Coming to Fish
Tod Powell, long-time outdoor
columnist for the San Francisco
Chronicle, expects to come to Jun

ber 1, according to word received
by Steve Bancroft, Pan American
pilot in the Pacific.
Bancroft spent two weeks fish
ing in the Juneau vicinity last
month and has persuaded Powell
and Joe Fessio, PAA Pacific-Alaska
division sales manager, to join him
on another trip.
All three" are fishing enthusiasts.
They expect to be here about two
weeks, Bancroft 'skid.

Seeds from Alaska
Trees Re-Forest
European Areas
Carrying on a business which he
said was established in 1871, and is
the only one known of its kind, F.
E. Manning of the Manning Seed
Company of Seattle, is in Juneau for
a few days.
The company collects seed in
Alaska for re-forestation in Euro
pean countries. It also does con
siderably re-forestation, scattering
seeds by plane, for lumber com
panies in the States.
Manning said his grandfather, C.
H. Manning, established the enter
prise in 1871 at Fort Vancouver,
which was then Oregon Te’-itory.
The second generation Manning —
W. P.—is still associated in the busi
ness.
Norway, Manning pointed out, has
had particular success with spruce
seed from this area and Iceland has
found spruce and hemlock seed
from Alaska superior to that form
erly imported from the Scandina
vian countries.
On his present trip to Alaska
Manning said he was locating col
lection areas for seed shipments to
Scandinavia of spruce, cedar, hem
lock, and lodgepole pine. Collec
tions will begin'when the seeds are
ripe, probably the second week in
September.
From Juneau Manning will go to
Haines, Cordova and the Kenai
Peninsula.
Dense Clouds
Halt Search
For Planes
(See Page 1 for account of the
Air Force bringing out four
marooned explorers).
Search operations for a missing
Canadian Pacific Airline transport
and a missing Norseman aircraft
in the Gulf of Alaska and St. Elias
Range were almost at a standstill
:oday.
Cloud ceilings of 800 to 1,000
feet that extended up to 14,000 feet
sept 21 search planes on the
'round this morning according to
J. S. Coast Guard headquarters,
:oordinating agency for the num
erous air groups in the search.
Planes were in readiness to re
sume flights as soon as weather
permitted.
The Norseman, piloted by Maur
ce King, disappeared while en
route from the main Arctic In
stitute camp -on Seward ~"Gls*ciei
n the St. Elias Range. Aboard
were Mrs. Walter A. Wood and
laughter, Valerie, who had been
visiting Walter Wood. Wood is in
sharge of the research expedition,
making glacier studies of Malas
pina and Seward Glaciers.
King was due to return to
Yakutat July 26 or 27 but failed
to show up.
Search operations for the Can
adian transport which was last
reported off Cape Spencer at 11:17
p.m. July 20 were extended to in
clude the Norseman.
Spotted Signal
On Saturday, a C-47 aircraft of
the 10th Rescue Squadron, Flight
A, piloted by Lt. Col. Wallace Wal
ton, spotted a signal on the snow
at the Hubbard Glacier camp at
the foot of Mt. Vancouver, which
read “Norseman?” He landed and
picked up Wood: his 20-year-old
son, Peter; Robert Bates of Exeter,
N. H.; and Nicholas Clifford, be
lieved to be from Minneapolis,
Minn. The Woods’are from Far
Hills, N. J.
After breaking the news oi
the missing Noresman to Wood
as gently as he could, Colonel
Walton flew the party to Yaku
tat. Maynard Miller, in charge
of the Juneau Icecap Research
Project, joined Wood. Together
they flew in an Air Force plane
over the possible routes that
King might have taken on his
fateful flight.
Miller arrived back in Juneau
yesterday. He had been associated
with the Malaspina Glacier studies
in 1948, the year the project was
inaugurated. King had been the
expedition pilot that year and for
the succeeding years. Miller had
flown with him a great deal.
King Skillful
Today Miller said, "Maurice
King has a background of 23
years ski flying experience and
over 8,000 hours in it. lie is a
resourceful pilot and we are
pinning our hopes on that. It
was known that Mrs. Wood
planned to take some aerial
photographs on the flight and
for that reason King may have
been off his regular route.”
The aerial distance between the
Seward Glacier camp and Yaku
tat Is approximately 60 miles.
Wood was stranded at the Hub
bard Glacier camp expecting the
Norseman to return there and
pick up his party.
In seeking both the missing air
cralt, search flights were made
Saturday from Cape Spencer
northward to the Kenai Peninsula
covering Gulf of Alaska water
areas and also the glacier and
mountain regions.
All clues to the missing CPA
plane have petered out. It was
bound from Vancouver, B. C. to
Anchorage on the first leg of a
flight to Tokyo with 38 persons
aboard.

