NOMINATIONS APPROVED BY THE SENATE; PENSION
 BILL HAS BEEN HALTED

JUNEAU, March 24-The first two important measures to be enacted by the Senate this session were passed Thursday in the bill extending jury service to women, with the privilege of exemption on account of sex when so desired, and the so-called "Blue Sky Law" prohibiting the sale of spu- rious stocks. Confirmation of a number of appointments to Territorial offices was also effected by the Sen ate. The nomination of Walstein G. Smith as Territorial Treasurer was approved. The naming of Robert Bloom, Robert Lavery and Morton E.. Stevens, as trustees of the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines, was given the Senate's official sanction. To fill vacancies on the Territorial Fish Commission, whose members terms expire at the end of this month, the Senate approved the appointments of H. E. Ellsworth, of Seward, J. R. Heckman, of Ketchikan, Calvin Hazelet, of Cordova, and B. A. Roselle, of Juneau, who will compose the Commission. John A. Clarke's appointment as Commissioner of Uni form Laws was also confirmed
 In the House sudden halt was called in the progress of the Pioneers pension bill at the second reading of the measure, when an unexpected anxiety developed among the members over the probable cost to the Terri tory that would be involved in the in- crease to the present pension. Rep resentative Foster, of Cordova, point cd out that under even a maximum of $25 a month, rather than the $30 a month allowance provided for in the Shepard bill, the cost to the Territory would amount to $SS,000 biennially. No fight is being made on the measure, however, since it's supporters disclaim any intention of railroading the bill through regardless of expense. The bill was therefore sent back to com mittee for re-drafting while accurate estimates are being prepared.

HARDING GOLF UNPERTURBED
 BY POLITICS
President s Play Can Be Counted on to
 Hole Out

DAYTON, Fla, March 23.-The re- cent assertion made by Senator Borah that the formation of a third party would not be probable in the event that the Republican party adopted a clear and fearless policy, appears not to have disturbed the serenity of the Presidents vacation cruise. Reports of the Borah speech were read by po- litically inclined members of the Pres idential party with interest, but no comment was forthcoming. In fact, the questions of stance. drives, puts, mashie, hits, bunkers and holes are of considerably more importance to the President and his friends at the present time than the intricacies of politics. MT. Harding, it is safe to say, is keeping his eye on the ball, with the idea of long drive down the fairway, and those who observe his form have little anxiety but that he will "hole out" in par.

DEFENSE SEEKS
 TO DISCREDIT
 STATE WITNESS
Radicals Counsel Tries Prove Unreliability
 of Detective

ST. JOSEPH, Mich, March 24.- The defense of William z. Foster, the syndicalist leader opened it's case yesterday against the charges of criminal and revolutionary activity, by attacking the reputation and cred ibility of Francis Morrow, the De- partment of Justice agent who is the chief witness for the prosecution. Dispositions taken at Camden and Philadelphia were introduced in an effort to show that Morrow's repu- tation for veracity was poor, and that he had made attempts to stir up riots at Socialist street meetings.
 Charles E. Ruthenberger, secretary of the executive committee of the Workers Party, was the first witness called in Fosters defense. He tes- tified that there is no Communist Party in America at the present time. Continuing, he gave the his tory of the radical movement from 1S47 to the present, describing at length the theories of Karl Marx.

WATERS ADD PERILS TO
 SETTLERS
Huge Ice Jams in the Missouri River Are
 Great Menace
DISASTER IS THREATENED
Lowland Residents Flee From Dangers of
 lnundation

SIOUX CITY, March 24.-The for mation of new gorge several miles north of Sergeant Bluffs is reported to- dav to have materially increased the flood dangers to the settlers on the overflowed Missouri. Those living in the lowlands of the rivers have fled to higher ground. No great suffering is so far reported among the retu- gees, but the prediction of cold wave tonigh promises to add to the gravity of the situation.
 With the great ice gorge still hold ing and the flood perils to the low lands growing hourly greater many are fleeing from the residential DOT tions of the city. The floods are the result of backwaters in the Floyd river, the ice gorges being piled up near Vermillion, thirty miles north west of Onawa, Iowa, and forty miles south, imperilling property valued at thousands of dollars. Unless the Vermillion jam is broken today there will occur a repetition of the flood of 1881, which destroyed the town. It is greatly feared that charges of dynamite will fail to break the jam at OnaWa.

JUNEAU, March 24. - The fight against the Governments fisheries reserve burst out anew yesterday morning for brief time when Repre- sentative Grant, chairman of the House Fisheries Committee, attempt ed to bring in a committee report recommending the passage of a sub stitute of his own for the original memorial introduced by him at the opening session of the Legislature. The attempt was blocked by Foster, member of the same committee, no meeting of the committee had ever been held and the memorial had not been discussed. Together with Price and Raelson, though the latter had signed the report favoring the Grant substitution, Foster forced continuance of the matter over one day and withdrawal of the Grant report At meeting of the Fisheries Committee yesterday afternoon the discussion ended in a disagreement, and minority report signed by him self and Price will be submitted by Foster today, offering a second sub stltute measure aimed at all reserves and demanding their immediate lh hnJ Jirn 1. .o floor of the House that Delegate Sutherland would speak in favor of the Grant substitute memorial which is virtually the same as the original except that it fails to mention the Territorial Fish Commission. A memorial was introduced by Staser yesterday addressed to Secretary Hoover and Delegate Sutherland ask ing them to confer on the fisheries situation.
 The measure authorizing the ap- propriation of $3000 for entertain ment of the President was passed in the Senate yesterday, and also the deficiency appropriation of $4,5O0 asked by the Governor for mainten- ance of the Pioneers Home. The memorial to Congress asking for a grant of 160 acres of land to Alaskan war veterans, without the usual resi- dence and cultivation requirements and making the right to select and locate such lands assignable and transferable, will probably be passed by the House tomorrow The jury law for women and the Blue Sky Law" reached the House yesterday and was sent to the Judiciary Com mittee Both Houses are busy clear ing away technical bills, among which the amendment of the code is an important measure, as is also that

DANGERS INCREASE
 FROM FLOOD STATUS

 LONDON, March 24. - England's eyes today are on that four-mile stretch of turbid water between Put ney and Mortlake, where the annual boat race between Oxford and Cam bridge Universities is being rowed.
