PRESIDENT DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER has set
aside Sunday, May 1, 1960, as Law Day in the
United States. He has urged that the people of the
United States observe the day appropriately “as a
public demonstration of their devotion to the rule of
law as the keystone of peace and order in our national
and international life.”
Law Day seeks to foster a “deeper respect for
law and an awareness of its essential place in Amer
ican life, as weld as to encourage the efforts now being
made to bring about an extension of law as an instru
ment of world peace and orderly progress in all
international relationships for the future benefit of
mankind.”
The President further urged that the objectives
of Law Day be brought to the attention of the public
through the churches, schools, private organizations
and public bodies.
May 1, 1960, will be the third annual observance
of Law Day, U. S. A.
A Law Day program will be conducted here at
3:30 Friday afternoon in the Court Room of the State
Superior Court, with Judge Hubert Gilbert presiding.

Additional Funds
Made Available for
Alaska Housing
JUNEAU, Wl — An additional
10 million dollars for Alaska
housing under the special assist
ance program of the Federal Na
tional Mortgage Association has
■been made available by President
Eisenhower.
Norman P. Mason, head of the
associtaion, announced the Presi
dential action to Alaska’s Con
gressional delegation in Wash
ington.
Gov. Egan said he was advised
of the additional funds to the as
sistance program in a telegram
from Sen. Bartlett.
Funds available under the pro
gram are used to purchase mort
gages on housing facilities built
in Alaska. Bartlett told the Gov
ernor the President, in extending
the special assistance, repeated
previous Administration feelings
“that Alaska look to private
money for the financing program
in the future.”
Previously it had been an
nounced there would be no addi
tional funds made available to
Alaska. Existing money in the
program was expected to be ex
hausted by the middle of this year.
Alaska officials protested on the
grounds private housing construc
tion in the state would be brought
to a virtual standstill because of
a lack of financing.
After a review of the protests,
Mason said he was recommending
that additional funds be made
available.
Walkie-Talkie Electricity
Tested by Military
LOS ANGELES, UFi — A new
way of producing electricity that
could make today’s huge dams
and steam generators obsolete gets
a practical test next month — in
a pack you could carry on your
back.
Soldiers and Marines will try
out under combat conditions a 30
pound back-pack which supplies
200 wats of 24-volt direct current.
The back-pack contains 30 fuel
cells. These cells produce elec
tricity simply as a result of the
chemical reaction that occurs
when hydrogen and oxygen are
combined.
The combat unit, developed for
the Army and the Navy by Gen
eral Electric, produces current for
14 hours. It can be recharged by
replacing a container of hydrogen.
Theoretically, there is no limit
to the size of the cells, nor to the
number that can be hooked up
together, according to R. J. Shee
nounced the development.
