q remark that Japan considered such
incidents highly dangerous" followed
reports from Hsinking (Changchun)
Manchukuo, Of two instances in which
Russians fired upon japanese planes.

planes, satisfactorily identified as
Russian" were sighted over Manchu-
ku. and Korea.

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
DETROIT, March 14.-The motor
car industry, a leader in the parade
toward prosperity, has moved to heed
President Roosevelt's plea for slashed
hours and higher wage rates.
1t became the first OF the vast in
dustrial groups to 90 SO when the Ma
tional Automobile Chamber OF Com
merce announced last night that 1t
had recommended to it's member firms
that average weekly hours be cut from
40 to 36 with "compensating wage in
crease"
A few hours earlier Henry Ford. re-
marking that he was mighty glad" to
do it, announced that he had restored
the $5-a-day minimum wage. This is
the famous wage which surprised the
Nation when it was established back
in 1914. Forty-seven thousand work
efs are affected.
Would Affect 1873 1000.
If the N. A. c. c. recommendation
is carried out by all its member firms
it will affect more than 1880 workers.
Ford is not member. His announce
ment did not mention working hours.
The announcements came on the eve
of National Labor Board conference
today in Washington called to settle
labor disputes in the industry in Mich
igan.
The board will hear from workers
and manufacturers in the Fisher Body
Co. and the Buick Motor Car Co. OF
Flint, Mich, and the Hudson Motor
Car Co. Of Detroit. Employees planned
to ask a 20 per cent increase over
present base wage rates and maxi
mum 40-hour week.
Labor Position Stated.
The chamber coupled its announce
ment with warning that its members
do not intend to submit to being CO.
creed extra-legally."
1T is the position of the labor union
organizers" the statement said, that
If a majority Of the employees Of q
plant choose to bargain through union
labor officials or committees. all en-
ployes in that plant must do so.
1T is the position Of the employers
that each employe has the right to
bargain with his employer individually
or through a representative of his own
choosing.
1T is the opinion of the employers
that the law, section IA Of the ma
tional recovery act. clearly sustains
that contention"
Chambers Recommendations.
The chambers recommendation pro-
vides that:
THE average weekly hours of pro-
ductive workers be reduced from 40
to SO and that compensating wage
increases over rates prevailing in Feb
ruary of 1884 be made effective on or
before March 81, 1884"
Henry Ford's restoration Of the IS
wage will, unofficial estimates said,
add approximately $6,ooo,ooo to the
company's annual pay roll. Forty
seven thousand of the 10000 Ford en-
ployes benefited They had been get
ting 81 and $40 day.
Low wages" said Ford, ARE the
most costly any employer can pay.
It's like using low-grade material
the waste makes it very expensive in
the end"

NEW YORK BANKER RETURNS FROM
 FOURTH CASSIAR EXPLORATION TRIP

Returning from his fourth trip into the Cassiar, F. c. Weems, New York banker, arrived in Wrangell Tuesday night. He took passage on the Alaska the following day for Vancouver enroute home.
 MT. Weems made his first trip into the Cassiar in 1929 with George Ball of Telegraph Creek as 'outfitter and big game guide. He hunted in the Jennings river area and secured several fine trophies, the most notable being white moose.
 His subsequent trips have been made with the objective of studying mountain sheep, exploring their ha- bitat to ascertain where the ranges of white, or Dahl sheep and the black or Stone sheep cross, which produces the Tanning type.
 Mir Weems cares little for big game hunting, alone, but is actu- ated by the spirit of adventure and exploration and finds keen enjoy ment in penetrating into the vari- ous areas of the vast wilderness of north British Columbia and Yukon Territory.
 In 1882 he made his second trip into the Cassiar, again with George Ball for guide. This time he hunted sheep for museum specimens from the Rapid river to the Turuagain range on the Muddy river. Last year he secured as guide, Allan Rit- chic, who lives at Wrangell during the winter and conducts the Dease River Transportation Go. through the summer, and went into the Rocky Mountains south of the mouth of the Muddy where he ob- tained a fine museum specimen of sheep at an altitude of 7400 feet. This neeessitated walking one hun dred miles south from the water way half way to Fort Nelson, at the farthest northern point it is possible to get black sheep.
 MT. Weems came north again last month and went into the Pelly range Ritchie joined him at Wran-

Mrs. tOhn-HanSen Will
 Stay Week In Wrangell

Mrs. Lydia Fohn-Hansen of the Extension Service of Alaska College arrived on the Norco and will spend week or more in Wrangell giving lectures and demonstrations of in terest to women. The time and place of meetings will be announce ed later.
 Those who wish special help in making patterns or altering gar ments or in making rug designs should make appointments with Mrs. Fohn-Hansen at the Wrangell hotel.
 There has been a great deal of interest in sewing during the past year and demonstrations show ing how to use and alter patterns have been a practical help to many home dressmakers. The cooking demonstrations have also been well attended.
 Mrs. Fohn-Hansen also has with her an interesting exhibit of vari- ous types of hand work which will be shown at the demonstrations.

