F lling the emphasis on Al- ska’s location in the House debatc that preceded passage of the bill to make the Territory a state, Bartlett said military considera- 1s alone do not make Alaska im- tant to the United States. ‘Of equal importance are our vast expanses of valuable undevel- oped natural resources,” he con- inued in a statement in the Con- ional Record. “Neither in ag- riculture nor industry have we be- zun to tap the wealth of resources ait only to be put to produc- can As an example, Bartlett urged development of the Territory’s peat deposits, saying their utilization would be valuable to agriculture and commerce, He said other countries were us- ing peat and that Russia has found it not only a source of low cost fuel but of industrial chemicals, building materials, insulation and fertilizers. In the United States, he added, it has been used for insulation and fertilizers. Research, he said, probably will develop other uses. You don’t have to send out for bulbs. Juneau Young Hardware will have a large new selection of spring planting bulbs within a few days— at less than Seattle prices. 51tf RUMMAGE SALE W.S.C.S. of the Methodist Church in Church basement, Saturday March 18, 10 to 3:30 p.m. 52-3t CATHOLIC DAUGHTERS PLAN 2 CARD PARTIES At the regular business meeting of the Catholic Daughters of America last night overall plans were made to cover the balance of the season, before the Club dis- bands for the summer months. As the last public events of the season the court decided to hold Wwo card parties at the Parish Hall, the first on Friday night Apri 21 and the second on Friday night May 12. At the last party the beau- tiful applique quilt which has been completed in the past two years will | be awarded. Committee on tickets for this wili be Mrs. George Gulluf- son Sr. and Mrs. J. K. McAlister. Chairman of the committee for the two card parties will be Mrs. Mile. Godkin Among other matters taken up last night were the Red Cross drive and workers were appointed for this agtivity. The Library pledge was discussed and Katherine Nor- dale was chosen head of this de partment, The annual national breakfast event was considered briefly and tentative plans were also made for a new project tc rry through the summer that wil replace the quilt that is to be awarded. The next meeting of the court wil be the social meeting on April 28 CAA STARTS WORK ON SEAL COATING GUSTAVUS RUNWAY Earlier than had been expected work is to begin immediately on seal coating the main runway at Gustavus, according to Arnold Francis, Juneau station manager for the Civil Aeronautics Adminis- tration. The CAA barge BSP No. 3144 left early this morning with a construc- tion crew in charge of Bernie H. Reiten. The first barge-load of asphalt, 2,000 barrels, was taken to Cus- tavus yesterday. Seal coating of the 300-foot wide 7,500-foot run- way is considered an important major improvement in the safety of operation there, especially in connection with the recently com- pleted improved instrument land- ing system. Still another CAA aid to air navigation in this area is installa- tion of obstruction lights on moun- tains near the Juneau Airport. Bob Matson of Anchorage is making good progress in his survey of such aircraft beacons for the turn- around. o GaBe BECAUSE a new hat is a vital accessory . . .
