TACOMA, Wash, April 21. Federal Judge E. E. Cush- man ruled late yesterday that picket lines must not inter- fere with Interstate Com merce.
 The ruling was made as the veteran jurist granted a tenn porary order restraining picketing at a Ketchikan pier where the Alaska Transp0r- tation Company's steamer Tongass was prohibited from unloading cargo last Tuesday because the l0ngshoremen re- fused to go through picket lines.

Alaska Fishermen Group fo Permit Many Ves-
 seIs 10 Sail North

SEATTLE, April 2l--An official of the Alaska Fishermen's Union announced that proposed labor ag- reements affecting between five and six hundred employed in vest ward Alaska Cook Inlet canning op- erations would be voted upon tonight by union membership.
 A third agreement covering Kod- iak Island also may be ready to be voted upon, the spokesman said.
 Union officials said the packers are offering five per cent wage increase over 1888 in Westward AL aska, which would return the wage scale to the 1887 basis.
 Cook Inlet Proposal
 In the Cook Inlet proposal, the agreement contains five per cent increase proposal with reference to amounts of workers profits on the total pack, but no union wage in- creases are provided for.
 However, Union officials said Tots of working conditions concessions are being made"
 Proposals affect trap watchmen, tendermen, pile driver men, rigging scow workers, and culinary workers.
 Releasing"
 A. E. Harding, Secretary of the Washington Council of the Mari time Federation of the Pacific, said the Federation is releasing" all cannery tenders and supply ships in Seattle, except those destined for the Copper River.
 Operators are continuing sincere efforts towards settlement of nego- tiations with unions of the Feder- ation," Harding said.
 Copper River boats will not be per- mitted to sail until workers are paid wages still due fishermen of the Copper River area from the 1888 season. Harding said
 Acceptable agreements by the AL aska Fishermen's Union may not mean complete settlement of the ju- risdictional dispute affecting some branches of the industry, as the AFL has a rival union for tendermen, over which the APU claims juri- diction.

CONCERN FELT IN JAPAN
 OVER RETURN OF UNITED
 STATES FLEET TO PACIFIC

TOKYO, April 21.-In contrast with official expressions of no con- cern, two Tokyo newspapers inter- pret the return of the United States Battle Fleet from the Atlantic to the Pacific as threat to Japan.
 The newspaper Hochi Hochi said the move is designed to relieve Great Britain from the burden of defense in the Pacific and permit her to concentrate her fleet elsewhere, es- pecially if there is war in Europe, on the theory that Japan will join Italy and Germany.
 The Daily Miyako declares that Great Britain has concluded agree ments with the United States, France and The Netherlands for joint defense of their respective Pa cific bases in event of conflict.

Public Welfare Director Says Situation Bad-
 Relief Impossible

The days in which it was "easy to get a job in Alaska" are over, William B.

 These transielts soon find them selves in difficulties, Kirk said, be- cause with no work to be had. they are soon applying for relief, which cannot be furnished them until they have been residents of the Territory for full year.
 Anyone wishing to come to Alas ka looking for work, unless he has a return ticket and sufficient funds to support himself for a year, had better remain at home in the States, where at the worst he can be furn- ished relief" Kirk said.
 Land Of Opportunity
 Outside magazines and newspap- CTS which advertise Alaska as place of easy employment and great opportunity are largely to blame for the trek north of these unfortunate people. Kirk said.
 Alaska is place of great op- portunity," he declared, but it takes one who is familiar with the country and who has capital to make use

THE PRINCIPAL ISSUES Then come the major points at issue:
 l. Shall the United States, immedi- ately upon the outbreak of war, prohibit American ships to carry war supplies to belligerent na- tions? The net effect of such legislation would be to permit warning nations to come to the United States with their own ships, buy supplies. and get them home if they could. U. S. ships would be kept out of the war zone. That is the point of Sena- tor Pittman's bill and he con- cedes it's present purpose is to permit such nations as England and France to get supplies, while Germany and Italy, blocked up by superior naval powers, could get nothing.

