Japanese Held
 After Breaking
 Governors Door
Man Held for Insanity Ob- servation After Crashing
 Glass in Federal Bldg.

A Japanese, Ishami Yagi, is being held in the Federal jail for observa- ton for insanity following the smashing of the glass in the door leading to the Governors office shortly after noon today.
 Yagi told arresting officers when he was arrested a few minutes after the incident that he had gone to the Governors office during the noon hour to obtain some of the seven billion dollars" he said the government "owes me" When he found the door locked. he said he picked up the floor mat and smash ed the window With the crash of glass he departed hastily. A short time later Deputy Marshal William Markle arrested him on lower Frank lin Street.
 Yagi recently came to Juneau from Excursion Inlet and prior to that reports had reached the Mar shals office that he was acting strangely at Lazy Cove near Soap stone Point.
 The Japanese was without funds, officers said and probably had gone to the Governors office to seek re- lief, they believe.

AIR COMMERCE BILLS EFFECT
 ALASKA FLYING
Dimond Explains Pilot Pay Provisions in Measures
 Asks for Views

The Lea bill in the House and the McCarran measure in the Senate are designed for complete regula- tion of air commerce and will apply in all States and Territories Transportation within Territories is called interstate, according to ad- vices to The Empire from Delegate Anthony J. Dimond
 The McCarran bill provides that it shall be condition upon hold ing certificates to engage in inter- state air transportation that rates compensation, maximum hours and other working conditions and rela- tionS of airplane pilots holding cer- tificates shall conform to decision No. 83 made by the National Labor Relations Board on May 10. 1884 and the same provision applies to overseas air transportation such as between the State and Alaska" the Delegate siad.
 Decision No 83 provides for pay ment to pilots on graduated scale dependent to some extent upon the hours of flying per month, the length of service and whether flying is by day or night; that 85 hours of flying shall constitute a monthly maximum for air pilots: that rate of base pay shall be S1, 500 per year with an increase of $200 for each years service up to a maximum of $3000; that pilots shall be paid the base rate plus a graduated hourly rate of four to five dollars for a days flying and six to seven and a half dollars for night flying, de- pending upon the speed of the ship; that in addition, pilots shall be paid rates varying between one and two cents per mile for monthly mill cages, dependent again upon the distances flown and the speed of ships.
 Experience in the States has shown that pilots will average about $650 per month and that sometimes a pilots monthly pay will exceed s1,O00 I am advised that ex- perience indicates an Alaska aver age pay for pilots of about S450 per month.
 If any operator or pilot believes Decision No. 83 is unavoidable in Alaska, views should be wired to Senator McCarran or Representa- tive Lea, or both. While the Lea bill does not yet contain the pilots wages provision. Decision No. 83, it is understood the same will be offered in hearings on the bill be- fore the committee"

FRESH WATER ON WATERFRONT BEFORE c. OF C..
Chamber Is to Look Into Problem of Providing Bet
 ter Service, Small Boats

The problem of supplying fresh water to small boats along the wat erfront came before the Juneau Chamber of Commerce at it's lun- cheon meeting this noon at Percy's Cafe when 1t was stated by Pastor H. L. Wood that it was difficult for the small boats to get water. About the only place water can be obtained is at the Union Oil dock, he said. There is water at the Cold Storage plant. he explained, but due to the fishing boats serviced there it is an inconvenience to all concerned to obtain water there.
 Tom Dyer of the Standard Oil explained that due to the 1,500 feet which it has to pipe it's water, it becomes necessary to shut off the water during the cold weather as it freezes up He said, however, that except for the cold weather period fresh water can be obtained at the Standard Oil dock.
 President Charles w Carter ap- pointed John w. Jones of Civic Im- provements committee and Trevor Davis committee to look into the matter.
 Failure of the North Sea to arrive this forenoon deprived the Chamber of an anticipated feature-tne ap- pearance of the University of Wash ington Glee Club which had been scheduled to entertain the business men at today's luncheon.

