QUALITY SINCE 188T (OMMUNITY BLDG IS DEDICATED BY HIGH OFFICIALS (Continued from Page One) Mayor Waino Hendrickson offi- cially “accepted” the Community Building as an integral part of the city, and gave enthusiastic recogni- tion to re-establishment of Dis- trict Headquarters. BANFIELD SPEAKS FOR COMPANY Attorney Norman Banfield, Presi- dent of the Community Building Corporation, recounted some of the problems and details of interest In the young company. He said, “The Chamber ¢f Com- merce initiated the idea, with in- structions to get the building built.| Juneau realizes,” he continued, “that its economic and social life is founded vn the Government and its branches. Government, to be ef- fective, is centralized here . .. and no branch of the Government is ot greater importance to Juneau than the Coast Guard.” Captain Haugen who, said Gov- ernor Parks, is “remembered well for his service in these waters 20 Jears ago on the old Unalga,” spoke very triefly in introducting Admiral O'Neill. That tall, lean, blue-eyed admiral spoke colorfully of the service he is soon to command.

Ernest Gruening was called/| |on to introduce his friend of long standing, Secretary Snyder. In a| brief talk well sprinkled with hu- mor, Gov. Gruening pointed out | that, “of all the important federal: | agencies operating here, none merits more approval than the Coast Guard. It works 365 days, in’ fair weather and foul.” Then, with a neat pun on “revenue” in the di- rections of Coast Guard cutter and Treasury Department, Gov. Gruen-' ing welcomed Secretary Snyder as a sourdough, on his second annual visit, . ! SENYDER IS COMPLIMENTARY Secretary Snyder told an apt little anecdote of the South (fiom his Arkansas childhood), then com- | mented, “If you want a new state —and when you want statehood— yours should be the most beautiful one of all. Your scenery is unparal- leled “And your people—" here the 'Seu'e!ary reached for superlatives,: characterizing Alaskans as “intel- ligent, aggressive, forceful people, with clear vision and unlimited vigor.” The Secretary echoed Admiral O'Neill's remarks about the im- portance of the Territory for its} key defense points, and added his| “testimonial” as to the Depart-j ment’s interest in Coast Guard op- erations here. !

The officials will confer with Gen. Douglas MacAr- thur and his financial advisors be- fore going to Manila, Guam, Wake and Honolulu, the return to San Francisco slated for November 27. According to Admiral O'Neill, the Coast Guard has installations at all places mentioned except Tokyo. The Coast Guard has loran sta- tions on three strategic Japanese islands. “Thes” said the Admiral, “will be mafntained by the United States until Japan is in a position to take over their operation under a peace treaty.” About 85 percent of the Presi- dents of the United States have been of English, Welsh, Scotch or Scotch-Irish extraction.

Heacock of Seattle said| | voted to TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 15, .1949 CIVIL AIR PATROL TO ASSIGN DUTIES, HAVE INSTRUCTION The many persons who have re- quésted application forms for mem- bership in the Juneau Squadron of the Civil Air Patrol are asked to take the completed applica- tions to the meeting at 7:30 pm. tomorrow. Members and prospective members will gather at that hour in the office of the Resident En- gineer at the Army Dock. Squadron Commander Alan G. Marcum calls attention to a special service that will te available at the meeting. Qualified members will be there to take the necessary finger- prints and identification pictures. With their eyes on the future service of the Civil Air Patrol through its air cadet pre-flight training program, Juneau and Douglas enthusiasts hope to com- plete the administrative set-up im- mediately. The ultimate aim of the program for boys and girls 15, 16 and 17 years old is to create a continuing tody of air cadets whose interest in aviation will carry them into the aircraft industry as scientists, executives, mechanical and main- tenance experts and as navigators and pilots. Largely through CAP activities, aviation is winning a permanent place in the nation's education system, alongside traditional sub- jects.

It is hoped this group will spearhead Congressional action on defense during the second session of the 81st Congress. 2.—Supporting this Congressional committee is the new All-America Defense Association. Groups in { Bristol, Conn., Boston, Mass.; De-. troit, Mich.; Cleveland, O.; Min- neapolis, Minn.; San Francisco, Calif.; and Salt Lake City, Utah, jare on the move. Alasin Keystone It is hoped to inspire a program to erase the vulnerability which the Air Force has said exists in cer- tain areas and provide an aggressive efense program, Cain declared. “In all consideration to date, it has agreed that Alaska is the keystone of the entire program,” Cain continued. “We hope in this program to de- velop both the defense and econ- omic welfare of Alaska, which in ¢ a gense is an important factor or} defense itself. 3 “In this latter program we clude the projected new railroad, linking Seattle with Fairbanks, ex- tension of existing roads and the construction of new ones, and the building up of basic industries to give Alaska some semblance of in- dustrial stability, which, at present, it does not enjoy.” MARTHA SOCIETY BAZAAR Church parlors Nov. 18, 7 pm., ncedle work, home made candy, Xmas cards, fishpond, etc. Dessert served from 7 p.m. on.—adv. 51-3t MUSICIANS LOCAL 672 Meeting Thursday at 7 p.m. in A.

The curbs on gross loads of C-46 planes, originally announced by the CAA on Nov. 1, had been scheduled to take effect Nov. 16. Heacock said he and other in- terested persons, at a conference with CAA and Civil Aeronautics Board officials yesterday, al:o ob- tained an interpretation of the rul- ing “which will permit full pay- load operations of C-46'; on most Alaskan and U.S. routes after Dec. Heacock said a previous inter-| pretation would have cut the gross| loads of C-46's carrying hLoth cargo| and passengers from 10,500 pounds to from 5000 to 6,000 pounds. 1 He said that restriction would have made continued operation by| nine carirers serving Alaska "Eco<[ nomically impracticable.” | No scheduled airlines are now| using C-46 planes in passenger operations, he said. ! Heacock said Harold A. Jones, a member of the CAA, plans to leave here today for Seattle and thence on to Alaska to study the needs of the Territory for air service.

Some high schools already allow credit toward graduation of stu- dents who have completed CAP courses. An international exchange of cadets was started this year with England, France and Switzerland, and last year with Canada, cadets going to encmpments in the vari- ous countries. “First, we must have a good ad- ministrative organization,” said Marcum today. “It is lining up well, but we can always find good assign- ments for persons with specialized experience and interests. Men and women with experience in supply, finance and en- gineering fields will be especially welcome at the meeting tomorrow night.” After screening of applications, assignments will be made tomorrow to vacant positions, and there will te general discussion of CAP activities and what each member wants to do in the Squadron. The second half of the meeting will be technical, dealing 'with communications and problems of flying in Southeast Alaska, Instructors will be needed later for such subjects as map-reading, theory of flight, navigation, meteor- ology, aircraft structure, engines, instruments, communications, crash procedures and OCivil Air Regula- tions. “CAP training is a liberal educa- tion,” Marcum quoted Col. Jack Carr, commanding officer of the Alaska Wing. “Members who can fly broaden their aviation know- ledge and learn the related-ground subjects. Non-flyers learn about aviation.” The Civil Air Patrol is an official auxiliary of the United States Air Forces. The Juneau Squadron, formed November 3, is the first unit of a proposed Southeast Alaska CAP Group. Torelieve cough= ing spasms, muscular soreness, rub throat, chest and !
