SAM SHABALDAK. IS OPENING NEW
 CLEANING PLANT.
Inplex Dry Cleaners to Commence, Service
 During Week

Equipment is now being installed 1 fer new dry-cleaning business in
 this city, to be operated by Sam ] Shabaldak, sam the Tailor" in connection with his tailoring estab- 1 lishment on First Street.
 Triplex Dry Cleaning is to be , the name of MT. Shabaldak's new business which is expected to be in ! operation by this mid-week, as soon as installation of equipment is completed. Delivery service is to Ee be maintained and for that purpose a new Ford V-8 delivery truck is ready for action
 In preparing to enter the clean ing business, MT. Shabaldak was careful to select only the most ad- vanced of modern cleaning equip ment As a result his new plant will be outfitted with Triplex machin- cry. A feature of the Triplex washer and extractor unit is the continuous flow of filtered solvent onto the ar ticles being cleaned-avoiding all possibility of dirty solvents coming in contact with clothing.
 The plant also includes a new high pressure steam boiler, presser a Triplex purification tank unit and a Triplex automatic electric drying cambinet The latter has been de- veloped to drive off all cleaning fumes from clothing.
 An experienced cleaning man is due to arrive in Juneau this week on the steamer Alaska. He will take charge Of the cleaning plant and offer complete service, including rugs and upholstery and draperies, while MT Shabaldak will continue to direct his tailoring service An announcement of the opening for business of the new plant will be made in the Empire within. the next few days.

SKI CL.UbBERS CLEAR COURSE
 FOR EXERCISE:

Eighteen skiers turned out on the Douglas Ski Trail Sunday to put in a days work on the end of brush hook and axes. With such q vim did the mountain sliders go ta it that before lunch time the down hill course had been nearly con- pletely brushed out from where the CCC crew had carried it to the wide open spaces at the top of the moun- tain
 After filling up on the sandwiches and coffee furnished by the Top Notch Cafe and toted up the trail by Harold Mckinley, Bud Whiteside and Jay Williams, the crew turned their efforts to clearing the site of the proposed slalom course for the remainder of the afternoon.
 Club President Joe Werner di- rected the operations and was aided by Mack Mori, Bill Hixon, Joe Ka- mazawi. John Tandoo, Jay Williams. Bud Whiteside. Harold Mckinley. Barney Linn, Bob Hlmtooh, Elmer Benedict, Chuck Notar, Bill Clark, Frank Pauls, Gil Prucha, Bob Kim ball and Dallas Weyand
 So satisfactory was the turnout of members and the work accom- plished that plans are being laid for future work details on other week. ends.

Always An Exception

DoLITEsT and promptest in their seats are
our critics, who naively enough seem to
believe the announcements Of the management
that the curtain will rise promptly at $3.50 or
8:40, which it never does except on the rarest
of occasions usually on the one night when you
yourself, contrary to your habitual promptness,
arrive few minutes late. It is on Just this one
night that the management righteously and
vigorously raises the curtain on the precise second
announced, and you are forced to stand in back
until the long, tedious first scene is completed.
The reason for that is the management has
previously announced no one will be seated
during the first scene-and it keeps its word.
TNHE critics are not too troublesome. It is true
l. that George Jean Nathan rarely reappears
for the second act-unless it is mighty enthrall-
ing show to his way of thinking which may not
be yours. Mr.. John Mason Brown is usually
the first to scurry out during intermission
followed by his very pretty wife, but 1t is Mr..
Brooks Atkinson who ordinarily starts the
exodus of the aisleseaters just before the final
curtain Mr. Richard Watts jr., will be close
second. This is because the gentlemen who
review for the morning editions have deadline
to meet-and not to be msconStrued as form
of adverse criticism of the play.

Army Budget Increase

TWO ARMY FAULTS are

men. One was hinted by the
President. He complained about
insufficiency of plans for mass
production of our latest scien-
tific war implements.
Wars will henceforth be
fought with equipment rather
than soldiers. Instruments will
be more important than masses
Of men. His advisers found that

tical steps in the last crisis.
They learned that what Britain
and France needed Gas well as
the U. s. were the instruments
our secret bombing sights,
our Swifter plane patents, our
machine guns, our anti-aircraft
weapons. All needed these in
quantities and right away. The
war might have been over be-
fore fresh troops could have
been trained and dispatched
overseas. Certainly London and
Paris could have been destroyed.

More Anti-Aircraft Guns

CECOND WORRY (not men.
~ tionedl was the deficiency
in anti.aircraft guns. Congress
has been going on the assump-
ton that our shores are rela-
lively safe from air attack, and
so they are. No bomber yet de-
vised could cross the seas with a
full load of bombs and return,
although a suicide attack with
out a return is possible. So is
a closer-based or battleship-
launched plane attack.
New York and San Francisco
authorities have been COM
planning they are practically de-
fenseless-and this is true too.
Army now is constructing a
little more than 800 new anti
aircraft guns secretly in Gov
ernment arsenals, but this Is OBJ
viously not enough for the entire
coastline. Production was held
back for months to make latest
improvements, but, when fin
ished, these guns will be better
than any.
They will shoot accurately at
10000 feet, and when bombers
start shedding higher than this,
they may hit Ohio while aiming
for New York.
Increased appropriations to
remedy this defect also will be

Navy Building Fast

DUMORS have been straying
~ into print suggesting the
Navy building program is an in
side mess. UnSubstantial basis
in the Navy is far behind on
destroyers and has found too
much vibration in one of the
new aircraft carriers on two or
three trial runs.
Trouble was the Navy and the
Shipyards we're not adequately
prepared for such a building pro-
gram as the Government laid
down. They are now. From jan
uary to october, these following
new ships we're set upon the
waves: Six light cruisers, six
destroyers, six subs, one aircraft
carrier.
Coming along are six battle
ships (two under conStruction) i,
two aircraft carriers building,
one heavy cruiser building, six
light cruisers building, two more
in blueprints; 16 subs building,
two more in blueprints; 80
destroyers building, 16 more
coming later.
What has not been rumored
is the fact that we are six
months ahead of the program on
subj marines. While labor
trouble in three private ship
yards caused some concern for
a time, no appreciable effect on
program completion was notice
able.

There's Little Difference

RUT our first-nighterS in their jewels and furs
and dinner coats or tails, do make quite a
show of it as their shiny gas buggies purr up in
front of the doors and empty out their charges
with both chauffeur and doorman bowing in
humble tribute. And, while others of our first
nighterS without a car or cab fare may not
resort to the trolley car or the bus, yet many of
them do crowd into the faster subways. so
allowing for the changes that the passing years
always bring, there is little difference between
the first-nighter of Rupert Hughes 1904 and our
own firstnighter of 1898.
