SECURITY LAW
CHANGE DUE

Consideration is being given to
a number of suggested changes in
the social security legislation for
the District and Congress at the
coming session may be asked to
amend portions of the law.
John A. Marshall. executive
director of the local unemploy-
ment compensation board, has
suggested the mandatory tax in
crease en- employers payrolls due
next year and in 1888 be re-
moved. On the basis of present
returns, Marshall said, approx
mately 100000 will be col
lected next year.
Marshall expressed the belief
that the compensation board
should be given discretion on the
matter of raising the payroll
tax. He said that he believed
the 100000 will be ample.
The tax, now per cent of
the payrolls, will be boosted to
2 per cent next year and 3 per
cent in 1888.
Elwood Street, Director of Pub
lie Welfare, has urged increase in
personnel for the handling of old
age, needy blind and crippled and

 5S FEET SUNDAY

Chuck Dominy, prominent in amateur diving circles along the Pacific Coast and in Hawaii, who has spent the winter here, plans to take one or two test dives from the Douglas bridge this week, be- fore giving an exhibition some time Sunday afternoon. The stunt will mark the first time that any human being has ever jumped or diyed from the span. The drop is approximately 58 feet at mean tide.
 Dominy, member of the 1882 Olympic team, stated emphatically that the dive Sunday is not spon- sored by anyone, and that he is receiving no remuneration of any kind for the leap. He is doing it for the sport of it, and for the practice it affords. He plans to leave Juneau June 12 for the States, to get in condition for the summer aquatic and diving events.

 FLOODED NOW
Two Rivers Reported High -Atlin District Ex-

Within the last two days the town of Tulsequah at the junction of the Tulsequah and Taku Rivers, has been flooded by overflow water from the Taku River resulting from un- usual volume of drainage from neighboring glaciers due to recent hot weather, according to Leonard Delano, local photographer who re- turned to Juneau yesterday from Atlin aboard the North Canada Air Express Pilgrim plane piloted by L. F. Barr.
 Riuer OuertlolO
 On the flight from Juneau to Atlin last Monday, water in the Taku River was at a normal level, and on the return flight the river had overflowed it's banks at Tul- sequah. isolating the houses and ex- tending for some distance into the timber on both sides of the river at that point At a point below the village where the valley is flatter and the river banks lower the water has flooded the country for a distance of about quarter of a mile on each side of the river, De- lano said
 Freight Submerged
 A quantity of freight belonging to the Whitewater Taku mine, six miles up the Tulsequah river, which had been unloaded from river boat on the bank of the Taku river at Tulsequah, had either been re- moved to the mine or was entirely submerged, he reported.
 Atlin Is Dry
 Conditions at Atlin, however, are the reverse, Delano reported. A shortage of water in creeks neces- sary for mining operations in the Atlin area is anticipated unless considerable rain falls this summer. The temperature at Atlin was 83 degrees above zero last Tuesday he said or three degrees lower than the highest temperature ever re- corded at that point.
 A quantity of pictures of mining operations in the Atlin district were taken by Delano, who also took a few pictures from the plane of flood conditions at Tulsequah.

VISITORS SPEAK
 BEFORE CHAMBER LUNCHEON TODAY
Seattle Chamber Man, Scout Executive, w. K. Keller
 Juneau Guests

Bringing messages from Seattle, Anchorage and the Boy Scouts, three visiting speakers appeared be- fore the Juneau Chamber of Com merce at its weekly luncheon to- day in the Terminal Cafe. - They were Edward F. Riley of the Alaska Committee of the Seattle Cham ber w. K. Keller, former Commis- sioner of Education and now Super intendent of Schools at Anchorage. and w. B. Hubbell, Boy Scout Field Executive for the Seattle area
 Pointing to the aim of the Scout movement to build good citizens, MT. Hubbell called attention to the appalling cost of crime throughout the nation, most of it being juvenile The average age of the criminal to- day, he declared, is 19 years and for each boy or girl who gets into the hands of the law it costs the taxpayer $487. Records reveal, he said, that one in each 25 youngsters at some time are taken into GUS tody.
 Crime Committed by Kids
 Crime" he declared lis not caused by older persons. Crime !s committed by kids. It is something to think about"
 The Scout movement is aimed to direct youth in the right course that crime might be avoided, and the big problem, he explained, is not so much getting the boys to join the Scout movement but, rather, get ting men to give of their time in promoting it. He praised those who are doing so much in this work and urged others to participate and help the boys in becoming straight-for- ward upright citizens who will carry on when the oldsters of today have i passed on.
 | Movement Growing i Scouting in Alaska, MT. Hubbell pointed out, has been growing by leaps and bounds. He said 100 per ! cent increase had resulted in the last year. There are troops as far north at Fort Yukon.
 The Field Executive paid compli- ment to the Juneau men who have made such progress in the past years, now having four troops and a sea scout unit A boat has been donated the latter by Archie w Shiels, widely known Bellingham fishing operator.
