One reason for the price boost, market experts explain, is the relative scarcity of turkeys this year. Last year 20,000,000 turkeys were available for Thanksgiving dinners. This year the number will approximate 100000.
 Turkeys this year, however, are fatter than a year ago because of increased supplies of grain feed available at lower prices. Market experts said the price of turkeys may be about the same as year ago by Christmas.
 The supply of "trimmin's" is the largest in many years and the price will be about the same as a little lower than last year, &C., cording to reports to marketing officials of the department.
 Potatoes at 2 cents pound are third cheaper than last year. Fruits are more plentiful and cheaper and so are most vege- tables. Celery costs 10 to 12 cents a bunch and pumpkin 3 cents a pound in bulk.
 Oysters range from 30 to 40 cents pint and average about 35 cents. Cranberries cost 16 cents a pound, and mincemeat about 25 cents pound. Assorted nuts

The Thanksgiving dinner tablt may be loaded with luscious fooc at a cost little greater than @ veal ago. For a family of five the cost will range from A to $8 for feast fit for a king.
 Home economic experts of the department of agriculture pre- pared this sample menu for the United Press:
 Fruit cup
 Roast Turkey or Roast Chicken
 Giblet Gravy
 Mashed potatoes or candied
 sweet potatoes
 Brussels sprouts or another Green vegetable
 Cranberry sauce
 Celery and olives
 Pumpkin pie
 Coffee
 Virtually all of the increased cost over year ago will be for turkey, for those who prefer that bird. Tur- key prices recently have averaged about 30 cents 8 pound. This is cents a pound above last year. Roast chicken may be bought at but little more than half the cost of turkey and roast duck at about 25 cents. An eight-pound turkey this year will cost $40, compared with g last year for the average family.

WIFE BATTLES FOR HER MAN'
Waits at School Gate for Husbands Girl Friend;
 Case Continued

Substantiation was given to the axiom that woman will fight for her man when Mrs. Nellie Clapp, 9, colored of 25O Chery street attacked a young girl as the latter left her studies at a local high school yes- terday.
 Mrs. Clapp claimed in city court today that her husband had been going out with the girl, and spend- ing money on her when he could not afford to support their own child. She said that she called at her home a few nights ago to ask the girl to stay away from her hus- band but that she had refused to speak with her.
 T only wanted to talk to her when I met her at the school" she said, "but she got fresh and pulled my earring"
 The accused girl denied having ever been out with MT. Clapp. Evi- dently MT. Clapp (who did not ap- pear in court) is a short man, for his wife told Judge Mascolo that the girl had told her, T don't like short men. but I don't mind spend- ing their money"
 Judge Mascolo continued the case for one month.

| cluding Smith, were taken to the police station and booked on charges of disturbing the peace. Several others were removed from the vi- cinity of the plant and released
 Why Strike Was Called
 Union leaders said the strike was called because the company had re- fused to consider complaints of the unions grievance committee and had refused to rehire union officers who were discharged last month. The union has filed a complaint with the national labor board. This was the third U. A. w. strike against Ford. The others were in Kansas City, Mo-, and Oakland. Cal.
 M. N. Johnson, manager of the plant, said 580 men were in the fac- tory shortly after a. m. He said that number is normal for this time of year." There are approxi- mately 900 men on the payroll, but because of seasonal requirements all do not work at the same time.
 This is no strike" Johnson said. Maybe it's an invasion, but it's no strike" He said the assembly line started moving at 7:05 a. m., on schedule. A United Press reporter saw the line in operation shortly after o'clock, with finished cars leaving 1t.
 Garst Called Strike
 Delmond Garst, regional director of the United Automobile Workers, said that 6C0 of the 300 employees answered the strike call.
 When the pickets were gathering, Garst told them that We don't want trouble, but we may run into 1t. After all, there's nothing like a good fight"
 Garst, youthful Southerner, call- ed the strike. Authority was voted to him some time ago by the local union and by the international exe- cutive board of the U. A. w.
 The picket line started forming at midnight, after a mass meeting at which Garst announced the strike and set the zero hour" for a. m.
 One by one, few workmen slip- ped through the picket line and joined others who had remained in the plant through the night.
 Then Came Rush
 Then before 2 o'clock came the rush of automobiles through the picket line and into the factory. Men unloaded. Some of the auto mobiles left the plant and returned again with more men. Altogether about 250 cars entered the gates.
 Thirty policemen were on duty at the picket line. Despite the clashes the only known injury requiring treatment was that suffered by policeman, who sprained his leg while preventing the overturning of all automobile.
 By a. m. the picket line dwin- dled from more than 1000 men to about 50.
 The plant manager, Johnson, said that most of the remaining pickets were not Ford workers but Sympa- thiberS from other unions. A union spokesman for Garst con- tradicted Johnson's statement that the plant was operating as usual. He sad that about l25 employees had entered the plant but that most of them were office workers and clerks.
 "A few production workers enter cd, but we didn't recognize any of them," he said. "It looks like they were imported for the purpose of running the plant despite the strike. We know they weren't Sormer employees"

