Anti-Fireworks Bill Dies
JUNEAU, UPi — The Senate re
fused Wednesday to outlaw fire
works in Alaska.
The upper chamber tabled on an
11-8 vote a House-approved meas
ure imposing the ban.
The action kills the bill for this
session.
As the measure passed the
House, only fireworks displays
managed by experienced handlers
would have been permitted. Pres
ent Alaska law permits fireworks,
but they are banned by most
cities.
Opponents of the bill said its
passage would deprive today’s
youth of traditional Fourth of
July fireworks enjoyed by their
parents. Supporters said the fun
is not worth the danger.
Salary of the first Chief En
gineer of the Grand Army was
approved by the Continental Con
gress in 1775 as $60 per month.
Anchorage Mayor Shuffled
Around In Washington Fog
SEATTLE, Ul) — Anchorage
Mayor George Byer had something
to say about Puget Sound area fog
Thursday.
He arranged to leave San Fran
cisco for Anchorage, via Seattle,
at 2:50 a.m. Wednesday. The flight
was cancelled because of fog at
the Seattle-Tacoma Airport. He
transferred to another plane
which landed in Yakima at 7:30
a.m.
He boarded another plane for
Seattle. It circled above Seattle for
an hour waiting for the fog to lift
and finally put down at Port
land.
He and the other passengers
then trooped aboard another plane
that was able to land here about
2:30 p.m.
“They talk about fog at Juneau,
but this has never happened to
me there,” he said.
Dr. Teller Warns U.S. Will
Play 2nd Fiddle If All
Atom Tests Are Banned
LOS ANGELES, WV-The scien
tist known as the father of the
hydrogen bomb says the United
States would become a second
rate power if it accepted an in
definite ban on all nuclear tests
now.
Dr. Edward Teller told a Los
Angeles audience that the nation
instead should seek a halt on air,
surface and undersea tests. He
said the Soviet Union could dis
regard an overall ban by under
ground tests that could not be
detected.
Teller is director of the Uni
versity of California’s radiation
laboratory at Livermore.
