It was, however, only one of a number of matters scussed with the President by Gov i ing and Washington Senator War- ran Magnuson, the Governor stated today. | The President looked favorably on proposals to keep the Haines branch' road to the Alaska Highway open! and it is to be brought- up for con-| sideration by the Canadian Domin- jon government as well as British Columbia authorities, ;Gov. Gruen-| ing declared. | The Governor said he had outlined | RAF STARTS to President Truman the start made toward postqwar development of Alaska and had pointed out limita- tions that would be put on the pro- | gram should Alaska be forced to! carry it on alone. He cited to the President the fact that returning service men are already turning to Alaska and that the Territory is not ready for them. | President Truman recognized the serfousness of the situation and ex- pressed interest in and sympathy with Alaska’s problem.

He succeeded in securing the promise of a considerable group of the chief officials of that agency to come to Alaska for a first hand view of conditions. They are ex- pected to arrive in the Territory in about 10 days, probably arriving in Ketchikan the first of the month, when Pan American World Airways inaugurates the use of An-| nette Island as a permanent base for Ketchikan service, | After stopping in Ketchikan, the BWPC heads will come on to Ju- neau, then visit other Alaska cit- ies. The Governor has asked them to “sit down” in the various com- munities with Chambers of Com-' merce, civic authorities and all other interested parties for dis- cussion of all possible projects for the Territory. | It is possible, the Governor stated, that ex-Congressman Maury | Maverick, now heading the Smaller' ‘War Plants agency, will make the trip. is Howard McGowan, regional chief of the SWPC. | —————— fVeIerans foGel Priority for All Farm Machinery| — THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA On Okinawa's Ycnten airfield, Marines examine an abandcned Jap “Baka” bomb. fins and tail assembly carries a lone pilot on a suicide mission.
