French Charged With
Firing on Russian Plane
LONDON UP> — The Soviet
Union charged Thursday a French
military plane opened fire twice
on a Russian plane carrying So
viet President Leonid Brezhnev
on a visit to Africa.
Moscow radio said Andrei A.
Gromyko, Soviet Foreign Minis
ter, had informed the French Em
bassy in Moscow the attack took
place over the International
waters of the Mediterranean,
about 80 miles sorth of Algiers.
Brezhnev is making a four-day
goodwill visit to the newly in
dependent African nation of
Guinea, which used to be a
French colony.
The French in recent months
have been exceedingly touchy
about ships and planes heading
for Algiers or Tunis, on the
ground that many have been car
rying weapons and ammunition
for the Algerian rebels.

Highway Bulletin
Receives Criticism
From Sen. McNabb
JUNEAU W—A mimeographed
information sheet designed for
distribution to employes of the
State Division of Highways came
in for some criticism on the floor
of the Senate Thursday.
Sen. George McNabb brought
the attention of the Senate to
the publication called “Alaska
Highway Bulletin.”
McNabb read portions of a
“letter from the boss.” written by
the State Highways Chief T. D.
Sherard, in which Sherard said:
“Through the news and infor
mation which will appear on its
pages in the months to come, wo
feel sure there will come about
a closer unity of purpose and
direction and an increased aware
ness of the importance of our
work.”
After reading the passage, Mc
Nabb guided the Senate to oa?e
seven and two comments which
appeared concerning personnel in
the Valdez District Highway Of
fice.
One of the comments concern
ed a new employe “who cuts a
mean (but exciting figure) both
in the office and on the newly
developed ski slopes.”
The other comment read:
“Vital statistics of our division
show that we’ve had no marriages,
births, etc., but with the good
looking unattached girls we are
getting throughout the system
the chances of wedding bells
seems very likely.”
McNabb said he had no concep
tion of the amount of secretarial
work which went into “this gar
bage or how much it actually
cost, but this hits an all-time
low.”
The Fairbanks Democrat asked
that the Senate appoint a com
mittee to “determine why this
was done in the first place and
how it can be prevented in the
future.”
Sen. B. J. Logan (D-Cordova)
took the floor to say that publi
cation of such House bulletins
were not unusual, and then he
added:
“And speaking of the pretty
girl, Sen. McNabb, we all know,
is the one person in the Senate
who has an eye for beauty.”
McNabb replied hastily:
‘T knew if I stayed in this
Senate long enough, someone
would say something nice about
me.”
Senate President Frank Peratro
vich wrote an end to the dis
cussion by appointing McNabb
and Logan as a committee of two
to look into the matter.
Ever wonder how heavy a cloud
is? The average cloud weighs
about 300,000 pounds.
