New Commanding Officer,
 Chilkoot Barracks, Re- lieves Col. Miller

Lieut.. Col. Ralph Wayne Dusen- bury, 7th Infantry, U. s. Army, and Mrs. Dusenbury spent Satur- day in Juneau while the North western was in port. They were passengers on the steamer fol Chilkoot Barracks where Col. Dus- enbury will take command, reliev- ing Col w.. C. Miller who has had command of the Barracks for the elast three years.
 Col. and Mrs. DuSenbury came to Alaska from Los Angeles, where he has been regular Army instruc- tor with the California National Guard for the last five years.

 Though this is their first trip to Alaska, Col and Mrs Dusen- bury have spent many years at army stations outside of the United States proper Since his gradua- stion from West Point in 1907, Col. Dusenbury has served three tours of duty in the Philippine Islands, , served in France with the 32nd Division during the World War, and tour as military attache to the American Embassy at Buenos Aires, Argentina and with the Am erican Legations in Uruguay and Paraguay, South America.
 Col. Dusenbury had requested further duty in the Philippines but as there were no vacancies was offered the post in Alaska. Both he and Mrs. Dusenbury were anx- ious to get to Chilkoot and get settled and were looking forward to spending the next two years in Alaska with pleasure.

 The trip north was most pleas ant and I am sure we will thor oughly enjoy the experience of learning more of this great terri tory" Col Dusenbury declared.
 While he was in the city, Col. Dusenbury called informally upon Gov. John w. Troy and made the A acquaintance of other government officials.

employs only $1,000, yet turns out
more cars than when more labor
was employed.
Buying Power Increases
Shorter hours and fixing of a
minimum wage being the two guild
ing principles of the NRA, DR.. Gun
ningham declared they have result
ed in a % per cent increase in buy
ing power, the employment of
four to five million men, a n per
cent increase in wages, and 81 per
cent increase in employment
Codes in operation number 568
and over 200 more are in the max.
ing. The speaker said that while in
dividual industries have complaints,
few would wish to return to the old
system.
With an average increase in
wages from nine to SIS per week,
industry, he admitted, is paying a
great deal more and must get this
large expenditure back through the
code provisions calling for fair
profit, fair trade practices prohi-
bition of unfair advertising, etc.
DR.. Cunningham challenged
these who criticise the NRA to sub
stitute a better plan and prophe-
sled that in the future far reaching
changes will be made. Codemaking
has been practically completed and
enforcement of codes which will es-
tabliSh them more firmly is the
next step. He predicted more prose
cutionS as a result, and described
changes in operation of the NRA
now that three commissions are in
charge.
In conclusion the speaker bespoke
the cooperation of all industry, em.
ployed and employers alike, and
predicted that if the NRA program
is not put over by the cooperation
of all groups, the nation will be
worse of fthan it was before.

Of a talk given at the Lions club
meeting this noon by DR.. Charles
Cunningham Of. Les Angeles, com.
pliance director for the NRA and
formerly commercial attache for the
U. S. embassy in Mexico City.
Members of the chamber of com

guests at the meeting at which A.
r. Kinne presided and which open
ed with vocal solos by Mrs. P. A
Murray, accompanied by Ruth
Teeple Reid. The chamber of com
merce omitted its usual luncheon
so that members might attend.
DR.. Cunningham described the 58
offices in the United states which
are in charge of code administra-
ton, two of which are in this state.
Administration and operation of
the NRA codes IN California is par
ticularly difficult according to the
speaker who aScribed this Difficult
ty to the fact that California is pri-
marily an agricultural state and
that the NRA is easier to operate in
industrial communities.
DR.. Cunningham declared that
is better today than it was
a year ago. He pointed out that the
NRA is the direct result of business
mems ideas, being almost in its en-
tirety the work of the directors OF
the United States chamber OF COM
merce, not the so-called brain trust.
The whole idea back of the insti-
tuition is the securing of shorter
hours so that more men may be
placed at work. The depression he
