VOL. LXXVIIL, NO. 11,885 Governor Dewey, on Whirlwind Trip of Pacific, Visits Juneau Aug. 21 | WELLINGTON, New Zealand Aug. 13—(P—Gov. Thomas E. Dewey announced plans today to visit Alaska on his way home from a whirlwind tour of the Pacific. Dewey said he would spend eight days in Alaska late this month to inspect defenses there. As for his Pacific tour thus far, Dewey gave a gloomy picture. The situation is “very bad,” he declared. “Russia has never ceased mak- ing war since the end of the sec- ond World War,” he told a news conference. “Five wars are going on in the Pacific — in Korea, Indonesia, Malaya, the Philip- | pines and Indochina — and no- body else is behind them but Russia. Russia has two objec tives: getting Japan and Ger- many. If she can get both, she can tip the balance of power. Japan’s ability to defend herself must be built up.” Arriving by plane from Australia for a three-day visit, the New York governor advocated more defense treaties in the Pacific, particularly one covering Indonesia and Burma. He emphasized that the only way to avoid World War IIT is to be strong enough to prevent it. Dewey praised the Japanese peace treaty as a brilliant piece of negotiation. In order to make the trip to| Alaska Dewey said, he had changed : his schedule as follows: Leave Wellington, Aug. Fiji and Honolulu. Spend three days in Honolulu in- stead of the four previously plan- ned and take off for Seattle Aug. 19. Arrive Seattle 12:30 pm., PST,| Aug. 20, leaving at 7 o'clock the next morning for Juneau where he is scheduled to arrive at 1:15 p.m. He will spend Aug. 22 to 29 in Alaska. - FarweTl, ?ildl of Aleutian, Dead SEATTLE, Aug. 13—{®—Capt. Raymond F. Farwell, 58, University of Washington transportation pro- fessor and an authority on pilot rules, died of a heart attack Friday night aboard the steamship Aleu- tian in Alaskan waters. Farwell had signed on as a sum- mer pilot of the Alaska Steamship Co.’s Aleutian which docked in Ju- neau yesterday enroute to Seattle.

Hundreds LeRoy West Wins Tenth Place in Soap Box Derby LeRoy West, Jr., Alaska’s 13-year- old Soap Box Derby champion, won tenth place in a field of 140 entries at the all-American race held at Akron, O., yesterday. He met defeat in this third round heat but made the best showing of boys entered from Oregon, Wash- ington and Alaska. He was the only one of the group to get past the first round, and won a spray gun as prize. LeRoy scored first and second round heat victories but was third in this third round heat. The racer | that eliminated him from the final running made fourth place in the race. | Mr. and Mrs. W, B.

Baranof Crewman Removed as "Risk’ SEATTLE, Aug. 13 —(®—Jerry Tyler, former secretary of the Se- attle C.I.O. council, moved from the crew of the steam- ship Baranof as a poor security risk. Coast Guard officers handed Tyler a form letter stating that his pres- ence aboard the vessel would be inimical to the security of the country. He had planned to sail to Alaska as a third pantryman. Tyler said he would appeal his removal through the Marine CouksI and Stewards’ Union (Ind).

