\ Administration Helps

Washington, April fl R}-The ad- minislration is standing squarcly be- hind the nomination of Judge John J. Parker as an associate justice of the supreme court in opposition to the objections of organized labor and growing antagonism in the senate.
 The position of President Hoover and the determination of, those op posed to Judge Parker's confirmation were accentuated today by three dis tinot developments which set Wash ington wondering if a repetition of tho bitter battle that attended the nomination of Charles Evans Hughes as chief justice is in prospect.
 From the White House there came last night a statement, prepared by the justice department defending Judge Parker against the criticism of the American Federation of Labor which simultaneously issued a reiteration of it's opposition. In addition, it was learned that Chair man Norris of the senate judiciary committee has decided to oppose confirmation and that he may be joined by Senator Borah.
 Injunction Case Discussed
 Judge Parker's action in uphold ing an injunction preventing the United Mine Workers from organiz- ing the employees of the Red Jacket Consolidated Coal and Coke Com | pany was the subject of the state ments of both the justice department and the labor organization.
 The former contended that Judge Parker had,no freedom of action in the case in question, that in his de- cision he followed a previous dcci- sion of the supreme court, which, the statement said, he was bound to do.
 The statement of the federation, | signed by William Green, it's presi- dent, said it is inconceivable that man who has shown such judicial bias against the working people Of the country can be elevated to the highest judicial tribunal of the land"
 The dispute over the injunction case involves the so-called yellow dog contract" under which the Red Jacket employees were operating binding them not to join a labor union while working for the con- pany. The justice department main tained that Parker had relied upon the supreme court decision in the Hitchman case, which denied the right of unions to persuade employees to break such contracts.
 Bound by Decisions
 "Therc does not seem to be q point decided in the Red Jacket case" the department memorandum said, Ion which Judge Parker as- sumed to exercise any independent judgment or opinion. xxx He was bound by the decisions of the su- preme court. of which he could not refuse to follow"
 Asserting that the Fed Jacket de cision forced "a condition bordering CTS Of West Virginia, Green called upon the senate to reject the nom nation. He declared that Parker would carry to the supreme bench views and opinions hostile to labor and destructive 10 human rights as shown in the Red Jacket decision.'
 A favorable report on the nomina- tion was expected today from the senate judiciary sub committee which has had it under consideration"

experience"
 That Mellon declaration, while placing that group and the Ware in tercsts in harmony on Brown for governor, still leaves them split on a senatorial candidate. Brown and his running mate, Secretary of Labor James J. Davis, candidate for the senatorial post, have the joint en- dorsement of the Ware organization in Philadelphia. Since the with drawal of his co-candidate for gov ernor, Samuel s. Lewis, Grundy until last night apparently had been forced into the position of an mde pendent candidate. Grundy is oc cupying a seat in the senate by ap- pointment of Governor John s. Fisher.

Judge Advises Fisher
 Men Work Together

A decision in the Case of the Bakers Bay Fish Company, plaintiff, against O. R. Graham ct al, defendants, was handed down by Judge w. E. Campbell in Pacific County Superior Court at South Bend after several days of testimony.
 Some forty-flve fishermen were included among the defendants, engaged in gillnetting around Peacock Spit at the mouth of the Columbia River. The case involved the right of gillnetters and drag seiners represented by the Bakers Bay Fish Company and the hearing was an attempt 10 settle the difficulties that have confronted the fishermen for some time.
 The court recommended that it is the duty of the fishermen to give the same space to the drag seine as they would give he gill-net, and declared that the difficulties would solve them selves if an attempt would be made by the fishermen to oper- ate amicably and extend con- sideration to each other.
 The root of the trouble, how ever, in this instance is the war with trap men-the drag -sein- CTS being dragged into the feud by the trap operators who have been trying to get fishing rights on this famous controver- sial Spit. This fact is known and recognized by the gillnetters their war against the drag-sein- CTS hired by trapmen to en- parrass the gillnetters.

SUPERIOR HIGH BOAT FOR
 THE YEAR

The halibut schooner Superior with a crew of six men under Capt. Nels Forde, is said to be high boat this year operating out of Ketchikan for halibut. The division of the proceeds of the earnings will reach approx imately $2600 per man. The The schooner Clipper earns second place with a share ap- proximately $24OO per man and the Zenith, Capt John Iversen, with a crew of nine men will share approximately $2300 per man. But for the fact she operated a larger crew than the other craft, the Zenith proba- ply would have been high boat for she was only $500 per share behind high boat with her nine man crew against the Superior's six man crew.

Wisconsin elected the youngest of the LaFollette's as it's gover- nor. And while so doing, they cleaned out the legislators who have been working in opposition 10 the liberal legislators which have been sent to make laws for the citizens of the Badger State. And that is the only way to handle legislators who refuse to recognize that they are but the mouthpieces of the electorate which sends them to make laws. Alaska is we'll up in progressive ideals but it has a lesson to learn from the state which fathers and mothers the LaFollettes.

