Congress to extinguish native i
claims.
^ARMY BOMBING RANGE
As the result of representations
made by Delegate Bartlett that lo
cal interests should be heard rela
tive to proposed enlargement of
the army bombing range south of
Fairbanks, the Interior Depart
ment will hold hearings on the
matter in Alaska before a decision
will be made.
•The present bombing area, cov
ering 655,000 acres, is proposed to
be enlarged, at the request of the
War Department, by 600,000 addi
• tional acres. Delegate Bartlett has
reported to the Interior Depart
ment protests from Fairbanks on
the hazards to wildlife in such an
enlargement and believes exten
sion of the bombing range should
be confined to areas not subject
to danger to game and where
there is little or no public travel.
Especial danger to the buffalo
herds in the proposed area is
^feared by residents of Fairbanks
should be the area proposed to be
set aside for a bombing range be
withdrawn by the Interior Depart
ment.

gate Bartlett recently.
The loan brings to six the total
of electrification loans made to the
association since 1941 amounting
in all to $273,000.

^receive $26,300 from the federal
government to be used in plan
ning school facilities, according to
information recently made avail
able to Delegate Bartlett.

vanced by the Federal Works
Agency, anticipate construction of
new buildings at College for mines,
an infirmary, a dining hall and
co-op; also three new Agricultural
Experiment Stations consisting of
buildings for offices laboratories,
barns, sheds, pens, housing, mess

PASSENGERS ON
CANADIAN VESSELS
Passengers may travel between
Skagway and other Alaska ports
on Canadian vessels for three
more months following approval
by the Treasury Department of
Delegate Bartlett’s suggestion that
this be done.
Permission for such travel had
been extended to December 31 of
last year, but under the new order
allowance will be effective until
March 31, 1947. Waiver of the law
forbidding such travel was possi

Flying A “Straight” Line
■ ■ ■ ■
Pilots of super-planes flying at
supersonic speed will have an in
stantaneous check on instruments
when Army Air Forces scientists
work out a regrouping of the in-'
strument panel into a “line” pat
tern. When the gasoline, oil, tem
perature, manifold pressure and
other flight elements are function
ing properly, a graphlight block
will show the pilot one solid line.
If trouble threatens, the solid line
immediately shows a break, and
the pilot knows instantly what is
wrong.
