p PROHIBITION
 REPORT WILL
 COME SHORTLY.
Law Enforcement Commis- sion Expects to Report
 Without 'Pussyfooting'

WASHING TON, Oct. 9.-The promise of an early report on Pro- hibition in which there will be mo pussyfooting came from President Hoover's Law Enforcement Commis- sion today when it became known that the wet and dry fight is now dominating the Commissions time. It's sessions have been filled with arguments for and against an inn mediate report on the question.
 Chairman George w. Wiekersham said he hoped the Commission would be ready to report to Con- gress in December. and he added: "If the Commission reaches a con- clusion that Prohibition is not en- forceable I think it will say so."
 It is fairly certain that the Con- mission is prepared to assail poli- tical influence in the administra- ton of justice Already members have attacked this. It will be several months, it is expected, before the body will make complete report.

MUCH IS OWING ITO DEPARTMENT,
 SAYS SHATTUCk
Insurance Expert Tells Chamber of Savings
 to Town byFiremen

Juneau owes a debt of gratitude to the Juneau Volunteer Fire De- partment, not only for the confla grations and loss of property pre- vented, and the safeguards it pro- vides for life and property, but in the money it has been saved through reductions in fire insur- ance rates, Allen Shattuck, local insurance man, told the Chamber of Commerce today.
 Many thousands of dollars that otherwise would have been sent in premiums to the States to in sureance companies have remained in the community just because of the proved efficiency of the Fire Department, he declared, in brief talk on Fire Prevention Week.
 Urges Annual Recognition
 The Chamber might well have an annual Fire Department Day each fall in recognition of the real services that the Bremen render to the community, he said. In all the history of this city, he pointed out, there never has been gener- al conflagration and the losses from fire have been comparatively small.
 "It has been said that Juneau is lucky. While luck may have played part, weather conditions had another part, our luck has been mainly that we have had a Fire Department that got to the scene of the fires in time to hold them to the building of origin, pre- venting conflagrations, and equip ped to cope with the fires" he as- serted
 MT. Shattuck gave some interest ing figures on national fire losses and recited some of the history of the inception and progress of the fire prevention movement. The reduction in the annual fire loss bill during the past few years in- dicated the effectiveness of the campaign. he said He also des- cribed the method used in fixing fire insurance rates in each com- munity
 Fire Chiefs Attend
 Chief Dolly Gray, Assistant Chief o. E. Schombel, Foreman J. S.. MacKinnon and Secretary J. A. Davis of the Department were guests of the Chamber today. Chief Gray said the Bremen are always willing to aid in any civic under taking for the community. It has just completed it's ball park de- velopment, which represents an in- yestment of 5000. and next spring will launch it's playground program.

CHARGE OF BAD
 FAITH IS MADE
 BY H.F. MORTON
President of An c h o r age Chamber of Commerce
 Assails Administration

Anchorage, not only Anchorage but also the people of the entire railroad belt face a really serious situation as result of a breach of faith by the national admins tration," declares H. F. Morton President of the Anchorage Cham Der of Commerce and leading at- torney of that city. in talk before the Chamber of Commerce here today.
 This situation has grown out of the curtailment of train service and rail operations on the Alaska Railroad and the discharge of many employees. Contending that the Alaska Railroad is as truly a gov- ernmental function as the activi- ties of the United States Forest Service, Office of Education, Bu- reau of Fisheries and other Fed eral agencies, he declared until these were put on paying basis it was unfair to reqiure the rail- road to be self supporting.
 Source of Trouble
 The source of the problem, MT Morton asserted. lies in the desire of one member of Congress for the limelight. He, without mentioning r'qy-siiames. declared- MT. Morton in order to get into the calcium light of national publicity, and lay the foundation for a possible Presi- dential nomination, had introduced a measure in Congress for Federal ownership of all railroads.
 When this occurred, opponents of the idea immediately pointed to the Alaska Railroad as a horrible example of governmental railroad ownership and operation resulting in an annual deficit. This man then was obsessed with the idea of putting the Alaska Railroad on paying basis even if 1t broke the Territory Of Alaska declared MT. Morton,
 Is Development Project
 People of the rail belt, he added, regard the road as an agency of the Federal Government which was built to develop holdings of the Government and not to directly earn dividends. In that sense, it is as truly a function of the Fed eral Government as any other agency maintained in Alaska. "Un- til the Government does something to develop that part of the coun-

 By College President

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct. 9.-The American practice of attempting to legislate nor als was today criticised by the Rev. J. A. w. Haas, Pres ident of Muhlenberg College, before the Seventh Biennial Convention of he United Lutheran Church in America.
 We are again living in an age of social legalism. The churches are expending their money, power and influence to cure people from desires of evil through prohib.tory laws. I am contending this is mistaken Puritanism. ex- pending itself in a futile eff fort to make men good by law" said the Rev. Haas.

Plans for the Junior Church bas- lietball league will be completed and those for a senior Inter-Church cir cult formulated at a meeting of team managers at 7:S0 o'clock this evening at the Y. M. C. A. The jun for loop will open at the "Y" one week from tonight so that every thing must be closed up at this evenings meeting and the pairings for the first nights games made.
 Five junior teams were represent cd at a gathering held two weeks ago, these being the championship South Congregational outfit and those from the Trinity Methodist, St. Marks Episcopal, Center Congrega- tional, and First Baptist churches. Since then the First Lutherans have given notice that they will again have a boys team, and it is barely possible that there will be a seventh entry from the Stanley Memorial church.
