ARC Accomplishes
Much In This Area
This Year
* According to District Engineer
John Hudert of the Alaska (Road
Commission the past season has
been the best from the standpoint
of accomplishment since he has
been here.
Outstanding is the Nome-Coun
cil road which united two of the
Second Division's most important
mining centers after a period of
fifty years of production. This is
a 77 mile road.
Second of importance, according
the Mr. Hudert is the Bunker Bill
to Taylor Road which was fin
ished for freighting this year and’
will be completed next year.
Repairs weer made on the Snake
River road from Mile 5 to Mile 19,
putting it in excellent condition.
. Mr.. Hudert . stated that only
general maintenance was done on
the tramway this year.
The U. E. Engineering Corps on
its widely scattered projects this
past season was able to make use
of our road system to great ad
vantage, according to Mr. Hudert,

Truman Seeks New
Power To Control
Govt. Agencies
WASHINGTON, (#)—President
Truman said yesterday prices of
General Motors cars will be fixed
at what the Economic Stabilization
Administrator says they should
be.
The law will be enforced, Mr.
Truman told a news conference in
commenting on the action of the
General Motors corporation in
halting sales of 1951 model Chev
rolets, Cadillacs and Pontiacs af
ter the economic stabilizer, Alan
Valentine, ordered a roll-back to
levels of Dec. 1.
Valentine acted under the De
fense Production Act of 1950. This
grants authority to freeze or roll
back prices and wages.
A reporter asked if Mr. Tru
man’s comments were to toe taken
as meaning government action to
unfreeze the sales freeze ordered
by General Motors. The President
said the government will cross
that bridge? when it gets to it.
Meanwhile, Mr. Truman’s re
for additional wartime powers
was greeted in some quarters as a
sign that the machinery is in mo
tion for all-out mobilization.
The President asked Congress
Monday to approve legislation
that would let him juggle govern
ment bureaus and set up emer
gency agencies, as well as permit
re-negotiation of defense con
tracts.
Senator Magnuson (D.-Wash.), a
member of the armed services
committee, told reporters he thinks
this is only a step toward the full
