slant supervision of licensed
engineer he was fired from his job
on July /. Charles 7. Parish. A
licensed engineer, declared in q plea
to the District, Commissioners to
overrule DIR. Bocock's ruling.
In conversation with DR..
Bocock, superintendent of Galiinger
Hospital, Parish, then chief en-
gineer at the institution. said he
called the Doctors attention to the
law, which would require the super
vision of a licensed engineer and
three licensed assistants.
ITO hell with the law" Parish
quoted DIR. Bocock.as saying. You
assume control of that machinery.
The letter was written and an
proved by p. NJ. Greenlaw. inspector
of boilers for the District. and sent
to DIR. Bobock on June IS last.
On receipt. DIR. Rocock said, &C.
cording TO Parish. Beginning with
July your services will he no
longer required. II you are so
afraid to. take a chance on your
license. that you cannot operate this
place without the assistance of three
assistant engineers. then can get
someone who will"
Parish called the Commissioners
attention to the recent hospital
disaster in Cleveland and several
near-disasters in Washington. He
paid special attention to noting the
30-horsepower refrigerating plant,
with it's ammonia tank.
Parish wrote: t'T'he new addi-
ton is about a city block distant
from the main engine room; that
during Is hours of the "a there
is only one man on duty in the
main engine room, and that to
leave there to go to the new ad.
dition would require the main en-.
CINE room to be left without i'm
mediate supervision"
The Commissioners turned the APP
peal over to the Board OF Public
Welfare for attention and Paul T..
Kirby. assistant director, upheld
DR.. Bocock in discharging Parish.
The board felt, Kirby wrote, that
Parish was. all, right as an engi-
neer, but was not qualified to han,
die the job OF chief engineer of the
enlarged plant. Kirby wrote that
Parish approached the matter in
dictatorial. and, to say the least,
very in1Hdicious manner"
DIR. Bocock said that Parish was a
temporary employee of the hospital
and that no one understood that
better than Parish when he was
hired. On several occasions, DIR,
Bocock, said Parish had interfered
with matters. in which he was in
no way concerned, but that the real
reason. for his dismissal lay in the
fact that he was not qualified to
handle the job of chief engineer.

Following the Kellogg Peace Facts have come other moves to insure World Peace. Reams Of paper and pounds of ink go to telling of the aims of various na- tions to secure world peace.
 On the other hand, these same nations are spending more mil lions on armies and navies than is being spent in education to teach citizens to abhor war.
 A few of the billions now being spent on the tools for Mars, if spent in making happy, content ed citizenry, citizenry able to un- derstand other nations and to eradicate greed and selfshneSs, and secure world understanding then only will world peace be as sured.

HIGHWAY GAINS FRIENDS

The extension of Pacific High way from Seattle to Fairbanks is gaining friends each day. The Department of Interior collober- ating with Alaska and Canada gives assurance Of early steps to make certain actual start on the roadway.
 Construction of such a high way will mean immediate work for many Alaskans-if they are employed. The present stulted labor condition will be given new impetus and Alaska1s will be- come more content to remain in the land of their chOice-bring- ing in families and making per manent a residence which is be- ing destroyed by present fishery regulations.
