Q.N.SO Robert Reeves, so,
whose daughter, Lucille, Is, was
killed in an automobile crash at
Goddard, KY, Sunday night, was
in the Fleming County jail here
today for shooting and probably
fatally wounding Albertus Foud-
ray, 81, driver of the Inflated car.
After burying his daughter, the
heart-broken father appeared at
the home where young Foudray,
an orphan, was in bed suffering
from cuts and bruises received in
the crash.
When young Foudray finally
appeared at the door the father
whipped out a 80 caliber pistol
and shouted:
II am going to do you just
like you did my daughter"
Reeves fired twice and missed.
AS the youth turned to run third
bullet crashed into his spine,
passing through the lung. The
father then showed the smoking
pistol into his pocket and hunted
up Marshal James Evans. He
said:

me-"

Wall Street monetary authorities as virtually restoring the dollar to the International Gold Standard and has opened the way for huge potential credit expansion.
 It is believed stabilization of the dollar in terms of the principal foreign curencies has probably been largely accomplished as bank cred it's expands and bank deposits grow. As the turnover of bank deposits increases prices will nor mally rise.
 Expansion Of credit today brought sharp increases in commodity pric- es, but the boom time credit growth in 1928 and 1928 is reflected rath- CT in the jump of real estate and security prices than in stable goods.

Directors at noon Friday for that purpose. Mir Wade also called at tention to another provision in the proposed code which would require that all Oriental labor brought into the Territory be paid off in the place they were hired and not in Alaska.
 Is Labor Suggestion
 This, he said, was insisted on by the Department of Labor which had been informed that there had been certain abuses growing out of payment in the Territory. He real ized that this would initiate against local business interests and thought it might be possible to obtain some modification. AS it now stands, he said, imported labor could not be paid off in Alaska nor could it receive any advances upon it's labor during the season.
 He also informed the Chamber that he had received a radiogram from Gen. Hugh s. Johnson, MIRA Administrator, asking him to urge upon the gold mining industry that it sign the residents unemployment agreement. If you have any sug- gestions on how this can be brought about, or can give us any help in the matter, it will be appreciated, he said.
 Mir. Wade also expressed a desire to confer with the Board and the Retail Trade Committee of the Chamber regarding the retail mer- chants code.
 Appoints Special Committee
 President Garoner today an- nounced the appointment of the Special Finance Committee to wind up the membership canvass. R. H Stevens was named Chairman with George M. Simpkins, Dr. R. E.. Southwell, R J. Sommers and James McNaughton as assistants. It will start it's drive next week.
 The mail membership drive to date has netted $1,530 in cash and pledges, it was reported by Curtis i Shattuck, Secretary.
 Delegate Dimond, in a communi- cation to the Chamber, advised it he had written President Roosevelt opposing the merger of the Coast Guard Service with the Navy. The Lighthouse Service, he said, so far as could be learned, was not in volved in the merger plans. He wrote President Roosevelt that

he could not praise too highly the service the Coast Guard is giving in Alaska" If there should be a merger, he added, in his letter to the Chamber, he would make every effort to see that Alaska would be given at least as good if not better service than it is now receiving. He said he had also urged that no interference be permitted with radio station KINKS wave length.
 TrOast Tells of Work
 The Alaska Division of the Off, flee of Indian Affairs has $50 h. dians at work under the CWA program, and some of it's 84 PWA projects have been launched, the Chamber was informed by N. L. Troast, Architect for that bureau. who returned this week from the southern end of the Division.
 Water supply systems are being installed at Saxman and Hydaburg. Similar work is planned for Kla- wock and Tetlick. At Hydaburg improvements are being made to la 20-year school house. The Klawock school building will be revamped. And generally, made quate and defective school buildings of the bureau will be put into good shape.
 We feel that we are accom- pliShing a great deal under the CWA program and performing use full work that will have lasting value" MT. Troast said.
 Urges Radio Improvement
 The community needs a radio in- reference detector so that some of the abundant sources of interfer- ence to local reception can be To- cated and eliminated, declared M. s. Whittier. One formerly owned by the Alaska Electric Light and Power Company had been sold. He said some other Alaskan com munitieS had been provided with this service by the City Councils and thought similar arrangement might work here.

DANGER TO NATION

labor party which voted him into Of

the face of the truck drivers strike
in Minneapolis-is given by Governor
Floyd E. Olson, of Minnesota, in
signed story in the current issue of
Real American Magazine.
"The danger of this nation lies not
in radicalism, but in fascism, says
Governor Olson in the. article. GAS
Mark Sullivan says, the NRA tends
for the moment to point toward fas-
cism. Consequently, much of big bus
mess is inclined to approve it-failing
to foresee that fascism in America
would last but briefly and would be
succeeded by something like Russian
communism.
~ have recommended to President
Roosevelt that the government take
over and operate the key industries
of this country in order to put the
people back to work and, if necessary
to relieve public suffering, go so far
as to conscript wealth. The warfare
of the public is paramount to all other
considerations. | think the govern
ment should operate the means Of
communication, the means of trans
portation, the control of power, cleo
tricity, gas. The corruption of our
public life and our public officials by
the power trust is in itself sufficient
reason why the public should take this
industry into it's own hands"
Touching on the local situation in
his own state, the Minnesota chief
executive says: "Here in Minnesota
the farmer-labor party believes in a
constitutional form of government. 1t
demands that changes in our social
order be made through the means
provided in our constitution. In order
to carry out our program for public
ownership and operation of enter
prises rendering public service, it is
necessary that the constitution of
Minnesota be changed by a majority
vote of the people,"
