For First Time in History Buick Will
Not Take Inventory.

Flint, Mich. Jan. 6.-For the first
time in its history, the Buick Motor
Company plant will not close for the
annual December inventory. In an
nouncing this fact, President Fl. Ii.
Bassett said:
sowing to the continuous overwhelm-
ing demand for our product We are
Obliged TO abandon the annual Decem-

letup whatever in the volume of orders

be added to the record breaking Sep

we have experienced this year.
Orders for immediate delivery are

Aside from the keener competition OF
next year, the industry faces good
many other problems. The need is
pressing for the better training and par
ticularly the better financing OF deal
ers so they can carry stocks during the
slow periods, thus permitting produc-
ton to continue on an even keel.
The used-car problem is undoubtedly
the darkest cloud on the horizon. In
ability of dealers to judge used-car val
ueS properly is costing them tremendous
losses and has eliminated many from
the field. Aside from few of the low
priced cars, about seven out of ten sales
involve a used car, and unless a dealer
is a good trader he invariably allows
more than he should and in many cases
comes out at the small end of the horn.
even after he has sold the new car and
a used car.
The industry is actively engaged in
trying to better traffic conditions. 10
lessen accidents, and to educate law
makers to the need for fair legislation
instead of hampering this new form OF
transportation. One of its jobs will
be to see that the billions of dollars ap-
propriated for highways is expended eff
ficiently and honestly.
However. the manufacturers now
have full knowledge of their possible
markets. and people must use cars be-
cause of their time-Saving advantages.
This is more certain now that cars are
cheaper and better made. that gasoline
is getting cheaper and more plentiful,
that tires are cheaper and Of unusually

car is something from which all the
family benefits, while the truck is some
thing which. furnishes the public with
a more efficient and cheaper means of
moving goods.

Whether or not Indian moccasins shall have free and unrestricted entry into the public schools Of the Terri tary is mater which has been brought to the Federal District Court at Fairbanks for decision in a case entitled Thompson vs. Supt. A. B. Phillips of he Nenana schools and the Nenana school board. The case resulted erom attempts made by MT Phillips and the Board to enforce certain personal cleanliness measures n the Nonana schools, according to reports received today at the office of Commissioner of Education.
 The Board and Superintendent Phil lips have been ordered to appear be. fore Judge Cecil H. Clegg tomorrow and defend their action in denying admIlss to school of children of Thomps-1, who insists, it is claimed, on sending them there shod in the ob- jectlonable footwear
 While the question put up to the court by Thompson Is whether the School Board and Superintendent
 
 from school students wearing mocca- sins Of domestic manufacture. it is rot the moccasins themselves that will be on trial but the odors which emanste thcrefrom. In the Nenana schools were, or are, a number of pupils of Indian or mixed blood wAode standard of personal cleanli- l,o l,1I standard required by the school. The superintendent, supported by the Board, attempted to correct the de- fleets and was in large measure sue cessful until moccasins were reached. When students were forbidden to wear these in school, Thompson ob- jected s.aenuously, despite the fact that the Boards order referred only to wearing moccasins in the class rooms and also an offer of the Board to furnish the necessary suitable foot wear to anyone unable to provide it for themselves. He refused to avail himself of the offer or to comply With ported, that his children were refused admission to the school
 The superintendent and School Board base thoir action on the ground that the. odor which is given off by moccasins of Indian manufacture is and causes discomfort to both teachers and to other students 'n the school The policy Is upheld by the Nenana City Council to which Thompson appealed for relief without avail.
 The action of the Nenana school said Commissioner Hen d1rson, is in accord with regulations issued by his office. The Attorney

FUEL GIVES OUT ON SHIP DURING
 RAGING STORM
Wood Fixtures Burned on Carruthers-Caught in
 Storm on North Coast.

