PLAN FOR DIVISION

The plan for the division of Sew ard Peninsula for grazing areas was submitted at hearing of the Reindeer Committee in Washington, D. C., on February 20, by Leonard D. Baldwin.
 At that time MT Baldwin said the white herds have received prop CT care and enjoyed their natural increase but no outlet has been pro- vided for the Eskimo herds. This must be found or their herds will devastate the winter ranges of Northwestern Alaska and ruin the reindeer industry. Some means should be provided to afford the Eskimo associations an income with which to properly care for their herds and furnish them some of the advantages of ownership" said MT. Baldwin.
 Range Proposal
 Chairman Kendrick, of the Com mittee, asked could not financial means be found in marketing of these special deer" and then MT. Baldwin came forward with a defi- mite proposal to "subdivide Seward

44-HOUR WEEK PROPOSED FOR
 OFFICE AIDES
Vim Introduces Measure Providing for Half-Holi-
 day on Saturdays

A 44-hour weeK for employees in Territorial offices is proposed un- der a measure introduced in the House of Representatives yesterday afternoon by Grover c. Vim. It provides that office hours shall be eight hours on week days except on Saturdays on which the employees are to be given half holidays.
 Under the existing statute, Ter ritorial office workers have half holidays on Saturdays during the summer months Recently Fed eral employees were put on the 44-hour per week basis and the Vim measure would extend the system to the Territory's help.
 To maintain and rehabilitate tel ephone lines between Nome, Solo mon Council and Golovin, Solomon and Bluff, Candle and Deering, and Candle and Keewalik, meas ure was introduced in the House this morning by Representative Burgh asking for an appropriation of $5,000 It is similar to meas ure passed by the 1929 Legislature.
 The House Committee on Fish, Game and Agriculture today re- ported mittee substitute measure for Fred B. Johnston's bill to raise wolf and coyote bounties to S15 and recommended passage of the substitute which left the boun- ty fees at S15 proposed in the origi- nal. Only minor changes were made in it.
 MT. Hellerich's bill to allot $2,500 annually from the Second Divi- sion's road allotment for mainten- ance work on Nome Harbor passed through it's second reading and will come up for passage next Monday Send Copy to White
 The House plans to answer Stew art Edward Whites criticism of the Territory for it's warfare on sal mon trout in the Bristol Bay red salmon district.

INDIAN SCHOOL
 SYSTEM SURVEY
 IS IN PROGRESS
Stanford Scientist D e al S Frankly with System in
 Talk to Solons

The aboriginal races of the three northern divisions of Alaska are not ready for citizenship, and it would De worse than folly to con- centrate Indian and Eskimo chil- dren in schools with the whites, the Alaska Legislature was told yes- terday afternoon by Dr. H. D. An derScn, Leland Stanford Univer- sity Educator and sociologist, who is just ending the first year of a two-year survey of the Indian school system maintained in the Territory by the Alaska division of the Office of Education
 The study is being made under the auspices of the Stanford Uni versity on a Carnegie Foundation grant, at the request of the h. terior Department. In the past year Dr. Anderson has covered all of northwestern Alaska from Kotze- bue Sound to the Kuskokwim dis trict In the next year he will ex- tend the work to the Alaska Penin- sula, Aleutian Islands and South east Alaska.
 Work Is Detailed
 A trained and experienced edu- cator and sociologist, Dr. Anderson is making thorough study of the Eskimo and Indian from social q well as educational staalpoi..--.. As- companied by Mrs. Anderson he has visited innumerable villages, spend ing from three to seven days in each of them, making innumerable tests, submitting even the buildings used to scientific scrutiny. His reports, which are being forwarded to the States will all be compiled with summary of conclusions and recommendation for a new pro- gram which will be issued in the next year or two as public docu- ment by the Interior Department.
 He has covered Seward Peninsula " PldliC anu tilC SOdStdl lNs4OAiT between Nome and the Kuskokwim by dogteam. Communities, fam lilies, individuals, including school patrons, pupils and teachers have been the subjects of his scientific measurements.
 Speaks With Frankness
 Dr. Anderson spoke in an oper session of the House yesterday aft ernoon, members of the Senate at- tending in a body. All of the law makers accorded him the closest of attention, and number of ques- tions were fired at him at the con clusion of a 20-minute rapid fire discussion.
 The investigator spoke with ths utmost frankness, criticism being made objectively and without per. sonal implication. He attacked the system rather than the personnel but he was none-the-less vigorou.

ALASKA JU N EAU HAS OPTION ON
 NEW GROUPS
I a kes Option on Hallum and Dora Claims-Opens
 Camp for l2-Man Crew <

Extension of the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company's holdings in this district through an option on two large groups of mining claims. was revealed here today by L. H. Metzgar General Superin- tendent of the company.
 The option, terms of which were not disclosed, covers the well known Hallum and Dora groups in the Mt. Juneau area. These properties, controlled by the Hallum family adjoin the Ebner property on the west.
 AS the Ebner is now controlled by the Alaska Juneau under a working agreement with the Unit ed States Smelling & Refining Company, the new deal gives the company large additional area to it's own holdings.
 The company plans immediate exploratory work on the Dora and Hallum ground, MT. Metzgar said A camp is now being established and crew of 12 men will be en- ployed at work. It is planned to drive tunnels and do some cross cutting. A compressor for air drill operations will be installed at once.
 The permanent work that will be done in development of the ground will depend upon the showings of the exploratory mpaign, MT Metzgar said.

