NEW WAR VETS NOT AFFECTED BY WMC RULES Dischargee-srflay Be Em- ployed Oufside Man- power Quotas A shot in the arm for mines 1s the likely result of a new determ- ination of the status of World War IT veterans, disclosed today by the office here of the Alaska Director for the War Manpower Commission The defermination has resulted from an inquiry made by a mine in the Wasilla district which asked for authorization to employ more han the v men which could be alloted it under present WPB yulings by the Coordinator of ines, B. D. Stewart The request was forwarded to the Washington, D. C., headquarters of the War Production Board, which replied that it is within the juris- iction of the War Manpower Com- jon to decide on such requests ditional employees. The WMC reports that it has no ictions limiting World War II ns in their work choice. They may accept employment regardless quotas, as far as the WMC is [ ned which means that mines, or other industrie may (mploy World War II veterans in any number that can be secured out regard to personnel limita- or tions applying otherwise. The WMC office here declared that employers may hire discharged veterans of the Second World War at any and all t s, but caution- cd, however, that the WMC can- riot speak for the WPB which, al- though it has apparently tossed the decision in the lap of the manpower control agency, still may have some restrictions that will apply in cer- tain cases. The WMC urgently requests, however, that employers will clear 1l veterans they may hire through e United States Employment Ser- vice, for three principal reasons 1. The USES can thus accord better service to veterans. 2. The WMC will be able to keep a more accurate count on the number of veterans employed in any given community. Such data on the distribution of veterans is vital for the establishing of hos- pitals and many other services for veterans. Such data can best be correlated through keeping WMZ files up to date, 3. Clearing through the USES will insure the employer that an cmployee hired is actually a veteran of World War II The WMC office stated that vei- present war are just now beginning to arrive in the Territory in 'any numbers and that considerable many inquiries as to their employ- ment stata have been received re- cently. - HAWK INLET MINE DEVELOPMENT 5 MAKING PROGRESS Canadian Firm Directing -Work Toward New En- fry fo Lower Level A new and important gold produc- Southeast Alaska is anticipat- ough development work now way at the Hawk Inlet prop- 1ty formerly known as the Williams Mir according to waugh, of Juneau, who is connect- ed with the enterprise. The property was acquired about twelve year ago by W. S. Pekovich and was laters transferred to the Alaska Empire Gold Mining Com- pany, of Juneau. It was under de- vclopment until stopped in the fall of 1942 by order of the WPB. That development work, dire ted by Mr. Pekovich, succeeded in opening two levels and excavating a glory hole. About a year ago Norman C. Stines, a mining e:.gineer of vast experience in Alaska and elsewhere, now headipg the WPB in the Ters tory, became interested in the prop- erty and, as Managing Director, cvolved with Mr. Pekocich a new plan for development of the Wil- ams vein, which is to be follow- ed during the development activity ncw in progress. Later the St. Eu- gene Mining Corporation, Ltd. subsidiary of the Canadian corpora- tion Ventures, Limited, through the efforts of Mr. Waugh, agreed to undertake the development. Since then the lower level of the property has been unwatered, ex- amination made and rehabilitati work, including the erection of a re- ructed mill, undertaken. F. A. pp. mechanical engineer, a form- or Juneau resident, designed the layout of the mill. Development woik is continuing and is to be ac- cele as scon as men can be securad to speed it up, Mr. Waugh said. At present, a new road from the Leach is the principal project, in or- der that as soon as possible the camp may be moved to the mine and reconstruction of the mill started, before much underground work is undertaken. It is hoped, however, that certain preliminary work dir- ceted toward a new entry into the lower level may soon be started. terans of the armed services in the Herbert J.' THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU ALASKA COMING GADGETS SLOW ARRIVING, SAYS COMMITTEE WASHINGTON, June 16.— “The impression that a transformed world will spring into being short- ly after the cessation of Pacific hostilities, is scarcely to be counted on,” states a release by the Kilgore Subcommittee’ on War Mobilization, a part of the Senate’s Military Af- fairs Committee. “There are strong reasons to be- lieve that improvements will be less rapid and far reaching than is readily assumed,” the report, which was prepared by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in the Labor De- partment, goes on However there is little doubt that products mers will be improved duting the early post-war greatl, years.” Specificauy, tirst automobiles | turned out will be the same as pre- ar models except for changes in| the design of radiator grills, fen-| ders and such parts, because manu- facturers don't want to lose time retooling for vastly different de- signs. Later, a gradual adoption of expected changes may see the shift of the engine to the rear of the machine, the use of high oc- tane gasoline, pistons cooled jets of engine oil, and so on. Likewise, aircraft companies will not spend their time on stream- lined helicopters for the average family man.
