 Some of these groups are organ ized for the sole purpose of spread ing peace talk. Some, like the As Sociation of University Women. simply have peace programs.
 Most of them are beginning tc show significant change of tech nique. They are turning from jus taltipp to direct political action
 Their most tantalizing problem right now is to make the intangible concept of peace dramatic.

 Bruce Barton, the advertising man who is a new member of Con gross, found one answer.
 Let's advertise the horrors oi war" he said.
 So he wrote the page ads tha nave been appearing this year un- der the name of World Peace vays' and Estelle Sternberger oi 1ew York undertook to get free pace for them. Peaceways noA as branches in 10 foreign coun- ries
 Peace caravans" were another answer. They were organized by he Womens International League for Peace and Freedom. This group has comparatively small budget. put it drew attention through the efforts of it's dramatic leader, the }oung Dorothy Detzer, wh S e campaigning zeal was whetted ir postwar Europe where she worked for the Quakers.
 The very practical National  Council for the Prevention of War, headed by Frederick Libby works trough heady-made groups sucn IS labor unions, farmers clubs and student councils. The councils staff includes Jeanette Rankin, the former Congresswoman, whose No vote the night Congress put us into he World war was dramatic eli max in the roll call
 Together these peace societies have loosed a flood of literatul on the country. Just to name few: Peaceways sends out half million pieces of literature year, the League for Peace and Democracy 100000; and the Council for Pre- vention of War, 1,300000.

SELDOvIA M AN EXPERIMENTING
 IN KING CRAB.
Giant Shellhsh Promise to Become New Alaskan
 Sea Product

An interesting new crab fishing industry is developing in the Sel- dovia area under the management of Leon Vincent, veteran Aleutian Islands and Bering Sea trader.
 Vincent became interested in the King crab, a large shell fish that reaches a spread of feet or more. It is canned extensively by the Jap anese, and constitutes almost wholly, the pack of Nippon packers every year.
 Because the Dungeness crab, corn- mon to most Pacific Northwest waters, is of not such value as canning fish in comparison with the ,rosser King crab, the latter com- nands much better market.
 La3t year, Vincent experimented with various kinds of gear in dif- fercnt locations, finding it possible to obtain regular supply of the crabs at almost all times of the year by fishing at different depths at different seasons.
 This year, the King Grab Co.,, Vim cents cufit at Seldovia, will con- tinue its experimenting, feeling it's way slowly, although the few dozen cases packed last year were well re- ceived by buyers.
 Dr. H. c. McMillan, who is known or his research on shellfish of the, Pacific. has been studying the hab- its of King crab for many years.
 McMillen declares that the AL aska King crab resources are ample to support an industry as large as that in the Orient, and declares there is no longer any doubt that they can be caught by Americans. continuously in substantial quantit. ics.
 He refers to the Japanese opera, tions off the Alaska coast as proof that development by floating can ncries is feasible, but says also that there are number of places in the Westward where shore canner- ies could operate efficiently.

WiCkershanl Day Is Proposed by
 Bar Association
Juneau Legal Profession Urges Setting Aside Aug
 ust "A to Honor Judge

Setting aside of August "A of each year as "Wickersham Day" was urged by the Juneau Bar Asso- ciati3n in resolution adopted at todays luncheon meeting of the group in Percys Cafe, "in recogni- ton of Judge Wickersham's patriotic services to the Territory
 The resolution follows
 Whereas. the Territory of Alaska is greatly indebted to the Honorable James Wickersham for many years Of devoted service to its welfare and interest; and
 Whereas, Judge Wickersham's most signal achievement, among many, on behalf of the Territory was the enactment by the Congress of the United States of the Alaska Organic Act" which was approved by President William H. Taft on August 12, 1912; and
 Whereas, the 24th of August is also the birth date of Judge Wick ersham, he having been born on August "A, 1857 and
 Whereas, it is eminently befitting that Alaska express, during Judge Wickersham's lifetime, it's apprecia- ton of his services to the Terri tory, which include not only the dfo of 1n -E n n Act" but also the compiling of the Alaska Law Reports, the collecting of an exhaustive bibliography upon 1 Alaska, many years of labor as Judge of the Alaska District Court and as Delegate to Congress from Alaska, and other deeds too numer- ous to recite herein: ! Therefore, Be It Resolved by the Juneau Bar Association that the 1 1889 Alaska Territorial Legislature be hereby petitioned. upon its con- vening, to create and designate, in recognition of Judge Wickersham' s patriotic services to the Territory, the 24th of August of each year as "Wickersham Day"
 And, Further, that the other bar associations, commercial, civic and fraternal organizations through out the Territory be hereby re- quested to likewise petition the Alaska Territorial Legislature. 1 Unanimously adopted by the Ju- neau Bar Association this 23rd day of April, 1888.