Dr. Charles H. Jones, superin- tendent of Northern States Hospital at Sedro-Woolley, attacked a com- mon belief among servicemen when he set forth the above fact in an article for the current issue of “dis- eases of the nervous system,” a med= ical journal. During the war, the average serviceman had the same feeling toward Atka, Adak, Amchitka, Shemya or Attu as a Russian would have toward a Siberian Ia- bor camp. That is, until he got there, ac- cording to Dr. Jones, who for 18 months was the only psychiatrist on the island of Shemya. He was a major in the army medical corps. He said the old-timers immediate- ly would convince newcomers that conditions used to be worse. This approach seemed to work wonders in keeping the mental disability rate ! an average of 0.6 percent of the total army was confined to a hos- pital or quarters for neuropsych- Iatric reasons. On Shemya, the average was oply 0.1 percent, “One of the most important forces which tended to keep the rate so low was the attitude held by the] average soldier in respect to his service on Shemya,” Dr. Jones wrote. “This attitude, peculiar to Aleu- tian soldiers, seemed to develop in direct proportion to the length of time on the island.” After the initial landing party pitched tents on the diamond-shap- ed island in the spring of 1943, no person set foot on the island without hearing the universial greet- ing: “You should have been here when it was rough!” “Any complaint by a newcomer wah automatically answered by the same remark,” Dr. Jones explained. ‘Variations of this theme were re- flected constantly in the attitudes of the men toward each other.” Personal prestige rested solely on the length of time a soldter had low, he said. On any one day during the war, Spent on one of the small, barren islands, he said. Lake Appears Where Forest Cutting Gillnels "Discriminatory,’ Service Had Road ,(Ilarqes Fisherman There's a blue lake now whore' a Forest Service road used to be. It is on the Nugget Creek side of Mendenhall Glacier. Two years ago, Charles Burdick, assistant regional forester said the service built a road to the face of the glacler, It brauched off the main road just below the power house and followed the moraine about a mile. A log barrier was erected at the end of the road where tourists and visiters could get'a “close up” of the immense chunk of ice. Last year ice under the graveled road began to melt and large holes | appeared. The Forest Service mov- ed its log barriers back several hundred feet to prevent cars from travel over the road, but visitors could still walk beyond the barrier. Today, however, Burdick said the | road has finally “melted” away: and the lake has moved in. The late Charles Forward, of the Forest Service, established a network of triangulations to check recession of the glacier. These stud- | ies are still being carried on. 1 Burdick said by this method it is determined that probably in five processed, he said, around 35 have been granted the increase. | “m any case,” he said, “where the present maximum rent is less than {120 percent of the June 30, 1947 i level—plus adjustments for improve- | ments and services—the landlord |is eligible for the increase.” Any decreases in services or equip- {ment will act as offsets against the |20 percent increase, he pointed out. Application forms are available to |landlords in the local rent control office in the Valentine Building. Alaska Dentists Open Convention Here Today Gov. Ernest Gruening and Dr. William Whitehead gave addresses lof welcome to the second annual meeting of the Alaska Terirtorial Dental Society which opened here at 3 o'clock this afternoon in the American Legion Dugout, Dr. Joyce D. Smith said today. Some delegates arrived over the weekend but most of them were expected to come by air today. A business session was held today and a cocktail party and buffet sup- per will take place this evening at the home of Dr. and Mrs. R. H. Wil- liams on Glacier Highway." More than 50 dentists are expect- ed to attend the four-day session.

One is in the ground itself and the other is the glacier which moves over the stationary ground ice. Metcalf Will Represent Governor At Road Opening The office of Alaska’s Gover- nor will be represented at the opening of a branch of the Taylor Highway on August 16. Frank A. Metcalf, Territorial highway engineer, has been ap- pointed by Gov. Ernest Gruening to represent him when the Com- missioner of Yukon Territory cuts the ribbon at the border between Alaska and Canada which will >pen the road from Dawson Y. T. to Jack Wade, Alaska. The cere- mony is set to coincide with “Dis- sovery Day” which is celebrated annually by the city of Dawson. Metcalf left yesterday for Haines accompanied by Mrs. Met- :alf, Territorial Treasurer and Mrs. Henry Roden and Highway Patrol officer and Mrs. Emmett Botelho. From Haines they will drive up the Alaska and Taylor Highways. Metcalf said he is also sending representatives of the highway pa- trol from Fairbanks and Tok Junction to attend theroad open- ing. Barllet Asks that Traffic Fines Go ; To Highway Pairol WASHINGTON, Aug. 13—®—Del- egate Bartlett (D-Alaska) introduc- | ed a bill today providing that all fines collected for traffic violations in Alaska shall be used for the Ter- ritory’s highway patrol system. Is cutting the length of a drift gillnet from 200 to 150 fathoms “discriminatory?” This question is the text of a suit brought by a Cook Inlet fish- erman against Oscar Chapman, secretary of Interior; Clarence Rhode, regional girvector of U. 8. Pish and Wildlife Service and Holgar Larsen, service agent. Fenley Gilles is plaintiff in the suit. His discriminatory charge is ased on action of the ,service ‘wherein drift gilinets' were cut from 200 to 150 fathoms in Cook Inlet during the height of the past fishing season. § Reason for its actions, stated at the time by the service, was the intense concentration of gear in that area. There were 700 boats fishing within a distance of seven miles, it was reported at the time. Gilles questions the right of fishery officials to place restric- tion on any form of gear. The of- ficials have 60 days to show cause why such regulations should be enforced. Hearing will be held in Anchorage. Port Rules Are Negotiated with Longshoremen Two Alaska Steamship officials left Juheau yesterday after complet- ing negotiations on port rules in opnnection: with the new Alaska longshore contract, Henry Green, lo- cal agent, said today. The port rules involve operation of equipment, working times, number of men in gangs and other points, it was explained. The longshoremen recently re- ceived a 6-cent an hour increase for straight time and 9-cent an hour increase for overtime. The present base rate is $232 an hour straight time and $348 an hour overtime. In addition the company pays 17% cents per man-hour into a pension fund effective Sept. 1. Since February 1950, the company has been paying 3% cents per man-hour into a welfare fund. Representing the steamship com- pany were Leonard Wesson, chief clerk of the operating department, U. W. Killingsworth, vice president and general manager of the Ketchi- kan Wharf company, and Green. Joe Guy, Sam Adams and John Rogoski were the committee from the International Longshoremen's and Warehousemen’s Union local here, Why Doesn’t This Story Tell Us How!

