TONG DISTANCE PLEASE FROM
 JUNEAU PHONES
New System to Be Inaug- urafed Beginning
 Friday Night

Telephone service from any home in Juneau to the wide world will be inaugurated tomorrow night.
 This new feature allows any resi- dent in the city having telephone to place calls directly from their home to any long distance objective
 The arrangement eliminates the old necessity of placing all radio telephone long distance calls directly from the radio office in the Federal Building.
 Two trunk telephone lines are re- quired to route these calls from the city to the office of the Signal Corps and thus out over the radio telephone.
 Through the instrumentality of the citys leading hotels. Gastineau and Baranof. these trunk lines have been provided and paid for. The hotel management of these two hostelries are paying the bill for the use of the necessary lines but the SeIVlCe IS ehbcliQCu u dil ouitSe'N at no extra charge.
 Those who would place a long distance call may now do so by merely ringing O44 or long distance which connects them with the Signal Corps office with whom the far-a-Way call is placed Incoming calls like wise are routed over the trunk lines from the Signal Corps office to private residences.
 In addition to this latest innova- ton radio-t -telephoners will soon have contact with Ketchikan from Ju- neau. Service here will be duplicated by that in Juneau. Details of ad- ministration, equipment and rates of this new service are being worked out by the Alaska Communications System at Seattle.

Trade Pact Revisions
Slated With Several
European Nations
Discussion Under Way;
Belgium Expected to
Be First in Series
By CRESTON B. MULLINS.


The United States is preparing
for revision of reciprocal trade
agreements with several European
countries, principally industrial, for
mutua! stimulation of trade.
Preliminary conversations with
the Belgian government have
reached the stage where announce
ment is expected soon from the
State Department of intention to
negotiate a new agreement to re-
place that concluded in 1885. the
second of 81 under the 1884 Trade
Agreement Act.
The Belgian government Is eX-
pected to make known in the near
future it's willingness to enter into
formal negotiations for a broaden
ing and deepening of the conces-
sions contained in the present
agreement.
Among First in Series.
Except for the Canadian agree
ment, which was revised last year
In connection with the British ne
gotiationS, the Belgian will be the
first of a series of readjustments
designed to iron out unsatisfactory
features revealed in some cases by
several years of operation. and to
take advantage of more favorable
conditions which have arisen in
others.
Informal discussions are in prog
ress with Sweden and Switzerland,
with which agreements were signed
In 1885, and with France and Fin
land, with which they we're signed
in 1886
American foreign trade officials
are convinced that five years of
the trade agreements program has
proved its value. not only to the
United States, but to other coun-
tries as we'll, and have found gov
ernments with which agreements
are in effect favorably disposed to-
ward increasing concessions where
they alerady exist and toward ex-
tending them to commodities still
not affected.
The reciprocal trade program has
proved boon not only to American
export trade, but has also removed
onerous barriers to the trade of
other countries in the United States.
Map Shifts Factor.
Reopening of the Belgian agree
ment at this time is facilitated by
replacement of Czecho- o-Slovakia by
Belgium as chief supplier of num-
ber of American industrial imports.

Navy Divers
Ready For
New Salvage
Efforts To Be Resum-
ed Toward Raising
Submarine S qualus,
Lifted Then Lost Back
to Floor of Ocean;
Seas Are Moderating

Portsmouth, N. H., July 15.-(AP)
With seas gradually moderating,
crack navy divers lined the deck of
the salvage ship Falcon today ready
to descend to the sunken submarine
Squalus to determine the extent of
damage to the craft in her second
plunge to the ocean bottom Thurs
day.
Meanwhile, three pontoons dam
aged when the Squalus reared her
head and broke away during the first
lifting operations two days ago, were
hauled alongside the Falcon and
crew members hoped aboard the
bobbing cylinders and untangled the
wires and cables preparatory to re-
pairing the lifts.
Naval officers said repairs would
be made at the salvage scene, if pos
sible, but if the damage was found
to be too great the pontoons would
be towed to the navy yard.
Heavy seas have blocked a second
start on the difficult task of raising
the craft, still the tomb of 26 men,
and salvage experts were unable to
draw up a new plan of action until
divers completed their surveys. Of
ficers said at least 25 dives would
have to be made for a full study of
the new situation. More than $50
dives were made during the first
salvage effort, from six to nine day.
AS they waited, the experts spe-
culated on what might have occurred

(By The Associated Press)
Asserting WPA strikes
throughout the country had
proven embarrassing to their
cause" Senator Murray, Demo-
crat, Montana, announced in
Washington today that a group
of senators who favor WPA
payment of prevailing wage
scales had decided to abandon
temporarily any attempt to re-
vive this issue in Congress.
Prevailing wages were paid skill
ed workers until Congress, in new
relief legislation, substituted a Sc
curity wage provision based on a
13O-hour work month. Over this
change the strikes arose.
Senator Murray, author of an
amendment to restore the prevail
ing wages, said that advocates of the
plan decided at a meeting yesterday
that the present strike situation
renders it inopportune to press i'm
mediately for a restoration of the
prevailing wage principle"
Murray made his statement after
g night of bloodshed and rioting in
Minneapolis had resulted in a whole
sale shutdown of WPA projects
there. One man was killed and II
persons gassed or injured in a melee

The project had operated in de-
fiance of the strikers, who along
with thousands of relief workers in
other cities, have been protesting

polls, appealed to Attorney General
Murphy for the cooperation of the
Federal government.

Handled as carefully as boys

Some came to camps in linn

Whole families drove up to
camp to kiss the new soldiers
goodbye.
This was approved by the authori-

be conSioerate of the new citizen
