Twice, Magnuson said, the Ca
I nadian government has turned
! down American offers to partici
pate in financing an overland com
munication through British Colum
bia to Alaska and the Yukon Ter
ritory.
“We went to Ottawa in 1943 and
offered to build a railroad from
Prince Rupert, B. C., to Alaska
and they told us if we had that
much steel, they would prefer to
get it in the form of sheet steel to
build their ships,” the Senator
said.
Earlier this year, he said, he
went with Alaska Governor Er
nest Gruening, “at the suggestion
of President Truman and Secre
tary of State Byrnes” to arrange
for the establishment of a com
mission to allocate costs of con
; struction of a highway between
! Prince George and Whitehorse, Y.
T.
I “We were prepared to suggest
that the United States contribute
a third of the cost and that the
other two-thirds be divided be
tween the B. C. provincial govern
ment and the federal government.
British Columbia was willing; it
has always been willing. But Ot
tawa said no.”

For Good Printing Call Main 125
In the era before Alaska Airlines’ big,
multi-engine Starliners went into service,
the task of moving a dragline to a new
location was a tremendous one, often
involving sledge, riverboats, and ship
ment Outside and back.
Now, moving day for a mine means
hours instead of months, thanks to the
mighty carrying capacity of the Star
Hners.
Not everyone in Alaska moves mines.
But nearly all Alaskans ship something,
even if it’s only a tiny package. And
experience has shown that shipment by
Alaska Airlines is the swiftost, surest
means of transport available.
All Starliners carry air-freight on sched
uled runs. Special aircraft are available
for specialized moving jobs. Contact your
nearest Alaska Airlines agent for rates.

'Debates Various
| Proposals
(By Max Harralson)
LAKE SUCCESS, (/P)—British
delegate Philip J. Noel-Baker to
day described a Russian proposal
for a United Nations troop inven
tory as “inadequate” and served
notice that Britain would offer
amendments to broaden the scope
of inquiry.
Declaring that the Soviet resolu
tion in its present form would ap
ply only to the big powers, Noel
Baker said that for this reason
alone it was “seriously defective.”
“It could falsify the collective
system of security of the United
Nations from its very beginning,”
he said.
“If we need information to make
agreements,” he said, “we need in
formation from all 54 of the United
Nations members.”
Noel-Baker spoke before the U.
t N. assembly’s political committee
i as it resumed debate on conflict
■ ing Russian, British and United
States proposals for reporting in
formation on troop disposition
throughout the world.
FIRE CLAIMS PART OF
LITTLE CREEK BUNKHOUSE
Fire claimed part of the Little
Creek bunkhouse this morning ac
cording to officials of the U. S. S.
R. & Mining Company, which
owns the “Million Dollar Hotel,”
as the building is familiarly
known.
The fire was confined to a small
addition of the building, but as
the story was “mukluk telegraph

I some until the entire building was

destroyed. Damage was light ac
cording to officials of the com
pany.
Maisie—I never go out with the

Daisie—If I were you, I would
