 Organization Now

WASHINGTON, April 29-Re- organization of the Bureau of Air Commerce was advocated today be- fore the Senate Air Safety Com mittee by J. M. Johnson, Assistant Secretary of Commerce. ft.st
 T think the bureau is improperly organized. Reformation in general should be, two divisions, one for con- struction maintenance facilities and the other for enforcement regula- tions, communications, radio. beams and teletypes, MT. Johnson said
 He gave the opinion as the com mittee resumed testimony on the air crash in Missouri in 1885 which kill ed Senator Bronson Cutting.
 Johnson said the United States leads the world in air safety, Avia- ton men in general are young and as a consequence, their actions are often impetuous rather than delib- crate" he said.

 Mundy saw a chair in the hands of the larger assailant. He man. aged to jerk backward with the other, who was still struggling against the strangle hold. The ot.l- CT caught the main force of the blow.
 The girl was standing still, ap- parently helpless. Madly he twist ed free. He staggered for an in- stant before he could steady him. self against a table. He showed the chair toward the Russians, then again seized the girls hand and tried to flee to the street with her. The old Chinese crone was scratch ing at him.
 "The two of you get out of here," Mundy was yelling. Get out of here!"
 The girl was beating at him with clenched hands. He started to lift her in his arms and make a run for 1t. There was a commotion from behind. A guttural threat sound ed in his ears. He gave her a frantic push toward the door and turned.
 The larger of the Russians was | hurtling at him, Mundy tried to sidestep. One clawing hand tore his dinner coat from his back. The man turned almost in midair and tried to grasp Mundy from behind in his bearlike arms. Mundy kept him away with driving fists. Weav- ing slightly, he forced the other backward.
 He heard the girl scream. He saw shadow swinging toward his head and ducked, at the same time plunging a right hook into the stomach of his opponent. A bottle broke across the upper part of his back. The force of the blow sent Mundy sprawling under & table, nearly senseless.
 He managed, llnalIy, O puSil IiIAi- self up from the floor. A red haze seemed to envelop everything. The two Russians, one on each side, were leading the girl toward the stairs. With a final burst of energy Mundy threaded through the milling mob by leaping from one tabletop to another. The girl and the Rus sians turned at his shout. One loosened his grip on the girls arm. Mundy leaped feet first at the man, smashing his heels against the Russians chest. He lost his bal ance and had to backcrawl from the other. Then, with the aid of the wall, he managed to stand.
 The two huge Russians ap- preached him slowly, one from each side. Mundy attempted to rush be- tween them to the girl who stood alone in little cleared circle. He crumpled and fell face down at her feet, one hand tearing at his collar. To Be Continued

 Hanukkah takes its name from the fact that the Temple was puri- fled and re-dedicated to the service of God after it's recapture from the hands of the Greeks who had de- filed 1t with pagan and idolatrous worship. Literally the name means Dedication" but the holiday is also known as the Feast of Lights be- cause of the custom of lighting candles during the festival: one can de, the first night; two, the second and SO on. until on the last night the candelabrum blazes with eight lights.
 This custom is derived from a le- gend which tells that during the re- dedication ceremonies 8 cruse of oil which was thought scarcely adequate for one day, miraculously served to keep the lamp alight for full eight days. The hero and central figure of the festival is the stalwart Judah Maccabeus who led the struggle to resist the Greeks and their com-

 Just how much protection do you think she is?"
 "Oh, don't know, Mr." He could feel her stiffen. Her voice lost much of It's lightness. "I'm sorry. I forgot we were not to ask names."
 Perhaps some time we'll meet under different conditions"
 He felt her eyes on him. An ill., matched couple lurched toward them. He automatically held them off with one hand.
 T can't make you out" she was saying.
 "Why try? There's more inter- esting people here."
 "Just why did you dance with me?" The first spell of meeting had worn off, and she was thought full. Then he felt her start, then gasp aloud. "OoooI"
 The same ill-matched couple had jostled her. They were rapidly pi- voting away with missed apologies and, Mundy saw the handbag. It flashed into Mundy's mind that this was a trick of the proprietor. He shot out a right hand. His fingers slipped off the silken back of the woman's gown, nails rasping. He started after the pair before he real ized the girl was holding him back.
 You don't go," she famed. No you don't"
 But your bag That man stole it."
 "Your confederate stole it, you mean" she said scatifingly. Her face was drained of color. Maybe he'll get away, but you won't escape 50 easily. That is why you were so friendly! You're a thief. a low down thief. But you're not going to run away to laugh at Jean Stre- bor."
 That name was familiar. He tried to place it. :.
 "You've got everything wrong" People were pressing around them. Let me explain later. Look at this mob. It isn't safe here. Get out- side with your woman. I'll get your bag and join you"
 "YouTl not trick me again." She resisted his every attempt to make way for her through the crowd Mundy was as anxious to avoid fur ther disturbance as he was not to hurt her. Maybe I have been an idiot, but you're not going to run away to laugh at me-" The Battle Starts Mundy saw the two giant Rus sians, who had entered the cafe shortly before her, pushing their way closer. They loomed above the shorter Chinese. Still she strug- gled.
 "You little fool! It's not safe for you here."
 The Russians were reaching in her direction.

