PAGE EIGHT F&WLS OFFICIAL ; BATTLES STORMS | — N CALIFORNIA Howard C. Baltzo is glad to re- turn to the comparative calm of Juneau's cold and windy weather after battling the storms which have swept California, he said this morn- ing. Baltzo, Assistant Regional Di- rector for the Fish and Wildlife Service returned here on yesterday afternoon’s Pan American clipper after a trip to Seattle and San Fran- cisco on Service business. Winds and Rain At the San Francisco airport last week Baltzo said winds were almost 60 miles per hour and the rains came in a downpour. In the city the gligging Ol! the Years ey | 2| i S e T e winds blew the rain at a horizontal ; angle and Baltzo drenched in the short time it took to cross a street. Trees in and around the city appeared to be on a permanent horizontal line. At- tempting to get anywhere was a battle against cold rains and pow- erful winds. | Business completed and deter- | mined to be in Juneau for the| Thanksgiving holidays with his family, Baltzo abandoned all hope of flying north and took the bus route from the Bay City to Seattle. | He said that while the major swrm‘ was east of the Sacramento valley‘ highway route his bus traveled, winds and rains and cold were bat- tled on the northbound trip. The road was clear when his bus trav- | eled over it but was inundated in| several places 12 hours later. Fields | in the valley were completed cuv-‘ ered by water on each side of the| roadway. | Flying Out Baltzo said he and Clarence | Rhode, F&WS Regional Director, had to abandon plans to attend the annual Salmon Canners Convention held in Santa Barbara November 17. They expected to fly in the F&WS | Beechcraft which had taken them | south and when they found an ex- | pected clearance for flying was can- | celled out it was too late for other‘ means of transportation. | totaled 77 with 10 on interport, 43 said one was | owass i o s s I R S il Clippers that made history. 1—Sikorsy S-42 (1935-38). 2—Martin M-130, the “China Clipper” (1935-40). 3—Boeing B-314 (1940-46). 4—Douglas DC-4 (1946-50). 5—Double-decked “Strato” Clipper, in use today.

E. Robertson, director of the local council “We don't anticipate an atomic { bombing but there is the possibilty of fire bommbing. Each captain is to know his own area for evacua- | tion. A master plan of evacuation is to be worked out from the cap- {tains’ plans for their areas,” said | Robertson. “The blue alarm has been with- drawn in the eastern states because i attack now should be too fast for ';\I 'm to be sounded. This blue falarm was to give 30 minutes warn- {ing in case of attack. The master { evacuation plan is to be coordin- ated with police and fire depart- ments efforts in evacuation,” said Robertson. One c . acuation plan .nitted makes use «f the Alaska. Juneau Co., number 3 tunnel Robertson asked that one two lieutenant’s names for each area be submitted in case the area captain is called out oi town. Henry Harmon, one of the area stated that the peopl ild be informed as to what i expected of them in the way of ev- acuation. “This information,” he said, “should come from the Coun cil heads.” The Red Cross first aid kits are ready for the area captains already sub- or ains, ! Yto pick them up according to the | Rev. Willis Booth. “The turn out 1 for the first aid courses sponsored !by the Red Cross is low. Each s area captain is to make sure there is a trained person to handle the ‘kits," said Tom Dyer, first vice- | director -of the civil defense coun- | cil. “The picking up of arm bands and oaths with the return of the completed oaths is slow.

Agency Control Baltzo said Rhode and he con- ferred with Park Service officials at San Francisco in regard to commer- | cial fishing and wild life protection | in the Glacier Bay and Katmai Na- tional Monuments. The Park Serv- ice has recently had a limited ap- propriation approved for develop- ‘ment in the two monuments and the question now arises as to which agency shall take the responsibility for fishing, game and trapping in the areas. Baltzo said the matter has been referred to the Secretary | of the Interior in Washington for final determination. The Assistant Regional Director | said it is planned to send enforce- | ment officers from Alaska to Cali- fornia shortly after the first of the | year to aid in game enforcement | for a temporary period, during the‘ slack season in the winter months in Alaska. Arrangements for this move were completed by Baltzo and Rhode after a meeting with the Wild Life Management office in Oakland. It is on a reciprocal basis, enforce- | ment officers from the California | district being transferred to Alaska | during its busiest season in the| summer months. Rhode and Baltzo also inspected surplus aircraft equipment at the Alameda Navy Base. Before going to California they attended the Fisheries Hearings in Seattle. 21 FLY ON PACIFIC NORTHERN TUESDAY Pacific Northern Airlines carried (4) The DC-4, postwar * | of the skies” which replaced fly- jing boats in the Pacific and is ‘xused today on Alaska routes and cn For Hoonah: Jim Richardson, Don - PAA South Pacific routes to Aus- Williams, Gilbert Mills, Martinj‘m“av New Zealand and between Holm, Robert Warfield, Jimmy“Mnmla and Singapore.
