Alaska's Mining 1
Outlook Is Most
Favorable In \ea.rs
JUNEAU, l#> — Alaska’s Com
missioner of Mines says the ter
ritory’s mining outlook is the
most favorable in years.
Commissioner Phil Holdsworth
listed these factors on the rosy
side Wednesday in his biennial
report to the governor:
Prospecting is increasing to
such an extent and geologic con
ditions are so favorable that dis
covery and development of oil •
and uranium in Alaska is “in-i
evitable;”
Base metal mining interest is
on the increase and new opera
tions and increased production
appears certain;
The prospector is coming back,
with the past year almost a
record one for number of pros
pectors in the fields;
Never have prospectors had
such good transportation and
such scientific equipment.
On the other hand, he said,
Alaska mining calls for aid to
prospectors; more mineral re
sources information, and clearing
of land problems.
“Still more prospectors are
needed,” he said, “real, down to
earth, hard-working prospectors.”
Alaska Man Represented
In Stateside Divorce
Action By Tape Recording
DENVER, (J*) — An Alaska man !
used a tape recording to appear
for him yesterday at a hearing on
his wife’s petition for divorce.
District Judge Joseph E. Cook
had opened the hearing on Mrs.
Vera L. Gay’s petition when a
special delivery package from
Anchorage arrived.
It was a recording of Earl L.
Gay’s voice and it was played for
30 minutes while court and attor
neys listened. Gay said he would
not contest his wife’s suit but
asked court permission to make
regular visits to their son, Steven,
aged three.
Judge Cook appointed an at
torney to represent Gay and al
lowed 15 days for a possible move
to contest the suit. The Gays were
married Dec. 1, 1950 at Gulfport,
Miss.
WEATHER FORECAST
Cloudy with snow tonight and
Saturday. Southerly winds in
creasing tonight to 20-30 mph
with higher gusts. Low tempera
ture expected- tonight 27, high

“DEW” Radar Line Will
Need Only 1,000 Men
To Keep It Running
DETROIT, UFi — A new radar
line, stretching 3,000 miles over a
northern expanse of the United
States and Canada, will be run
by less than 1,000 men, Dr. John
A. Hannah, president of Michigan
State College, said Wednesday.
Dr. Hannah, also chairman of
the United States section of the
Permanent Joint Board on De
fense for the U.S. and Canada,
addressed the Detroit Rotary Club
telling them:
“New types of radar equipment
will make it possible to man the
line with less than half of the
manpower needed to sail a battle
ship.”
Hannah was speaking of a “dis
tant early warning line” which
now is under construction near
the 70th parallel. It is expected to
be in operation soon.
He said construction and sup
ply is a tremendous problem in
the wild, ice-covered land stretch
ing from northwest Alaska to
Greenland.
“Two planes today,” he said,
“can carry the explosive force
equal to all the bombs dropped
in World War II. It must be as
sumed the Russians have wea
pons as least as good as those in
the United States” said the edu
cator.

Recommendations To
The Legislature
Continued from Page 3)
publication of *an annual report
on Mineral Resources of Alaska
as an aid to those currently en
gaged in mining activities.
We are strongly opposed to any
and all Government in business
in competition with private inter
ests, especially where adequate
civilian services are available.
We urge the study of the possi
bility of using the unemployed in
a long-range road construction
project, such as the extension of
the International Highway—Mex
ico to Nome, thus relieving the
strain on the Unemployment Com
pensation Fund.

addition to 31Vz% of royalty and
37!/£% of rental paid to the states
from production and leasing on

SOLVED that legislation be in
augurated to provide for retention

I leasing to be paid to the Territory
of Alaska by the Federal Govern
ment (the latter agency bearing

leasing and production), for use
in the General Fund.
