REPORT EXPLOSION
IN SOVIET UNION
WASHINGTON UP — U. S. of
ficials said they received a report
Thursday of an unidentified ex
plosion in the Soviet Union east
of the Finnish border.
The size of the explosion was
estimated at somewhere between
50 and 100 tons of TNT equiva
lent—a blast that could have
been caused by chemical explo
sives or a small atomic device,
the U. S. sources said. The first
U. S. atomic bomb used at Hiro
shima had a blast equivalent to
20,000 tons of TNT.

Bureau of I lie Census Estimates
Alaska’s (Civilian Population at 193,475
JUNEAU (J** — The Bureau of
the Census has estimated Alaska’s
civilian population at 193,475
Gov. Egan said yesterday.
That is the figure which will
be used by the Reapportionment
Advisory Board in recommending
changes in the apportionment of
the State’s House of Representa
tives to Egan.
The Bureau of the Census said
the state’s total population figure
of 226,167 also includes 32,692
military personnel.
Military personnel are not con
sidered residents for purposes of
apportioning the House of Repre
sentatives.
The largest election district, the
10th (Anchorage* District, con
tains 68,555 civilians, the Census
Bureau reported. There are 14,278
military personnel in the district.
The State Constitution pro
vides that an election district
shall be entitled to one representa
tive for each quotient or major
fraction of a quotient obtained
by dividing the total civilian
population of the state by 40, the
number of seats in the Lower
House.
Under that formula, the 10th
District, which now sends eight
representatives to Juneau, would
be entitled to six additional seats,
or a total of 14.
The figure is arrived at by di
viding the total civilian popula
tion of the state by 40 for a
quotient of 4,830.8, or, 4,837.
To determine the representation
due each district, the civilian
population of each district should
1 be divided by the quotient, the
| figure representing the number
; of persons each member of the
i House actually represents,
j The State Constitution also pro
! vides that districts having a total
civilian population less than one
half of the quotient, or 2,418,
shall be attached to another elec
tion district within its major
Senate District.
Such would be the case for six
of the state’s 24 election districts.
Those six districts and the esti
mated civilian population in each,
with military figures in paren
thesis, are District 1, Prince of
Wales, 1,767 (5); District 7, Cor
dova-McCarthy, 1,557 (202); Dis
trict 8, Valdez-Chitina-Whittier,
2,379 (465); District 17. Kuskok
wim, 2,149 (152); District 20, Up
per Yukon, 1,496 (123); and Dis
trict 21, Barrow, 1,979 (154).
The Constitution also permits
the governor to change the bound
aries of election districts.
The civilian population for the
other election districts, with mili
tary populations in parentheses,
include:
District 2, Ketchikan, 9,770
(300); District 3, Wrangell-Peters
burg, 4,181 (no military person
nel); District 4, .Sitka, 6,605 (85);
District 5, Juneau, 9,545 (200);
District 6, Lynn Canal-Icy Straits,
2,926 (19); District 9, " Palmer
Wasilla-Talkeetna, 6,162 (26); Dis
trict 11, Seward, 2,956 (no mili
tary personnel); District 12, Ke
nai-Cook Inlet, 5,690 (407).
District 13, Kodiak, 5,367
(1,807); District 14, Aleutian
Islands, 3,504 (2,417); District 15,
Bristol Bay, 3,485 (539); District
16, Bethel, 5,512 (125); District
I 18, Yukon-Koyukuk, 3,324 (773);
District 19, Fairbanks, 33,462
I (9,950); District 22, Kobuk, 3,470
