The alternative, apart from move- 'ment of plants by American steel ¥ companies to t'.e Atlantic seaboard, which would mean tremendous costs, would be construction of a smelter at a cost of $10,000,000.

The train, currently the answer to large-scale transport problems in the Arctic for both military and commercial purposes, will move the ¥ equipment from the sub-Arctic ex- ental base at Churchill, Man, to the site about 300 miles north- west. The station, to be established on Ennadai Lake, will be part of the Northwest Territories and Yukon radio system which in 1923 began to supply land communications ser- vice to remote settlements in the north. Its stations keep contact anong the settlements, and some put on programs similar to those heard in more civilized areas. The Army says it takes three weeks to handle one 800-mile round trip, with a stopoff en rpute to drop off suppliés for an Indian settle- ment. The trains take 40 to 50.tons a trip. ; They consist of a commercial- type tractor, four or five sleds and a caboose or home-on-runners known as a Wannegan, an Indian term which the soldiers say is used to describe anything they find it hard to find a name for. The Wan- negan is used for sleeping and eat- ing on a trip that must not stop because of the trouble in getting started again. Until he' is relieved, the driver sits fully exposéd on the tractor, frequently in weather that dips far below zero. Study is being given to protecting him with a cab but there is t over whether it would \ ruin inces of escape if the trac- [@* tor plungeq through ice and water. Meanwhile, the Wannegan is a welcome relief when the alternate driver shows up. Skating Rink At Raglan Planned L. M.
