VIEW. PROPOSES LOCAL POST OF WAR VETERANS
1. D. Radinsky, Washing ton State Official, Launch
 es Drive for Members

Organization or a local Post O the veterans of Foreign Wars i being undertaken by Isaac D. Rad insky, Asst. Chief of Staff of tht District of the State of Washing. ton, and World War veteran. There are enough ex-service men living in Juneau, he said, who saw ser vice abroad, to justify the estab- lishment of such a post.
 It is the oldest one of the vet erans' associations, declared MT Radinsky, dating back to 1899, al though under it's present name il was not organized until 1913. It has one post in Alaska, at An chorage, and in every state in the Union, the Canal Zone, Hawaii Philippine Islands, Europe and China.
 The objects of the organization he said: Are fraternal, patriotic historical and educational; to pre- serve and strengthen comradeship among it's members; to assist wor- thy comrades; to perpetuate the memory of our dead, and to assist their widows and orphans; to maintain true allegiance to the government of the United States, and fidelity to it's Constitution and laws; to foster true patriotism; to maintain and extend the institu- tions of American freedom; and to preserve and defend the United States from all her enemies, what soever."
 Anyone serving as an officer or enlisted man in the Army, Navy Marine Corps or Coast Guard of the United States in the following cases is eligible for membership: Mexican War, in Mexico; Spanish Campaign medal service in Cuba, Porto Rico, Philippines; Philippine Campaign medal service, Philip pines, Mindanao, Pala Expedition, Datu Ali Expedition, Mount Bud Dajo Expedition, Mindanao and IJolo Expedition, authorized, Moro Expedition, China Campaign medal service, Cuban occupation and qualification medal service, Nicara- qua, 1912-13, Haiti campaign medal, 1916; Mexican medal service in Mexico, Vera Cruz or the punitive or other authorized expeditions into Mexico, World War service, German Occupation, North Russia and Siberia; Haitian campaign medal service 1919; second Nicara-

sible to operate an air schedule b, way of the Coast to Alaska.
 Is Minded
 However, if I do return by tho Coast on this trip, and am favor ably impressed, would like to be able to place plane on this schedule for experimental pur- poses. I am completely open minded and it is the vast differ ence in weather conditions that compels me to favor the interior for schedule purposes, MT. Bar rows said T also believe it will be at least a year before any schedule of this kind is establish ed" he declared.
 Experienced In Alaska
 No stranger to Alaska, MT. Bar rows, who has flown since 1919, was one of the organizers of the Pacific International Airway which was later taken over by the Pacific Alaska. For the last year and a half he has been acting Di- visional Engineer, connected with the New York office of Pan-Amer- ican Airways During that time he was based for several months each at Brownsville, Texas; Miami, Florida, and in New York City. He has been studying flying condi- tions on many of the companies regular routes including those to South America and Mexico as well as in the United States.
 The Ford plane which MT. Bar rows will bring back north has 7l5 horse-power cyclone engine and is capable of carrying two tons Of freight. It has been constructed so that it will operate equally well on pontoons, skis or wheels, as re- quired by weather conditions. He has. at various times, made six trips to the Interior by way of Canada, with planes for the com pany.

BARROW . CLINIC HANDLES MANY PATIENTS
More than 6,000 Cared for in Mission Hospital
 During Past Year

More than 5000 cases passed through the clinic of the Presby- terian Mission at Point Barrow which has a population of about $50, according to Mrs. Henry Griest, wife of the physician in charge of the institution. She wis., tied here last night, enroute to California and Indiana to visit relatives.
 Mrs. Griest came to Fairbanks from Point Barrow by plane, ac- companying Operator Morgan oi the U. S. Signal Corps radio sta tion, who entered hospital at Fairbanks for a sinus operation.
 Conditions in the far northern community, she said, are on a nor maj plane. She will return to the Territory about April 20, to take a plane to her home before the breakup.

