MONDAY, MARCH 13, 1950 EN(AMPMENI OF AIR|ALASKA STEAM SCOUTS T0 BE HELD| WANTS 10 SHIPS; AT ELMENDORF FIELD The fourth all-Alaska annual air scout encampment has been set for Elmendorf Field at Fort Richard- son, August 6-12, according to an- nouncement today by boy scout headquarters at Juneau, following conferences with representatives ot Brig. Gen. D. R. Hutchinson, 57th Wing Commander. Two of the pre- vious annual senior scout encamp- nts have been held there with last year's activity being conducted at Ladd Field, near Fairbanks. Under the general sponsorship of the Air Force, the annual encamp- ments have proved very attractive aska’s older scouts, including uts, explorers and sea scouts year approximately and leaders took part in the Fair- banks encampment. Council head- quarters indicated that over double this number might participate this year, because of the lower age limit which will permit more boys to at- tend. Minimum age for explorers is now 14, with nearly 400 of the Alaska Council's present member- ship of 1550 boys belonging in the older age group of 14 to 17. Ex- plorers in troops, as well as those in sea scout ships, air scout squad- rons, and regular explorer posts, will be eligible to attend, accord- ing to scout officials. Council officers are working closely with the Air Force spon- sors in determining a constructive and attractive program for the ex- plorers; based on the last three years' experience, the activity will be the highlight of the senior scouts’ program for the year, they report. | Dates were chosen in order to allow ; the Alaska Council’s Jamboree dele- on of 45 older scouts to return m their Valley Forge trip and t their homes throughout the 0 ry for their first re-union at the air scout encampment. More 1 details will be released later on the; air camp. ATTENTION MASONS Stated Communication of Mt. Ju- neau Lodge No. 147 Monday eve- at 7:30. Dinner at 6:30. Past ters Night with Labor in M. Degree. J. W. LEIVERS, Secty. SCHWINN BIKES AT MADSEN'S BALKS AT PRICE SEATTLE, March 13—(®—The Alaska Steamship Company is in the market to Luy 10 more 5,000~ ton freighters, G. W. Skinner, President, says. But Skinner emphasized the price must be low enough to permit op- eration of the vessels without rais- ing rates to the Territory. Skinner said the Alaska Line is negotiating with the U. S. Mari- ime Commission to work out a pro- sram of ship sales to submit to Congress as soon as possible. The government owns numerous 5,000-ton ships of the so-called ‘Knot-type,” or C1-MAC1 class. similar to the freighter Terminal Knot which the company purchas- ed from the Commission some time ago. The current price tag on such ships for sale by the Commission is $694,000. Skinner said the Ithe could not pay that much for addi- tional vessels without rates being raised. Meanwhile, in Washington, D. C., Rep. Thor Tollefson (R-Wash) pro- posed that the government build ships suitable for the Alaska trade and make them available to ship lines under a subsidy arrangement. 1,000 TROOPS T0 | BE STATIONED AT * HANFORD PLANT FORT LEWIS, Mash, March 13— (M—Permancnt deployment of 1,000 | anti-aircraft trocps in the area of the Hanford Atomic Plant near Richland has been ordered, Maj.

COLUMBIARIVER | SEASON IN 1949 WORST, HISTORY ASTORIA, Ore. March 13—(P— The Columbia River salmon pack- ing industry had its third worst year in history last year, figures released by the Pacific Fishermen’s Only 178,122 cases of salmon were | packed last year, far below the 62- year average of 292,334. Only two years—1943 and 1945—were worse. “The frequent recurrence of such failures,” said packers, “is a source of growing alarm.” Smaller fish runs, winter ice in the river, longer closed periods, and a 24-day fishermen’s strike were all factors in the low pack.
