PAGE SIX Alaska Miners Can Use Help, Saarela Says The importance of aiding the Al- askan miner was stressed by Leo H arela, commissioner of mines, upc is return from Fairbanks where he attended the anti-trust s of the Interior coal operat- ors. Saarela said that most miners at the meeting of the Alaska Miners which he also attended, || some effort should be the federal government to 5 Alaskan producers of ic metals and ores Miners association passed a ion to investigate what might id in the reestablish- metals purchasing de- pots in the Territory. “Various programs that are be- ing carried out by government agen- cies are helpful but as there is no Alaskan program of taking the pro- duct off the producers’ hands, there i tle incentive to mine,” Saar- ela stated that be me one to t of b Miners Busy The mines commissioners said that most miners are too busy trying to make a living to bother with the marketing of a base metal or strate- | — gic mineral. He said it should be up to the government to encourage these individuals by paying them on the spot for their efforts. “After all,” he said, “that is whdt made the gold mining attractive in the early days and there was no marketing problem.” Saarela reports an adequate sup- ply of coal is now available in the Tanana Valley region and that the consumer market there is in good condition. But he says the operators | in the Matanuska area are being hard pressed to fill the needs of the rapidly expanding Anchorage area. He emphasized the needs at Al- aska coal mines for an extensive safety instruction program. A study is being made which may begin a program of safety and first aid by the Department of Mines. Saarela gave credit to unidh safe- ty committee inspections at mine properties for the excellent saietyl record of the past several years.

S. and allied military officials in Europe, including General Eisen- hower, said he “was glad to find that all those that I have talked to were very alert to this matter of the importance of air power” in Europe. Finletter added he thought there was a “general recognition that while it is absolutely necessary to have the proper number of divisions to hold the line, we must have pre- dominate air power to gain air sup- i and to keep an enemy off the back of our troops.” SEVEN HORS!POVIER 55 POUNDS ¢ TOTAL WEIGHT It’s the 7-55, built by McCulloch, the world’s largest build- ers of power chain saws.
