SHIMKIN REPORT FORT YUKON AREA IS AVAILABLE HERE A comprehensive survey of the Fort Yukon region—its resource pattern, problems and potential— has been published by the Alaska Development Board. Copies are wailable from the Board’s office. The 50-page report, which was prepared by Dr. Demitri B. Shim- kin of Harvard University under sponsorship of the Arctic Institute of North America and the Office of Naval Research, has been repro- duced by special permission of the author. Dr. Shimkin is an internationally recognized authority on Arctic and sub-Arctic development, and dur- ing World War II occupied an im- portant post in the U. S. War De- partment, Field work for the Fort Yukon study ‘was undertaken during the summer of 1949. The Development Board worked closely with Dr. Shimkin while he was in the Ter- ritory, furnishing information and| other assistance, Although Fort Yukon, historical- ly, occupies an important place in Alaska’s development, little infor- mation about resources of the re- gion has been set down heretofore. The information contained in Dr. Shimkin’s study should facilitate development of this important, though remote, region of the Fourth Judicial Division, the Development Board believes. The wild rose is the state flower of Iowa. e PAGE FIVE O:LCENTURY THEATRE » WHERE HITS ARE A HABIT!
