Federal Fishing Regulations Are
 Aiding Industry
People of Alaska Are Co., operating Declares
 w. H. Tuesley

SEATTLE, July 14.-Increasing cooperation by the people of Alaska with the work of the U. s. Bureau Of Fisheries in enforcing the Fed eral fishing regulations is one of the most hopeful signs for the pres ervation of the canned salmon in- dustry in Alaska, according to Wal ter T. Tuesley of Kelley-C Clarke com pany and President of the Pacific Canned Salmon Brokers Associa- ton. Tuesley has just returned to Seattle from an inspection trip in the Territory.
 The regulations of the Bureau of Fisheries are very carefully drawn, and are scientifically de- signed to perpetuate the supply of salmon and to protect the quality Of the canned salmon pack" MT Tuesley declared. The short sight ed attempts of a small minority to beat the regulations for their own immediate gain are becoming less frequent every year. However, grave danger to the honest fiShemen and others in the industry from these law violators still exist. Such of lenses as illegal fishing can bring about a depletion of the supply to the extent that future earnings may be seriously affected. It is a possi- bility that tactics of this sort might cause such light run that it would be necessary to close large areas to fishing each year.
 Violation of the regulations regarding the time of delivery of fish to the cannery can be even more serious. Not only does this cause trouble with the Food and Drug Administration, resulting in heavy losses, but even worse, it undermines the confidence in Alas ka salmon on the part of the con- sumer," Tuesday continued If a housewife buys one single can of salmon that is not up to quality, she is pretty certain never to buy salmon again
 Alaska people are constantly be- coming mort aware of the immense value to Alaska of the work of the Bureau of Fisheries, and conse- quently the Bureau is getting more cooperation every year in it's efforts to protect the pack. This enlight- ened attitude promises much for the future of the Territory and it's residents who depend on salmon fishing and packing for their liv- ing"

MUSIC CRITICS GIVE <, PRAISE TO MISS REEF

Ellen Keep, contralto, whom Ju- neau will have a chance to hear tomorrow evening at the Northern Light Presbyterian Church, has re- ceived laudatory motives from mu- sic critics wherever she sings, both in the United States and abroad.
 The Washington Daily News of February l had this to say after she appeared there:
 Watch for a girl named Ellen Keep, American-born Norwegian contralto That's the kind of ccntralto voice people like to hear, all that the word contralto implies: and it's a treat to hear the dozens of comparatively unsung songs of the Scandinavian countries and oth- CTS not suited to our German and Italian operatic sopranos. Miss Keep, red blond, Nordic and stat, ueSque, pays her debt to the great Norwegian song writer, Edward Grieg, by sinting from several of his song cycles. But just as welcome, and showing off her dramatic gol- den voice to better advantage are the fine old and new Italian songs she sings, the dramatic Russian ones, and the exacting Handel pieces"

 All four are, at the moment, un- der Democratic Governors, although all normally are rated as Republi- can in National elections. That the Republicans will try for them in tensively is certain.

By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, July 14- Early forecasts in some quarters that President Roosevelt would supp ress" Secretary Of Agriculture Wal lace along with some other New Deal advisors during the campaign, in bid for conservative support, seem not to be fully borne out by the Secretary's recent activities.
 He went to the Philadelphia con- vention secretaries don't often do that without the Chiefs consenD and advocated a form of crop in- surance as part of the farm plank. A direct pledge t5r such insurance was not given but some close read.

Work has been started preparatory to completely fill the property of the Columbia Lumber Company in the rear of the Winter and Pond prof erty on Lower Franklin Street with rock from the Alaska Juneau mine.
 According to Thomas A. Morgan, manager of the Columbia Lumber Co, this has been decided as nec- essary to care for their increasing business and to provide a perma- nent fill creating a yard for the

storage of lumber and building ma terials of all kinds.
 In order to reach their property it was necessary to fill in a roadway at the rear of their property which can later be used for a building site without the necessity of using pil- ing. The fill is a rush job and the trucks engaged in the hauling of the rock are on a 24-hour shift.

