The broadcast, recorded in New York by the Associated Press, said the bomb which fell on Hiroshima on August 6 killed or injured 160,000 persons and left 200,000 homeless. The bomb which hit Nagasaki on August 9 left 120,000 casualties, the radio report said. The broadcast said “furthermore many persons are dying daily from burns sustained during the course of the raids.

Pan American would not wish to under- take a hazardous operation at the expense of safety,’and, in my opin- ion, the public would not wish us .to attempt it. [ “Under the above circumstances we are clearly faced with two al- ternatives. One, to retain on our trunk line operation from Seattle to and through the territory air- craft of the DC-3 type, which are limited as to the amount of traffic they can carry, as to speed, and, ul-; timately, a&s to the fares which we must charge the public in order to obtain sufficient income to keep |them in operation, or, two, place in operation Constellation aircraft that will carry sixty passengers on our trunk line routes, equipped with four engines as an added safety factor, and which will cruise at speeds in excess of three hundred miles per, hour. Obviously, if we use the Con- stellation aircraft we must operate them into an airport which is physi- cally able to accommodate them with safety. The nearest airport to Juneau that will safely handle Con- stellations is Gustavus. | “It follows, therefore, that Gus- tavus would be used as a transfer point and we will operate direct con- necting shuttle planes, undoubtedly Douglas DC-3's to bring Juneau- bound traffic directly to Juneau. | record.

Need for the presence of Councilman John Young to com- plete a quorum switched the locale of the meeting to the hospital room where Councilman Young is con- valescing. At this afternoon’s session, the = council was to vote its approval of assessment adjustments decided during the past two weeks of equalization meetings.