mand that the Jews should ekaa= don their God and worship zeus.
 Hanukkah is observed with syna- gogue services and with home cele- brations. Tn the former the ideals of religious liberty and t0leratlon are stressed. Hanulzkah parties, the giving of gifts, remembering the needy, children's games and goodies all are part of the modern obseT% canoe of the festival.
 Added significance is lent the holiday at the present time by the persecution which Jews are suffering in some European countries. The biblical verse from the Prophet Zee chariah in which the Maccabees placed their faith and which Is read in the synagogue during this season now on new meaning, Not by might and not by power, but by My Spirit saith the Lord of Hosts"

 Listen you don't know me or my business, so shut up" His lips frightened. For the last time, do I get that rye or do have to tear this place apart?"
 The hybrid proprietor moved back step, then unclasped his hands and motioned. A green- gowned boy padded to the table with bottle and two small glass; es. The proprietor filled the glasses. He put one politely in front of Mundy, then slid inconspicuously into a chair behind the other. Mundy drained the whiskey with out apparent thought or apprecia- ton.
 "The honorable gentleman is without money, no?" the other murmureQ. InaC SnOulu not pc. Money is to be secured even in wretched places like this. Have you not noticed foolish foreign wo- men who come here for sightsee- ing? pay guides to bring them. I have noticed some of them star ing at you. perhaps thinking you great hero."
 Mundy, hearing only scattered words of the one-sided converse ton, felt a draft stirring up the heated atmosphere. There was a burst of falsetto voices, Scraping feet and distant automobile horns A door slammed. Two huge men, evidently Russians, were descend- ing the short flight of stairs from the street.

He saw the hybrid proprietor of the place shuffling toward him.
 What d'you want now?" Mundy growled. How many people do I have to order that rye from before I get it?"
 "The gentleman has impatience, no?"
 And money!"
 The proprietor smiled elegantly. His lustrous eyes seemed to remain motionless in his oily face, yet they took in every detail of the others appearance: the black tie dangling Imply from the loosened collar, the wrinkled and spotted tuxedo, the hard body whose vigor not even weariness could dispel.
 "No money has been seen for many nights" he regretted.
 I'm waiting here for chap who has plenty of money, I tell you. Can I help 1t if the boat schedules are screwy? Maybe if China could clean out some of her parents and bandits" He stopped and glanced around guardedly. The bird-like chatter of a nearby group of Chi nese women, their faces as white as alabaster and their blue-black hair molded to their small, round heads, had not quieted Do I get that rye, or don't I?"
 A Bad Memory
 "One thing" the proprietor purred. Excuse if I suggest you seem honorable fool. Wait, I beg yoni So sorry, so sorry" His voice lowered cunningly. Docs it not seem strange that blonde missy who was here with gentleman that first night, five nights removed, so sud- denly received message to depart?"

designations of Two Ofic CTS Asked by Mayor to
 Promote Harmony

Assistant Chief of Police William Markle and City Patrolman George Gilbertson have resigned from the Juneau police force, effective i'm mediately, it was made public today
 Mayor l. Goldstein stated that he had requested the resignations in an effort to promote harmony ir the department. Trouble has exist ed between the two men more than year, the Mayor said, with the re- suit that it has been detrimenta. to the Police Department and the city. It was reported that the diff ferences reached the stage recently where one of the men invited the other out in the alley to settle the matter with fisticuffs.
 Tt is very distasteful to me to have to ask for the resignation oi any one," the Mayor said, but we can't have such things going on. Personally, I have the highest regard for the men. but we must have harmony and efficiency in the Police Department"
 Markle has served on the police department for the last three years and Gilbertson has been a city of ficer two years.
 Confirmation by the City Coun- cil has yet to be obtained, the Mayor said, and in the meantime no ofsic- ial appointments will be made to fill the vacancies. The matter of temporary men to handle police work has been left to Chief of Po- lice Roy Hoffman, the Mayor stat ed.
 Since Markle and Gilbertson were relieved from duty after their Sun day shift, both men having been on night work, C. H. MacSpadden former Deputy U. S. Marshal here and Republican candidate for Ter ritorial Auditor in the recent pri- mary election, has been working on the department in temporary ca pacity two nights, the Chief said Whether his work would be made permanent could not be ascertained Chief Hoffman said no appoint ments had been made so far.
 Former Assistant Chief Markle when asked about the matter today said he had been relieved of duty Sunday and he had rendered his resignation. He said that in view of the difficulties that had arisen he saw nothing to do but step out He explained that he and Chief Hoffman were not in accord or po- lice matters. The former officer added that he was the only man from the Police Department whc could cooperate with Federal off cers.
