Importation of milk into the
Territory, in violation of the Stand

stopped by the Department OF

Several concerns at Ketchikan had
been bringing fluid milk in from Sc
attic, Nazi said, but have now been
prevailed upon to cease the prac-
tice.
Reason for the Importation was
that Ketchikan does not have quite
neough milk produced locally for
needs of the city, but this situation
will be corrected by enlarging OF
herds there, Mast said.
The milk ordinance will be en-
forced rigidly hereafter, Nasi stated

BY PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-One OF
the multifarious duties of this gov
eminent is to starve IA cave-ticks
to death, slowly.
Undoubtedly the COVER m n
would starve the ticks faster If II
could but they don't starve on a
speed-up basis. For five years now
they have had nothing to eat, they
seem reasonably alert, and, more
to the point, they continue to har-
Dor venomous supplies of the bac-
terra which cause relapsing fever
That should be of especial interest
to Texas and California, where
the ailment is best known.
1t now is almost question

today adopted a resolution request
ing that the Legislature liberalize
the pension law to provide $50 per
month uniform pensions for both
men and women and to eliminate
the pauper clause from applications.
Pensions currently range from $40
to $50 monthly depending upon
need and applicants must swear they
are paupers.
Pioneers said the new law would
relieve congestion at the Pioneers
Home at Sitka and permit the aged
to maintain an American standard
of living.
