All restrictions to travel over the Alaska
Highway have been lifted. An increase in
travel facilities and accommodations along
the Highway has made this possible. No per-'
mission is required to travel on the highway,
and'the blanket removal of restrictions un
doubtedly eliminates the financial require
ments.

The Canadian government has established pub
lic campgrounds along* the road in Yukon ter- ,
ritory. These are available without charge,
providing cooking and dining, shelters, and
are strategically located near fresh water.
It is suggested that'prospective travelers
not equipped to carrm, make arrangements for
accommodations in advance, in anticipation
of a heavy influx of tourists.

COVER NOR CRUENING S PROCLAMATION'
; During the past year we have witnessed the
magnificent work of the American Red Cross
in assisting victims of disaster hero ^
Alaska and throughout the United States. VTe
have seen the value of Red Cross health and
safety programs, which are constantly being
expanded. Our veterans and their families
have received many vital welfare services
through their local Red Cross chapters, and
field and hospital workers continue to serve
our troops.
Besides maintaining these essential active
itics, the Red Cross is expanding its new
Rational Blood program, which will ultimat
ely provide blood and its derivatives with
out charge to everyone who needs them for
medical purposes.
In order to fulfill its obligations, the
American Red Cross needs the genorous sup
port of all the people. The national goal '
' of the 194:8 Fund Campaign, to begin March 1,
is $75,000,000.
I urge the citizens of Alaska to respond
whole-heartedly in the coming fund appeal.
By giving, you will strengthen the organiz
ation which is devoted to your welfare .
