By FRANK |. WELLER GA. F. Farm Editor

WASHINGTON, Mar. 27.-Prom- ised two amendments by Senator Black of Alabama, providing for commercial manufacture of ferti- lizer the reintroduced Norris reso- lution for government operation of Muscle Shoals is expected to get early consideration from the Sen ate.
 Senator Black says it has been agreed by Senator Watson, Republi- can floor leader, that Muscle Shoals legislation be the first on the calen- dar after disposition Of the tariff bill.
 Heretofore production of hydro electric power has been given chief consideration in Muscle Shoals leg i5lation, with d debate centering around the question of public or private operation. Senator Black s amendments to the bill by Senator Norris of Nebraska, calling for com pletlCn CT dam No. 3 and the com mercial manufacture of fertilizer at nitrate plants No and No. 2 reverse the order
 He proposes that the plants be leased at S1 year to private inter ests on the stipulation that they buy operating power from the gov- ernment and sell fertilizer to farm CTS at a price guaranteed not to re- turn the manufacturer 8 profit in excess of 8 per cent.
 Ample provision IS made for req uisiticn of all facilities in event of war and for their use in the aid of flood control and navigation.
 Senator Black says the capacity of nitrate plant No. 3 with modern methods is 50,000 tons of fixed ni- trogen or about 1,667,O00 tons of ordinary fertilizer year. Continued operation of the plant, he says, would reduce the cost of fertilizer to the farmer $7,O0O,o00 annually

SANTA CATALINA ISLAND, Cal. March 27--Rogers Hornsbys legs aren't exactly what they used to be, but the ole batting eye is keener than when he entered the National league Is years ago.
 While the Rajah normally is a mediocre spring hitter he has been clouting the ball at a merry clip ever since he landed on Wrigley's magic island out here in the Pacific ocean. In the second exhibition game with Los Angeles, the Chicago Cub second baseman nicked good pitchers for two homers and pair of singles.
 A sore right heel is giving Horns by some trouble, but he expects that to disappear before the season opens next month. Toward the end of last season a growth on the heel bothered him. He had it removed during the winter.
 Hornsby conseryes his energy. He seldom strains his eyes by reading anything other than the sports pages. He doesn't dance And the orchestras here are thorough

ly enticing. He won't play golf; he won't even walk more than is ne- cessary.
 You know a fellows feet cant last forever. and a baseball player must take care of them," he said one day as he lolled around the hotel lobby while other Cubs played golf, tennis or just strolled around the island
 With the spotlight somewhat shifted from him to Lester Bell the new third baseman, whom Hornsby so loudly praised to the Cub management, Hornsby may boost his lifetime National league batting average of 1863 this season. Despite.a poor start last year, his first with the Cubs. he carved out a fancy .330.

AMENDMENT TO
 GAME LAW NOT
 APPROVED HERE
Chamber of CommercePro- tests Against Searches
 Without Warrants

A resolution protesting against
 amending the Alaska Game Law to empower employees of the Alaska Game Commission to make searches of persons and various kinds of property without search warrants was passed today by the Chamber of Commerce. Copies of the reso- lution will be sent to Senator Hiram Bingham and Repres enta tiv e Charles F. Curry, chairmen respec- lively of the Senate and House con- mittees on Territories, Delegate Sutherland and other Alaska cham bers of Commerce.
 R. E. Robertson, Chairman of the Legislative, who drafted the resolu- tion, declared that the amendment was unconstitutional in spirit and was inimical to the best interests of all Alaskans. 'f8 M Text of Resolution
 The resolution follows in full: WHEREAS, the passage of Sec tion 3, House Bill H. R. 9726, pro- posing to amend Section of the Alaska Game Law, by empowering any officer or employee of the Alas ka Game Commission to search without warrant any camp, camp outfit, pack or pack animals, wagon or other vehicle, sled, or any boat or vessel of the United States, when such officer or employee has rea- sonable cause to believe that such camp, camp outfit, pack or pack animal, automobile, wagon or other vehicle, sled, boat or vessel has therein or thereon any animals or birds in violation of said law, is inimical to the best interests of the people of Alaska and, in it's en- forcement, would cause much delay, inconvenience and indignity to in- nocent persons,
 No, THEREFORE BE TT RE- SOLVED By the Juneau, Alaska, Chamber of Commerce that it here by protests against the enactment Iof Section 3, House Bill H. R. 9726. which proposes to amend Section 5, Iof the Alaska Game Law, substan- italy in the manner hereinbefore recited, and that copies of this reso- lution be forwarded. to Honorable ID. A.

