Rettie, Counselor for the National Resources Planning Beard for this region, who returned Saturday from a trip to Washington, D. C., said today that his office has been actively engaged in economic and technical problems concerning the propesal of building a railroad which would link Alaska with the Continental United States by con- necting with Canadian rail heads. Mr. Rettie said that these prob- iems concerned the relaying of rails for such a road, securing power, building across frozen ground, and the possibilities of se- curing bridge and tie timber. A recent announcement from Washington said that Canadian and Juneau food stores, grocery and meat markets, will be closed next Saturday according to amnounce- ment made today.

Residents are asked to cooperate as they have in the past by seeking shelter as if an act- ual raid were taking place. All members of the Civilian Unit are expected to report to posts. The Juneau Civilian Board emphasizes the importance of everyone cooperating to the full- est extent in carrying out practice alerts. The Board reports that some people in the past apparently have been of the impression that no necessity existed for them to observe the alert. During the last drill, some people the Evergreen Bowl continued Ito play tennis and bnseball instead of seeking shelter as instructed. Said Director Frank A. Metcalf: “The Defense Board has no w. to take drastic action against those who' unwittingly fail to observe the ordinance governing the holding of alerts, but at its recent meeting emphasized its intention to compel! willful violators ‘to comply fully with the emergency ordinance.” ‘Mrs. P.
