Writer Is In Jail

Frank Sessions, recent arriv al from the Kougarok section, was arrested yesterday by the federal authorities on a charge of larceny: passing worthless checks. Complainant was Mayor Alvin Polet who cashed a $l0 check written by Sessions, some time ago.
 Sessions pleaded not guilty yes terday and time for hearing was set for 3 pm. today, before U. s. Commissioner C. C. Tanner.
 This is not the first time Ses- sion ha sbeen involved in the passing of worthless checks, it was discovered upon inveStiga- ton. He also served three mon- ths in the federal jail here this spring on a like charge, at that time having passed such pieces of rubber at Cavey's Liquor store, The Nevada, and the Board of Trade.
 The hearing was postponed to- day, due to the fact that the de- fense did not have sufficient time in which to prepare a case.

DELEGATE CHATS TO HOME FOLKS ON WASHINGTON
Dimond Outlines Standing of Major Projects in
 Radio Talk Here

Defense of Alaska means defense of the United States, the whole nation, Delegate Anthony J. Di- mond declared in a radio talk over station KINY last night, in which he outlined the standing of some of the Alaska projects. In pushing for naval and military bases in the north, he emphasized, it is not for just Alaska but is part of general program for defense of the Pacific, which cannot be adequate unless protection is given to the vast coast line of the Territory.
 The Delegate pointed out that $400 ,000,0 900 has been spent in build ing up the defense of the Hawaiian Island. "If this is justified, and l believe that it is, the nexpenditure of military and naval preparedness in Alaska can be justified, he said.
 Authorization has been given for an Army air base in the north, he said, and progress was made on his bill for naval base, probably in the Aleutians.
 "The naval base has only been delayed he stated. T believe that it will be authorized when Congress next convenes. Our best authorities are agreed that it is necessary, and should be built to assure adequate defenses on the Pacific"
 Speaking briefly on the Japanese invasion, the Delegate said that the present agreement which had been entered into by the State Depart ment and the Japanese government was working out so far, but there was no telling just how long it would be effective, therefore, he was still pressing for passage of his

TAX COLLECTOR GREEN MAKES BIG ROUNDUP
Attorney General Leaves First of Week to
 Prosecute Cases

Between twenty and thirty men held to be alien fishermen have been checked in the Bristol Bay region and test case of the Territorial law against alien fishermen will be made at once, it was revealed to- day.
 Attorney General James s. Truitt is planning to leave for the Vest ward Tuesday aboard the Colum- bia to take charge of the prosecu- tion, flying into Bristol Bay from Anchorage.
 Tax Collector Joe Green of the Treasurer's office, who is in the Bristol Bay region, is reported to have taken up the licenses of the alleged aliens who were said to be actively fishing. The season closes there on July g.
 Qnotes Law
 The Attorney General said that the law passed by the 1893 Legis- lature is clear on the point. It reads in part:
 Tt shall be unlawful for any per- son to engage in fishing in Alaska who is not a citizen of the United States, or who has not declared his intention to become such, and all persons qualified to engage in fish, ing, shall first obtain a license so to do under the provisions of this article.
 Any one violating the provisions of this section shall be deemed guil- ty of misdemeanor, and, upon con- viction shall be punished by a fine of not less than fifty dollars nor more than $200 or by imprisonment for not more than thirty days, or by both such fine and imprison- ment."
 Another section of the act, under which it is proposed to prosecute, fixes a penalty for giving false in- formation in getting licenses. This section in part reads:
 False Statements

The application shall also state whether the applicant is na- tive born or natrlralized citizen, and if foreign born whether or not he has declared his intention to become a citizen of the United States.

SHANGHAI, July 9-The Japan csc are rushing 10000 fresh troops to the Yangtze River sector for a new drive on Hankow and Japan has again warned the United States and Great Britain, as well as other Powers, urging removal of all for eign vessels and citizens from the danger zone.
 The Japanese note stressed de sirability for voluntary evacuation, especially in the 80-mile stretch above Kiukian, 135 m les down. stream from Hankow.
 The Japanese note is similar to the one of June II which was re- jected by all Powers.
 The Chinese, meanwhile, claimed a victory in several counter attacks against the Japanese along the Yangtze, including notable tri- umph at Huan Muatung, where ten armed Japanese launches were sunk or seized.
 The Chinese also claim their air men have destroyed a large number of Japanese planes at the Nanking airdrome.
 The Japanese admit that the gar- risons at Linfen, Kuwo, Yuchen and Wensi, along the Shansi Rail- way have been isolated for four weks by reorganized Chinese forces making it necessary to drop sup plies from planes. The Japanese claim, however, that the new of fensive in Shansi Province is ex- pected to relieve the besieged troops.
