IGNORANCE HEARTS LOCATION
 DEFEATS SUICIDAL INTENTION

Lester Boughton, 31, former resi- dent of Los Angeles, was taken to St. Ann's Hospital at Juneau last week suffering from a self-inflicted bullet wound in the left breast. A worker for about a month in the ECW camp at the Ebner mine bunkhouse, he is said to have be- come Respondent and tried to take his own life, shooting himself with .22 caliber highpower re- volver.
 Domestic difficulties are reported to have led to the rash act. Boughton, noted as one of the most cheerful men in the camp since he went there on May IA, seemed mo- rose and downhearted. He declared his intention of committing suicide but his companions talked to him and apparently had induced him to abandon the plan. They attributed his despondency to letter he had received, presumably from Mrs. Boughton.
 According to Dr. H. c. DeVighne, who treated Boughton, the bullet entered the chest about two inches above and to the left of the heart, inflicting a clean wound which missed any arterial blood vessel, passed through the lung, missed the ribs, and emerged under the skin near the fourth rib bit to the left of the shoulder blade.
 Dr. DeVighne stated that the man should be almost fully recov- cred and on his feet in week or two The doctor expressed the opin- ion that the wound was suicidal in intention, and that the reason for its non-fatal result, came from a common error in lay minds as to the location of the heart.

BOardway Starts Crab
 Cannery in Operation

The new crab cannery of the V machinery, fifteen cases of crabs L. Boardway & Company started operation Tuesday to test the new being processed, A few adjustments were made the following day and on Thursday a cannery crew of eighteen, shakers, packers and but chers, started operations in earnest, the plant operating very success fully.
 Additions will be made to the crew as soon as the ones now em- ployed become more proficient in the work and learn to work to- gether.
 The last of the machinery for the cannery arrived Saturday on the freighter Oduna. The plant is equipped with modern machinery of a type built exclusively for crab packers needs. It is full automat- ic vacuum with a speed of 40 to 60 cans per minute. A Hanging attachment keeps the paper liner down in the can while closing oper- ations are effected. This eliminates spoilage through improper seams occurring by the paper being fold ed in the seam.
 The crab pickers, or shakers, as they are designated in the Board way cannery, are to paid-three cents an-houR~ under the NRA pro- gram, for drained meat. The aver age wage at this price made by experienced workers Is 75 cents an hour and the shakers are allowed to work A hours a week MT, Boardway is using number of men, as well as women, on this work on account of the greater strength in their hands. All can- nery hour labor is paid a minimum of 38 cents an hour.
 The output of the new cannery will be handled by Eugene O'Neill of San Francisco, who has acted as broker for the past three years for the Ice-Pak Company of Cordova. The Boardway cannery while or ganized to fill the surplus orders of the Ice-Pak Company is a sep arate and independent company, all though it's output will be sold and marketed under the Ice-Pak label.

MAJOR ACTON
 TRANSFERRED
 FROM ALASKA

Staff Captains Joseph and Amy Acton, Salvation Army officers, re- gently received word of their pro motion to the rank of major.
 For the past six years Staff Cap tain J. Acton has been divisional commander of the Army in Alaska and northern British Columbia with headquarters at Wrangell. He has made a remarkable record although it was his first assignment to work among the Indians.
 With promotion in rank also came notice of his appointment as divisional commander of the Pro- vince of Alberta, Canada. This is an extensive territory reaching to the borders of Montana in the south and the Peace River in the north.
 He will have supervision of 57 officers in 2S corps besides a num- Der of outposts which work in con- junction with the corps. In this ter ritory there are several Salvation Army institutions, including Even tide Homes for the Aged, Men s Welfare institutions, Maternity Hos pitals and Children's Homes. While Major Acton will not have direct supervision of these, he will have certain duties and responsibilities in their operation.
 Major Acton's headquarters will be at Edmonton, where he will have office assistants who will re- lieve Mrs. Acton of the clerical work that she has carried in Wrangell. Her new duties embrace responsi- bility for all the Home Leagues, which function in the Army simi- larly to the Ladies Aid Societies and other womens church organi- cations. This work will require her to accompany her husband ire quently on his field trips.
 In view of his splendid abilities which so richly deserve a wider field Major Acton could be par doned if he felt that his superior of ficers had made a mistake in keep ing him for six years at post which has required such drain of physical energy in travelling be- tween Indian villages.
 Only those few men whose duties have required similar travel real ize what it has meant to get about in gasboats through rough and

MT. Wade explained in making public the code minimum that this should not be construed as any thing but. minimum. It does not limit a buyer of salmon in the price he may pay for the product but prohibits him from paying any less. In other words, Wade said, it provides a basic price which fish ermen are sure to obtain. If, by means of collective bargaining or other fair means, a higher level is obtained, it will meet with the approval of the administrator.
 Beside the price minimums set out for the various areas in Alaska, definitions covering employe fish ermen, their percentage of return on the value of gear, etc., is clearly set out in the announcement. Also, members of the industry are not allowed to limit deliveries of fish from employe fishermen to less than 500 fish per man in the fish ing crew in any 24-hour period.
 The schedule as announced by Mr. Wade follows:

If you have a large family
and wish to live downtown
here's the right place for you.
An apartment building offering
elevator and switchboard ser
vice has a unit vacant at this

ticularly large and offered
plenty Of space for meal prep

ton as the head of the family
could walk to work and the
younger members could walk to
school, which would be d way
to economic. The housewife
would only have a few blocks to
go to market so I think it would
suit them all. The rental asked
is more than reasonable for
value offered.
STONELEIGH COURTS:
Everybody is talking about

Semi-detached, with six rooms,

pleasure of your morning meal:
Upstairs a master bedroom and
two smaller ones, as well as an
open sleeping porch and bath.
With hot water heat, a lavatory

an exceptional bargain at $50.
