TWO INTERNAL
 TAX OFFICIALS
 RESIGN IN RIFT
Had Refused to Parade Tax Avoiders-Evaders Be-
 fore Congress

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-Morri- son Shafroth said today he was forced out of his position as Chief Counsel of the Internal Revenue Bureau because he refuse to join in a recent investigation on tax avoidance and evasion. His res ignation was submitted shortly af- ter that of Russell Ryan.
 ''The choice was that of partici- pating in the presentation of names of alleged tax evaders and avoiders or resigning," he claimed. Shafroth will return to his Denver law practice, he asserted. He and Ryan were unable to convince our selves that it was proper to use the Bureau of Internal Revnue as plan- ned in the tax avoidance and evas- ion investigation.
 The investigation brought a pa- rade of names of high financial theatrical and social worlds before the joint Senate and House Inquiry committee.
 Secretary of the Treasury Mor- leenthau said Shafroth disagreed in general treasury policies. .

 UNC0v FIRED ON
 RERMLE CLAIMS
American Gold Mining Co. on Chichagof Finds
 $75 Ton Ore

Gold ore running better than SIS a ton has been encountered in op- erations of the American G ol d Mining Company properties located on Chichagof Island about two and one-half miles below the Chich- agoff Mining Company property on Klag Bay, accor d ing to news brought to Juneau this week by John Hermle, one of tine owners of the property who has recently re- turned from a week at the opera tions.
 Hermle brought in some new samples which have just been un- covered and which are being as saved at the Territorial Department of Mines, revealing considerable free gold and leading mining men to the belief that perhaps a pay streak of substantial proportions has been struck.
 Mining Engineer Frank Metcalf who made survey of the property this summer, reported that surface indications were particularly fla vorable and that the formations and structures were the same which are found in the Chichagoff and the Hirst- -Chichagof, both of which are in the same area.
 Four Juneau men are interested in the property-Hermle, Joe Thi- bodeau, M E. Monagle and Mike McKallick = and they have been working on it for the last three years with most of their assays thus far being favorable, the highest re- cording 225 ounces to the ton, prior to the assay now being made which is expected to run higher. If the latest samples hold up to ex- pectations, plans already have been drawn for tunnelling and opera tions from a different angle, it was revealed.
 There are Is claims in the N'op- erty and the present operations are only about 1900 feet from the beach on Klag Bay.

SChWanln's Plane Saved by Haida
 After "Voyage''

The Savoia -Marchetti Italian sea- plane, which has a knack for the unusual, last night about 9:30 O. clock took an mustered ride on Gastineau Channel and appeared headed for the Douglas bridge when it was rescued by a launch sent out by the Coast Guard cutter Haida.
 Tony Schwamm, its owner. who several weeks ago flew into thou sands of sea gulls on a trip from Seattle to Petersburg and was formed down for hours, had ar rived in Gastineau Channel early last night and at 8 o'clock moored the large plane to a spot at Doug las.
 Several hours later Gerald (Bud) Bedding, mechanic at Alaska Air Transport, noticed the plane had torn loose from it's moorings and was headed for the bri d g e. Sohwamm his mechanic Jack Null lin, pr. NJ J. Whittier and several others called up the Haida to catch it before it was wrecked on the bridge.
 It was not damaged in the un- scheduled voyage
 Meanwhile, rumors that the AL aska Air Transport had leased or purchased the large ship were dis counted by Chief Pilot Sheldon Sim mons of the AAT organiza ton. "Schwamm merely brought his plane in for repairs at our govern ment-approved shop" he said. q have made no deal with SchWamm. Simmons said flight he took with Schwamm in the Sovoia Mar , chetti plane was to see how she runs"

KINY Informed Double Service
 Area Practical
E Edwin Kraft, Licensee, Found Another An
 tenna Site Here

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-For- mer Senator c. c. Dill told the Communications Commission that KINY in Juneau, Alaska, could double it's service area and eliminate reception difficulties if Edwin Kraft, licensee, were authorized to increase the power charge frequency.
 Dill said signals probably could reach Wrangell and Petersburg The station now operates on an unlimit- ed time of 1910 kilocycles, one hun dred watts. The power commission examiner said that Kraft asked to operate the station at 1430 kilo- cycles to one hundred watts.
 Kraft found another antenna site at Juneau, Dill said, overcoming engineering objection which the eX- aminer cited. He said the proposed site at Douglas was discarded be- cause the expense of installation power lines and foundations were prohibitive.

CALL

Persons crossing the railroad
tracks at grades north and south
at Clayton, should keep a vigilant
lookout for the approach of trains
which under the new rules do not
blow for cross roads, but instead
ring the bell. Last Monday after
noon while A. L. Hudson, Jr., was
leisurely crossing the track at Jim
town Crossing driving a team, a
locomotive came tearing down the
road from Clayton and furiously
ringing her bell. Mr.. Hudson paid
no attention to this until the en-
gineer gave a whistle blast, when
he looked up and saw his danger.
He put whip to his team, and as
the rear wheels left the track the
engine dashed past.

dent Cleveland formally opened the

by the rain. They were of the
opinion the rain ruined the toma-
to crop. Mr.. johnson stressed
chiefly to the farmers wives pres
ent, that the production credit as
sociation lends money not only for
the purchase of farm equipment
and supplies, but also for those
things that make up the farm
home, such as electrical appliances.
Checks Ready in Fall
Mr.. Seltzer said checks for this
years compliance with the conser-
walton program will be ready this
fall. Aerial photographs of the
farms have been taken, he said,
and are being used now to check
the extent to which farms compli-
ed with the program. Mr.. Seltzer
said this years wheat crop in the
United States was about 100000
900 bushels in excess of require
ments. He expressed the belief
that paintings to be harvested
next year will be far in excess of
next years requirements and said
it would be advisable for wheat
growers to reduce their wheat
