Legislator Expresses Inter- est in Progressive Laws
 for Territory

Representative Arthur P. Walker, fisherman from Craig, Alaska, was Juneau arrival on the steamer Northwestern to begin his first term as a Territorial Legislator.

 Born in Hanford, California, in 1887, Rep. Walker came to Alaska in 1905 and has engaged in the fishing industry for approximately 20 years, with the exception of his service in the United States Army during the World War.

President.
 Rep. Walker was educated in the public schools of California but gave up the formal education of schools for the more practical education of life itself, at the age of fourteen. Since then he has worked on farms, public works, and engaged in mining, numbering, teaming and prospecting as well as the fishing industry to which he has devoted the greater part of his adult life.
 T am extremely glad to be here and am looking forward with in terest to my legislative experience Rep. Walker declared. He is staying at the Gastineau Hotel.
 Rep. Walker is a supporter of President Roosevelt and his recov- cry policies. T believe he is work ing out the situation in sincere and able fashion and if allowed to carry out his ideas, will restore the country to a more prosperous condition" he said.

CONSERVATIVES
 GET CONTROL OF
 0L YMP|A HOUSE
Robert Waldron of Spo- kane Ele cted Speaker
 Over Lynden, Letter

OLYMPIA, Wash, Jan. l5.-Con- servative Democrats took control of the Washington State House of Representatives today, electing Rob- ert F. Waldron of Spokane speaker by a vote of 59 to 29. The action came after a day of balloting in which the lief wing element was pushing the candidacy of P. Van dyk of King country for the speak ership.
 Pooling of conservative forces, some of which favored the re-elec- ton of George Yantis of Olympia. who served as speaker last session. and Representative Ledgerwood, an east side man who was an avowed c n di d a te for the speakership brought about the victory over the left wingers who were solidly en- trenched with their 39 votes and had formed their organization weeks ago in preparation for showdown in the initial session.
 The Washington House will func- ton much the same as it did last session with the election of Wal dron, 1t appeared today, the left wing sufficiently strong to force issues and the conservatives hold ing the balance of power

mas Seals have made it possible for
4.6S1 Marylanders who have thought
that they had tuberculosis, or who
have felt manifestations of the dis
ease, to be examined in one or more
of the 218 clinics maintained for this
purpose by the Maryland Tubercu-
losis Association throughout the
counties of Maryland.
The results of the clinical service
of the Maryland tuberculosis Assocl-
alton for the past year show that out
of the 1851 examinations made l.
81S were discovered to be positive.

yiously diagnosed as positive and 594
were new cases. There were 499
persons diagnosed as suspects and The
remaining 2,366 persons were pro-
nounced negative.
The number of clinics held in each

mence on Thanksgiving Day and ex-