w.. J. BARROWS TO HEAD P. A. A. IN FAIRBANKS SOON
Lyman s. Peck, General Manager, to Move Of-
 fees to New York City

While in Juneau last evening on his way south, w. J. Barrows, of the Pacific Alaska Airways, an- nounced that he had recently been appointed manager of the con- pany's Alaska operations with headquarters at Fairbanks, to suc- ceed Lyman S. Peck, General Man ager. whose office is to be trans ferred to New York City in the near future. MT. Peck will, how ever, continue as General Manager of the company, he said.
 MT. Barrows last month ferried a plane from the States to Fair banks by way of Canada and the Interior route and is now on his way to Detroit, Michigan, to take over a Ford freighter plane, re- gently purchased by the company, which he will fly back to the Fair banks base.
 May Stop Here
 MT. Barrows will go to New York and while there hopes to get per mission from his company to fly the Ford freighter to Fairbanks by way of the coastal route, stop ping at Juneau on the way.
 My principal reason for wishing to return by way of the Southeast Alaska coast, is to determine the feasibility of running scheduled service to Alaska by this route. My present opinion is that the Interior route is the more practical for scheduled operation. I am afraid that until equipment to do away with the danger from icing and navigational difficulties, has been perfected, that it would be impos-

P.W.A. Ignoring Rights
Of the Coal Industry

Upwards Of 1000 men, women and
children of Montana are facing destf
tuition as the direct result of the
Public Works Administrations hydra
electric program, George j. Leahy
chairman of the National Job Saving
and Investment Protection Bureau
for the Coal Industry, declared today.
Mr., Leahy charged that the PWA is
entirely ignoring the rights OF the
coal industry, both miners and mine
owners, whose jobs and property Will
be destroyed as these huge govern
ment-oWned hy0ro-electricaI projects,
such as the Tennessee Valley devel
opnent, force existing steam generav
ting stations out of operation and
do away with the market for a sub
stantiaa portion OF coal now mined
in Montana.
The Public Works Administers
tiOn," Mr.. Leahy said, has utterly
disregarded the rights OF the coaI
industry In financing these hydro
electric projects. An excellent Illus
tration OF this Is found in the PRO
po8al to develop a water power pro
ject on the LOup River near Column
bus, Neb.
"SpOk eSnen for both mine and
railroad workers, the producers, the
coal code authorities themselves and
William Green, president OF the
Federation M Labor have
protested this project. Yet NO n of
these groups was successful In gain
ing q hearing
1t II difficult to believe" MIR.

ADJUSTMENT ACT AMENDED

Recent amendments to the Adjust
ment Act added six new basic com
modties beef cattle, grain sorg
huns. flax, barley, rye, and peanuts
and questions have been raised as tc
whether increasing production O
these new commodities would invali
late the contracts already In force
or In process.
Limitations on basic crop increases
In contracts signed before June /,
1884, will be interpreted as applying
only to the original basic commodi-
ties. and not this year to the produc-
ton OF the new commodities added
by the amendments.
For example, a producer OF corr
and hogs will be deemed to have full
filled these provisions of his contract
II he refrains from increasing. in
1894. his acreage OF cotton, wheat.
rice, or tobacco, for sale. and If he
does not increase the number OF
cows kept for milk or It's products to
be sold, above the highest acreage or
humber for 1882 to 1888.
Because the new basic cOm1nodi-
lies were not designated until farm
srs had their plans for 1884 well I'M
Ter way. 1t has been decided that In
creased production OF them will not
constitute violation OF the contract
long as there is no violation OF ito
provisions, which forbid in
reases in the total acreage OF feed
rops other than grain or hay, and
Increases In the total acreage or
rops planted for harvest.

Ieahy continued. that the PWA
would at this time deliberately EN-
bark upon a program which contains
TO established businesses and will
certainly throw thousands OF men out
Of work and their dependents upon

Yet. that is exactly what is being
done. These great hydro projects.
