SOVIET PLANE
 HOPS OFF FOR
 SIBERIA TODAY

In the start of maneuverlng tor position in which to taxi down Safety Lagoon, the wind blew the plane up onto another sand bar, but fortunately Pilot Levan- evsky did not give it full throttle and a row boat put out from the shore and managed to pull the plane sideways so that the motor could be used to get it into deep water. The ship then taXied down the lagoon for about mile and at 1:57 PM. took the air in front of the roadhouse at Safety, where Mayor Chas. Dalquist had been playing host to many Nome ties and the Soviet airmen for the past thirty-siX hours.
 About ten minutes after leav ing Safety they flashed past Nome headed up the coast for Teller, Wales, East Cape and Uelen.
 Exceptionally fine services were rendered by the U. S. Weather Bureau at Nome, and the U. S.. Signal Corps here, in securing all available weather reports and conditions for transmission to the fliers at Safety. Long hours were spent yesterday, last night and this morning, contacting Si- berian stations and keeping a close check on the weather devel- opments.
 Services were also rendered by numerous individuals at Safety during the time when they ex perienced difficulties over ground ing on the sandbar. Two hundred gallons of gasoline were taken aboard at Safety, supplied by the Lomen Commercial Co.,, agents at Nome for Standard Oil Company.
 Many pictures of the plane and the Soviet pilots were snapped by photographic hounds" and may be seen on display and for sale at local photographic shops.

CAPITAL HOST
TO 100000 ON
LABOR DAY
Ideal Weather Jams
Highways With D. c.
Visitors, Tourists

With perfect weather, Washing.
ton today observed Labor Day and
was host to close to 100000 visi-
tors.
While residents of the Capital,
freed from their daily tasks, left
the city by thousands to enjoy
the holiday weekend, other thou
sands came here by railroad, auto
mobile, boat and airplane to spend
the holiday.
The White House, Washington
Monument and other points of in
terest in the city were thronged
with visitors, and sightseeing
buses were crowded to capacity.
Weather is Perfect
The crowd of visitors was the
largest here since the Cherry Bios
som time last spring, and they
we're rewarded with perfect
weather.
The mercury yesterday reached
a maximum of only IS degrees. and
was expected to go slightly higher
today, with fair weather forecast.
Meanwhile, with summer soon to
end, Washington residents took
advantage of the three-day week
end to go to nearby beaches and
resorts, and highways were crowd
ed with pleasure seekers.
AS labor generally observed the
day of rest, Secretary of Labor
Frances Perkins issued a state
ment that approximately one mil
lion workers have been placed by
private industry in the last year,
and that there had been a weekly
wage increase of close to $24,-
900, 900.
Lewis Is Visitor
One of the visitors to Washing
ton today was John L. Lewis,
head of the United Mine Workers
and leader in the Committee for
Industrial Organization move
ment. He is scheduled to deliver
a radio address from here later
today.

Ken Murray
Says:

Labor Day! Oh, Labor Day!
Yes sir, that's what it is,
and we should be glad that
this is one of the few countries
where one can take the day off
to rest, without interrupting a
war.
OF course, as far as most of
the Works Progress AdminiStra-
ton workers are concerned,
they can just continue doing
what they have done the rest
of the year. Only, today it's
legal.
Just a few years ago we were
promised two chickens for
every pot, but that was way
back in the horse and buggy
days. Now, it's two men on
relief for every taxpayer.
This celebration of Labor
Day is all very nice, but bust.
ness men are beginning to
wonder when the New Dealers
are going to let capital have
its day.

EXTENSION AT

Government Should
Lead Industry,
Says Union

The United States Government
is Tagging behind" private indus
try in instituting the five-day
week, according to an announce.
ment today by the American Fed
Grafton of Government Employees.
According to the federation, the
Government is supposed to set an
example to national industry in
wages and working conditions, but
except for the lower paid clerical
positions in the classified service,
the union declared, salaries are
generally higher for the same type
Of work outside the Government
service.
Two Laws in Way
The A. F. G.. E. pointed out that
about 100000 Federal workers now
have a five-day week, mostly in
the postal service, through the
adoption two years ago of the
Thomas amendment, and that
strong sentiment is developing for
it's extension throughout the Serv-
ice.
Two laws stand in the way of
action for five-day week at pres
ent, it was declared, one being the
Saturday half-holiday law, which
specifically directs four hours Of
work on Saturday, and the law
providing that not less than seven
hours shall constitute days work.
Slight Opposition
The only opposition within it's
ranks to the five-day movement, &C.
cording to the organization, has
come from those who fear the ef-
fects of eight hours eye strain, or
those employees whose outside &C.
Invites, such as school attendance,
might be affected by a longer
working day. Schools in Washing
ton, however, have indicated readi-
ness to conform to any prospec-
tive change in hours" the fedora
ton stated.
Numerous resolutions dealing
with the problem aye expected to
be presented at the annual A. F.
