The needs of Alaska for addi- j
tional Coast Guard vessels to pro
tect Its shipping are fully recog- j
nized by Capt. Hinckley who said
Division headquarters are working
for and hopeful of augmenting its]
fleet with newer and larger ships
for local service. Two or three
new cutters are now under con
struction and it is expected with
their completion that at least one
more vessel can be obtained and a
different assignment arrangd for. j
“We hope that it won’t be long
before we are able to station one
of the larger cutters in western
Alaska waters,” he said. “The need
for a larger and more modern ves
sel for the Juneau station is ap
parent, and we are working toward
l that end. You have been very pa
Jtient, and if you will so continue
! for a while longer, I am sure we’ll
! accomplish what is needed.”

' finely here. Late turnips were j
| packed in sand the first of Oc- j
; tober and taken out in May (of;
I this year). They were about 50 j
; per cent good. Turnips left in!
■ the ground were relished by the j
! native children this spring.
