coo were paid Alaskans for trap caught fish, he explained.
 Work for Natives
 In arguing the industry was do- ing much for the natives of Alas ka. he referred to Korovin Island where Mrs. Helen R. Me1lick has done much work, where she is building a hospital, church, radio station, and has a herd of 80 cows built up. As. a result of the fish ing industry there is actual ,enl- ployment for residents of Alaska, a situation which otherwise the Ter ritory would have to care for itself as there is no other enterprise to take up the slack, he said.
 "There is no district fp Alaska where local help is not employed" :" Gilbert said, unless there be strike or something over which we have no control, and the traps serve in furnishing off-season em- ployment just when other things are shut down" 'l Referring 70 the British Colum- bia situation MT. Gilbert said: "'On account of the absence of traps in British Columbia, a distinct handi-. cap is imposed on the industry" He quoted British Columbia au- thority as follows:
 While the industry in Alaska pays more to it's fishermen for the raw product, pays better wag- es to it's cannery help and sells its product for less, it has been able to assume greater tax burden and show a greater profit than the industry in British Columbia"
 Others appearing before the com mittee were Frank Lloyd of the Ketchikan Packing Company; M. J. Heneghan of Ketchikan; Fred Lucas, Bureau of Fisheries war den in Bristol Bay; J. V. Davis, independent operator, and s. S. Lee, who put the first trap in Prince William Sound. 14~

Style Tips
And Fashions
BY Ethel Thomas

I wish to dedicate this column
to the very smartly dressed women
In Detroit. There are many who
are chic, from the top OF their
coiffures to the tips OF their la
quered toe-nails.
At this time. we are in the midst
OF fall shopping. The fall bride,
coed. business woman. as well as
busy housewives. are seeking a
complete wardrobe OF distinctive
styling. flattering lines. and be-
coming colors in exquisite fabrics
to meet their need In every detail.
For sports, there are knitted two
and three-piece suits; light
weight wooden dresses with large
metal clips. and buckles; also fur
trimmed. Plaid wooden dresses,
plaid and plain velveteen combi-
nations. fancy tweed dresses and
suits are being worn.
Nothing could brighten a dark
day more than the new "Floren-
tine" colors, In stunning models
for afternoon, In crepes, loires, and
sheer wool.
The new evening silhouette Is
positively divine You'll love the
willowy drapings. Grecian and
Victorian designs. bouffant and
tailored effects which lend their
glamor In the metallic laces, fl
my chiffons. printed. plain. and
stiffened taffetas. superb velvets,
printed crepes. metal laces and

Hats are worn In bright or dark
colors OF wine, rust, green brown.
reds and puppies. in off-the-face,
breton, toque and military styles.
Shoes can be had In these smart
colors. as well as bags and gloves
in suede, leather and suede combi-
nations. and gabardine. The even

very popular in silver or gold kid,
crepe or satin dyed to match your
gown.
Belts take on great importance.
They are worn in various colors,
In suedes and leather for sports +.
gold and silver kid, rhinestones
for evening.
Hair ornaments of gold, silver
and beads are much in vogue fol
evening.
Now. just a word regarding per
fumery. No woman wants her per
fumes to smell exactly like anoth
err persons. The more subtle
scent Is, the more completely In
dividual It becomes. To my MIND
ino matter hom smartly dressed
one may be. there is something

Mrs. Peck Speaks To
Women's Council Of
Second Baptist

The old adge. that IMAM works
from sun to sun but a woman's
work Is nevr DONE" was firmly
impressed upon the members OF
the Women's Council OF Second
Baptist Church. In a recent adj
dress by Mrs. Fannie Peck, found
er of the nationally known House
wives League.
Negro women have ever been
the pillar of the Negro church and
the main-stay OF the home" stated
Mrs. Peck. 1.-THE women of our
race to-day face difficulties as
critical as those she struggled
through In the time OF slavery.
Woman's valiancy in the present
economic crisis is positive proof
OF her fitness for her job. The
part she has played In the home
is history. but the Negro woman
is now making history In the
business world"
Mrs. Peck mentioned the great
accomplishments Of women like
Mrs. Mary Bethune. who In 1904
founded q teachers training
school and junior college In Flor
ida, that has now fourteen rsagni-
ficent buildings. She described the
evolution OF the beauty parlor,
how the kitchen served as the first
beauty salon, where the water
was heated on the kitchen range.
Women have proven to be efficient
workers in Offices and stores. They
can be found managing dress max
ing shops, laundries and restau-
rants. Mrs. Peck stressed the i'm
portance Of the Negro woman's
greatest job, her home, and the
partnership between husband and
wife. She also impressed upon
the ladies the acute need OF deal
ing With members OF the race in
order that the future OF our chill
dren will be be improved socially,
educationally and economically.
Mrs. Ida Postles, vice president
OF the Council. who has just re-
turned from an extended visit in
Texas. introduced the speaker.
Rev. Peck was present and gave
an interesting talk. The guests
