Dec. 22, 1961, Cohoe, Alas.
Dear Sir:
This letter is to advise you
that 1 have been advised by Jim
Reardon, Alaska Dept, of Fish &
Game, that the regulation requir
ing Set Net Stakes to go dry at
a five foot minus tide has been
abolished. That this ruling be
abolished was one of the recom
mendations of the Central Kenai
Advisory Board.
1 have also been advised that
former trap sites that are adja
cent to areas presently open to
set nets above Anchor Point will
be open to set nets on June 7.
Tills is an issue of .much inter
est to fishermen in this area, and
I hope you will print it as soon
as possible.
Sincerely,
EUGENE D. SMITH.
Secretary of Kenai Penin
sula Fishermen’s Co-Op.
Teletype Service
Joins Anchorage
With Greenland
Anchorage and Thule, Green
land, have been connected by
teletype service to facilitate the
ove -the-pole route to and from
Europe, Federal Aviation Ag
ency officials have announced.
The service is a full time, full
duplex, 60 word per minute tele
type circuit, providing the rapid
transfer of control information
from FAA’s air route traffic con
trol center at Fairbanks to the
area control center operated by
the military at Thule. Financed
by the U. S. Air Force, it gives
simultaneous two-way communi
cations between the two control
areas, according to D. S. Wolfe,
Chief of FAA’s Air Traffic Di
vision.
The Alaskan terminal is at the
Anchorage FA A international
flight service station at Merrill
field which is connected by inter
phone with FAA's traffic control
center at Fairbanks.
Previously, lengthy communica
tion delays were encountered in
•.g information concerning
Dying between Anchor
. Europe via the polar
e previous system was
eletype to Resolute Bay
north coast of Canada,
fy radio telegraph < Morse

The new communications sys

Civil Aviation Organization pro
gram to provide standards for
world wide civil aviation for the
nations of the world.
