This is a little tough! on sparsely populatd States. .Another factor is the area of the State in relation to the total area of the United States. And this is advantageous to large States like Texas, Montana and Alaska, should it be- come a State. The third is the number of miles of roads in the State under consideration, with respect to the total number of miles of roads in the United States. And this, of course, works something of a hardship on States whose total road mileage is small. But even so, it works out to a pretty fair dis- tribution of the available funds. Now there are certain things a State has to per- form before it can be eligible to participate in this program. First of all, it must set up. at its own ex- pense. a State Highway Department in conformity with established standards. This Highway Department must be staffed with competent engineers, designers, draftsmen, mechanics and such other personnel as its program demands. It must possess and operate all necessary equipment—dozers, graders, scrapers, snow- plows, etc.—for the construction of roads to rigid speci- fications and for the maintenance of those roads in an THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA f . !lho population of the state in relation to the total| M { populati = September 25 F.

CREDIT FOR GRAYLING Even though the Territorial Sportsmen, Inc., did not obtain as many grayling as they had hoped to get for transplanting in lakes near Juneau, their efforts are certainly a forward step toward introducing this gamey fish into this section of Alaska. However, the project is not dead, but will be picked up again in the spring. This project, spearheaded and financed by the Sportsmen, is a fine example of healthy-cooperation among the Alaska Department of Fisheries, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the U. S. Forest Service, and the various Canadian authorities who gave per- mission to remove the grayling from a Canadian lake. HIGHWAY TO STATEHOOD Along with the blessings of sovereign statehood come a number of responsibilities. One of these is the obligation of the state to build and maintain ade- quate roads and highways within its borders. To assist the states in this work, the Federal government has made available matching funds under the Highway Act and the Federal Aid Act. But there are several strings to this participaton. However, they're reasonable safeguards against unwise dissi- pation of public funds and they operate to assure an authorized. And, incidentally, the work must be' done by the State Highway Department—not by private contractors. We aren’t going to attempt an estimate of the cost of organizing and equipping such a Department here in Alaska. Let us. instead, continue. Let us say that the Staje has succeeded in or- ganizing and equipping its Highway Department. Ap- proval of its participation has been secured and Fed- eral funds have been earmarked for its road construc- tion program. What next? At its own expense, the State must plan where it will build its road, survey the land, design the road and prepare engineering drawings, complete with material specifications and cost estimates. This, too is expensive. If and when all this preliminary work meets with Federal approval, the State must match the Federal funds and then — and not before, may begin con struction. When the road has been completed and is bearing traffic, its maintenance becomes the obligation of the State Highway Department. How much of the cost of repair and maintenance will be borne by the Federal government? . NOT ONE DIME! The State must maintain its roads at its own expense. During the fiscal year 1951, the Federal govern- ment will spend approximately $3,885,000.00 for the maintenance only of Alaska’s roads. And that figure will increase annually as new, needed roads are con- structed. If every one of the 130,000 people in Alaska—paid an equal share of the $3,885,000, the added tax would be $29.88 due from every man, woman and child in the equitable distribution of these funds among the several states. To determnie the amount of Federal aid a State d receive, several factors are considered.

Other Mata Haris?? The case of Kim Soo Im and Colonel Baird probably could have taken place in various parts of the world—especially in Japan and Germany, where American troops are stationed far from home and families. And what the Army is worried about right now is that other Communist spies might be planted on American officers. Colonel Baird, 60 years old, born in Ireland, was a policeman in Rhode Island and a reserve officer when he joined the Army as a Major ‘in 1941.

Eventually, he escaped into North Korea in an American Army Jeep—by courtesy of Colonel Baird’s mistress, government and for whom the au- thorities had thrown out a dragnet. However, because of American Prestige, Koreans did nothing about the situation. After all, Americans -were Korea’s benefactors, the train- ers of Korean troops, in effect the rulers of the country. Colonel Baird himself was senior adviser to the Korean Army. So it was embar- assing to make any protest, Counterespionage?