MEMBER ASSOCIATED PRESS Navy Patrol Bomber From Kodiak Vanishes; Weather Hinders Search 500th Polar Flight Completed by Weather Aircraft FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Aug. 13— (M—A pole-hopping B-29 landed at Eielson Air Force base at 1:02 am. today to complete the 500th flight, over the north pole by the 58th weather reconnaissance squa- dron. Special ceremonies completion of No. 500. Lt. Col. Joseph H. Fletcher, the Squadron Commander, comment- ed: “This finishes one phase of Arc- tic studies and operations. Many false assumptions about polar fly- ing have existed and there have been many unknown factors. It has taken us 500 flights to under- stand the polar regions aeronaut- ically. We have now completed these studies and are ready to clabark on the routine phase of vur work.” For four years the “Ptarmigan” flyers have been passing over the north pole every other day. They never have had a serious accident on' one of the 15 to 2l-hour flights. Colonel Fletcher explained that one of the chief problems has been navigation. The magnetic compass Is erratic and virtually worthless near the pole because of its tendency to point straight down, The squadron has devised a sys- tem of navigation with gyroscopic compasses, coupled with celestial bearings and some help from the plane's radarscope.. 5 Once ‘pilots balked at. entering the Arctic during periods of twilight, when neither the sun nor the stars can be used to establish position. The squadron has found that the time between sun and stars is not long enough to cause a plane to get lost. The squadron also has found the Pfund sky compass to be of great aid in twilight. This ingen- ious device enables fliers to estab- lish a position by studying polar- ized rays of light coming over the horizon from the sev sun. . . - The squadron .also has studied ice islands in the Arctic. At one time the fliers had three huge is- lands located for possible landing tields. The 500th flight was a 16-hour round trip. As the plane crossed the pole, the crew radioed: “Greet- ings to the world from the top of the world on the 500th Ptarmigan flight.” marked the Million and a Half Fish Taken from Anan Creek fo Dale Over a million and a half fish for commercial use, have been taken {rom Anan Creek so far this season, Clarence Rhode, reg- ional director of the Fish and wildlife Service, said today. Rhode returned last night from a day’s aerial survey in the area He said that besides the com- mercial take, the creek had re- ceived a good seeding. “It proves beyond argument,” Rhode said, “that a good escape- ment will produce a good run in the next two years. In 1949 the Service was ecriticized by various persons for ‘over escapement’ in Anan, but this year's run is proof that the Service policy was not wrong.” He said there were about 200 seiners in Bradfield Canal and ad- ded that the later run of pinks was now beginning to show in late streams. A. R. Brueger, of the Farwest- Wrangell Company in Wrangell told Rhode that he had 50,000 ca- ses of salmon already packed. Harvey O Apprehended For Fishing in Closed Area The seiner Harvey O was ap- prehended Aug. 10, for fishing in & closed area, according to word re- ceived by ‘the Fish and Wildlife Service. The complaint, signed by John Wendler, Ketchikan agent for the service, charges the boat with fish- ing in closed waters of north Behm Canal. Capt. Lawrence Pawsey of the ves- sel pleaded guilty before U. S. Com- missioner Patrick J. Gilmore, Si in Ketchikan and was fined §: The following crew members, who also pleaded guilty, were given $250 fines: Joe Geist, Kenneth L. Brown, Robert Luke, R. B, Jacobs and Ed- ward Meyers, VISITOR FROM PELICAN Marti Rekala, fisherman from Pelican, is stopping at the Hotel Ju- neau. Amelia Gundersen Dead in Ketchikan Mrs. Amelia Gundersen, member of the Alaska Legislature and a long "time civic leader of Ketchikan, died early Saturday morning i the Ketchikan hospital. She was about 60 years old. Rosary services will be held this avening at 8 o'clock at the Holy Names Catholic Church. The fun- 2ral will be tomorrow at 9 am.

