Care in Redecorating.

When redecorating a room the first
thing to consider is which furnishings
to keep and which to replace or re-
upholster. Determine which colors
will predominate in them before Sc
lecting the colors for your walls and
ceiling. Well-tailored slip covers will
save your furniture and add a note of
freshness to the room. They can also
repeat the chintz of your curtains or
introduce a new color note. Also, an
old faded rug can be dyed a dark

Pontif Declares There Is
No Work to Describe

VATICAN CITY, Jan. 21.-Pope
Plus XII, weakened by bad night
of increasing pain, took another
turn today for the worse.
The Pope is suffering greatest
from pain in his left leg where cir
culation is poor.
The Pontiff is bearing the pain
with extreme fortitude.
Attendants quoted him as saying !;
1.-The pains are an atrocious excla-
nation mark. There is perhaps no
word in the dictionary that can
really describe them"
The Pope remained abed as his
condition does not permit of attend
ants to lift him onto wheeled di-
van.
Former King Alfonso of Spain ar
rived at the Vatican today and eX-
pressed hope for the Pope's ulti-
mate recovery.

UNICAMERAL SENATE
PROPOSED BY SMITH
McCutcheon AS ks Alaska
Exclusion Clause Be Re
moved from Jones Act

Old favorites and new proposals
made their appearance in today's
session of the Territorial House of
Representatives before it adjourned
until p. m tomorrow to allow
members to spend the greater part
of tomorrow going through the AL
aska Juneau mine.
Elimination of fish traps, proposal
for a unicameral legislature and
the request that the Alaska exclus-
ion clause be eliminated from the
Merchant Marine Act, or Jones law,
all appeared again in the shape OF
memorials to Congress.
Representative j. Leonard Smith
of the Second Division introduced
the memorial calling for Legisla-
ture of one house to be known as
the Senate. Under this proposal,
if it won the approval of Congress,
the Territorial Legislature would
consist of a Senate of "a members,
five to be elected from each Divis-
ion in 1888 to serve with the four
holdover Senators who were elected
last fall for four years. Under
the plan all Legislature members
would be elected for four years and
representation would be six from
each Division. The proposal was up
last session but failed to win the
necessary support.
Jones Law Amendment
Representative H. H. McCutcheon
of the Third is the author this time
of a memorial, asking Congress to
eliminate from the Jones Act the
clause excluding Alaska" Because
of this clause Alaska is unable TO
take advantage of the marine act
and have goods shipped to the Ter
ritory from the States via Canadian
rail and water lines.
The elimination of fish traps
both floating and standing, proposal
again made its appearance in the
form of memorial, introduced by
Representative Ed Coffey of the

fishermen are deprived Of living
through the use of traps as it cuts
down the number of men needed

Juneau Figures in Early
Life of Tex Richard; This
Is Revealed IN 2 Letters

PHOENIX, Arizona, Jan. 2l.-TeX
Rickard, who braved Alaska to find
gold and later TO become the daunt-
less premier of the Snowman world,
did not want his Ma" to know he
had gone to the Yukon.
That intimate fact, and numerous
others, is revealed in letters written
forty years ago by Richard in Jul
neau, Alaska, to his boyhood chum
E. S. Matlock, now living here.
The letters were written in an
almost illegible scraWl, and spelling
is poor.
When Richard was 81, he left the
lob as town marshal at Henrietta to
follow the gold rush.

1895, at Juneau, told how Rlckaro
acquired the name of Tex" The

People on the boat kalled me Tex
Everybody in Juneau calls me Tex
That naim will stay with me as long
as I stay here"
Name Does Stick
The name stuck through life.
Matlock recalled that Dink was
the nickname for Tex in Henrietta
In the next letter Matlock re-
ceived, dated February %, 1895,
Rickard said:
Il am going to leave Juneau
aboaut April Is. I am going to the
Yukon. Don't tell ma. l told her i
would not go.
well I suppose you boys will soon
commence to play ball. Don't let

MOST REVEREND
N. ]. GALLAGHER
DIES IN Detroit
Bishop Of Diocese, Superior
to Radio Priest Cough
lin, Passes Away

DETROIT, Michigan, Jan. 81. -
The Most Rev. Michael j. Gala
CHER, Bishop of the Catholic Diocese
of Detroit, died in a hospital here
last night at the age of 10. Death
was the result of throat trouble
from which he had been i'll for ten
days. He was the immediate super
ior of the Rev. Charles E. Coughlln,
whose activities over the radio and
as head of the National Union for
Social Justice, he frequently de-
Tended. The Bishop however, an
nounced early last fall he favored
the reelection of Roosevelt whom
the Rev. Coughlin earlier attacked
bitterly in several addresses.
"The Building Bishop
The Most. Rev. Gallagher, by d.
recting remarkable expansion OF
church activities in his Detroit do
cese, earned the sobriquet OF the
building Bishop"
Elevated to the bishopric at Grand
Rapids, Mich, in 1916, he was IN
stalled as Bishop of Detroit Oct.
90, 1918. Under his administration
there were established in the do
cese more than. 100 new parishes
and schools and a score of religious
communities.
Bishop Gallagher was known as
one of the twin bishops" The 9TH
ers was Bishop Joseph Schrembs, OF
Cleveland. The two were intimates
for years, having risen together In
the Grand Rapids diocese.
OF greater general interest than
his church record and his friend
ships with Bishop Schrembe, how
ever, was Bishop Gallagher's sup
port of the Rev. Charles E. Cough
lin, whose tempestuous career as
radio orator and political publicist
stemmed from a tiny parish IN
Bishop Gallagher's diocese. Time al
ter time, when Father Coughlins
widely-heard utterances on econo-
mics or politics drew fire from
critics within and without the Cath
Ollie Church, Bishop Gallagher went
to his defense.
Il can stand steadfastly behind
this priest" he said, speaking into
Father Coughlin's microphone to
the Royal Oak priests radio au-
dience in 1895. "He speaks ON behalf
of the millions who are denied

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Jan. 2l.--
]. A. Talbot, Mayor of Ketchikan,
Alaska, declared in an interview
here, that the industrial paralysis
that has been precipitated by the
West Coast Maritime strike. has
throttled Alaska and that unless
steps are taken, a large
number of the Territory's 10000
inhabitants will be destitute.
THE people Of Alaska are not
starving to death at the present
time, but they can see nothing In
the future to bring them any hope.
Nine tenths of the Alaska cities are
working people and until the strike
began, they faced a bright industrial
year." said Mayor Talbot.
Strike Is Crime
1.-THE Alaskans do not know what
the strike is about. They are not
greatly interested in the statements
of either labor or capital, but they
feel that it is crime that both
sides will not arbitrate and settle
their differences.
Thousands OF kilograms and let
tiers have been sent to the President
demanding, in the name Of civiliza-
tior., arbitration be forced upon
ship owners and ship workers.
"As result Of this stupid shilly
shallying, mines must soon be clos