FOR NEW INTERPRETATION

FOR NEW INTERPRETATION
 Even before the convention, ad- vance copies of Mir Wallace's new book, Whose Constitution" were circulated among the press and oth- CTS and were realesed after the convention for review and general reading. In that book he avocated not change in the Constitution, but changed interpretation of the Constitution.
 He went squarely to bat against Republicans by challenging their recommendations for greater state control as distinguished from New Deal standardization.
 To-day the states mark no eco- homie boundaries that make sense' he said, and they provide only lim- ited instruments for action to meet modern problems. Long ago the great corporations managed to break down states rights when they interfered with corporate ex- pansion"
 Today it is clear he stated also, that states rights are being in voked not for the rights which they defend but for the privileges they protect"

 Importance of such an examina- ton may be illustrated by experience in a group of Philadelphia hospitals. One group made blood tests for syphilis only when the history or physical examination led the physi- clan to suspect the disease. The result was that only 12 cases of the disease were diagnosed out of 3 total of more than 19,000 patients. The second group of hospitals serv- ing the same type of people made routine blood tests and in this n-

Syphilis exist among all classes of people and 1t is never safe to as- surne that 1t is not present in . given patient, Dr. Talbot stated. Those who have the disease rarely know 1t because many of these in- fections are acquired ir1nocently. For example, kissing may be at times Q means of spreading this tragic, familiar disease.
 It is serious thing to allow a woman to go through all the trials of motherhood only to have it end in case of congenital syphilis, the doctor continued. With the blood test, the disease can be detected and properly treated, thus reducing the number of births of dead or dis

New York, Sept. 4-The Wall Street industrial financial commun- ity is still lined up almost solidly against the reelection of Franklin D. Roosevelt, but with certain ex- captions, few mental reservations, and a fairly general tendency to fear the worst.
 Governor Landon is not a hero in the Wall Street area. That may be partly because of feeling that he hasn't yet fully demonstrated his capacity to straighten out the nations affairs. But it is certainly in part due to the fact that he has refused to take an outright conser- vative position and insists on demonstrating certain liberal lean- ingS.
 LandOn cOnspicuously refused, on his eastern trip, to rub noses with Old Guard leaders in New York state with whom Wall Street is on excellent terms. His declaration for repeal of the un- divided corporate surplus tax ap- peaIed to many financiers and big business men and his previous stand on labor was popular among conservatives. But there are Oth- CT factors which tend to make him somewhat less than an idol.
 The president of one of the larg- est corporations in America went west awhile ago laden with advice to see Landon. He came back re- porting that 40 one in the Landon camp at Topeka was in the least interested in his ideas, although some interest was displayed in the amount of money he might contri- bute.

Contributions Slowed Up

Reports from Chicago that con- tributions, especially from New York, aren't coming in to the re- publican treasury quite as rapidly as anticipated may reflect the fact that Wall street is nowhere as sure Roosevelt can be beaten as it was a few months ago.
 One hears of wealthy men who practically had pen in hand and then, hearing reports through pri- vate sources of muddle at Re- publican national headquarters. put their check books back, pend- ing more encouraging assurances. Chairman John D. M. Hamilton Is reported to be strengthening out that situation.
 In any event, everyone who knows anything about 1t seems to be sure the 6. o. p. will have far more campaign money to spend than will the democrats.

Congress Another Worry

Congress Another Worry
 Although the bitterness which the upper and near-upper crust in New York feels toward Roosevelt hasn't abated and shouldn't be minimized, one no longer hears many complaints based on the un- certainty of what to expect under Roosevelt.
 Whether the presidents assur- ances that new taxes won't be sought if he is still in the White House after December have had much to do with that is doubtful.
 'Big Business" operators have assimiIated the fact that the next congress will be democratic, cer- tainly in the senate and by all odds of probability in he House as well. And that still leaves "un- certainty" as an element to face, regardless of who's elected.
 Without morning into the issues between Wall Street and the presi- dent. it may be said that some of the relatively big figures in down. town New York have some lurid personal testimonials of experiences in Washington.
 Some of them have been pushed around by underlings - and very often to the wrong places-in a manner different from anything to which they are accustomed.
 
 Pained by Prestige Loss
 Nevertheless, some of the boys 8 couple of steps removed from the top are willing to admit that what really bites the captains of Wall Street and industry hardest is the fact that they have lost rather than regained prestige and power under the New Deal.
 As an erstwhile ruling class" they have been challenged by Roosevelt and his followers, as well as by congress.
 New York may not now be ruled from Washington, but Washington certainly is not ruled from New York, and New York can no longer get whatever 1t wants from Wash ington.
 Dividend Flood if F. R. Wins
 The Street, meanwhile, is antici- pating a big outbrust of dividends payments in December if Roosevelt is reelected. Some estimates say corporate disbursements might rise as high as $4,00O. .000, 900 for the year, nearly tWo-thirds of an anticipated net corporate income of more than $6,000, 100000.
 The new tax of ! to 27 per cent on undivided corporation profits ~ is responsible for these expecta- tions, but it is said that many boards of directors are withhold ing decision on dividend policies until after election, because Gov crnor LandOn has promised repeal of the tax.
 But even if Landon should win, the directors might still be in a box. They couldn't be sure Lan- don could persuade a presumably hostile congress to repeal the tax. i (COpyright, l036, NEA Service, Incl