Accident Statistics
 From Interior Dept.

Washington, D, C.-If history repeats itself, many thousands of children will be killed or maimed by automobiles within the next twelve months in the United States.
 This statement, according to pr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Secre- tary of the Interior and chair man of the White House Con- ference on Child Health and Protection, is based upon the oc- dent statistics of the past year.
 When I was a boy" said Sec retary Wilbur, "the only thing we feared out in the open coun- try, was a rattlesnake. But the rattlesnake is a domestic pet compared with the automobile. Rattlesnakes may kill a few thousand persons a year in this country, but automobiles kill thousands of children alone, because our safety precautions are net as modern as our mode of travel.
 "WOrst of all, the automobile is only one of the many new modern dangers to which our children are exposed.
 Members of the White House on Child Health and which will meet in Wa chin"tcn at the call of Presi- fant Ho yer, have been work in@ for tho nast year upon the problems of childhood.
 All they have diScOV2red- that is. every bit of scientific relative to children TOW in existence in the field of medical service, public health, education and training-Win later be at the service of what the President has rightly called he deeply concerned parents of this country"
 More than HOO experts from every field will gather at the Red Cross and D. A. R. buildings in Washington for the Confer once. Secretary Wilbur, as will make the closing address. The Secretary has served both the American Med ical Association and Standford University as president.

 should oppose the suit which
 would only be of benefit to him. That in the event of ultimate success of the suit all proceeds would be disbursed right here in

 During his discourse on the

He asked if any one in the con- vention had paid a cent to him or to William Paul or if they knew of any money that had been paid over to either of them or their benefit. Not a member of the convention, delegate or visitor signified any knowledge of this have been done. He then explained that when and if permission to present claim is granted by Congress then steps would be taken by the board of trustees appointed at the Haines convention to col Iect this money to defray costs of the suit witness, printing, etc., but that no part of it was to be given attorneys as a flee. !

Wickersham Declares Himself Barred From
 Participating Ln Benefits from Land Suit

During the recent convention of the Alaska Native Brother hood held in Katchikan, Judge James Wickersham appeared be- fore the convention at the re- quest of Executive Committee to make clear the object of the land suit and to answer the charges raised by George Grigs- by and the Juneau Empire that he (Wickersham) had been charging and collecting $1O from every Indian in South east Alaska.
 MT. Wickersham explained the legal status of the claims of the Indians. He used in par ticular a decision rendered by Chief Justice John Marshall in Ia similar case by Georgia In dians to recover payment for lands taken from them. The law in the case has not been changed by any decision of the Supreme Court of the United States.
 He further explained that suit is not for recovery of the lands proper and no ejectment is sought for lands formerly own ed and occupied by the Indians. The erroneous idea has been prevalent that such was the plan of the suit. Suit is only for payment of lands disposses- sed without due process of law. That, in event Congress allows the claims to be presented be- fore the Court of Claims and favorable decision rendered, whatever money is paid to AL askan Indians, be it one mil lion or twenty millions of dol lars would go right back into payment of bills, homes and the

VIII Demonstrate
 Fabco- Tuxham Engine

The new halibuter Saga" de- signed, built and owned by Hen Tik HenrikSen of Petersburg, will arrive here from Oakland, Cal, about the 18th of December and local boat owners are awaiting an opportunity to see a working demonstration of her 50 h.p. low compression Danish motor.
 MT Henriksen is brother-in- law of Forrest Fryer of the Fry CT Machine Works and is well known in Petersburg, having been master of the halibuters Teton" Mary M. Christopher" and Cedric"
 Two years ago Henrik's health failed and the doctors advised a nilder climate, so he and his wife took up their abode in San Francisco. There he conceived the idea of building halibut boat of his own. He was not a boat carpenter but he knew something about boats, and in seventeen months of tedious eff fort he has built with his own hands, plank by plank, the boat which will bring him back to the life he loves.
 Henriksen says That Fabco- Tuxham Diesel is a poor mans engine. There is nothing to time, it is self oiled and it takes up but little space. It is not a high compression engine, wears a long time and is very economi- cal"
 Incidentally, Fryer Machine Works will have the sales for the engine here and have several sales already in prospect.

Lndustrial Accidents
 Kill and injure Many

Industrial accidents in the United States during 1929 were responsible for 23,000 deaths, B. 100000 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 a financial loss of $60,000,O00, he said.
 Coincident with MT. Lamont's speech, the American Standards Association made public a state ment by Cyril Ainsworth, safety engineer for the association, in which he declared that at least 1000 deaths, 125,OO injuries and a money loss of $40,O00,000 lis the annual toll eXacted because of needless disagreements in the industrial safety regulations of the various states" Mr. AinSWorth advocated adop tion of a uniform national safety code.
 Among other things, he said, this would result in better me- 1 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 be" LABOR.
