 l. The buying increase wa s mainly in the field of consumer goods (groceries, clothes).
 2. Purchases of capital good (those intended for plant expan- sions) were one-fourth below the level which sustained the prosperity of the happy twenties.
 3. Much of the buying of capi- tai goods actually reported in 1886 and 1937 was merely for replace ments long deferred, and did not represent new capital invested in the hope of profit.

Some people have said the Taku River "has call all its own," and motion picture has been filmed, in an attempt to register that call.
 MT. and Mrs George Peacock, young married couple who have a cabin on Moose Lake, few miles up and across the river from Taku River Lodge, came back to Juneau the other ray to admit that the "call" does exist.
 Last fall the Peacocks went Out side for a trip and left the river behind. They intended to stay in the States. They visited relatives and friends in Oregon and Californ- ia took in the San Francsico Fair, and soaked up a lot of sunshine.
 But now, with the Taku River breakup only a few weeks away, the ducks casting longing eyes north and the hooting grouse ready to send their calls down from the timbered slopes, MT. and Mrs. George Pea cock will soon be at home to friends again at Moose Fake cabin.
 They will fly out to the mouth of the Taku as soon as conditions are favorable, and will then mush up- river to the cabin.

Supreme Court in
Order Reinstafing
Antitrust Charges

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4. (UP)-
The supreme court today reinstated
antitrust indictments against the
Chicago milk industry.
The decision, an important victory
for the government. reversed the
action of a northern Illinois fed
eral district court which dismissed
the sweeping charges brought
against milk producers, distributors
and handlers in the four-state Chi
cago area.
Labor circles had awaited the
decision because of its possible eff
feet on the longstanding conten-
ton on labor that congress never
intended the antitrust laws to ap-
ply to unions The significance OF
the case was broadened, however,
by necessity for ruling on whether
the Sherman act could be invoked
in agricultural situations which the
justice department considers him
dersome to trade.
The court in a unanimous opin-
ion written by Chief Justice Charles
Evans Hughes, said that the ques-
ton whether the labor union is
exempt from antitrust statutes lis
not open on this appeal"
THE district court did not con-
strue the Sherman act as inappli-
cable to these defendants and the
governments appeal does not pre-
sent that question: the court said
The indictments charged that the
Pure Milk association, an organiza,
ton of dairy farmers, conSpireo

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. /. (UP)-
Federal mediators today renewed
their search for a peace formula to
end a San Francisco bay water
front tieup and release cargoes held
in piers and ships for "a days by
strike of CIO dock clerks.
DR.. Adolph Bloch, federal mari
time labor board member leading
the mediators, conferred with rep
resentatives of the clerks and plan
ned other meetings with employers
and with Governor Olson's five
man strike commission.
Il am hopeful something will
come out of today's conferences, y
Bloch said.
He indicated the so-called Seattle
plan governing employment of both
monthly and daily dock checkers
was the basis of the conferences.
In the strike here the ClO Ship
Clerks association demanded sim
gle contract placing monthly and
daily men on the same basis and
the employers held out for separate
agreements permitting them to re-
tain control of hiring monthly men.
Joseph T. Marias, chairman OF
the governors strike commission.
denied reports his group expected
to submit a peace plan.
THAT was just wishful thinking, y
Marias said. He said the commit
tee was standing by ready to confer
with any interested party at a mo-
ments notice.

serve commission opened hearings
