Movements can be made from Valdez by this route through Gulkana and Tok to Fairbanks. Local contributions of $33,000 in cash are to be made to the Alaska Road Commission to help finance the work. Also, snow clear: equipment, labor and other direct contricutions will be made by in- terested shippers. The work will start November 1. After that date, traffic over this dangerous road between Valdez and Copper Center will be controlled by the Alaska Road Commission in order that advantage miay be taken of favorable weather and the dan- ger of loss of life minimized. The Alaska Road Commission will pro- | vide inspection service, and only those vehicles believed capable of completing the hazardous journey without breakdowns or serious dan- ger will be permitted on this part of the road. If the experiment proves success- ful, it may lead the way to regular use of this road the year round for movement of passengers and freight into the interior.

ALASKA'S MENTALLY ILL: The community’s place in the care, understanding and gdjustment j of the mentally ill was the theme of Dr, Duncan Chalmers’ talk to Juneau Soroptimist Club members {at luncheon on the Baranof Ter- race today. { Dr. Chalmers expressed belief that the community should share the responsibility of the mentally ill; that the mentally ill should not ties; that they should not be stig- matized as legally insane. Dr. Chalmers, who is director of communicable and preventable di- seases for the Territory of Alaska, declared his hope that community hospital and health facilities will be made available to the mentally dis- turbed as they are to the tubercular or persons with other illnesses. “More than anything, they need | the understanding of the people of the community who should realize that many of the mentally ill have merely entered into a situation with which they are not mentally able to cope,” Dr. Chalmers said. Dr. Florence Field, Dr. Chalmers’ assistant, told of the present regu- lations regarding commitment of the mentally ill to custpdial care, the procedure which requires com- plaint, jury trial and restraint by the U.S. Marshal's office. Response among the clubwomen to her ex- planation of present treatment of the mentally ill was that the pro- cedure is “barbaric” and that changes—territorial and municipal —should be made. President Alice Thorne, Mrs.! Mildred Hermann and others look ! part in a general discussion as to what the community could do undeér present laws to the mentally disturbed and interest indicated that the question may become a project of local Soroptimists. Another speaker was Mrs. H. W. Peterson, national deputy com- mander of the American Cancer Society, who told of the success of the Alaska cancer group under the leadership of Mrs. Hermann, In charge of today's meeting was Mrs, Mernice Murphy, Soroptimist program chairman.
