DEER FEEDING
 TO CONTINUE

Continued snow over Southeast Alaska, now reaching to depths of four and five feet in the hills, and lightly crusted over. has resulted in the hardest winter on wild deer in several years, it was stated to- day by Executive Officer Frank Du- fresne, of the Alaska Game Con- mission.
 MT. Dufresne declared that deer have been forced to the beaches in all sections and that feeding must be kept up continuously. Three of the commissions boats, the Seal, Marten, and Grizzly Bear are now working on the feeding problem.
 The Seal, under Warden Douglas Gray is working in the Icy Straits district; the Marten around Wran- gell Narrows under Warden H. R. Sarber, and the Grizzly Bear out of Ketchikan under Warden w. R. Selfridge. The Forest Service has co-operated with the game commis- sion in assigning eco men to the boats in the Ketchikan and Peters bur districts to help with the feed ing
 It is the first time that feeding has been necessary around Ketchi- kan in Is years, MT. Dufresne de- clared. He further stated that the condition can only be relieved by a heavy rain storm.

0RMER N \ Y ' OFFICER ASKS TO CHANCE PLEA
Farnsworth, Charged with Conspiracy with Japan
 csc, Says Not Guilty

WASHINGTON, Feb. IS. = John Farnsworth, former naval officer, who was charged with conspiring to communicate naval secrets to the Japanese government, asked permission of the Federal District Court to change his plea of nolo contendere entered Monday to mot guilty"
 He said his previous plea was made under enormous pressure and the flip of coin.
 A plea of nolo contendere made by the defendant, though not an admission of guilt, has the same legal effect as regards proceedings on the indictment. Such plea does not debar the defendant from denying the truth of the charges in any other proceedings arising out of the same matter.
 It will be within the discretion of Justic James Proctor to whom the petition is addressed to grant or deny Farnsworth's petition to change his plea.
 The former naval officer, unshav- en and nervous from lack of sleep, paced his cell in the city jail hos pital and told newspaper men of his intention to have the charges against him brought to trial
 I've got to go through with this thing and fight it out in the courts Farnsworth said. I've been told that if I threw myself on the mercy of the court might get light sen- tence, but conviction for treason is nothing to laugh off
 When this thing comes to trial there will be a lot of things aired in Court that will hurt some peo- ple's feelings" he added

Streets for Hire

wv HETHER disguised as a revenue producing
w measure or as solution of the parking prob
lem the proposal to set up parking meters on the pub
lie streets and rent out public property to those able
to pay has nothing to commend it to the residents of
this city.
Once again this suggestion is receiving considera-
ton in Congress in form which would permit the
District Commissioners to establish the system in their
discretion.
1T IS A SAD COMMENTARY ON OUR FORM
OF GOVERNMENT THAT CONGRESS- TO WHICH
WAsH1NGToNIANs APPEAL IN VAIN FOR DE-
SIRABLE REFORMS, SHOULD DEVOTE ATTEN-
TON GLADLY TO THIS ABSURD PROPOSAL.
It is not surprising that there should be some won
derment as to the power which is able to command
favorable consideration when there is scarcely any local
support of the parking meters
According to some, parking meters would raise as
much as half million dollars year-an important
item in view of the Districts financial situation.
But this money would directly from the pockets
of those who already carrying their full share Of
the citys fiscal burden and who will carry even
greater share the currently considered tax program
is adopted
Many of our citizens might we'll be deprived of their
right to the streets equally with other citizens be-
cause they could not afford to pay the fee demanded
situation would be created similar to that which
would exist if the Fire Department were placed on
for hire basis and only those able to pay fee were
allowed to use it to stop fires.
It doesn't the question to argue that the pro-
posa in its present form would leave the final decision
to the District Commissioners.
That merely indicates that Congress wants the meters
installed but is afraid to order them in place.
Very likely the power that could induce Congress to
"permit' the installation could induce the Commits
sioners to order it.