Held in the storm which ragged along tho coast last week until the entire coal supply gave out, when they were forced 10 burn all the loose wood available on the ship, being able to just make Hoonah, without which port they would have been hopelessly in distress, the crew of tho James Carruthers, Captain N. Parsons, big halibut fishing schooner laugh 1t off and call il a day. The Carruthers, of the Canadian Fish and Cold Storage Company Of Prince Rupert, came ln 10 Juneau this week on the way to Prince Rupert With haHlbut catch of 10000 pounds, to take on cargo of coal for the trip south
 According to the men on the boat, the ship put in at Seward early last week and took on a supply of coal, which should have lasted until it reached Prince Rupert Caught in the storm, the boat was able to make only about four miles an hour and when it reached Cape Spencer the en- tire coal supply had been used.
 Cernying out the orders of a cool headed master, who joked of their plight, they said. the crew put to work at keeping the engine room sup Fled with wood. Fish boxes, unne. cessary fixtures, and every possible scrap was used. When the boat put in at Hoonah every bit of wood available had been used and had the trip been five or more hours longer the ship would have been hopelessly in distress, Captain Parsons said
 At Hoonah they secured five tons of coal from the cannery dock, Tor the trip to Juneau. At this port enough fuel was taken on to see the Carruthers safely to Prince Rupert and with a somewhat shaken but nn. daunted crew the ship has left Tor its home port.

NEED MILLION BONDS
FOR COUNTY SCHOOLS
TO FINISH PROGRAM
Board Of Revenue Names
Special Committee To Meet
Board Of Education

Three members of the county board
of revenue were appointed Friday
by the board to investigate the mat
ter of calling special election this
summer to authorize the issuing of
$1,000,000 worth of bonds to enable
the county board of education to com
plete it's program of work on the
county schools.
Chairman D. C. Ball, Jerry Gwin
and Tom Huey were instructed to
confer with a committee from the
board of education, consisting of j.
d. Moore, DIR. Cunningham Wilson,
Mrs. N. L. Bagley and DIR. r. G..
Hewitt, on the matter.
The greatest problem confronting
the joint committee is that of
finances. Some way must be found,
it was said. to pay the interest aris-
ing from an issuance of the bonds
The county's taxation will not be in
creased by the arrangement II
adopted. The county is now con-
tributing the maximum possible
under the legislalation authorizing
taxation for school purposes, it is
said. The legal aspect of the bond
Issue must also be looked into by
the committee.
The greater part of school pro-
gram adopted several years ago by
the board of education has already
been carried out. There are a num-
her of projects remaining, however,
in which repairs to present buildings
or necessary and in which new build
ings are needed. To, complete these
plans, it is claimed the bond issue will
have to be approved by the people.

Col. Wright of Jacksonville
Wants Stigma Removed
From Sailors Names

Col. A. o. Wright of Jacksonville,
Fla, commander in chief of the Con
federate Naval Veterans is In Biz
mngham, registered at the Tutwller
hotel. Colonel Wright's visit to Biz
mingham is one lap only of trip
through all the Southern states in
an effort to accomplish a task for
which h. gave up his practice of law
and later his judgeship.
The, story as related by Colonel
Wright is that Immediately follow
ing the civil war, or in 1861, severa,
hundred mem berS of the navy re-
signed to accept civilian positions.
One hindred and thirty-six of that
number of designations were not &C
cepted, and they were listed as having
been dismissed, and a stigma has
been left on the names of descend
colonel says. He has petitioned Con-
gress to accept the resignation of
these 136 sailors, all of whom are
dead, and remove the stain from their
names and from the names of their
descendants.
All over the southland, the colonel
has met with hearty cooperation on
the part of press and public. He Is
known to many birmingham citizens.
He spoke in this city 16 years ago
at state reunion of Confederate vet
Grams, and was present on the event
of the reunion here eight years ago.
His own history is Intimately
woven around the days of the Con-
federacy. He served with honor in
the navy of the south, and surren-
dered with Admiral Raphael Semmes
at Greensboro, N. c., April rs, 1855:
Colonel Wright wants to tell Bir-
mingham what he has done, and
what he hopes to do. He is here by
invitation, he says, and will remain
for week.
