For'y miles of rugged terrain
'ay ah;ad of Lieutenant Milton
1. Ashkins and Sergeant Ray
mond A. Robert recently, when
laden with suoplies dropped to
'.hem from a B-1S bomber, they
began their trek to Caribou
Creek from the scene of a forced
landing.
Lieutenant Ashkins and Ser-’
geant Robert escaped unscathed
-ftor a forced landing in an 0-38
observation plane from Ladd
Field. The 750-horsepower bi
ds; o came to r;st on a moun
tain side about 20 air miles north
oast of the Brlnker-Johnson
Dredging Company camp on Cari
bou Creek.
The twisting route the Air
Corps pair must follow on foot,
however, is about twice the air
line distance.
Boots, firearms, mosquito net
ting and Army emergency field
nations were dropped to Ashkins
and Robert by Major Harold H.
Carr, acting commander of Ladd
Field, and Lieutenant Ancil D.
Baker in a flight over the ground
ed plane.
Air Corps officers estimate it
will requ.re at least a week for
the men to make their way thru
the treacherous country to Cari
bou Creek landing field, where
they will be picked up by plane
and brought to Fairbanks.
Ladd Field officers are also de
vising plans for salvaging sensit
ive and valuable ins.ruinent in
the damaged observation plane.
The 0-38 was the first Air
Corps plane assigned to Ladd
Field.

President Con
demns Work Ban
WASHINGTON, June —Presi
dent Roosevelt condemned the
barrier of workers from defense
industries because of religion,
race, color or national origin and
termed the situation as one of
“extreme national importance.”
The President, in a memoran
dum to defense chiefs Knudsen
and Hillman, commended the Of
fice of Production Management
for recognizing the seriousness of
reported discrimination against
workers on specific reasons un
related to efficiency and product
iveness. Declared Mr. Roosevelt:
“No nation combatting the in
creasing threat of totalitarianism
can afford arbitrarly to exclude
large sections of its population
from its defense industries.
Unity and Morale
“Even more important is it for
us to strengthen c-ur unity and
morale by excluding at once the
beliefs and practices which we
are fighting abroad.”
Mr. Roosevelt mentioned par
ticularly the reports reaching the
White House that negro work rs
have been discriminated against
in defense plants throughout the
nation. He said he placed full sap
port for his office as Chief Ex
ecutive behind the communica
tion to the OPM urging defense
contracts holders to examine
their employment and training
programs to determine whether
ample provisions are being made
to utilize competent negro work
ers.
All Labor Needed
Hillman and Knudsen had ad
vised defense plant operators that
every available source of labor
capable of producing defense ma
terials must be tapped in, the
present emergency. Said Mr.
Roosevelt:
“Industry must take the init
iative in opening the doors of
employment to all loyal and qual
ified workers regardless of rank,
national origin, religion or color.”
Concluded the President:
“In the present emergency, it
is imperative that we effective
ly and speedily use this popula
tion. I shall expect the Office of
Production Management to take
immediate steps to facilitate the
full utilization of our production
man power.”