Hope Dims
For Finding
Lost Plane
Six Loggers, Pilot Miss- -
ing 2 Days Near
j Vancouver
VANCOUVER.
Wt—The slim thread of hope for
the safety of seven persons aboard
a missing Queen Charlotte Air
lines plane hung today on the
i chance it may have put down two 4
days ago on an isolated beach.
The chartered seaplane, carry
ing six loggers and the pilot, dis
appeared shortly before nooh Sat
urday on a 75-mile flight from
Vancouver Island's Muchalat Arm
to the settlement of Tofina, both
on the west coast. The island lies
off the mainland of British Col
umbia.
Nearly a dozen Canadian and
American search planes criss- *
crossed the area yesterday but
found no trace of the Norseman
seaplane. The search continued
today.
Resuce officials said there was a
possibility the pilot, Capt. E. C.
(Ted> Williams, Zeballos, B. C.,
might have been able to land on
an inlet at a remote beach if his
plane developed engine trouble.
Williams was believed to have ^
been flying an overland route T
close to the rugged coatsline.
The airline identified the pass
engers as J. Palmer, ,K. Mugridge,
L. Larson, A. Costley, C. Warne
and R. L. Brown. Their home
towns were not known.
Hanford Elected
Mayor at
Wrangell Picnic
Fred G. Hanford was elected

terday at the first annual Wran
gell picnic held at the Auke Bay
recreation area.
Named to the council were Dr.
W. M. Whitehead, Lew Williams, ^

It sharply rebuked the military
for wasteful manpower and pro
curement piactices. Mahon is
chairman of a subcommittee that i
wrote the bill after several
months of hearings.
More than half the bill’s total
is for buying military "hardware”
—tanks, planes, guns, rockets,
weapons and other supplies for a
military manpower force of 3,500,
000.
About $15,000,000,000 is for air
craft and component parts to give
this country what the committee
called "the most powerful striking ‘
force ever placed in the hands of
any nation.”
The overall objective of the huge
outlay of funds, the committee
said, includes:
“To build sufficient forces as
scon as practicable to act as a
delcrcnt to further aggression;
to create sufficient power to
prevent disaster in the event war
is forced upon us. ,
A summary of amounts follows:
Army: $20,125,574,665, a cut of
$685,321,500 from what it wanted.
Navy: $15,552,143,225, a cut of
$194,272,000.
Air Force: $19,854,128,000, a cut
of $647,015,000.

Election Tactics
Probe Stymied
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4, — W—
Prospects appeared dim today for
any quick Senate action to halt
election campaign tactics a ^sub
committee has denounced as “des
picable.”
Even Senators "who favor such
action said they need farther
study of the situation—and on
a broader basis—before starting
a drive for new legislation and
a revision of Senate rules.
These proposals were urged yes
terday by a Senate elections sub
committee which investigated thfe
1950 Maryland Senatorial election
campaign. In that campaign Sen
ator John Marshall Butler, a Re
publican, defeated the veteran
Millard Tydings, a Democrat, by 1
some 43,000 votes.