BODY OF JOS. JOHNSON FOUND
 TANGLED IN GASB0AT LINES

When William Smith, young Pet ersburg Native tried to take in the anchor of his gasboat tied at the float near the Wrangell Hotel early Sunday morning he encountered much resistance which he foound came from the body of his father in-law, Joseph Johnson, which was tangled in the lines.
 Johnson, who was so years old, came over from Petersburg We'd nesday with MT. and Mrs. Smith It is said he began drinking the next day and when last seen on Saturday was said to be quite in toxicated According to the evidence heard by the coroner's jury, the body had been in the water about ten hours when it was found.
 Funeral services were held at the Salvation Army hall Wednes- day afternoon. Interment was in Redmen's cemetery. The deceased is survived by two daughters and one son, Miss Mary Johnson Of Peters burg. Mrs. Wm. Smith and Walter Johnson of Wrangell.

gell and made the trip with him up the Stikine river to Telegraph Creek and from there by auto stage to Dease Lake. At that point they transferred to Ritchie's 26- foot river boat with outboard mo- tors and headed for Francis lake by way of Dease, Liard and Fran cis rivers to the mouth of the Fin layson.
 The 400-mile water trip through the wilderness of northern British Columbia, crossing into Yukon Ter ritory was made without difficulty. The three-mile lower canyon of the Liard was portrayed for about one hundred feet but they were able to run through the second and third canyons.
 An Indian was hired by MT. Weems at Francis Lake to guide him into the Pelly range between the Liard and Pelly rivers at the headwaters of the Caribou river. After leaving the Finlayso Weems. Ritchie and the Indian with four pack dogs which had been secured from Leo Cormier on the Liard river, went southwest fifty miles by foot where they got into sheep country at an altitude of 6400 feet.
 The weather was very bad with twelve to eighteen inches of snow on the ground and the day sheep were seen there was quite a bliz- gard. MT Weems was unable to wait any longer to obtain any but he was able to see four sheep dark in color and proved to his satisfaction that it was not the true Dahl sheep area.
 He was handicapped in his sheen studies by the fact that owing to the scarcity of game in the coun- try, wolves having almost exter- minated the moose, the Indians have been compelled to hunt sheep for food. This has driven the sheep into the back ranges which are ex- tremely difficult of access.

Rusty Gun May Solve Mystery of Missing Man

Otto Peterson this week brought in a gun, loaded and very rusty. which he discovered close to the beach near the end of Wrangell Narrows where there is small is land and creek.
 The gun, which from it's appear ance, has been there for five or six years, was fixed in an upright po- sition with rocks and a strick that pointed up the canyon. A wire at tached to the gun had a loop in it which might have held a can with a message in it before the can fell to pieces.
 The gun has been left at the Charles Benjamin store. Mr Peter son thinks it might be identified and solve the mystery surrounding the disappearance of some person five or six years ago.

WESTWARD TEACHER GETS
 CHARGING BEAR AT 50 YARDS

Shooting a kidder bear at 50 yards while the raging beast was charging head-on, Miss Florence Schneider, Diana of the Westward open spaces, entered the third notch on her bear gun and called it day, says the Seward Gateway.
 That makes two brown bears and der is in Seward, preparing for a Russian River district hunt for sheep, goats and moose.
 While the kidder is a distinct specie and there is said to be many of them in the Westward, very few are generally seen and fewer still are bagged. Somewhat smaller than the brownie, with cream colored hide and black feet, the kidder is nevertheless something to deal with, and when Miss Schnei- der missed her first shot and the bear with snort, headed. in her direction, pictures of home and cheering fireside flashed across her vision. But she took careful aim and fired before the bear could get too uncomfortably close. One shot was enough.
 Miss Schneider, also a mountain climber, strapped on her knapsack the other day and hiked it alone to Mount Marathon's Summit. She has been here two days over a week and all roads, trails and bypaths about Seward are known to her.
 New Elum Fearless
 In October Miss Schneider will be back at False Pass to open up the fall term of school. She has been teaching there for two years, and four other years taught at Sand Point and neighboring communi- ties. Her home town is New Elum, Minn., but there wasn't even one kidder bear or anything like that running about the streets, or the right kind of mountains to climb so she came to Alaska six years ago and has been teaching school shooting bears and other big game ever since.
 Occasional trips to the Outside do not in the least intrude upon her love for Alaska outdoor life and right now she hasn't any definite idea of ever living anywhere else at least as long as there is kidder (bear of course) in the country.

JOHN McCALLUM REPORTED
 TO BE MISSING AT CHATHAM

John McCallum, watchman for the New England Fish company cannery at Chatham, disappeared from that place last Saturday, it was reported at Juneau by Dave Ramsey, purser of the steamer Kenai. Fears are felt that he might have slipped from the dock and fallen into the water. as the last time he was seen, early in the eve ming, he said he had to fix a light on the dock.
 MT. McCallum was a resident for many years at Wrangell and west coast of Prince of Wales points be- fore going to Chatham five or six years ago and his many friends in this district hope that the rumor of his disappearance is unfounded.

FRANCE ASKS EXTRADITION
 OF PAVELICH

PARIS, Oct. 19. - French au- thorities are demanding the extra dition of Pavelich. leader of the Croatian terrorists, who was ar rested in Turin last Thursday. The French also demand that Pave lich's assistant, Eugen Kvaternik. Before the Italian government can comply with these requests, how ever, 1t will be necessary to decide whether the part played by the two men can be technically regarded as a political crime or not. The usual practice is that those guilty of po- litical offences are not subject to extradition. Exceptions, however, are usually made in the case of murder. especially of promineLt statesmen or rulers.
 The Marseilles police have dis covered that Pavelich crossed the frontier into France September 30 to make preparations for the assas- ination of King Alexander of Yugo- Slavia.

G. Elton Barnes, in a recent let ter to the Sentinel, expressed the enjoyment of his family in the weekly visit of the Sentinel to their home in Modesto, California.

 Mr. Barnes was the son of the late MT. and Mrs. George H. Barnes, pioneer Alaskans, and was the first white boy born in Wran- gell. He and Mrs. Barnes and Elton Jr. send best wishes to all their old friends.
