e ir
heads in grief and incredulity.
Now and then, a child would
begin to cry at the sight of a
mother weeping.
Some servicem e n clicked
their heels together and salut-
ed in the most formal military
manner. Others raised their
hands very slowly as if they
almost could not bring them
selves to render a final salute
For some reason. few people
looked back once they had
passed the bier.
A few women walled and had
to be helped from the Rotun-
da; a few collapsed and had to
be c carrie d away. Many held
: handkerchiefs to their eyes.

19O Seafood Plants Process AIaska's Varied Delieacies of the Briny Deep

From north as far as Kotzebue and south through the state, 19O seafood plants were operating in Alaska as of July 1, 1863 according to Department of Health and Vel fare records.
 These include floating canneries, stationary canneries, freezer ships and cold storage plants. Seafood handled by the various facilities include the giant halibut, many species of salmon, crabs, shrimps, and razor clans among other deli cacieS of the deep.
 Final product of each of the op- eratiOns must meet minimum standards set by law and the state Division of Public Health is charg- ed with the responsibility of in- specting the plants to make sure that the standards are maintained. Dr. Edwin WlckS, division director stated.
 He said the seafood products in- tended for marketing are checked for quality, cleanliness, color, taste, texture, odor and general acceptability.
 The premises are inspected for sanitary conditions within and without the plant, adequacy of equipment, adequacy of the process itself. Conditions of the product being pr0cessed and personal hy- giene of the employees are other important factors which must meet standards, Dr. Wicks said.
 Charles L. Jensen, food technolo- giSt, is state seafood sanitarian for the Health division. His head. quarters are in Juneau but his work is coordinated with that of other Department personnel in Alaska.
