Flying Thor Distribute
Court House Literature

Election morning, Tuesday, fly
ing Thor Thorstenson, in his nlane
accompanied and assisted by Mar
tin Nelson and Roger Lewis, show
cred dodgers and posters from the
sky over every town in the coun-
tv urging the people to get out and
vote on the Court House Bonding
issue. The leaflets looked like
sheets of silver and gold as they
glietened in the brilliant light.
The orange colored plane car
ried the Inscription in bio letters
underneath. "vote for the Court
House." and attention was attrac-
ted to the plane by the shrieks of
fire Stern.
The children in everv VILLAGE
rushed for the silver and gold
sheets as they descended from the
sky.

confidential" The foreman
showed the victim the let
ter to prove he had nothing
against him, and told him
he was the best man that
had ever worked for him.
He had told two other men
the same thing about a cOu-
pie of weeks before. This
man had been working On
the dam two years. There
are eleven in his family.
He had been unemployed
three years. He is one Of
the finest, steadiest charac-
tiers on the project, but OF
course he must be a ''radi-
CAL"
He had always been ac-
tive in trying to get the
right to move out. Another
man was offered tn e
chance when the layOffs
came alOng-tO stay on by
taking a cut. He was offer
ed this six hours before
the order came to fire him.
He was the man that led
the Protest Parade. Now
efforts are being made to
prevent him from having
an emergency operation for
hernia before he leaves the
project.
Twenty welders struck in
the tunnels the other day.
Some of them had refused
to 90 down in the bucket
after the safety engineer
prohibited it. They were
fired. The others demanded
that the pink slips be un-
animOus. That ended the
firing.

B. M. Stone, editor of the Fair banks News Miner, who passed through Juneau several months ago enroute to the States for medical attention, and Mrs. Stone are pas- sengers on the Alaska returning to their home in Fairbanks.
 MT. Stone reported that he has gained 19 pounds in weight and is now feeling fine. The Stones spent about two months in San Francisco and two months in Los Angeles. They received many inquiries about Alaska from Californians, MT. Stone said. particularly about mining.
 MT. Stone reported that his friend P. D. Malone, Fairbanks merchant, who is also a passenger aboard the Alaska returning from a trip to the States, suffered an unusual acci- dent. After forty years in Alas ka," MT. Stone said, Pete Malone froze his ears for the first time in his life while visiting in Wisconsin. ." With the exception of a "preview of the Gulf of Alaska while cross ing Clarence Straits, a fine trip north from Seattle to Juneau was reported by MT Stone. A tide rip and stern wind caught the ship unaware, he said. Dishes were thrown from the tables" he re- ported, and chairs played checkers all over the social hall and socked few of the passengers"

will take for presentation to the House is not known, the best guess is that it will follow closely the lines of the bill sponsored by Rep reSentative Mead of New York which calls for drastic amendment of the present law-the 30-year- old pr. Wiley act
 The argument has been advanced that under the Wiley act a vast a ount of litigation has been threshed out, helpful both to the Government and to all others con- cerned. Substitution of an entirely new bill, such as the Copeland emasure, would mean the loss of these legal interpretations and go- ing over the same ground again.
 Ultimately, however, the law to prevail probably will be written in what is sometimes called the third House'-the conference.

About two weeks after his landing,
he received a call saying that an old
friend wished to see him at the earliest
possible time. He made an appoint
ment for the next day. and 10 and be-
hold, the friend appeared in the per-
son of-Slippery Haines!

WHATS on your mind now?"
questioned Jim. "I thought you
said that you'd leave me alone if
did this for you.
Yeah, sure I did. but you made
such a good job of being John Haines
that I've decided to be myself again
All you've got to do is fade out of the
picture"
"Oh, get it now. I do all the dirty
work and you get all the glory. Well,
I won't do it."
Have you forgotten what can tell
about you? 1t would still mean rs
years"
Listen, youl. I've feared men. I've
feared your cowardly framing and I've
feared death, but after what I've been
through overseas. fear nothing. Now
you two-timing blackmailer, get out of
here!"
With that Slattery dealt Haines
stunning blow to the jaw. knocking
him through the open door from where
Haines picked himself up, muttering,
You'll regret this"
T TPON returning to his quarters the
next evening, Slattery discovered
that they had been ransacked and all
his identification papers, medals and
souvenirs had been stolen. Immedi-
ately he went to police headquarters
and related his whole story. The po-
lice commissioner welcomed his in
formation and said that he need fear
no more from Haines because this was
reason enough for them to arrest him
as draft evader.
Slattery led two squads of police to
the hotel where Haines was residing.
Upon asking for him at the desk, they
we're told that less than Is minutes
previous he had been taken to the
morguNdead.
The coroner was about to pronounce
it a murder because of the absence of
any weapon when Slattery explained
it all, Among my trophies of war was
a deadly pistol which appeared to be
a snuff box. Upon pressing a certain
spring on the bottom. a cartridge was
exploded. Haines must have done that
accidentally"
When they returned to the room
they found this snuff box gun under
a chair where it had fallen, righteous

and he invited Jim Slattery, a man
who looked Just like him, to his sump-
tuously furnished apartment on Con-

About 7 o'clock that evening Jim
arrived puzzled at what Haines could
want of him.
Hello, JIM" said Haines, "hows

(. Haines spent all the next morning
in gathering material concerning the
J Newport job to convince Slattery,
should he become defiant. That noon
they met in the main dining room of
a big hotel. AS soon as the dinners
had been ordered, Haines said, We'll,
Jim. what's your answer?"

Three weeks later Jim received his
