Stanley chairman of the Johnston
County Election Board, said the regis
tration books are sin mighty bad
.hape." Solicitor Canaday showed
illngness to cooperate in thorough
threshing out the matter.
Reason for these condemnatiOns OF
he Johnston county election officials
vas the undenied assertion that there
mas been absolute flouting of many OF
he laws and. regulations regarding
gistration and voting.
For example, Neill NICK. Salmon, OF
Mr.. Young's counsel, cited his check
I'D of registration books in five pre-
acts of the county. In these pre-
,incts there were registered a total
/ 5000 voters, against whose names
arty affiliaiton was shown in only
958 cases. North Cardinals law re-
Iuires that registrars shall ask ana
record the party utilization of every
otter who registers.
In most cases, Mr.. Salmon said, the
registration was merely a list of
,ames and nothing more. The law
.equires, among other things, that
ne registrar list the age, address ana.
ate registered. He cited Cleveland
precinct, where there were 638 per-
ems registered, with nothing at all
on the list except the names,
At Clayton, he charged, 2 300 names
IRE on the registration lists and 923
actually voted. In only SO cases is
party aft iation shown.
The Young petition charged. and
ar. Salmon argued, that in many
,ases known Republicans voted in the
Democratic primary, and that these
republicans were actually solicited
take part.
AS a bit of comedy relief, Salmon
pointed out that some voters were
hown on the list with I'D" and "R"
9th in their party utilization column,
whareupon Chairman Lucas remark
ID, "They were Democrats for pri-
nary purposes, Republicans in the
General elections, I guess"
The Young charges and petition
were heard after the board had con-
sidered the case of E. ]. Wellons,

I do not mean to imply that the c.

Nevertheless, if we do have two
more years of hard times, it wants to

FINANCING UNDER NEW HOUSING ACT

In connection with the Better Housing program now being pushed in this community, a great many questions are asked about financing and what the terms under the new National Housing Act changes Before acting, of course, the person plan ming to take advantage of the housing provisions should, and no doubt will contact the Federal Housing Administration in person.
 In an effort, however, to throw some light the general provisions under the act, present the following salient points offered by FILA authorities
 Small down payment and large percentage loan; long repayment period which makes periodic refnanc ing unnecessary: reduction of principal by convenient monthly payments which include carrying charges and taxes.
 For new construction appraised at S6OOo less the down payment which may include the lot can be as low as ten percent. The home must be for owner occupancy and approved by the FILA for insurance

been dropped $l a hundred pounds of meat into Fairbanks-because Ghezzi, with his fleet of refrigera : tion trucks represents a serious competitive menace.
 The short story of this pleasant, clean-cut looking David among Co., liaths, is inspiring.
 Young Ghezzi, son of the prom inent Interior man of the same name, was born in Nenana, and reared there. He did not look for ward to university training either in Alaska, or the Great Outside, so enticing with its distant pastures to most youths who feel they are missing so much in opportunities in Alaska
 Instead, Alfred Ghezzi, Jr., three years ago left his books for the summer and bought himself an old Ford truck. He freighted half the summer over the Richardson Trail from Valdez to FalrbankS-390 long and tortuous driving miles for even a mature man.
 At the end of the summer, Chez zi had made enough to buy himself another truck. and so began his second season, while still in school with two trucks, and another driver.
 Those two trucks made enough money that summer to permit Ghezzi to buy two more trucks, in- creasing his fleet to four. After last summers operations, Ghezzi junked all four Of his. trucks and took a trip Outside to see something new in freight trucks.
 Result, on the steamer Yukon

was big deckload of three stream lined black and orange freight trucks, cellu-fiber insulated, air tight, and having compartments for 25O pounds of salt and ice.
 To Buck Railroad
 With those trucks, young Ghezzi. who does not yet have to pay school tax, is going to buck the United States Government-opera Alaska Railroad, whose freight rates have been condemned as too high. , E Even at the cut t-rate in the rail- roads coming summer ratings. Ghezzi will be able to operate at profit. he believes.
 T won't be able to make a great deal at that price," he admitted. But I can sssA give Fairbanks betters servicek The railroad lands the freight on the other side of the slough and the consignee must pay for warehousing and handling can beat the perishable express train by day and a half. I can beat the freight train by three days, and on top of that, I can drive my freight to the mans door"
 Ghezzi is not going to be satis-. fled with his three refrigeration trucks. He is going to buy two more trucks before the Trail opens this summer, but he isn't sure whether they will be refrigeration turcks or not. s sgspss sy sA ? That is the story to. date of Al. aska's youngest big business man Perhaps next Spring his story will have new angles.

