It is mixed spruce and hemlock but spruce predominates. It will be| used for saw timber for next year's operations, Mr. Heintzleman said. Owing to the preponderance of spruce, the cut will run heavily to clears which find a ready market in the States, and much of it will be shipped there. It is expected it will require virtually the entire scason to log the tract. ALASKA MAKES PROGRESS SAYS GOVERNOR PARKS| (Continued from Page Two) .

Excellent results have been achiev- ed in the prevention of destruction of wild life and in the encourage- ) ment of conservation of fur-bear- ing animals. War on predatory animals, espec- lally wolves and coyotes, has been waged constantly by the Terri- tery, but the means at its disposal are not adequate for the task in- vclved. “The problem is one that requires Federal co-operation. “Three thousand dollars have been contributed by the Biological Survey, but because of the nature | of the work and since the Federal| The Governor emphasized the government contributes to slmilz\r‘nv’cd of an Industrial and Training work elsewhere, an additional ap- |School for the natives in Southeast propriation of $10,000 should be Alaska and for a detention home made available.” |for the native minors.
