ALL-TERRlTORIAL CHAMBER ACTS ON 5 QUESTIONS
Aviation Fields, Sc al Re- ceipts and Ca ble Sys-
 tenn Get Attention

Establishment by the War and Navy Departments of aviation sta- tions in Alaska, apportionment to the Territory of part of the re- ceipts derived fro mthe fur seal industry and retention under Fed eral ownership of the cable and wireless system of communication now serving the Northland were advocated in resolutions adopted by the Board of Managers of the Alaska Chamber of Commerce at their meeting this week in Juneau. Other, all of a routine nature, were given consideration.
 The action in respect to the three resolutions was taken in response toi referendum votes, recently cast on the subjects by the various community Chambers of Commerce constituting the Alaska Chamber.
 Aviation Resoluti0n's Text
 The aviation resolution requests the War and Navy Departments ito establish adequate aerial sta- tions and landing fields in Alaska, and to maintain one or more souadrons of airships in the Ter ritory." On this resolution, the vote of the member chambers was unanimous.

 OF RESTORATION OF LOST RIGHTS
Petersburg Convent on Cheers Speech Made

REPUBLICAN PARTY

Delegates Are Chosen for Meeting to Be Held
 in Fairbanks

PETERSBURG, Aliaska Nov. 21 Declaring that in Alaska, as else where in the Nation during the past 12 years, the Republican party had exploited the many for the benefit of the few, N. R. Walker, Mayor of Ketchikan, in a keynote speech at the Democratic Divisional Convention there, point ed to the Democratic party as the medium for returning to Alaskans their lost rights of self-governm and for regaining power to admin ister their own affairs and to reg ulate local matters without inter ference from Federal authority.
 Scalding Denunciation
 Mayor Walker delivered scath ing denunciation of Republican policies, locally and nationally. He was roundly cheered by those in the hall which was filled with delegates and with many residents of Petersburg.
 Typical of the attitudes of the two great parties toward. Alaska, Mayor Walker said, was the hand ling of the Alaska Railroad. The Democratic Administration built 1t up at a cost of almost $60,000,000 for the express purpose of bringing about development of the interior Empire. The Republicans have hamstrung the system by it's inn position of unjust and exorbitant freight and passenger rates, which effectively prevent development.

Mixed Brigade of Japanese Reported d to Have

PARIS, Nov. 21. - The League of Nations Council announced that a meeting will be held late today, a pub lie session, at which an at- tempt will be made to un- ravel the tangle resulting from the Japanese and Chi nese representatives failing to agree on a truce plan in the Manchurian conflict. It was believed the armistice had been concluded last night.
 Reports received from Mukden said 50000 Chinese were concen- trating in the region of Chinchow and authoritative circles gave this as one reason why the Japanese considered a truce.
 It is said the Chinese represen- tative said his Government would never consent to a truce unless Japanese began to evacuate first. He will address the Council late today.
 Reports have been received here that mixed brigade of Japanese endorsements including infantry. cavalry, artillery, machine gun units and aircraft have arrived at Muk- den

The Thrilling Story Of Reckless Modern Girl
Whose Only Thought Is to Have Good Time
Famous Short Stories
Of Youth and Love
WALTZ
BY John Held, jr.

Tubby Wheeler had insisted
that his people attend Rush
Week. Rush Week consisted Of
four full days and evenings OF
serious collegiate ceremony.
The first day was Frosh "Wel-
come" second day was Sopho-
more "Jamb," third day was
Junior "Proom," and fourth day
was Senior RECEIPT" This
Rush Week was four-day
week, but the days were full.
The morning ceremony was
one of great Importance. When
the entire sophomore class
marched down the campus green
singing their song, and with
grim set expressions on every
face, they threw their fresh
men caps into the pond. This
was the casting off Of fresh
man handouts and they were
slaves no longer.
Tubby wanted his people to
be there in order to see him
open into collegiate blossom.
So, Mr.. Wheeler had taken a
couple of days from his insur-
ance business and was there,
watching the performance. He
had come up alone, as Mrs.
Wheeler was not in the best Of
health and was not equal to
the trip.
Mr.. Wheeler had long since
forgotten the seriousness of stu
dent days. His was the seri.
BUSINESS of rapidly graying mid
die age, and the performance
seemed rather silly to him.
Musical Giggles
AS he stood there with his
hat off, he felt the warm morn
ing sun on his neck. Sud-
denly, his attention was at
tracted by the musical notes of
what was half laughter and
half giggle. He turned and his
eyes were arrested by a vision
in a pink organdy frock. The
morning sun behind silhouetted
the slim lines of her figure
through the ruffles.
He noted that the figure was
trim and young as his gaze
followed up from the ribbon
bows of her slippers. Her face
was hidden under the rim of
wide floppy leghorn hat. She

Dad is always telling me that
I am a great expense"
mo, I wouldn't think that.
I'd appreciate having a little
girl like you for my very own
so I could always tell her that
she was lovely. You see, all
I've got Is Tubby, and it
wouldn't do to tell him any
thing like that"
why, Mr.. Wheeler, I should
think you would be proud Of
having Tubby for a son. Just
think, he's sophomore this
year"
"Oh, don't think thc.t I'm not
proud of Tubby. He's as fine
a son as any man could have"
you've got a wife, haven't
you?"
"Oh, yes. Mrs. Wheeler hasn't
been well lately, what with that
and Tubby home all summer, /
don't have much fun, you
know"
Wife Doesn't Undl stand
Then Babs looked up into his
face. Her eyes twinkled as she
said, Nov, Mr.. Wheeler, don't
tell me that your wife doesn't
understand you?"
In fact, that is just what l
was about to say. How did you
guesS?" he answered.
Babs suppressed a giggle and
they waltzed a few bars without
speaking. Bahs replaced her
head on his shoulder and with
closed eyes lost herself in the
rhythm of the music.
AS the conversation ceased,
Mr.. Wheeler realized that his
starched collar was stiff no
longer and it clung clung close
to his sore neck. Then he heard
a voice at his side sa.', Hey,
Dad, 1an I cut?"
1t was Tubby returned. So he
released his partner and made
for the sidelines, as his son and
the pink lady continued with
the dance.

along fine. Gosh, he's got a hot
