RIVER BOATMAN GOING
 BELOW BY PLANE

The little yellow and red Mono coupe seaplane that dropped into Juneau's harbor late yesterday af- ternoon, is piloted by man who has made a mark for himself in Alas ka. He is Glenn Day, head of the Day Transportation Company, op- erating a fleet of river boats in the Iditarod.
 Glenn, who is well known in South east Alaska, several years ago work ed in a Ketchikan machine shop, but since 1927 he has been in big business.
 Each spring, before the ice and snow has left the niggerheads and sloughs of the Interior, Day takes his plane from it's hangar and loads is with gasoline and baggage in Se- attle and without hullabaloo or fuss, goes to work for the season, but driving to work in this instance, is a bit out of the ordinary.
 When Day leaves Seattle, there is no open water for his pontoon- equipped Monocoupe-so Day lands in the snow
 When the great Yukon, ice bound and slumbering, suddenly awakens in the light of spring and then more suddenly breaks up and charges in a growing rush to the sea, Glenn Day and his seven river boats are right on the rivers slushy heels.
 Then follows frantic night and day season of frenzied freighting activity to supply host of large and small mines with the necessar- ies of a mining existence.

BILL REvAMPED
Senator Maloney Proposes Jobless
Census Through Existing Gov
ernment Facilities.
BY the Associated Press.


By the Associated Press.
Senator Maloney, Democrat, of Con-
necticut, has revamped his bill to
establish q flexible work week based
on Nationwide unemployment CEN
sus to meet objections to the cost of
Euch survey.
Instead of proposing separate census
machinery, Maloney said yesterday, he
will suggest use of existing Government
facilities or an organization similar to
the one used by the World War Draft
Board.
The Senate Commerce Committee
ordered hearings on Maloneys bill, de-
spite President Roosevelt's comment
he did not believe q census OF the
unemployed necessary.
Maloney said he preferred that the
Federal-State employment Offices con-
duct the census, with the unemployed
required to register every three months.
His bill would authorize q national
commission to proclaim work week
ranging from 80 hours, when 5000, 900
or more are unemployed, to 40 hours
when 10000 or less are out of work.
Goods manufactured in violation of
lhese regulations would be banned in
interstate commerce and the Govern
u1ent would be prohibited from buying
supplies from or loaning money to vio-

A proposal to pay for next years

backed 100 per cent by the Nations
supply Of idle silver and gold, came
today from Representative Dies, Demo-
crat, Of Texas.
Dies said he would offer that plan
as an amendment to the 81, 500, 900 900
relief appropriation bill when it comes
up in the House Thursday.
He contended it would:
Garry the relief load without in
creasing the public debt.
Balance the budget and lessen the
threat Of imitation.
Put to some use the gold and silver
not needed for redemption Of existing
currency.
Put cash dollars instead Of credit
dollars to work.
Anticipating arguments that his
proposition In itself might be called
inflationary, he said 1t would be no
more so than borrowing 81, soc, ,00O, 900
and issuing tax exempt bonds in that
amount. BY the time tho bonds and
accrued interest were paid OIL, he said,
the cost would be $4,000. .o0o. 900.
