Only one was under charge. He

tomobile without license. The
other four were asked to satisfy i'm
migration officials that they were
properly in the country.
Their picture swapping activity
created wild excitement through
the Jersey Meadows, a large in
dustrial center Rumors and re-

LOS ANGELES, Jan. II. U.F

LOS ANGELES, Jan. IT, U.P)
"A statewide reorganization of
CWA units was limited today by
State Director Edward Macauley
after he revamped the Los Angeles
organization in a general shakeup.
Macauley said the San Francis
co unit was not functioning as
smoothly as it might be and veri-
fled reports that demands were
growing for changes at San Diego.
Meanwhile demands for a reor-
ganization OF the National Re-
employment service and the state
emergency relief administration
came from John B. Elliott, vice
chairman of the Democratic state
central committee. Elliott brought
about the local shakeup in the
CWA by appointing a committee
to support his charges OF general
incompetence.
Elliott said he would not halt his
investigation into the local organ
ization.
I'VE will continue our insiStence
that the department of justice un-
cover and prosecute those who have
profited, those who have been re-
sponsible for the calamity that has
been visited on the unemployed"
Elliott asserted.
William Fleet Palmer, assistant U.
S. attorney, disclosed that authori-
ty has been asked of Washington to
proceed with an investigation.
"As soon as permission is re-
ceived," Palmer said, department
of justice investigators will dig
into CWA records. We plan to pro-
Secute as soon as we have Suffi-
cient evidence"
Records OF under Officials will be
emphasized in the investigation, he

NOTES CONCERNING
 H. c. G. F. ACTIVITIES

After the close of the 1888 dredging season a program of thawing and prospect drilling and pipe laying was organized and car ried out through the winter mon- ths of 1883 and 1934, during which time the average force em- oyed was about 65, as compared with about 20 the preceding wint- CT.
 As early as practicable in the spring the force was. increased to overhaul and reassemble the en- zines in the power plant, to re pair No. dredge and to open the ditches. The total force is now 165, as compared with 80 at the same time last year.
 Thawing preparation work is be- ing done in the No. dredging area. No. 3 dredge repair work, Is about completed and it is expect ed that this dredge and the pow CT plant will be operating within few days.
 On account of not having pre- pared ground ahead of dredges Nos. 1 and 2 last year, they will not be able to operate until late this season, if at all. It is hoped that wat supply and thawing operations will be satisfactory, in which case all three dredges may be operating towards the end oi the season. Most of the usual re- liable force of men are back al work hhis spring, many of them having returned from the outside via airplane, in order to be or hand for the spring work. Al soon as thawing water is available Ithe force will be materially inoreas ed by the addition of point driv'

RUSSIAN ICEBREAKER
 ARRIVES AT NOME

Continued from Page one from the ship. Several parties of Nnmeites wes s, ..s .ed to k ] aSoard the 'irassin ;ia see the largest icebreaker in the world.
 The. vessel as explained by of fhcers in command was built Tn 1917 in Scotland, for the Russian government. It is II feet in the beam and 310 feet in length. .
 When fully loaded the ship will draw thirty feet of water, and at : present with part of its load or coal gone,, is now drawing about 25 feet. It is equipped with three large engines generating 1O,50O horsepower. According to the statements made aboard, sbe burns normally 130 tons of coal day, and when in severe ice conditions win burn up to 1S0 tons a day. There are ten boilers, with three fires in each boiler, to generate the steam for the engines
 The complement of the expedi- ton aboard the Krassin is l57, counting Slepnev it is now 15S. The icebreaker' will conduct the two vessels who now have the rescued people from the Arctic aboard, thru the ice on the Sther- ian side of Boring, and then 1t is expected she will return to the Arctic for further work in open ing the way along the Siberian coast, for the supply ships during the season of 1884.
 In looking over official records kept by the local Coast Guard, it was discovered that the Alex ander arrived Nome from the States, May 21, am, 1900.

ministered by district and township
officials.
8. Fitting Of emergency relief ad-
mlnistrations into the regular func-
tions of the State. government to as
sure a full program of care for the
needy and to prevent overlapping.
