Executive Board Votes $l00-PAA Suspension
 Order Is Protested

Enlargement of the amount to be spent in preparing and shipping test allotments for experimental purposes of local blueberries to can neries in the States, and inclusion in those shipments of another fruit, red huckleberries, were two import ant announcements made at the luncheon meeting of the Chamber of Commerce at Bailey's Cafe today.
 The plan to interest national packing concerns in Juneaus blue berries was fostered by the Cham Der on June 4, when the Local h. dustries Comm i t tee, h a d ed by Charles Naghel was authoriza1 co prepare shipments for t.ic Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company Since then, the possibility of the Suss- man and Wormser Company IS. and w. brands) also being interested, has been discussed.
 At the Executive Boards meet ing Tuesday it was decided to raise the amount needed to pay the costs of the shipments to $l00. An indefi- nite sum, not to exceed $50, had been allotted before. It is hoped by the Chamber that the tests will prove the practicability of installing fruit cannery here, adding another local industry.
 Flights Cancelled
 That news was ranked in inter- est by another bf.siness detaA-the announcement tbAt the Pacific Alas ka Airways has received orders from it's New York office to suspend all seaplane optrations in Southeast Alaska on feptember l. This order, 1t was explained, does not effect the Junesr-Fairbanks route. However, the Executive Board of the Cham Der, it was reported, felt that good flying conditions exist here at least until October l, and have petitioned the New York headquarters of the PA to rescind the closing order.
 The Rev. Bernard Hubbard, fam ed glacier priest" from Santa Clara University, was the speaker of the day. In an interesting talk, he re- viewed his speaking tour of the States last year, explaining his Aleutian Islands storm theory and gave his reactions to the Matanuska Valley colonization project, which he visited recently before coming to Juneau to conduct temperature tests of Mendenhall and Taku Gla- clcrs.

 The public and private activities of MT. Herbert Hoover are causing more discussion among the politi- clans than almost any other fea- ture of the national political scene. Whether or not it is indicative of their actual expectations, some of those in the inner Roosevelt circle at Washington have been offering even money or better than the for mer President will be renominated by the Republicans.
 Among the Republicans them selves, distinct cleavage on this subject grows more apparent con- stantly. There have been some warm private arguments between those who think MT. Hoover has the best possible claim on the nomination, and those who think that for the good of the party he should an- nounce at once that he will not be a candidate.
 His Chicago statement, challeng- ing the Democrats to say exactly what they want to do about chang ing the constitution, has greatly en- livened the argument. It was inter- preted almost universally as the nearest he has come thus far to actually bidding for leadership in 1886.

FAIRBANKS SHIP BELIEVED DOW N WEST OF DAWSON
Craft Carrying A. G. Nor- dale, Mr., Mrs. Lonz, Last
 Seen Over Chicken Ok.
PLIERS BOMBING
 NORTH COUNTRY
Bad Weather May Have Forced Pilot Down at
 Isolated Place

The rugged mountainous country between Dawson, Y. T.. and Fair banks, Alaska, is today being comb ed by planes searching for the ship carrying Pilot Arthur F. Hines, Mir. iand Mrs. John Lonz. Fairbanks businessman and wife, married only a month ago and Alton C. Nor dale, Clerk Of the United States District Court for the Fourth Di- vision and member of the last two Alaska Territorial Legislatures.
 The plane has not been reported since taking off from Dawson for Fairbanks last Monday afternoon.
 Over Chicken Creek
 The plane was last reported over the Chicken Creek country.
 It is believed that Pilot Hines set down deliberately through some misfap or account of weather.
 Searching planes are equipped both for landing on water as well as land,
 Today's search is in charge of and directed by Murray Hall, De- partment of Commerce, Aeronautics Branch, Inspector of Alaska. who is flying his own Stinson plane.
 Many in Search
 Other fliers engaged in the search are:
 Harold Gillian. Cordova aviator, operator of an independent service line: Percy Hubbard, independent flier, partner of Hines; Al Mon- son, PAA pilot, s. Christensen and H. S. Lynn.
 M. w. Saseen and Vern Brook walter have been on the search for the past two days with the others.
 Irony of Fate
 Mrs. A. Nordale and two chil- dren, the family of one of the pas- sengers aboard the missing plane. travelled by plane from Juneau to Fairbanks Tuesday afternoon, while the search was in progress. Mrs. Nordale, who arrived on the Alaska shortly before the Juneau plane took off for Fairbanks, did not know that the Arthur Hines plane. taking her husband to Fairbanks from Dawson, was missing, until her arrival in Fairbanks By an irony of fate the plane carrying Mrs. .Nordale flew over at least a part of the route Hines plane should have traversed.

SECURITY ACT AS II APPLIES
 TO NORTHLAND
Territorial Legislature Must Take Action Regard
 ing Pensions

l WASHINGTON, Aug. l0.- Spec ial Correspondence) Commonly known as the Social Security Act, H. R. 7260, a bill to establish a system of Federal old-age benefits to make provision for aged persons, dependent and crippled children, maternal and child welfare, and unemployment insurance, passe d both houses of Congress August 9 in it's final amended form as re- ported out of conference and was later approved by the President.
 What Act Does
 The Social Security Act does not provide outright Federal pensions to aged persons but it is planned Ito provide financial cooperation with the various States that have pension laws meeting the require ments of the act. To, benefit from the plan the State laws must pro vide for old-age assistance on the following lines: IL must; provide that the plan shall be Statewide in its application, provide financial participation by the State, be ad- ministered by a single State agency, provide for granting to any indi- vidual whose claim for old-age as- sistance is denied, an opportunity for a fair hearing before such State agency, and must provide that the State agency will make such reports as the Social Security Board shall require. The State plan must not exclude any resident of the State who has resided therein five years during the nine years immediately preceding the appli- cation for old-age assistance and has resided therein continuously for one year immediately preceding the application.
 Requirements in Alaska
 The existing, laws relating to pen sions in Alaska, do not meet the above requirements to make the Territory eligible to participate in the benefits of the act, however, the act provides That in order to assist the aged of the several States who have no State system of old-age pensions until an op- portunity is afforded the several States to provide for a State plan, financial participation by the States, and notwithstanding any other provision of this title, the Secretary of the Treasury shall pay to each State for each quarter until not later than July 1, l937 to be used exclusively as old-age assistance, in lieu of the amount payable under the provisions of clause CD of this subsection, an amount sufficient to afford old-age
