 TO FAIRBANKS
Girl Dog Team Driver Re-
 ports Everything Fine on Sled Dash to Interior

Mary Joyce, who left her Twin Glacier Lodge on the Taku River on December 20 on mile journey by dog team to Fairbanks completed the first 100 miles and reached Atlin yesterday, according to a PA radio message received to- day by Bob Ellis, local PA repre- sentative. The message, dated Jan uary 2. follows.
 "Atlin eight short days from Ink lin. Snow-shoed 20 miles yesterday. IS miles today. Having more fun. Leaving Atlin Thursday for White horse Will wire Was on Sloco Summit when plane went over Sat- urday. Will go by way of Burwash, Beans, rice and moose not bad.
 "fSigned) Mary Joyce"
 The plano mentioned by Miss Joyce was the PAA Lockheed Elec~ tra, piloted by Joe Crosson and Murray Stuart on mercy flight from Fairbanks to Juneau and re- turn with scarlet fever serum for the stricken Interior city.
 Miss Joyce left her home at Taku with a five-dog team on December % and arrived at Tulsequah on De- cember 27 A party of Indians with whom she travelled from Tulsequah to Atlin estimated that the trip would require about 20 days because of the bad condition of the trail particularly that portion which lay along the Inklin River because of holes in the river ice-but the jour ney was completed in 12 days, which is considered as remarkably fast time.

WASHINGTON, Jan. B. New Dealers are tacitly appealing from the Supreme Court to the electorate, in the hope that the nation will re- ject the constitutional views of the courts majority and eventually will follow the course upheld by it's minority.
 Administration officials, from the White House down, emphasized that the Justices handed down two de- cisions in the case that wrecked the AAA.
 Already Secretary of Agriculture Henry L. Wallace has appealed to every family to study both decisions.
 A condemnation of the majority opinion continued among Congress Democrats.

DECROOT TRIAL NEARING CLOSE IN COURT HERE
Accused Hits Ex-wife S Story Jury May Get
 Case Tomorrow

With the calling of rebuttal witt nesses late this afternoon, the re trial of Harry DeGroot, charged with the murder of Abe Hansen at Chichagof in 1883, was drawing to a speedy close in the Federal District Court today.
 The case is expected to go to the jury tomorrow afternoon, after clos ing arguments have been given by Defense Counsel H. L. Faulkner and Assistant District Attorney George w. Folta.
 On cross MT Folta vigorously attempted to shake the self-defense story of the defendant when court opened this morning, and to discredit certain parts of his testimony concerning the events sur r- rounding the alleged crime.
 Threa.s Related
 DeGroot claimed he was i'll and terrified by repeated threats assert edly made by Hansen when he tDe : Groot) seized rifle from the focs'e of the gas boat anchored at Hirst- Chichagof, and fired the fatal shot at the deceased, who was standing in the companionway. He said he be- lieved Hansen was about to shoot him with a revolver he was allegedly carrying on the trip.
 The prosecution contended that DeGroot, angry because his wife elected to stay with Hansen rather than return to Juneau with him, shot Hansen as the latter was leaving the boat.
 R. B. cDoc') McIver, owner Of the gas boat which took the defend ant to the island, was recalled to the stand this morning by the defense, and offered brief testimony concern ing the position of the bouy
 Reputation Attacked
 Four character witnesses were called by the defense, three of whom testified that the slain man had a bad reputation" Fred Camper of Aux Bay former night patrolman in Juneau, former U. S. Marshal Albert White and Rex Early. formerly a miner at Chichagof, declared from the witness chair that Hansen was not known as law-abiding man.
 The fourth witness, Steve Early, offered the unexpected reply that Hansen had a good reputation.
 George Jones, former U. s. Deputy Marshal, was recalled to the stand end testified to the finding of re- volver, rifle and sap aboard Han sens gas boat Jones brought the body and the accused man to Juneau after the shooting.
 Reporter Called
 The last defense witness called was John Newman. court reporter, who testified as to certain parts of Mc- Ivers declarations at the first trial of DeGroot in 1883.

COUNCIL WILL
 ASK PWA FUND.
 PUBLIC LIBRARY
Loan of $30,000 to Be Ask ed Subject to Approval
 at April City Election

Application for $3J,000 PWA funds, to be used, subject to popular ap- proval at the time of the April cleo tions, in the construction of a perma- nent library building for the City Of Juneau, was unanimously voted by the City Council in it's brief session yesterday afternoon, at o'clock.
 N. Lester Troast, architect, was appointed to draw up plans for the library, which will be erected on some undesjgnated lot yet to be pur- chased by the city.
 Mayor L Goldstein, in expressing his qualification at the will of the council. pointed out that present es- inmates on the building indicate it will not cost more than 25,000 but that the unused money can be re-. turned if there is no call for it.
 The PWA funds will include 45 percent direct grant by the govern ment, the remaining amount to he granted in 20-year loan, interest at TOUT percent. Thus, even if the en- tire $30000 were used, the maximum burden on the city would be slightly over s16,OO0.
 Must Secure Lot
 The PWA funus do not, Mayor Goldstein said, provide for a lot. The previous suggestion. that a building be erected on the lot adjacent to the City Hall, this building to be heated by the city halls system, was voted down by the council as being im- practical, inasmuch as the city hall itself would in short period of time be declared obsolete.
 In order to save time, application for the PWA funds will go forward to Washington immediately, and the council will make immediate efforts to provide suitable lot for the en- terprise.
 Meanwhile, the library committee -Councilmen Krause, George and MacKinnon-wil cooperate with the committee of the women's club Mrs. Crystal Snow Jenne. Mrs. Pearl Burford, Mrs. Lottie Spickett, and Mrs. Robert Kaufmann-in soliciting
