THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, FRIDAY, NOV. 6, 1936. tance to aviation along the coast. ALASKA PL‘NES {would. be constructed as an assis- ,‘ Beam Experimentation PILOTS ARE Tfl INCREASE IN 1937 Inspector Hugh Brewster Gives Views — Is Coming Here (Fairbanks News-Miner) “Alaska aviation will have its| greatest year in 1937,” is the opti- mistic prediction of Hugh Brewster, Bureau of Air Comumerce inspector | whose field embraces all Alaska. “Right now,” he added, “we do not need another plane or another | pilot. But I am confident the situa- tion will be such that ‘expansion of both personnel and equipment will be required next year. Continued progress of the mining industry and other developments will, in my opin- Jon, necessitate growth of substan- tial nature.” Came from Anchorage Accompanied by his wife, Inspec- tor Brewster flew from Anchorage last week. He observed lots of snow in the Broad Pass country. The temperature was zero at an altitude of 5000 feet and the lakes below were frozen over, sufficiently, he believes, to support a plane. Ice was running in all the rivers, but none f them was closed. During his stay in Fairbanks Mr. Brewster has been making a rou- tine inspection of planes and mo- tors and looking after the renewal of pilots’ and mechanies’ licenses. He also has conferred with Weather Bureau officials and with Harold Gillam regarding altitude flights ' being made for the bureau by the Gillam Airways. From here Mr. Brewster will re- turn to his headquarters at Anchor- | nge and later he will go to Juneau to carry on routine inspctions there. Great Fuiure “It is noteworthy,” the inspector said, “that not a pilot or a mechanic | in Alaska is unemployed. By that I| do not mean that some have as| much work as others, but all have jobs. We are standing on our own' in Alaska. The Territory offers the frea(est future in the world to the | right kind of people—and that goes not only for aviation but for every- thing else.’ May Grant Funds From another source it is learned that the coming Congress may ap- propriate $2,900,000 for an air de- velopment program in Alaska. It is said that the money would have been made available by the last| Congress had it not been for a| technical objection. It seems the item calling for the approprlauu'l was carried in a deficiency bill and technical objection was made on | the grounds it should have been in | a supply bill. No other objection was raised and hopes are high that | the money will be forthcoming next | spring. Would Give Employment ‘The expenditure would give em- ployment to many persons in the Territory. As drawn up, the pro- gram calls for completion within two years and work could be started in the spring. - Many emergency fields would be built. This work would be under the supervision of the Alaska Road Commission. There is great need mr expan- | sion of first class weather report- ing stations and that need could be met with the appropriation. Beacons would be installed at many points. That phase of the pro- gram would be under the direction of the Bureau of Air Commerce. In addition to airpgets, Whether or not radio beam could be useéd successfully in Alaska is a mooL question, said Mr. Brewster. ern Lights, which are be- hcmd to be active in the daytime, as well as at night; may affect them adversely and other factors are tc be taken into consideration. But if they can be used it is only a matter |of time until they will be used on main routes. “Many more weather reports arc \needed even now. All people who \Ive in outlying places and who can ‘report on the weather should do so, because their reports will be picked up and broadeast. This would be u distinct service to Alaska avia- tion.” 'DR. FINBORG TO TAKE " CHARGE OF HOSPITAL The Office of Indian Affairs hos- pital gt Tanana, which has been without the services of a physician| and’ surgeon since last spring, is to| be in charge of Dr. A, E. Finborg. { Accompanied by, his wife, he is now in Fairbanks en route to;Tan- ana, says a recent Faitbanks News- Miner. They were only a few hun-| dred feet from their future home to- day but had to return here without entering it. Ground fog prevented the plane in which they were trav-| eling from landing. | For the last two years Dr. and| Mrs. Finborg have been on the Prib-| ilof islands, where he cared for the ailments of around 500 natives. The transfer to Tanana was to have been made earlier in the year but the physician relieving Dr. Finborg did not arrive until recently. The need for a doctor at Tanana was lmen so great that the Finborgs stayed only 10 days in Seattle on their first visit there in two years | before sailing for Seward. U. of W. Graduate Dr. Finborg is a graduate of the| ’Um\ersuy of Washington and of ithe University of Oregon Medical School. ! Tuberculosis .is not so prevalent on the Pribilofs, as among the main- !land natives, he said, but rheuma- tism and arthritis are rather com- " mon ailments. Important Hospital | The hospital at Tanana is an im- portant one in care of Interior In- dians. It has between 20 and 30 |beds and a fine surgery. There are |two Public Health nurses and a| staff totaling about a dozen. An |X-ray machine, long needed, was| received and set up during the sum- \mer. 1 Dr. and Mrs. Finborg are taking| with them two little malemute pups gwcn to them by Mr. and Mrs. Den- ,nis Godsil | JUNEAU MlNE WORKERS' WILL HOLD MEETINGS IN 'MOOSE HALL IN FUTUR Juneau Mine Workers Association will hold all meetings in the Moose | | Hall, beginning with the next regu- lar meeting Tuesday, November 10. |Regular meetings of the organiza- tion" are on the second and fourth Tuesdays of each month. Because of the central location of | the Moose Hall, and the high cost of maintaining the heating and| lighting of the A; B: Hall, the change in meeting place was decided upon. | The executive committee appom! ‘ed recently to act until the next | regular election in Deécember con-! sists of ten men.
