BILL |S INTRODUCED
 F0R INCREASING
 PENSION SENATOR ALDRicA, FIRST DlVf~ SION, REQUESTS MORE MON EY FOR olDTlmERS
SENATE HAS MANY BILLS
Several Offices of Territory Desired be Placed in the Elective Class
 Through Measures

JUNEAU March 10-Indications are that the senate of the present legisla~ tive session will be kept busy for some time, forty-seyen measures be ing already introduced for their con sideration by the judiciary committee
 One of the first measures which will come up for consideration is the old age pensions, introduced by Senator Aldrich, of the First Division. Included in the bill was provision covering admission into the Pioneers Home, with relief afforded for destitute cases and the relief of dependent children This measure is designed to replace three acts now on the statute books and if passed will open the Home to women as we'll as men. Roughly. the measure increased the maximum al lowance to men to twenty-five dollars; that for women is unchanged. It also provides a maximum amount of thirty dollars monthly for destitute persons. The significant feature of the meas ure is the fact that it reveals the in tention of the coterie in both houses to establish a territorial board of con trol composed of treasurer, comptrol- Ter and one other member, probably the attorney general.
 A bill creating the elective office Of territorial comptroller will also be in troduced; as will one making the treas u-er's office an elective one. This measure is now being drafted and will be introduced shortly.
 It is understood that the main puT- pose of this measure will be the taking over of all purely territorial admins" trative functions from the offices of the governor and the territorial sec -etary. Among the forty seven bills introduced to the senate by the judi ciary committee some were at the re- quest of the attorney general which include two measures for the protec- tion of fox farmers. the support of the probate code and also the municipal code, one for reindeer grazers and oth- CTS of less importance.

JAMES cARRUTHERS HAS
 EXTREMELY TRYING TRIP

The steam halibut fishing boat, the James Carruthers, Capt. W. Parsons, which put into Seward last month with a cargo of fish, for the purpose of taking on coal. had a very trying experience on he- way south. The ves- sel ran into heavy storm and for sev- eral days was able to make but few miles an hour. By the time Cape Spen- cer was reached the coal supply was exhausted and the fishermen burned he fish boxes, fittings. and stripped the vessel of all wooden articles. The boat put in at Hoonah and secured enough coal to reach Juneau, where the bunkers were filled. Capt Parsons stated that had the trip to Hoonah taken three hours more the vessel would have been in actual distress.

SECRETARY SAYS HIS l. .ORDS ARE VERY
 BADLY MINCED
CANNOT REMEMBER UT G VIEWS ATTRIBUTED TO HIM BY CHAIRMAN

WASHINGTON, March 10-Secre- tary Mellon was quoted recently in the house by Chairman Fordney as stat ing that he had no objection to use of money received from the foreign debt settlements for the payment of a sol diers' bonus after the money was in hand.
 Representative Blanton, democrat, Texas, wanted to know if this did not mean that the former service men would have to wait sixty years, the time which the British loan is to run.
 "The gentleman knows better than that" returned M-. Fordney.
 The committee chairman said MT. Mellon had told him he would prefer that the matter be taken up with the President before another bonus bill was introduced.
 Secretary Mellon, when his atten- tion was called to the statement made by Chairman Fordney, said he could not recall having ever used anything like the language attributed to him. Furthermore, it was pointed out at the treasury that the secretary had al ways taken the position that the prin- cipal of the foreign debt, at least, must ho ,,cad pbau renaid tO redeem liberty bonds.

BOLSHEWSTS STUDY
AMERICAN POLICIES
At Political Laboratory Situated
in Berlin

Berlin, Sept. 21.--Bolshevism has
created a laboratory Of world politics
in Berlin. something new in political
science. This institution has little to
do with musty textbooks and dry lee
turers. 1t sends its investigators to the
scene of interesting political activities
In all parts of the world, and they
bring reports to the official staff which
keeps abreast of the world press and
interprets the information it collects
in terms of international consequences.
Captain Jacques Sadoul, former
French army officer who was senten-
ced to death in France for the part he
played in promoting sedition among
the French marines and sailors who
we're sent against the Bolshevist troops
at Odessa in 1919. is among the ex-
perts on the Bolshevist staff who are
conducting this new laboratory. Jean
Arens, who was wounded by the as
sassin who killed Vorowski, the Rus
sian unofficial delegate at the Lausan-
ne Conference, is another member of
the laboratory staff,
At present the laboratory is much
interested in disseeting Americas for
eign policy. President Coolidge is I'M
der the microscope. His speeches and
official activities are being studied,
along with reports on the possibility
of Secretary of state Hughes resig-
nation from the cabinet American
senator's travelling in Europe are also
being Investigated especially those
who have Russia on their itinerary.

 Authentic reports of Siberian regulations run about as follows: All vessels must enter at Petropov- loysk and secure trading permit there.

REJECTLONS or
 LIABILITY ACT
 FORMALLY FILED
Gamers and Chinese Con- tractors Reject New Elm
 ployers Liability Act.
llnces. r and Magnus Jr. IA.

The beginning Of the operation this week of the new Employers Liability or Workmen's Compensa- ton Act, the Aver Law which was passed by the last session of the Territorial Legislature was marked locally by number of notices of rejection, formally filed in the of- flee of United States Commissioner and Recorder, as required under the terms of the law. All of the rejec- tions so far entered were filed by either salmon canning companies or contractors furnishing laborers to canneries
 Four companies operating canner- ies so far have rejected the law and, according to local attorneys, it is probable that others will tGke sim liar steps. Those filing objections were: Libby, McNeil X Libby, for all their plants; The Thlinget Pack ing Corporation, operating at Funter Bay; Carlson Bros, and the Aux Bay Salmon Canning Company with plants at Paylof Harbor and Aux Bay.
 Coon Dip X Co.,. contractors gave notice of rejection covering their employees at the Libby plant at Yakutat, Thinglet Packing Com pany at Funter Bay, the Hoonah plant at Gambler Bay, and the Pa eiiic American Fisheries at Excur- sion Inlet. Mar Dong X Company, another contracting firm, also for mally rejected the provisions of the law for it's employers.
 The Aver Law, which is the old Workmen's Compensation Act, am plified. covers all businesses, occupa- tions, work employment and indus tries employing five or more persons, except domestic service, agriculture, deirying and railroads operated as common carriers. The amounts for injuries or compensation to depend ants for deaths under the new law are one-third more than amounts under the old act for similar in juries.
 Gamers who have rejected the law said their action was made nee essary owing to the high insurance rates quoted them for their em ployees.
