In discussing the rifle range

Wrangell and the surrounding com
munity had grown TO the point
where il IS unsafe to use a high
powered rifle in the immediate vi
cinity because of the danger of hit
ting someone. It is virtually impos-
sible to go and sight rifle close by.
he said. because of this ever-present
danger which a range would elm
mate as well as giving sportsmen of
the community an opportunity for
competition and recreation.
Mayor Fisk stated that it is the
plan Of the City TO assemble a group
of proposed projects in the COM
munity and submit them to the Gee
Administration through the Forest

lishment OF a Gee camp here this

employees TO
RECEIVE SHARE
OF MILLIONS

Employees in the Delaware, Mary
land, D. G. Division of the Standard
Oil Company of New Jersey which in
cludes the lower Eastern Shore of Vir-
ginia and the Eastern Section of West
Virginia were informed today by Mr..
w. H. Evans, Manager, that they were
to receive their share Of approximate
ly $2,250,000 that the Company
and affiliates are making as an ad-
ditional contribution to increase the
balances which employees have to
their credit in the Annuity and Thrift
Plan.
Every employee participating in the
Plan will receive a credit of $25.00
and those not participating in the Plan
who have one or more years of service
will receive credit of like amount.
The remainder of the $2,250,O00 will
be distributed on a proportional basis
to the employees participating in the
Thrift Plan.
Under the provisions of the En-
ployees Thrift Plan any employee can
authorize his employing company to
withhold and assign to his credit in
the Fund not less than per cent nor
more than 13 per cent out of his pay
envelope. The employing Company
adds to this payment dollar for dol
lar on the first per cent of the en-
ployee's salary assigned to the Fund
and Soc more for each dollar above the
per cent minimum required for mem
bership.
The management has made it clear
since the Fund was first set up on
January 1, 1886 that while the Com
pany was under no obligation to do so,
it hoped to make an extra sum avail
able when business conditions, earn
ings, cash position and other factors
justified it in doing so. The two and
a quarter million dollars contributed
this year brings the total additional
contributions made under the Plan by
all participating companies to nearly
$10,750,000.00.
