REINFORCEMENT ON CEMETERY
 IS CONDONED
City Council Considers Number of Problems in
 Drawn Out Night Meet

The problem of the property own CTS on Twelfth Street, who have built their garages and woodsheds on Evergreen Cemetery property, occupied the major portion of a slow, drawn-out City Council meet ing held in the City Hall Chambers last night, with all members pres ent except Councilman McKinnon.
 James Larsen, one of the property owners who had been asked to re- move a garage from the cemetery property, appeared before the coun- cilmen and asked that some decis- ion be made on whether the Twelfth Street residents were or were not to move their garages. MT. Larsen pointed out that as long as the city has no need for the strip of ground in question and probably never will need it, he could see no valid reason why the homeowners should be put to so much expense to move their garages. He also pointed out the great number of other buildings in Juneau built on city property, in- cluding the Fair Building and the tennis courts.
 Appeal Is Nude
 Frank Foster, Juneau attorney, had the floor next, and in behalf of his clients, MT. and Mrs. Frank Garnick, who have woodshed on the cemetery property, pointed out that permitting the Twelfth Street citizens to leave their garages and woodsheds on the city property would not in any way injure the city, as the statute of limitations cannot be envoked against the sov- ereign, (tle city in this easel.
 A discussion of whether the AL aska Juneau mine, and the Alaska Gastineau before it, ever had an easement for the power line which passes over the strip of cemetery land followed. MT. Foster told the council that he could find no rec ord of such on file in the Recorders Office.
 The Mayor asked for opinions of Councilmen on the subject Coun- cilman McCafferty agreed with MT. Fosters sentiments MT Krause asked why the city shouldn't sell the land to the property owners who were using it. Mayor Gold stein replied that the City had no authority to sell the land. Coun- cilman Reck advised the city to rent the land for $l year. Coun- cilman BeiStline brought up the

Whether the Remedy
You are taking for
Headaches, Neuralgia
or Rheumatism Pains
is SAFE is Your Doctor.
Ask Him
Don't Entrust Your
Own or Your Farnily's
Well-Being to Unknown
Preparations

REFORE you take any prepara-
- ton you don't know all about,
for the relief of headaches; or the
pains of rheumatism, neuritis or
neuralgia, ask your doctor what he
thinks about it in comparison
with Genuine Bayer Aspirin.
We say this because, before the
discovery of Bayer Aspirin, most
so-called pain remedies were ad-
vised against by physicians as being
bad for the stomach; or, often, for
the heart. And the discovery of
Bayer Aspirin largely changed
medical practice.
Countless thousands of people
who have taken Bayer Aspirin year
in and out without i'll effect, have
proved that the medical findings
about its safety were correct.
Remember this: Genuine Bayer
Aspirin is rated among the fastest
methods yet diScoDered for the relief
of headaches and all common pains
:. and safe for the average person
to take regularly.

Scientists Believe Ice

French scientists who have been
conducting experiments in east

ice in the air over the polar regions.
This ice ceiling (congealed atmos-
phere million times finer than wa
teri is situated approximately 80
miles above the earth.
The discovery was made when
electrical impulses from an electric
sounding machine were reflected
back. Time of the impulses in tran
sit was recorded and computations
made which gave the height of the
ice layer. This ice is believed to be
the cause of the storms at sea.-Path-
