 Speaking of the progress of the business, Thomas George, senior member of the firm, said today:
 The volume of our business in it's sixth year is four times as large as that of the first year. Our stock is three times as large. Ev- cry month shows an increase in the volume of business done and in the stock we carry.
 We started out with the three of us doing all the work. Today it requires eight men working full time to take care of the business. We operate two delivery trucks throughout the day all week long

every month in the year.
 When we started in business, naturally we expected to grow. But our most optimistic hopes did not vision within ten-year period the accomplishments of the past six. Naturally we are proud of this record. But we are much prouder of the fact that while we were growing we were making new friends every day and keeping the old ones.
 We expressed our faith in the future of the community when we started this business. We demon- strated that faith by investing all our savings in it. It has been more than justified by the returns. And as an earnest that our confidence in Juneau is more steadfast than ever, we have re-invested our earn ings in the business to the end that

Juneaus future when they launch ed the enterprise was more than justified.
 Start in Small Way
 Back in 1923, the three brothers, Thomas, Joe and Gus George, form ed a partnership and opened the Quality Grocery Store. It was hous- ed in one half of the shoe depart ment of the Leader Store, owned and operated by M. George, their father. Of course, many of their friends advised against the venture and they were warned many times that the grocery business in Ju- neau is overdone"
 The young men, however, were not to be dissuaded They felt they knew groceries, were willing to work long hours, and had confi- dence that Juneau's stability and prospects for future growth were such that there was fine chance for success in the grocery trade.
 The three then pooled their re- sources and opened the store. They acted as clerks, waiting on the trade, ran a single small delivery truck, and nursed the infant busi- ness along.
 Growth Comes Rapidly Growth came even more rapidly than had been expected. The first years business while not phenom-

we can give the town the sort of first class service to which it is really entitled.
 We are looking forward to the next six years to be even more prosperous for the city and our business than have been the past six. Both are just beginning a new era of substantial growth based on greater utilization of the districts natural resources than has been possible in the past. Our indus tries are on a sound basis and new ones are coming in the very near future.
 Tt is our aim to be in position to meet the increased demand as 1t comes without any let down in either the quality of merchandise we carry or the service we are endeavoring to give to the con- munity."

 The record of their growth is in- teresting. The constant and sub- stantial increase of their invest ment and business is proof that the confidence they expressed in

 Census Riu to Senate
 The census-reappor,ion bill, providing for the taking of the 1ssU population count and reallotmen: of the seats of the house among the states, went back to the senate with no amendments necessary. That was obviated by the success of the swift parliamentary maneuvers effected by the house leaders in getting the alien exclusion" and force bif'' amendments out of the measure after they had been put in by sub- stantial majorities.
 This was accomplished during the most tense session of the house m several years through an amend ment by Representative Tilson of Connecticut, the republican leader, which struck out the two contro- verted amendments and substituted for them the original language Of the bill. If it had not been adopt ed and the original amendments had stood. the bill would have reached the vote on final passage with a provision that aliens shouli not be included in the census fig ures on which house reapportion- ment is to be based, and another to prevent the counting of citizens older than T who are not permitted to vote. The former was opposed by representatives of states having large urban and industrial centers, and the latter by members from the south.
 17 States to Lose
 Under the terms of the bill, r states will lose 23 representatives and eleven states will gain them on the basis of 1880 population estim- ates. The new allotment of seats to be made by the director of the census if congress should fail to act.
 On basis of 4S5 house members and using the estimated 1930 popu- lation, the following states would lose:
 Missouri 3; Indiana, Iowa, Ken lucky and Mississippi each; Ala bama. Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts. Nebraska. New York North Dakota, Pennsylvania. Ten nessee, Vermont and Virginia. each.
 The following states would gain
 California 6; Michigan 1; Ohio, 3: New Jersey and Texas each; Ari- zona, Connecticut, Florida, North Carolina Oklahoma and Washing ton, one each.

Two Issues Remain

Washington, June : P-Consress today was confronted with the rela- lively simple but still difficult task of completing work on two major legislative undertakings which have been marked throughout much of their progress with bitter contro- yersy and sharp political clashes.
 The house, having passed the us-reapportionment bill back to the senate with only minor changes requiring adjustment after extricat- ing itself from the alien exclusion" and force bill'' amendment con- troversies. was called upon to con- sider the revised farm relief proposal worked out after lengthy negotia- tions with the senate.
 Threat on Farm Bill
 That was a task which held lit tie threat of controversy as far as the house was concerned, but a re- vival of the export debenture dis pute was in prospect for the senate because of the decision of the joint conference committee which work ed out the compromise measure to recommend elimination of this plan of farm relief from the legislation.
 Chairman Haugen of the house conference committee was ready 10 move for quick action on the repo,t immediately after the copvening of the chamber today, and Chairman McNary of the senators. expecing house approval without delay. was prepared to bring it before the sen- ate as soon as it could dispose of the contest over the effort to bring the administration proposal for re- peal of the national origins provi- sion of the immigration act.

How Weak Nervous
Women Grow Stronger
Feel Better, Look and
Have Steadier Nerves

If you only knew you rundown,
anemic women - who are dragging
yourself around on your "nerve"-
what a wonderful increase in strength
and health Tanlac will give you, you
wouldn't hesitate a moment about
going to your druggist and getting a
big bottle Of this splendid medicine.
Mrs.A M. Owens, of I7I6 Taylor ST.,
Rt. S, Box "a, Little Rock, Ark, says:
II was SO weak | couldn't walk across
the floor. | had spent a fortune trying
to get well and would be in my grave
if it weren't for Tanlac. Now | eat and
sleep fine and have gained p lbs"
Tanlac is as free from harmful drugs
as the water you drink-only Natures
own medicinal tonic herbs. Druggists
know this and for the past 10 years
have recommended it to men and
women who need a quick "pick up"
that will put them on their feet and
give them a new interest in life.
So confident are the makers of Tan
lac that if you are not helped by it,
you get your money back on request.