 Radical Nazi Creed
 The official endorsement by Kerrl of Bishop Mueller's and Streicher's doctrines was said to show that the radical Nazi creed henceforth alone will be recognized as positive Chris tionity" and ministers still uphold 4nE different interpretations of the gospel will be looked upon as mis- using the church for political ends.
 The Evangelical church has had no autonomous administration since last February when the head of the Reich church committee, Will helm Zoellner, resigned because he could not cooperate with Kerrrs views and support of the German Christian movement.
 Church Members Prosecuted
 In his Tulda speech Kerrl an- solsnced that since 1883 at least T. 900 accused members of churches have been prosecuted for "offenses against the state." Under Kerrl's ad- ministration more than 100 confess sional preachers have been im- prisoned and collection of money by the confessionals was forbidden.
 Kerrl reiterated the governments declaration that religion must not be used for political aims but de- nied that the Nazi party or state was planning any religious reforma- ton or establishment of national socialist state church.
 Christ never preached that his followers should fight against the national socialist race theory" Kerrl declared. "On the contrary he con- ducted an unheard of struggle against Jewry which cruicified him for that reason.
 No Contradiction
 There is not the slightest con- tEadiction between the doctrine of Christ and national socialism"
 He denied that the government was preparing new church laws add ing that i've only want to fulfill the task set for us by God"
 He concluded with the statement that the German nations will not allow its march into the future to be halted by political maneuvers of congressional circles"

strikers jumped aside to avoid being run down, and the car entered the plant. A few seconds later came al1- other car, then another. They were going so fast 1t was impossible to ascertain anything more than that they were fully loaded. Soon the pickets recovered from their surprise and the next cars were showered with stones.
 Among those arrested was Nor man Smith, 38, a o. l. o. organizer assigned to the automobile workers, who was beaten recently in Mem phis in connection with his efforts to organize Ford workers there.
 While the cars were smashing the picket lines a number of non strikers attempted to enter on foot Fist fights broke out up and down the line, but they were halted speed- fly by police and one of the fighters was arrested.
 All unions affiliated with the C. I. O. in St. Louis pledged their sup- port. The nature of this support was not stated, but 1t will include assistance in picketing the Ford plant.
 The strike was ordered by Del mond Garst, regional director of the United Automobile Workers, on the basis of authority voted by the union some time ago.
 Garst said the strike was ordered because the Ford company had re- fused to consider the complaints ot the unions grievance committee and had declined to rehire members of the shop committee and the off, cers of Ford local No. 25, who were discharged last month.
 At the time the men were dis charged. the local filed a complaint with the National Labor Relations board alleging that the company had been guilty of unfair labor practices

 The strike, which ended Monday was termed by the board an "out- law" demonstration in violation of the unions contract with the motor corporation.

FOUR HUNTERS BACK
In TOWN AFTER TWO
WEEK TRs? ON NORA

The four musketeers of Juneau's
hunting and fishing circles - four,
because Joe Johnson had to stay
home, were back at work today after
two weeks of leisurely hunting and
fishing.
The four, Simpson MacKinnon,
DR.. G. F. Freeburger, Minard Mills
and Earl Hunter, went out for what
has become an annual hunt, on the
Nora.
During their outing the four got
as far away as Sitka, hunted in
numerous bays and hills for ducks
and geese and fished for trout in
Lake Eva and Warm Springs Bay.
They reported fair hunting, with
more ducks and geese seen in Ham
ilton Bay than anywhere else along
the route. After the two fishing for
avs, the four canned considerable
trout
Trout are the best thing in the
world for Dutch lunches!" said
Mac-Kinnon today.