TOKYO, March 24.-A Japanese Navy spokesman said he believed the United States Navy's Expansion Bill shows that the United States is considering naval operations against Japan.
 Speaking at a press conference, the spokesman said: My view is that if Americans are not thinking of over seas operations they do not need a fleet of that size; or do be- lieve the object of American opera tions could be other than Japan
 Reports that the Navy war games would extend to the borders of Jap anese mandated islands in the Paci- fic drew from a Japanese naval representative the remark
 Tt is unbelievable Americans would come so near"
 Foreign Minister Koki Hirota in briefly touching upon the Alaskan salmon problem, characterized as ridiculous the assertions that many Japanese fishing boats were really disguised warships.
 Hirota said Japan and the United States are still negotiating and that he expected an amicable set clement of the Bristol Bay and Ber- ing Sea controversy. He further in- timated that Japanese fishing boats will not travel to Alaskan waters this year

By J. J. ECKLES Secretary to Delegate Dimond

WASHINGTON, March 7.-tSpec- ial Correspondence) = The Interior Department appropriation bill for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1889, carrying considerable sums for expenditure in Alaska. passed the House on March ?, and will soon be considered by the Committee on Appropriations of the Senate. With respect to Alaska, the Budget rec concentrations were follow throughout, except as to the item for carrying out the so-called Rein deer Act of 1887.
 The amount carried in the bill and the amounts appropriated for similar purposes last year are given below in parallel columns:
 Last Year This Year Education and re-
 lief of natives of

 natives of Alaska 370,000 408,O00 Reindeer service .. 35,50O 35,500 Reindeer industry 50,000 United States Geo.

 From the foregoing it will be observed that some progress was made in obtaining increases in the items of education and relief of the natives of Alaska, as the bill under consideration carries S100,00O more for those purposes than the bill approved last year, and last years bill carried an increase over the corresponding amount in the bill of the year before. An increase of S38,000 was also granted in the appropriation for medical relief Of natives of Alaska. One new hospital is provided for in this bill at an estimated cost of $145000, to be built at Kanakanak. The remain ing $15,0O0 of the item is to provide for dispensary at Tetlin to cost s7,500, and dispensary at Hyda- burg to cost the same amount. It is now hoped and expected that funds will be provided for at least one new hospital for the natives of Alaska each year until the hospital requirements are entirely taken care of. Last years bill carried funds for the construction of hospital at Bethel, as well as funds for rebuilding the hospital at Bar row which had been destroyed by fire. For construction of native schools, the current bill carries

Army and Nauy War College Studying Latest Moves for
 Defense; Secrets of Nations
This is the second of two articles explaining the Army War College and what it does.
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, March 24 - AL ready the bright minds" in the Army and Navy are studying the Spanish civil war, the Japan China incident and the Ethiopian campaign in preparation for the next war-when and if it comes.
 The studies are going quietly on in the Army and Navy War Col leges where chosen officers of the two branches of national defense prepare for advancement to the higher grades.
 Their job is to study the latest methods of war-and they leave virtually nothing out that may have bearing. Here is apart of the mission of the Army War College in Washington, which will help to explain the purpose also of the Navy college:
 ITO train officers for the con- duct of field operations of the Army and higher eschelons; and to in- struct in those political, economic and social matters which influence the conduct of war.

 modern equipment.
 SEATTLE, March 24.-Louis Mos tad, business agent of the Alaska Fishermen's Union, said today that he is convinced the salmon canner- ies will operate as usual this sea- son despite the packers announce ment that they would close down if employees do not accept wage re- duction.
 T have been here "A years and it is the same story every spring" Mos tad said. The packers say they can't afford to operate. This creates an increased demand for what is left of the previous years pack. When stocks are moved they will begin packing again no matter what the men are demanding. I don't be- lieve the industry is justified in closing down for the season and I don't believe it will think the men are not entitled to even more than they are asking
 An industry spokesman said there was no possibility of any canning operations this season unless agree ment is reached
 When we granted increases last year we were told We could make up the difference by simply advan- cling prices he said. We did this but we found salmon a competitive item. There was no activity for months in the 1887 pack and it did not start to move until prices had been reduced to below production costs Obviously, we can't keep on spending more than we take in"
 The spokesman said it was too early to predict whether the con- troversy is likely to affect Puget Sound operations.
 Glenn Kinney, business represen- tative of the Machinists' local 79 which is involved in the dispute along with the fishermen's union, carpenters and Gannery workers locals, assailed the canners con- tention that wages must be cut if the industry is to operate.
 Many large employers of labor have made such statements in the past when attempting to cut wages and where organized labor defeated their efforts the industry went right on operating just the same" he said. The President stated there should not be any wage cuts and we intend to take none. Wage cuts will not increase the canned salmon sale but it will further curtail the market for all commodities. This move by the operators can be interpreted as an attempt to break the unions and raise the price of salmon. The un- ions involved in this controversy stand solidly together and will take no reduction. We are not responsible for throwing men out of work. The blame for that must be placed on those who seek to cut wages by a lockout"
