Loren Hamby Walks Free After Unconditional Pardon

CANON CITY Colo Gov John C Vivian pardoned Loren Hamby after a state commission found he likely did not commit the 1937 murder of George Carnes. Hamby, imprisoned since 1939, said he listened to a radio fight broadcast near the Waldenberg filling station when Carnes was killed and insists on his innocence.

Alaska Highway Transfer to Canada in Whitehorse Ceremony

The United States formally handed over the Alaska Highway to Canada at Whitehorse Yukon Territory ceremonies. Brig. Gen. William M. Hoge represented the U S in the absence of Fiorello LaGuardia as Canada received the highway along with airports and telephone service. The project, begun in 1942 and completed in 1943, cost about 80 000 per mile with estimates around 130 million dollars, and involved American troops who built the highway and later marked the transfer with a truck and equipment salute.