ACTIVE YEAR IN
 RADIO INDUSTRY

NEW YORK, March 27. = The radio industry looks ahead with satisfaction.
 Reports of improved business con- ditions during Jannary coupled with brighter prospects for the months ahead, have led to the statement that the effects of last years oy- reproduction of receivers are all most past; the era of cut prices, due largely to distress merchandise is about over, and with reduced production, normal manufacturing schedules and distribution soon will be reached"
 H. B. Richmond of Cambridge, Mass, President of the Radio Man ufacturers Association, in report, said that liquidation of excess pro- duction probably will be completed in a few weeks instead of a few months, as originally expected.
 In referring to industry diff culties" last year, he said: "Twen- ty-five per cent of the manufact- urers maintained price levels, 35 per cent cut prices and 40 per cent became involved in financial difficulties. This, however, reduced the number of manufacturing units, with production schedules now ap- preaching reasonable prospective demand"

NEW FLOAT TO BE COMPLETED IN SIX WEEKS
Chamber Hears Construc- ton Soon to Start on
 Small Boat Float

Within six weeks at the outside, the new City Float for small boats will be available on the north side of the Alaska Juneau rock dump, according to a report made to the Chamber of Commerce today by C. T. Gardner, Chairman of the Civic Improvement Committee This float will replace the present one abutting the Alaska Juneau docks.
 All of the material for the new float is ready and construction merely awaits weather that will permit the moving of a piledriver to the spot to do the pile driving. The Alaska Juneau has done con- siderable grading on the approach and will shortly put in a rockfill over some low places.
 As soon as the piling is driven, the present floats will be extended to the rockdump, and an opening for ingress and egress cut into the north end of the present floats, MT. Gardner said.
 Fourth of July
 The local American Legion Post may have charge of the annual Fourth of July program here, it was made known at today's meet ing of the Chamber The Execu- tive Committee has written Post officers offering to turn over the program to that organization, with the Chamber furnishing the GUS tomary finances. If the Legion neires decline to accept the offer. the Chamber will handle the cele- brstion in the usual manner.
 A letter from the Canadian Ma tional Railways was received ask ing the Chamber to arrange for a boat for charter to handle an ex- petition Of six Harvard students to Mt. Fairweather next June Ar engagements for guides have been made
 During the past week, 41 letters of inquiry have been received and answered by Secretary c. H. Walmsley.
 Chamberlin Talks Briefly
 George R. Chamberlin, Grand Scribe of the ]. O. O. F. here on an official visit to subordinate Odd Fellows lodges, was a guest at today's meeting. He compliment ed the Chamber on the work it was doing.
 We don't hear much of Alaska in Tacoma he said, and this is my first trip here. I am astounded ct the bigness of the Territory and the bigness of some of it's men,
 His work for the past 20 years has been confined largely to pro- motion of the Order of Odd Eel lows which, he said, aims at the development of good citizenship It is largely similar to the work of the Chamber of Commerce, he added, the one working through fraternal circles to promote good citizenship and the latter working to foster better communities.
 B. Stryker. New York City, was also a guest. He arrived here this week and is contemplating locating in the city.

Commission Not Criticized

lCquCobCu OO CCl1Cul uCl ClIl dlltt take similar action.
 Commission Not Criticized , The protest, Mir Robertson ex- plained, was not intended as a criticism of the Alaska Game Com mission, The Chamber, he added, appreciated the work it is doing and supports it in it's efforts to protect the game and fur-bearing animals of the Territory
 The proposed amendment, how ever, violated vital principal of American government and sought to take away the right guaranteed to all Americans under the Federal constitution-that of freedom of search of persons and property un- less in compliance with search warrant. The history of laws be- slowing authority for search with out such process showed many abuses and such policy is re- kuSllailV tO dAl E1Adohee4lo, ilC AS- clared.
 Violations of the Alaska Game Law are not so numerous that the officers charged With it's enforce ment cannot do their duty in the ordinary manner, he said.
 Aid in Protection
 If the Alaska Game Commission possessed the authority sought to be given it under the amendment said c. T. Gardner, former Presi- dent of the Game Commission, it would undoubtedly find game pro- lection much easier to accomplish. Similar provisions, he added, are contained in the game protection codes of Il States. Much of the game law violation is committed by aliens, or nonresidents engaged ia seasonal occupation, such as fishing, in Southeast Alaska, and Commis sion officers and employees could cope against these more successful ly if they had the power sought in the amendment.