Alaska Airmail Response 0. K.
Fairbanks News-Miner,

'faupdIlKS NeWS-Mmer)
 Aaskas newly instituted armail service is ori- enting itself in way to make Uncle Sam sit up and take notice.
 The first airmail to be dispatched southbound after the initial flight left Fairbanks recently over the pioneer route to Whitehorse and Juneau, to meet with coastal ship for the States In that mail from this point were 128 pounds of letters. Allowing 50 letters to the pound, this means total of e400 letters.
 These figures reveal the fact Alaskans are quickly responsive to the new serviceand pleased to pay twice the ordinary rate in order to get speedier de- livery.
 Not all the letters in the outgoing airma were from Fairbanks. Many of them were mailed at Nome and other distant, and interior pointsand sent here under the armail coverage by connecting arpanes and other star route lines. n .d
 Aiaskans have been made pretty well aware Of the new service. The thing now, is to get the friends and business houses in the Outside world who write to Aaskans thoroughly acquainted with the fact the Alaska airmail is a regular thing
 The Fairbanks Chamber of Commerce has had cards printed to slip into each outgoing letter re- minding all to whom it writes that they can and should respond by airmail in order to obtain the speedies possible delivery and at the time courage the continuation and expansion of airmai service in Alaska
 Other organization and individuals might well pursue the same policy and insert some such small printed slip in their letters-or write a reminder to that effect at the end of each letter
 It may cost little something to add a second stamp to an airmail letter but when it is calculated what the advantages are in the saving of time and speeding up of business turnovers the increased costs are nothing compared to the gains
 Postmaster General James A. Farley visits Alaska this summer and he will see for himself and get personal contact and insight appreciation of what the airma really means to this vast American com monWealth And with a liberal patronage of this pioneer Fairbanks Whehorse- Juneau route he in all likelihood will be persuaded to exercise his authority in extending the airmai routes to all major ceners of the Territory
 And by the way MT. Farley should be invited to come Vlst Falrbanks-not merely skirt the coast His coming here will go long way toward getting what Interior Alaska should have in postal services
 The most effective way to persuade him that the Golden Heart of Alaska is a place worth while is to continue to give the airma bumper patronage

THE BRISTOL BAY SITUATION AGAIN

Report persists that at least one Japanese fish ing vessel operating in Bristol Bay again this season. apparently canning crabs. There may be others, but the Coast Guard has definitely established the exis- tence of large floating cannery attended by three tralers several gasboats about eight miles off, shore in the vicinity of Port Moer fairly close in- spection by the Coast Guard revealed that crab can ming underway. the decks of the vessel being fitted for the purpose.
 The point of course, that if the ship is equipped to pack crab it likewise is equipped to pack salmon if it's operators decide do so The Japanese conten ton for years before the agreement of last winter when Tokyo assured this country there would be no Nippon ships in Alaskan waters this season has been that they only fishing for crabs. This used as sort of a defense against the charge that they taking salmon and rapidly depicting the Alaska fishing grounds It later developed that there no question about their salmon operations and admission found this last winter in the agreement made by Tokyo with our own State Department to stay out of Alaskan waters.
 But almost before the ink is dry on the agree ment. the Japanese are back in Bristol Bay fishing for crabs if reports to be believed and there seems to be no question of their general accuracy
 The chances that if a fairly strong protest is made by this country the floating cannery will dis appear from Bristol Bay-and, after the furry of such protest it will steam right back in again and Nart- operatidfs Anew5 AS matter of record that has been the situation in the past and it could go indefinitely agreement or no agreement.
 ILere apparently. is but one way in which to handle the Bristol Bay invasion problem and actually arrive the point protecting Alaskas fishing banks That is to put into effect the bill now proposed in Congress to extend American jurisdiction over all Alaska fishing waters, regardless of the three-mile limit. It is obviously apparent that unless this try takes such step and backs that move up with force if need be, there will be no solution of the harassng situation in Bristol Bay.
