There are 1,184 civilians and officers, working for the district and its resident engineers. It is es- timated that 1800 engineers were employed on the 65 design con- tracts.” d Pearson has just concluded a field trip through most of the construc- tion projects in the Territory for the purpose of developing copy for state- side publication. At close hand he analyzed multiple construction at Whittier, Ladd and Eielson Air Force Bases, Ft. Richardson and Elmendorf AFB. He was escorting Douglas McCrae, field photowriter for the Pacific Builder and Engin- eer, a construction magazine with nationwide readership. McCrae will author a series of articles jlustrat- ing design and method. Of the trip MaCrae said: “This recent on-the-ground observation of construction meth- ods and working conditions clear- ly indicates that contractors in Alaska are not confronted with insurmountable construction prob- lems. It is obvious that early obstacles have been admirably overcome and that facilities now available to the contractor are suf- ficient to assure him that complet-- | ing a contract in Alaska is no more of a trick than it is in the states.” The technical information of- | ficer states that the Alaska district | of the corps of engineers seeks new ' contractors to bid _on 1952-1953 | projects of the biggest construction | program in Alaska. | Invitations to bid on a wide var-} iety of contracts are now scheduled | and will be released through rou- | tine ' channels.

Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway's pub- lic information office followed this move with a statement that the Reds may be trying to force the United Nations to break off the talks “out of sheer frustration and futility.” The statement was issued a few hours after the Supreme Allied Commander made a proposal de- restarted. Ridgway suggested a new conference site in No-Man’s-Land where delegates could resume dis- cussions of item two of the agenda— location of a military buffer zone. The headquarters release took Communist liaison officers to task for refusing to discuss anything but a time and date for a new meeting. “The significance of this . . . is obvious,” the statement said. “The Reds at the present time are re- sponsible for the callfng off of the truce talks . . . such a turn of events does not help their so- called ‘peace offensive,’ which has been going on for many months now.” The site Ridgway proposed is near the village of Songhyon, six miles southeast of Kaesong. Red China’s Peiping radio to- night called Ridgway’s proposal an “attempt to escape from responsi- bility for the air and ground viola- tions of the neutral zone” the broadcast quoted a Communist newsman C.'T.
