Only Two Barrow Sled
Dogs Die After Treatment
By Airborne Drugs
ANCHORAGE, (/P)—Nearly 200
valuable sled dogs have died in
a swift epidemic in northernmost
Alaska, but airborne drugs helped
save 300 others.
The Army reported Saturday
that only two animals have died
since March 14 in the wave of
disease which began Feb. 8.
The distemper epidemic, un
usual for native dogs, occurred
in the Point Barrow area on the
Arctic coast where travel in win
ter is largely dependent upon dog
teams.
Military authorities announced
earlier this week that drugs
rushed to the Barrow area by
combined efforts of the Army,
Air Corps and Navy checked
spread of the disease.
Maj. Martin Kadets, Alaska Air
Command veterinarian, said the
Barrow outbreak was a more vir
ulent type of distemper than ex
perienced among dogs in the
States.
“It is only coincidence,” he said
that this should occur while the
Anohorage area is experiencing a
mild epidemic. However, it must
be remembered that the disease
is highly infectious and could eas
ily be carried from one part of the
country tor another. Past cases
seem to indicate that the disease
occurs in about three month
cycles.”

Alaska Visitors
Assn. Membership
Drive In .May
JUNEAU—The Alaska Visitors
Association announced recently
that their first annual member
ship drive would be conducted
throughout the Territory during
the month of May.
“Enough memberships have
been obtained through voluntary
subscriptions to get the organiza
tion established on a firm basis,”
they continued. “All businessmen
will now be asked to join in this
cooperative effort to advertise
and publicize the tourist attrac
tions of Alaska.”
Jim Chadwick, executive direc
tor of the organization explained
that the Alaska Visitors Associa
tion does not ask for dollars
alone but also invites the active
participation of the individual
t
subscribers. A participating mem
bership makes the subscriber
eligible to serve on the board of
directors and to vote for all offic
ers of the non-profit corporation.
“Just a small portion of the
advertising budget of each busi
nessman, diverted to this com
mon effort will enable the Asso
ciation to make the tourist in
dustry the biggest dollar volume
business in Alaska,” Chadwick
said.
