Appropriation
t(>P) Spacial Washington Service'
WASHINGTON (A1)—The House
appropriations committee recom
mended today the signal corps
spend $1,804,000 on the Alaska
Communications System during
the fiscal year starting Juyl 1.
The amount is $1,061,000 more
than the system was allotted for
the current year and equals the
President’s budget.
“It now becomes necessary,”
the committee said, “to envisage a
system of sufficient capacity to
continue its present duties and be
capable of serving an increased
military population in time of
peace and susceptible of conver
sion to military use in time of
emergency.
“Demands, which in a large part
are self-supporting, are increasing
from many sources and especian>
from the air forces—military anu
civilian—that operate in the Ter
ritory and require communica
tions between airports and for
weather information.”

FAIRBANKS MEN ENJOYING
ALASKA VACATION
Milton Bell and Charles Gray,
both employees of the Daily News
Miner at Fairbanks, are in Nome
j this week, enjoying a vacation
; jaunt through Alaska.
The two boys left Fairbanks by
plane for Tanana where they

the river ports down the Yukon
as far as Marshall. They chartered
a plane to Unalakleet where they
remained for two days, then tak
ing a plane for Nome. The sched
ule called for a boat trip from
Unalakleet to Nome and thence to

joying Nome and the surround
ing fishing streams immensely.
They have also succeeded in
making themselves useful around
the shop. <The Nome Nugget*.
