' REPAYMENT PLAN “Although the act provides for} rcpayment to the Federal Govern- | ment of from 25 to 75 percent of the cost,” Morrell said, “we have to think in terms of 50 percent, for we have to put half the total appropriation (870,000,000 for the States Treasury. ! “For every case where repayment) would be at 25 percent, we have to find one at 75—and you won't find | even a wealthy community wanting | to repay more than absolutely nec- essary.” Morrell and his party expect wl spend about three days in each of | the three communities, allowing several extra days for weather ori other delays. In the group booked ior Anchorage today were Morrell, Lester Marx, Special Assistant to the Commissioner of Community Facilities; Mel Frazier, legal expert; Joseph Patton, financial analyst; and Miss Mary Mieczkowski, sec 1¢tary. She, with Morrell and Marx, came to the Territory from the Washington, D.C., office. They will be joined in Anchorage by John Argetsinger, District Engineer, who | has been to Nome and Fairbanks on a preliminary trip. ] About December 16, Morrell, Marx and Miss Mieczkowski will | ters otfice here, and Patton and azier will remain until their per- nent replacements are assigned.

We need more observers, THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA CAP SQUADRCN HAS | "COM"”, WEATHER At their third meeting last night, members of the Juneau Civil Air Fatrol Squadron got the informa- tive technical program and organi- zutional meeting they had expected -—and the added stimulus of short talks by three experts skilled in | established CAP activities, | The visitors, all from Anchorage, were Bill Hanson, Alaska CAP Wing Operations Officer; Morgan D s, Wing Assistant Executive | Officer, and Capt. Kent Tilling- hast, a memker of the Anchorage CAP Squadron, All are with the CAA, Hanson and Davies as patrol pilots, and as Assistant chief of air traffic control. Faul I. McConnell, Communica- tions Officer of the Juneau Squad- ron, gave the main talk, which was instruction in that field. It ranged from background informa- tion to discussion of current re- search in omni-directional range finding. The visiting experts, all friends of McConnell, undertook a little friendly heckling which turned into lively technical talk luter McConnell had set the key for his instruction period by calling communications (“the art of im-| porting formation to another™) an essence of civilization, and men- | tioning early methods other than speech—such as drums, smoke sig- nals, semaphore, heliograph, tele- graph and telephone. He traced the important steps since 1864, when Maxwell proved that a radio wave could be used instead of wire, and the speaker went into basic principles of radio communication. With his own experiences in both {light and ground communications and navigation, McConnell was well oualified to discuss aircraft com- munications and air-ground con- trol. McConnell is Air Traffic Con- troller at the Juneau Airport CAA tewer. In a short talk, Mrs. Maynard S Stimson suggested that the Juneau CAP Squadron undertake experi- | ments to develop a practical radio- sounding rocket for weather ob- servations. Similar research is be- ing conducted in the states. Such rockets, said the speaker, have these advantages over sound- ing talloons: rockets go up higher and faster, so can collect weather data at greater heights; they are not blown off course nor lost so casily, therefore more frequent ob- | servations can be taken, and, being more sturdily constructed, rockets permit Letter protection for re- cording instruments. “Alaskans need not remain at| the mercy of the whims and fancies | of the meteorological elements,” she | said. “The science of meteorology | is exact enough to predict weather | when a sufficient number of ob—i be made over a/ | and CAP members could help cope | with Alaska’s special weather prob- | lems through a rocket research pro- L gram.” | Mrs. Stimson, who majored mathematics at UCLA, has long | bad weather, Alaska weather in particular, as her hob:y, and she took a course in meteorology at | Los Angeles. i ! She and her husband, who is an | architect with the Alaska Road Commission, have been in Juneau ¢nly since July.

PAY BENEFITS | EXHAUSTED FOR 715 iN ALASKA WASHINGTON, Dec. 8—IP—A rapid rise in the number of un- employed workers exhausting jobless kenefit rights is causing growing concern among government offic- ials. Latest figures compiled by the Labor Department’s Bureau of Em- ployment Security show about 500,- } 0C0 persons ran out of their rights to further unemployment compen- sation payments during the July- September quarterly period. These are persons who still did not have jobs aft: running through all the unemployment insurance payments they were entitled to. These exhaustions came at time of high em yment, and giy an idea of the problem that would arise in a time of sericus unem- ployment. A list of tes and terrifories with their exhaustiens for the July-September quarterly period listed first, followed by the figure or the same period a year ago, includes Alaska, 775, 1949; 370, 1948.
