The Junior Yanks are the result
OF an idea conceived at Fort Sam

a regular club for instruction and
recreation. Although they have a
military plan of organization this is
for the purpose of instruction and

INDUSTRIAL ACCIDENTS
 KILL AND INJURE MANY

Industrial accidents in the United States during 1929 were responsible for 23,00O deaths, B. 0C0,000 injuries, and money loss es totalling a billion dollars. Se- cretary of Commerce Robert P. Lamont said in a speech broad cast recently in a national radio hook-up.
 New York City alone sustained financial loss of $60,C00,000, he said.
 Coincident with MT. Lamont's speech, the American Standards Association made public a state ment by Cyril Ainswor5h, safety engineer for the association, in which he declared that at least 1000 deaths, 125,00 injuries and money loss of $40,000,000 "is the annual toll exacted because of needless disagreements in the industrial safety regulations of the various states."'
 MT. AinsWorth advocated adOp tion of a uniform national safety code.
 Among other things, he said, this would result in 'better me- chanical guarding of hazardous machines.
 The machine tool industry, Ainsworth asserted, is ready and willing to equip all machines it manufactures with safeguards as soon as there is brought about some degree of harmony about regulations as to what such safe guards should ."--LABOR.

They fought the Delegate at every turn and then damned him for not securing more legislation for the Territory. While return ed by large majorities to Con- gress Delegate Sutherland has had the opposition of a noisy and blatant press which claimed to represent the people of AL aska. They never did represent the people of Alaska and it is highly probable that they never will. But with their blatancy they have been able, along with the financial backing of vari- ous corporations to appear be- fore Congress in opposition to legislation for the Territory.
 A large part of this opposition was due to the efforts of cer- tain Republicans. Now that the head of the Harmony" ticket is elected to Congress it will be well that he be given every support during his term of office. In too many instances favorable legislation has been defeated because of the opposi- tion of Alaskans themselves. Therefore it is now time that the entire territory get back of the efforts of it's representative and give him the fullest meas ure of support. The Oregon representatives have secured more favorable legislation and appropriations in the last Con- gress through the united efforts of it's legislators and united sup port than did the State of Wash ington with it's legislators divid- ed and with a divided support at home. It will be we'll for the people of Alaska to think on this seriously.

Long-Legged Look
to Be Essential
Lengthening of Line Will Be
Prominent in Spring,
Summer Outfits

1t is now the Paris beginning of the
summer season. The clothes worn in
the mannequln parades of the next
few weeks are those destined, for the
most part, for you to wear weeks from
now, excluding, of course, the few
models designed for the South.
There are no indications of any
rabid changing Of the silhouette, 9th
er than an emphasis on curving lines,
writes Paris fashion correspondent
in the New York World. Angularity
of silhouette is definitely a thing of
the past. When we are all grand
mothers and can look back over the
pictures of Notwithstanding fash
ions, we'll probably find that in 1880
the fashionable figure looked quite
like human being.
The most important exaggeration
will be lengthening of the line from
waist to ankle. That long-legged look
will be an essential of every spring
and summer outfit, from the tennis
dress which just covers the knees to
the dance frock that trails the floor.
1t is responsible for the maintenance
of the normal waistline in some form
on every single costume.
Skirt lengths themselves will proba-
bly, not be much different than those
you're by now accustomed to. A chart
