Snell Urges
Link to Join
Alaska Road
Support for a proposal that a
highway be built to connect the
Pacific coast with the Alaska mil
itary highway was asked of Ore--gon's
congressional delegation Fri
day by Gov. Earl Snell.
A 500-mile highway from Prince
George, BC, to Lower Post YTj
was, suggested by Gov. Snell. Con
struction costs would be shared by
the United States Canada and
British Columbia.::, in : ? : i
? The proposed route follows the
original route suggested for the
Alaska highway. The route was
changed, to its present location,
which is several hundred miles
east of the original route.
The construction ! of ; this link
would expedite the movement of
war materials, ;- ; equipment and
troops to Alaska from supply bases
in the Pacific coast states of Ore
gon, Washington and California,'
the governor wrote. 1 i : i
"Furthermore, toe post-war val
ue of this highway to the Pacific
coast 'is "of considerable import
ance, hot only because of the trade
relations with Alaska and other
stations along ' the route, but it
would be the means of-stimulating
the' tourist trade which indeed is
an important peacetime industry
in Oregon." ; f : v
Traffic Signs , New An extra
warning to motorists approaching
schools is to be painted on the
surface of the road near each rural
Marion county schoolhouse which
is on a paved road, County Engi
neer N. C. Hubbs said Friday. The
road maintenance crew started the
job Friday morning. "School
signs painted on the highway will
be in addition to the signs on posts.

Want Washing Machine Mem
bers of the fighter squadron at
the Salem airbase would like to
feel independent in days to come
when they may be unable to se
cure laundry service, a represen
tative said Friday, so ' they are
seeking a washing machine. In
formation concerning the where
abouts and the availability of such
a rare piece of equipment should
be turned in to Lt Fred F. Hage
man at the field.
Requests Granted Early Before
he had ever asked for repairs to
a bridge and gravel on a road near
his ranch in the Silver Falls area,
the maintenance Jobs had been
ordered. Bill Smith discovered
when he appeared before Marion
county court with his requests
Friday.

Free Courses
Offered Here :
If in Demand
OREGON STATE COLLEGE,
Corvallis, Sept 24 Special expense-free
engineering war train
ing courses will be available to
men and women In the Salem area
for those wishing to prepare them
selves for work in war industries
if there is enough demand to war
rant a class, Glenn W. Holcomb,
professor of engineering here and
state coordinator for the engineer
ing, science and management war
training : program in Oregon, has
announced.
A new bulletin listing 47 differ
ent classes in eight different fields
which will be offered this fall and
winter has just been issued by
the school of engineering, which
supervises the ESMWT. program
in Oregon. The US office of edu
cation 'sponsors this nation-wide
training program and pays all
costs of instruction and incidental
fees.
While most of the courses will
be given in Portland, they will be
organized in other communities of
the state if desired, Holcomb said,
on the same basis as some of those
given this past year in Salem.
Approximately 3600 men and
women have completed various of
these engineering war training
courses since they werf first of-.
fered in the spring of 1941, Hol
comb reports. Most of these men '
and women are now in war in- .
dustries. -.-'..,! ;' ; . .
The new bulletin lists eight dif
ferent courses each in general en
gineering and drawing, industrial
administration and industrial en
gineering, and mechanical, engin
eering; 11 in electrical engineer
ing; four each in civil engineer-.
ing and mathematics; and two
each in high school mathematics
and physics teaching and indus
trial safety engineering.
Women especially are urged by
those In tharge to investigate
these training programs since the
demand is heavy for women to
fill vacancies left by men in these
jobs who have joined the armed
forces." . J-1 . '
Complete information may be
obtained from the dean of engin
eering at Oregon State college.
