SALE Of POST

A recommendation that the
Washington Post be promptly"
offered for sale was made to the
District Supreme Court today by
Benjamin S. Minor, receiver Of
the paper.
Minor informed the court that
since his appointment as receiV-
er in March, he has had continu-
Gus conferences regarding sale of
the paper but has received mo
definite proposal of purchase"
He expressed the opinion that
prospective purchasers were re-
luctant to make offers until it
was definitely determined by
court order that the paper be
Sold"
Through dsmissals of certain
employees, wage reductions and
other economies, Minor said, the
operating expenses of the paper
have been reduced $1,000 a week.
Despite this saving, he de-
clared, the Post is still and will
continue to operate at loss. He
asked the court to instruct him
regarding the sale and further
publication of the paper. He
also informed the court that a
lease on property owned by the
John Willard estate, which is a
major portion of the Washing

COMMISSION ON |CHIL D WELFARE
 ASKS CHAN ES
Suggests Ch a n ges to lm- prove Present Methods
 of Caring for Minors

Although the present methods of caring for dependent children by the Territory have meritorious fea- lures the report submitted to the Legislature today by the Child Welfare Commission, points out that much improvement can be made.
 The Commission, with Senator Allen Shattuck as Chairman, has made an extensive survey of the problems concerning child care and their remedies. The purpose of the Commission was to obtain newer ideas and methods, and to submit it's conclusions to the Legislature for consideration. The survey of this Commission parallels the re- suits of the White House confer ences on child welfare, which were instituted by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1909, and carried on by each following President.
 Many Are Cared For
 At present, the report points out, there are 106 children in the Ter ritory being cared for in institu- tions, and IA in private homes. And there are IT dependent children supported outside the Territory, and 52 supported by widows allowances. The cost of maintenance per child varies from $10 to $3329 a month. The average monthly cost of those maintained in institutions is ap- proximately $2000, and the cost of those maintained by dependent mothers is $1270. In this particu- lar problem the Commission recom- mends more balance between the allowances granted for the care of children in institutions and those for the support of the dependent mother. It suggests a maximum al- lowance of $25 per month for those cared for in institutions, to cover all care, including housing, food and clothing.

Alarmed at the menace to Alas kan industry and the threat to the very existence of the Territory it. self contained in the provisions of H. R. 2.867 the so-called Connery 3O-hour week labor measure, the Legislature today was drafting an appeal to Congress to exempt Alas ka from the bill At an informal joint session held in the hall of the House of Representatives last night, converting at 9 o'clock, 1t was unanimously agreed by the members that the enforcement of the proposed system here would kill both the fishing and mining in- dustries.
 The bill was reported favorably to the House yesterday by the La Dor Committee, said an Associated Press dispatch to The Empire to- day.
 Dimond Urges action
 In a telegram urging the LegiS- lature to appeal to Congress, Dele gate Dimond advised President President Shattuck of the Senate and peaker Mcdonald of the House that an effort made by him to get an amendment made by the Committee had failed. He suggest ed telegrams to the Chairman of the House and Senate Labor Con- mittees.
 AS the measure affects manufac- turies producing any article or commodity that enters into inter state or foreign commerce, it will apply to every lode and placer gold mine in the Territory, to all sal men canneries, herring salteries and other fishery plants, and to saw mills who ship their product out of Alaska.
 L. H. Metzgar, General Superin- tendent of the Alaska Juneau, who was in the House gallery last night and was asked to give his views on the result on operations of the To- cal mine, declared it would make it impracticable for it to continue.
 Committee Is Appointed
 The informal session was called to order by Speaker McDonald who, after having stated it's object, turn ed the chair over to Senator Shat tuck. The discussion was brief, A motion was quickly adopted that the President of the Senate and Speaker of the House name three members each to act as a joint committee to draft a resolution to be presented to each branch of the Legislature today and to be tele- graphed to Washington.
 President Shattuck apointed Sen- ators Hess, Bragaw, and F'rawley, and Spe ak CT Mcdonald named Representatives Kehoe, Nordale and Taylor. Immediately after ad- journment the Committee began its work. Its finished resolution was slated to be introduced in both houses at pm. today and it was planned to pass it under suspended rules so it could be transmitted to the National Capital this evening.
