PAGE FOUR - war, many of which can be used at least for cargo carrying, and it becomes evident that our mushroom aircraft industry faces a crisis when the last shot is fired. It may be that the Government will take over some factories which it has financed and use them to build military and naval planes on its own account, just at it now builds naval vessels in its own yards. This will insure an adequate supply of Government- owned aircraft, but it is no help to private industry. Though we must maintain production at its present level so long as there is an enemy in sight, there is no doubt that the time to cushion the inevitable blow is now. Some such body as the Civil Aeronautics Board ought to sit down and formulate a policy which will anticipate future problems, give the private in- ventor, engineer and manufacturer a chance and keep alive an industry that had to flower too rapidly for its own good in meeting the exigencies of a devastat- ing war.

NATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, 1411 Pourth Avenue Bidg., Seattle, Wash. Shortage of Doctors (New York Times) Under its modified ruling the Army has reduced its quota of medical and dental students by 50 per cent. Instead of allocating 5600 trainees to these of obtaining occupational deferments for students, this to be admitted. Coupled with the growing difficulty W. C. Rappleye, Dean of the College of Physicians and reduction may prove serious. In the cpinion of Dr. Surgeons, the enrollment of students in our medical schools may drop by one-third, with a corresponding decline in the number of graduates. Within three years the country may experience a declded shortage ous, as qualified doctors will be needed during the in physicians and dentists. That may prove danger- post-war era not only in this country but abroad. Facing a smaller student body, the medical schools are now planning to return to their former practice of admitting freshmen once a year instead of once every nine months as at present. This will still further reduce the total number of graduates that will be available for future service. Every effort should be made to safeguard the medical students, while at the same time the authorities must look to the future. As Dr. Rappleye points out, under the pressure of the manpower shortage it may be im- possible to secure deferments for civilian students to enter the medical and dental professions. It takes three years at present to train a doctor; that may seem like a long way off when the call comes for the local draft board to fill its quota each month. But unless a sufficient supply of civilians is permitted to enter the medical schools, the country faces a shortage of doctors. THE PLANE INDUSTRY’S FUTURE oy Before the war fewer than 350 planes carried all aviation passengers and cargo in this country. What of the future? The factories are producing over | 10,000 planes of various types a month. It seems i_mpmbnblc than more than 1,000 commercial planes will be in service here for some years aiter; peace comes. Nor are the immediate possibilities of inter- national travel any brighter. If, according to the prediction of Edward Warner, an eminent authority, | 600 persons travel each day between Europe and North America from fifty to a hundred planes would be sufficient to handle them, depending on the carrying capacity. Consider also the huge number of Army airplanes which the Government will sell after the DO T NEWS q ‘dcslgnaled by the Douglas City| GLAS | Council as “Cleanup Week.” All| | property owners and residents are| asked to do their part in making| the city a healthful place to live by | cleaning the:wr yards, painting and SOUTHBOUND TOMORROW | fixing.

HEART AND HOME: As noted| careers end, new leaders will gain fame before autumn. Women will prove their ability to assume high positions in public service. In th@i field of diplomacy they will achieve | |recognition and success. | BUSINESS AFFAIRS: In the wartime whirligig persons belonging to the learned professions will take a back seat as men and women of |technical knowledge and business {training attain high places in. poli- ities and finance. NATIONAL ISSUES: Efforts to transfer generals or admirals to the political arena will be unfortunate this year. Among candidates for |the office of President, a man who |has traveled fary written a popular 1book and talked incessantly on pub- | lic affairs is likely to be disappoint- | ed in his ambitions. The stars seem to presage for him persistent prom- inence which goes unrewarded. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: Although April has been a month of severe fighting, the United Na- tions will find that May brings ex- traordinary conditions even more iexal:ting than those of the past. |Hitler is to meet defeat only aftel" (he has attempted- desperate and barbaric measures.

The homne is to become of great import- ance as wounded veterans return to their families. ! BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Despite |the confused situation in trade and commerce, business will proceed as| iin 1943.

INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: Portents of controversy in Great Britain presage exciting scenes in Parliament. Impulsive acts by leading statesmen and hasty words will injure India’s chances of lib- erty and will cause anxiety in the United States.

THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA 20 YEARS AGQ {‘ronE EMPIRE e e e e P b S APRIL 29, 1924 Up to mid-afternoon this day the primary election locally had drawn ! out the lightest vote of any election, primary, general or municipal in years. Up to 3 o'clock only 313 votes had been cast in all of the three | precincts. A trip to Mendenhall Glacier, visits to points of interest abcut town and a party at Douglas the previous night featured the final day of the stay of visiting contingents to the Southeast Alaska Inter-School Meet. All of the contestants left for their homes pleased with their visit and enthusiastic over the meet as a continuing event annually. To visit a number of the smaller communities in this district. many of which he had not had an opportunity to see during his administration, Gov. Scott C. Bone left on the Biological Survey boat Sea Otter for a cruise of a week or ten days. The Federal District Court term at Ketchikan was to end this week and members of the party still there were to return to Juneau on the steamer Queen the latter part of the week, according to U. S. Attorney A. G. Shoup. To secure coal, ship’s supplies and provisions, the Coast Guard cutter Unalga arrived in port from her annual seal patrol through the district. After coaling, the cutter was to sail on her cruise to Prince William Sound, the Alaska Peninsula and Pribilof ‘Tslands. Wallis George, of the Juneau Cold Storage Company, returned home after an absence of 30 days in Seattle on company business. While there he purchased additional equipment for the local plant.
