“HOT SUITS” STIR
TALK IN STATES
The proverbial bug in a rug
was scarcely snugger than the
members of Major Dale V. GafT
! ney’s "underwear detachment"
which had put the stamp of ap
proval on the Air Corps’ new el
| ectrical “hot suits” recently.
Decked out in their long wool
en interwoven-coil-heated undks
! and similarly wired felt shoes
and g >ves, the full crew in a Fly
1 ing Fortress bomber which com
p! ted a 1500-mile non-stop round
trip from Fairbanks to Point Bar
row, was virtually the talk of
I t-h-. nation according to dispatch
es of the Associated press.
Outside readers found at diffi
| cult to believe that “grown up
.soldiers would be flying around
in A’aska in their underwear.”
Air Corps officers pronounced
I the “hot suit" test “satisfactory,”
! however, and may even break
their rigid rule on “no pictures
of experimental operations” to
prove that it can be done, modes
ty permitting.

Develop Recreation
For Income, Governor
Advocates In Report
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15—Gov.
Ernest Gruening of Alaska in his
' annual report to Secretary of the
Interior Harold L. Ickes declares
that one of the most obvious
methods of increasing the Terri
torial government’s income is in
1 the development of recreational
attractions.
The Governor, in the report
made public recently, calls Al- j
a-ka’s scenery “literally unmatch 1
ed" in this hemispb ire.
He said the Territory’s econ
omy “rests none too securely’’ on j
two props, fishing and mining, j
“It is the task of far-sighted j
i statesmanship in Alaska to devel-.
l op new activities if the Terri-1
! tory’s economy is to be maintain-j
i'd and to grow,” Gruening de
clared.
The Governor reported the Ter
ritorial treasury had a balance of
$656,685 at the end of December j
after disbursing $365,880.
Shipments Down
Annual shipments out of the,
Territory were down $9,000,000
this year. They totaled $63,245,-1
951. Purchases from the United
States amounted to $43,827,202.
The report said pink salmon1
value was down $7,500,000 to $9,-;
740,427.
The Alaska Railroad carried
29,510 passengers for a passenger,
income of $264,715. Freight rev
enues brought the total to $3,058,
j 055 which was $341,663 above op
i erating expenses.
Planes, the report said, carried
31,435 pass'eng rs 5,745,894 miles
and hauled 4,315,660 pounds of
freight.
Untaxed Categories
The Governor declared devel- ,
opment of regional attractions
was needed to bolster govern-;
m ntal income because “nowhere
but in Alaska are vast categories
of occupations and individuals
wholly untaxed.”
Income is needed the Governor
j said, so that Alaska could “move
j toward assuming its place as a
'self-sustaining, se’f - governing
community by gradually shaping
, its own destiny.”
Gold produced during the year
total d $20,951,797.
NOTICE j
Because I have been unexpect- 1
edly called away to the Pilgrim
Springs. There will be no servic
es held in the Catholic Church
cn Sunday, January 26th.
Rev. J. McHugh, S. J.