Last winter Mrs. Gundersen un- derwent a major operation in Se- attle, but she served in the 1951 legislative session despite her ill- ness, She was first elected to the House in 1949. She was the wife of Andrew Gundersen, who served in the Ter- ritorial House in 1943 and in the Senate in 1945 and special session of 1946. They were Alaska's first husband and wife team to be elected to the Territorial legislature. The Gundersens were married in Reno, Nevada, in. 1930 and then moved to Ketchikan where Gunder- sen gom{ucted a herring fishery. Mrs. Gundersen was a veteran of both World Wars. In World War, I she saw active duty as an Army nurse. In the last war she was sta- tioned In San Francisco. She was prominent in Red Cross work, in the Ketchikan Women's Club and in nursing organizations. She is survived by her husband in- Ketchikan and three brothers, all living at her former home in Houston, Texas. At the time of her death her usband was aboard the Pirate on the fishing grounds. Gov. Ernest Gruening, when in- formed of the news this morning by The Empire said: “The death of Amelia Gunder- * sel leaves the Territory of Alaska I distinctly poorer. She was a gal- lant soldier, serving her country well in war as in peace. As a train- ed nurse of great abllity shé had repeatedly rendered valuable and | devoted service. “As a legislator she sought to serve the public interest. She will be missed by the many who have known her. To her husband, Andy Gundersen, who is likewise widley known throughout Southeast Al- aska, will go the deep sympathy of a host of friends.” Stork Beats Cufter To Taku Point The stork beat the U. S.

It was the fourth plane to have vanished along the Alaska and British Columbia coasts since July 21. They carfied 60 persons. The Navy PB4-Y-2 Privateer disappeared yesterday after taking off at 7:35 a.m. from its Kodiak base on a routine operational mis- slon. The Kodiak Naval station said nothing was heard from the big plane after it gave a position report at 10:14 am. Its fuel supply would have been exhaus- ted at 9:35 p.m. Alaska time last right. The Alaska Command informa- tion office at Anchorage said the missing plane's last radioed posi- tion was in the vicinity of Port Heiden, on the north side of the Alaska Peninsula. That is about 200 miles out on the peninsula and about 250 miles southwest of Kodiak. Names of the three officers and nine enlisted men in the crew were withheld. An air and sea search was star- ted yesterday after the bomber was presumed lost. Fog and rain curtailed rescue efforts. Planes of the 10th Air Rescue Squadron at Anchorage were standing by today awaiting clearing weather. Meanwhile, there was no slack- ening in the hunt for a Korean airlift DC-4 with 38 aboard which disappeared July 21 over the Alas- ka panhandle between Cape Spen- cer and Yakutat, about 500 miles east of Kodiak. Six days later a ski-equipped single-engined Norseman plane vanished it~ thé" same ares’ en route from Mt. Hubbard to Yaku- tat. It earried the pilot and the wife and daughter of millionaire New Jersey scientist Walter Wood, who was conducting experiments on the mountain for thé Arctic Institute. Sixteen aircraft searched 103 hours yesterday achieving 50 to 80 per cent effective coverage, largely in mountain areas. It was planned to continue in the same areas today as weather permitted.
