ALASKAN MINK SELLS HIGH ON
 LONDON MART
Price Paid Is Forty Percent Higher tn an for
 Other Offerings

A shipment of mink skins from the Chilkoot Fur Farm brought highest prices at the February fur sale of Lampson & Co., held in London. The Skins were in con- petition with world wide offerings. The price realized was sixty-one shillings and sixpence per skin. The owners state that this price is below normal, but considering con- ditions is very satisfactory. This price was over forty per cent high CT than any other skins sold.
 The Chilkoot Fur Farm located at Haines, and owned by Stans- field Brothers, has made a re- markable record the last several years. Starting in the fall of 1924 with a very small amount of stock it has rapidly expanded and is now considered one of the larg- est fur farms in the Territory.
 One of the owners said:
 "The fur farming industry in Alaska has big opportunity for the future provided the ranchers are given some backing. Within sev- eral years the industry will repre- sent an investment of many thou sands of dollars and will give em- ployment to large number of families. However in order to com-

FROZEN FISH IS CLEANING UP
 SAYS GEORGE
IHalibut Situation Gives Promise of Settlement
 of Difficulties

Fish conditions are not so bad, "is the opinion of Wallis s. George, manager of the Juneau Cold Stor- age Company, who returned last night on the steamship Alameda from a business visit to the States. Frozen stock" he said, "has moved well into consumption and the fresh market is promised settlement of differences existing in the halibut industry.
 of course, to move frozen stock" explained MT. George, holders had to make price concessions. Many of the large companies that had heavy supplies in storage have dis posed of them entirely. Other companies, however, still have con- siderable quantities on hand.
 When I left Seattle last Mon- day, negotiations were in progress between representatives of the fish, ermen's Union and the Fishing Vessel Owners Association for set clement of their differences. Both sides were hopeful of effecting an agreement in the near future.
 The halibut market is not yet established on a stable basis. Sup plies have been comparative meag- CT. Only 35 boats of 218 in the Seattle fleet had departed for the banks up to the time I left Se- attle."

IB. F. MCDOWELL AND

Bert Frank McDowell and Mrs. Mamie Dial Combs were married last night by the Rev. George E. James, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church. The ceremony took place in the parsonage of the church, the witnesses being MT. and Mrs. James Milligan of this city.
 The bride was an incoming pas senger from Seattle on the steam ship Alameda last night. Soon after her arrival, she and McDow- ell called at the office of United States Commissioner Charles Sey to obtain marriage license and then went to the Methodist Church parsonage.
 MT. and Mrs McDowell will make their home in Juneau. MT. Mo Dowell is employed in the Piggly Wiggly store here.

U. S. Probing Charge
Cannon Broker Had
Promise of Parole

Another Federal Government
investigation might yet neceSsi-
tate an investigation Of Bishop
James Cannon, jr., Of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church South.
The Department Of Justice to.
day continued its investigation OF
public charges that Harry L.
Goldhurst, New York bucket
shop" operator, with whom the
bishop had some dealings in 1928,
pleaded guilty only after an al
legged agreement" was made in
New York that if he relieved Can.
non of the embarrassment OF
testifying, he would receive In re.
turn a. nominal sentence and
then a parole. He now has been
paroled from a Federal prison.
Attorney General Mitchell
ordered the inquiry be made
after Senator Glass CD Of Vir-
ginia asserted he had heard re-
ports about the alleged deal.

MED|CS SPLIT
ON TONS|LS

Should tonsils be removed
from children as a purely pro-
phylactic measure? The medi-
cal profession is divided on the
answer.
Some say yes and some say no.
Those who favor the affirmative
view state that tonsils are useless
organs and that their removal,
together with the adenoids, is a
necessary step toward the pre-
vention Of disease in later life.
Those who favor the negative
view assert that tonsilS are useful
and form firSt-line defense
against disease and that they
should not be removed except
in cases where the patients
health and medical history make
the removal mandatory.
Information in support OF either
theory is difficult to obtain, but a
study Of 1000 children reveals
some interesting data. 1t was
found that in children who had
had their tonSils removed tonsili-
tbs, frequent head colds, scarlet
fever and diphtheria, and the in
cidence Of primary attacks Of
rheumatism were less than in
children whose glands had not
been removed, although their re-
moval had been advised.
On the other side of the pic
tlIre. children with tonSilS were
more immune to such respitory
infections as laryngitis. broncht-
tiS, and pneumonia; that 10 years
after tonsilectomny (removaD the
same in each group; that the
recurrent attacks of rheumatism
were not influenced by the re-
incidence Of head colds was the
moval of tonsils. Thus the ques-
tions remain pending inquiry.
