GEORGE IS
 ID F0RSAKE NAVY
Health Believed ReasOn-WiIl
 Take Foreign Office Post

London. March 19 P-Prince G orge. youngest son of the ruling house Of a nation of sea -goers, is to leave the British navy an life on the rolling waves to take a post at the foreign office.
 Reasons of health were understood to lie back of an official announce ment of the 26 year old princes re- tlrement from active participation in the work of the navy. It was un- oerstood that his constitution was not considered sufficiently robust Tor a strenuous sea career although he has completed F years of naval service already.
 King George, acting on medical advice. is said to have approved the ther. with the concurrence of the prime minister. that the prince should be attached to the foreign office in order to gain knowledge Of the administration and work of the state department.
 In speech at a civil service din- nor the prince said he had found the conditions of naval life unsuited to his health. He spoke with feeling. however, of his regret at severing old associations and leaving his many friends. King George sent message to the guest. who included Minister Stanley Baldwin, expressing personal qualification at the new career of his son.
 Prince George will be the first of the four sons Of King George to en- ter governmental peace depart ment. The Prince of Wales and the Duke of York both served in the navy and the Duke of Gloucester saw service with the army.

HOOVER CAUTIOUS
 IN PICKING AIDES
Moves Slowly in Selecting Law
 Enforcement Commission

Washington. March 19 R)-Pres- ident Hoover is moving with caution in the difficult task of picking those who are to compose his law enforce ment commission and the best in- formation available is that he has not yet definitely decided on single member.
 Scores of names have been pre- sented for his consideration, but many of these already have been eliminated for one reason or an other and he now is described as lit- erally securing the country in the effort 10 find suitable men who will be willing to undertake so gigantic 2 task.
 probably will be more carefully sCrutinzcd by the country than any that has been named. certainly in many years. This will be largely by reason of the fact that an investi- gation of enforcement of the pro- hibition amendment is to be included in it's work.
 
 will be the one to attract the great est public attention and probably will require more exhaustive study than any other. Leaders of the or ganized vets and drys. as we'll as many others will be heard and the testimony of many present and for mer prohibition enforcement officers will be taken.
 To Examine Laws
 In the effort to find the causes of present abuses in the enforcement of the eighteenth amendment the commission will inquire into federal enforcement statutes to determine whether the abuses are inherent in those laws, and, if so. what changes might reasonably be expected to re- lieve the situation.
 Meanwhile there are to be in- creased efforts at enforcement of the Nolstead and other dry acts. En- forcement officials appointed or re- tained by Mr. Hoover are regarded as friendly to the prohibition cause and it is expected that they will he given a free hand in the effort to dry up the country
 President Hoover has not yet an- nounced precisely what enforcement activities now carried forward by the treasury will be transferred to the justice department. nor is 1t clear whether he holds such transfer can be made without an act of congress.
 Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt is in charge of prohibition enforce mcnt in the justice department. and 1t is understoo that when the trans fer is made the scope of her duties as assistant attorney general will be considerable enlarged.
 Because of the very nature of the work it will have to do. the presi- dents law enforcement commission is expected to be composed largely. if not entirely, of lawyers. Mr. Hoover wants to select outstanding men who have had broad experience in studying the general subject of enforcement,
 While professional leaders of the drys and vets will be barred, it may b" that the personal views of the in- dividuals will enter very little into the consideration for or against their appointment.

 Whereas, it was undoubtedly the in ttention of the 1927 session of the Ter lritorial Legislature that succeeding sessions of the Legislature would sup lplement and add to this sum until such sum shall have become sufficient ito build an appropriate and safe build ing;
 Now, therefore, be itr esolved that this Grand Igloo convention endorses the action of the 1927 Legislature in tthe matter above referred to and that copies of this resolution be forwarded ito the speaker of the House and the president of the Senate of the coming session of the Territorial Legislature, converting March 4, 1929, urging that additional sums be added to the orig inal appropriation to the end that the object desired be obtained as speedily as possible

 Now, therefore, be 1t resolved, that this Grand Igloo convention urge upon the Territorial legislature to give their earnest consideration to the es- tablishing of another institution for men and women, somewhere in the northern-western section of Alaska to care for tn eever-growing number of aged and needy citizens unable to gain admission to the present institution at Sitka, Alaska.
 Resolution No. s.
 Endorsing November II as Armis- tice DDay:
 Whereas, November II, Armistice Day, ;commemorates the termination of the World War, and,

THE HEART THIEF" AT
 PALACE FOR LAST TIME


 When Joseph Schildkraut was cast for a featured role in "The Road to Yesterday" there was a certain amount of fencing to do and an expert was called in who instructed him in this ancient art of self defense.
 Despite the fact that the duelling scene in this picture was of short duration, Schildkraut did not dis miss the fencing instructor at the end of the picture, but retained him until he had fully mastered all there was to be learned from a professional swordsman.
 In "The Heart Thief" which is on view at the Palace theatre the last two times tonight, Schildkraut participates. in two duels-one in fashionable Hungarian cafe and
