MORE OFFICERS TO BE ASSIGNED
 TO COMMISSION
ONE LlENTENANT ASSIGNED AND TWO RECOMMENDED FOR
 DUTY WITH CONN.
(From Juneau Empire.)

One additional officer has been assigned and two others recommend ed for assignment to the Alaska Road Commission fr)lc :he Corps Oi !: 3it'e'', with .->'iuar.ers a Juneau, 1t was announced today by Lieut. H. E. Fisher, Disbursing Offi- cer and Secretary. This is in ac- cord with a policy recommended to the Chief of Engineers by Colonel James c. Steese early last year and renewed again this Spring.
 Lieut.. Alto Praeger, who has been attached to the office of District Engineer at Baltimore for the past two years, will complete his tour of duty there on July 31, and is under orders to report to Juneau for duty with the Commission. He will arrive some time next month, Gin AugusD.
 Lieutenants F. A. Petit and A. T. Bell, of Illinois, who graduated last May from West Point Military Academy, have been recommended by the persannel officer of the En- gineer Corps for assignment to the Commission. It is believed that the assignments will be made in accord with the recommendations.
 Early in 1924, Colonel Steese for mally submitted a program to the Chief of Engineers asking for the assignment of young officers of the Corps to Alaskan duty. He sug- gested that from two to six of them who had completed their three-year post graduation course of instruc- ton with district engineers, or else where, be sent to the Commission together with a like number of of ficers just graduating from the Milf tary Academy. This recommends tion was repeated again this year and was favorably regarded by Wash ington officers.
 The main purport of such assign ments, Col. Steese said in the pro- gram outlined to the Chief of En- gineers, was to give the officers so assigned instruction and experience in engineering department methods, reconnaissances, exploration and other field and office duties. He emphasized the fact that such expe- rience would be of material benefit to both the officers and the Army generally in their future Engineer ing Corps duties.
 Among this years Military Acad- emy graduates, of the 30 ranking students going to the Engineer Corps, two, C. E. Saltzman, son of the Chief Signal Officer of the Army, and s. Weston, of Maine were recommended for assignment to Oxford University. E. w. Gar bisch, All American football player, picked for center by Walter Camp, was one of the graduates, being giv- en an assignment to an engineerig regiment.

Two Make Escape
AS Flames Rush
Over Motor Yacht

Provincetown, Mass, Sept. =
(AP)-The thirty foot yacht Mic
mac of the Quincy Yacht Club
caught fire in the harbor today and
burned to the waters edge, in a few
minutes. The two men aboard
saved themselves from the sudden
rise of flames by leaping overheard
and were picked UP by a companion
yacht. The fire, which spread rapid
ly over the craft, was caused by the
explosion of an oil stove in the cab
ing.
charles and John Laing of Brain
Tree, part owners Of the ygacht, first
crawled to the bow of the boat and
then tried to fight the flames with
chemical eXtinguishers, but the
tunes from, these nearly overcame
them and they finally jumped into
ire water. Eagle boat number 46

or the crew were ashore with the

called the assembly to order, and b.
Senator Raoul Dandurand of Canada
whom the assembly elected it's presi-
dent. Statesmen from fifty lands
established their first contact of the
session to review the worlds affairs.
M. Painleve made it clear that
when satisfactory security has been
achieved by the negotiations between
the allies and Germany, and other
desirable regional guarantee pacts
have been perfected, the council of
the laglue of nations should invite
the powers to a conference looking
toward the reduction of ornaments.
Discussing the protocol, NJ. Pain
leve said it has failed of ratification
chiefly because of the refusal of some
of the powers, including England, to
accept the system of penalties
against an aggressor state therein
provided. He boldly suggested the
creation of modified protocol which
would not Immediately bind all the
countries of the world by the same
universal formulas, but would in
clude series of regional pacts be-
tween states whicha are perhaDs
prone to conflict, leaving all other
members of the league bound by the

death in one of its cruelest forms
on one of its own members today.
A body, identified as that of Nor

gangster, was found burned to a
crisp in the wreck of burned sedan
automobile early this morning. He
had been shot four times through
the body, and imprisoned in the car,
with his wrists tied behind his back
before the car was set ablaze. Gross
man, police said, had a criminal rec
ord, including numerous arrests in
connection with shootings. Revenge
for violation of one of the unwrit-
ten tenets of the underworld, po-
lice believe. probably was the motive
for the crime.

Brann to Make

Former Mayor Brann has announc-

Democratic nomination for governor
next year. Coming al it does at such
an early date, and within a few days
of the published rumor that Hon. Full
ton J. Redman of Ellsworth was being
urged to seek the Democratic nomin-
alton for governor, some are asking
if Brann is adopting the tactics Hon
w. r. Pattangall used on him last
year.
But this is denied by friend of the
Lewiston man, who declares that
"Pattangall had nothing to do with
it," He continued: Mr.. Brann has
been considering the matter for sew
eral weeks. He has been urged by
leading Democrats from all over
Maine to announce his candidacy. 1t
was his intention to wait a few
months before making his official an
nouncement, but on the advice of
State Committeeman Henry Z. GoSs

he decided to act at once. That's all
there is to it"
All thoughts reverted to the little
conference of Democrats at Water
vile where Pattangall announced his
candidacy for the nomination for
governor, after Messrs. McGillicuddy
and Brann had left for Lewiston. be-
lieving that the stage was all set for
Brann for governor.

healed by Brann presiding and intro