PERFECT ING OF CHAMBER MEETS
 WITH SETBACK
D lie gates of All-Alaska Chamber Are With out
 Authority to Organize

An effort to perfect the organi- zation of the Territorial Chamber of Commerce was started yesterday afternoon when the biennial ses- sions of that body were called to order in the Council Chambers of City Hall. Senator L. c. Hess, Vice. President for the Fourth Division, presided.
 A frank statement 6f conditions by Secretary M. s. Whittier showed that the body, which was inaug- urated two years ago during the 1929 session of the Legislature, had failed to receive the support of the several Chambers of Com merce which sponsored it, and con- sequently had functioned only in nominal fashion.
 Put Up to Chambers
 Nome, Fairbanks. Anchorage, Sew ard, Valdez, Cordova. Wrangell and Juneau had delegates at yester- days meeting and in J. E. John son, Ketchikan had an unofficial observer" Only two groups were at liberty to pledge their own or ganizations for utilization with the central Chamber These were Nome and Seward Senator Alfred J. Lomen, Vice-President for the Sec ond Division, was first on the floor to assure the delegates that Nome was ready to go ahead with it's share of the undertaking, and Rep resentative Cal M. Brosius made the same pledge for Seward.
 The outcome of the movement is problematical. Delegates yesterday were instructed to advise their Chambers of the status of the or ganization and ask for final de- cision on utilization If a majority of them will perfect membership on the plan of two years ago, it is certain that the centraliza- ton movement will go through.
 Fees Are Light
 It is estimated that the revenue available from membership fees and assessments would aggregate about S1 GOO per year Each Chamber af- filiating is required to pay $10 membership fee and is, in addi- tion, assessed $1 for each member of it's own body. The income would be used in employment of a part time secretary and finance as many other activities as possible.
 Two years ago, all of the Cham bers with the exception of Ketchi- kan which declined to enter the organization, expressed a willing ness to affiliate. Only two, how over, Juneau and Nome, offered to carry out the final step.
 G. H. Walmsley, Secretary of the local Chamber. and MT. Brosius yesterday stressed the importance of perfecting the central Chamber plan. The former pointed out that it could not be entirley fi- nanced by the membership plan.
 List of Delegates
 Delegates attending yesterday s meeting included: R. E. Robertson, G. H. Walmsley, Henry Roden and Allen Shattuck for the Juneau Chamber; Alfred J. Lomen, Clifi M. Allyn, Andrew Nylan, and R N. Sundquist, Sec nd Division; Charles Benjamin, Wrangell; Jos

Balloon Drifts from OmaI,a to Fairbanks; Miner Returns
 It ,cith Proposal; Oh, Yeah!

OMAHA, Nebraska, March 14.-- A toy balloon, released at dinner party here last November, has beer returned in the form of a mar riage proposal to Mrs. Robert Tun- berg, from Fairbanks, Alaska, by miner, Henry H. Prentice.
 Each balloon carried the name and address of the sender.
 Prentice wrote that he found the balloon in February in a gulch above my claim in the Nanook region. We were out of fresh meat and tracked bear up the canyon and finally dropped him on a high ledge. It was 50 feet up. It was tough getting to him but I made it and found the balloon and am sending it to you.

Names New Receiver for Loan Association-Re-
 appoints Caldwell COURT MAKES ATTACK ON STATE EXECUTIVE
Contempt All but Stated in Charges Made from
 Bench Tn Seattle

King County Superior bench,
 sitting cnbanc, ordered a Grand
 Jury investigation of the af-
 fairs of the Puget Sound Saw
 ings and Loan Association to
 be called March 31, under di-
 rection of Judge J. T. Ronald.
 This followed close on Judge
 Findley's removal of the re-
 ceiver, State Director of Eff
 ciency Harry Johnson and the
 a9sailing of Gov. K. H. Hart
 ley. Judge Findley asked for
 grand jury probe.
 SEATTLE, March 14.--Attacking Gov Roland H. Hartley as impli- cated in a "nefarious transaction" Superior Judge Howard Findley re- moved State Director of Efficiency Johnson as receiver for the Puget Sound Savings and Loan Associa- tion.
 As Judge Findley left the bench, he collapsed and was carried to his private chambers. He has been i'll with influenza.
 Judge Findley named H. J. Hoff- man, Supervisor of Savings and Loan Associations, as temporary re- ceiver and reappointed Hugh Cald- well, attorney for the receiver.
 Disrepute and Contempt
 The jurist said: Can this court at the time these proceedings are still pending in this court, shut his eyes at published interviews and statements by the Governor cast ing aspersions and impugning the motives of the Judge of this court which tends to bring the court and justice into disrepute and con- tempt?"
 Judge Findley said he referred to Gov Hartley's statements that the Governor would resist attempts to go back to the system of paying attorneys fat fees and bonuses and that Johnson and Hartley had de- cided that Caldwell was not the right man for attorney for the re- ceiver.
 Inquiry Is Sought
 Judge Findley said: Tt further might not be amiss to inquire un- der and by virtue of what right the Governor undertakes to assume the right to dictate to the court whom this court will appoint as of ficer or agent to assist in the proper administration of a trust estate which this court is alone guarding
 Judge Findley was appointed by Coy. Hartley and later elected.

BUT IT WASN'T

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, March IA. It is now learned that no toy balloon from Omaha, Nebraska, was found here, but local newspapermen investigating, learned that a friend of Mrs. Robert Tunberg, at din- ner, played a joke on her and wrote the letter himself and sent it to Mrs. Roy Lund here. Mrs. Roy Lund remailed it last month to Omaha.
 The letter said Henry Prentice, a Fairbanks miner, found the balloon and sent it back with a marriage proposal.
 Prentice is ficticious character. Mrs. Tunberg's announcement of the receipt of the letter looked phoney because it said Prentice killed the bear in February when all good bears were asleep.