1-2 cup lard and 1-2 cup cold wa- ter.
 Doubtless many have experimented with the recipe and found it as fine as my recommendation of it.; while a few less experienced pastry cooks may have had only fair success with it. That, "ou may be sure, was due to either to improper mixing or baking. Try again, fol- lowing my detailed instruction for mixing very carefully and re- membering these points baout pie baking:
 The treatment a pie receives. after it is poppde into the oven is most important part of its making. The plate used may be of tin or glass; but the baking must be thoroughly done, and the crust golden brown. Burned pasrty is anything but at- tractive to the eye, and will be found to be bitter to the taste. To avoid scorching or burning of the crust, use a moderate oven heat (350 degrees F) and as rule, allow 35 to 45 minutes for baking time.
 It is never necessary to grease a pie plate; the pastry itself furnishes enough so that there is no danger of the pies sticking to the plate. Roll your paste out so that 1t is not more than one-fourth of an inch thick, usually roll mine thinner, for like to have my pies finished with as small an amount of crust as possible, and as large an amount of filling.

Cream Soup Has Savoy Personality

Usually cream of celery soup is too bland to be exciting. But here's a cream of celery that has per- sonality! The secret of it's full flavor is to brew the coarse outer stalks and leaves-and use that fine aro- matic broth in making the soup. The savory flavor is further en- hanced by the addition of little onion! Um-m-ml This is cream of celery soup that is deliciousl
 Cream of Celery Soup
 tbsp. butter
 cups finely chopped celery
 tbsp, finely chopped onion
 12 Ups salt
 Pepper
 cups flour
 cups celery broth
 cups irradiated evaporated
 milk
 Melt butter, Add celery, onion, salt and pepper. Cover closely and summer for IS minutes over low flame. Sprinkle with flour, stirring to blend well. Then add the celery broth, made by boiling celery tops and coarse outside stalks in about 3 cups boiling water for IS minutes. Cook until soup begins to thicken, then add milk and cook thoroughly. One teaspoon finely chopped pars- ley improves appearance and flavor of soup. Yield: 6 servings, 5 cups. By using irradiated evaporated milk. cream of celery soup is made twice as nourishing, for the concen- trated milk supplies double he amount of the important milk min- erals plus extra vitami D-the vita min needed for utilizing those min- erals in building and maintaining sturdy bones and sound teeth. At the same time this double-rich milk makes cream of celery soup what good cream soup should be rich in flavor and surperlatively smooth.

Pleasing The Man
BY CHLOE JAMESON

While you are busy revising bud gets for the coming year, there may be & temptation to cut food bills where no cutting should be done. You may try lowering the quality of butter served at table, buying c grade eggs and milk, and resort to such clever little tricks as skimping the quality of coffee used when making the morning cup, thinking your husband so used to first class coffee that he will never question it.
 Beware .. in all three direc- tions especially about the coffee. Nothing can so quickly send a man off to work in a bad humor as one spineless cup of coffee fol- lowed by 8 second cup taken in the hopes of finding the old-time vigor denied by Number One.
 As to the blend you use, let it be the one that suits your tastes best. A few cents more or less amount to very little in the long run, when divided by the cost per cup. But the way you make the coffee matters, and the amount used counts most Of all.
 The great cooks unite in pre- scribing one heaping tablespoon of ground coffee for each cup, and an- other spoonful for the pot, whether coffee is percolated, dripped or boiled. Tn all cases the pot must be sweet and clean, the water bubbling briskly when poured over the ground coffee, if you use the drip pot. as most women do in these days be- cause of its convenience and relia- bility. No watching the clock is necessary to prevent under or over- cooking by this method, no extrac- tion of bitter oils results.
 Serve plenty of coffee cream, if at all possible. If a substitute is nec- essary and your husband dislikes the taste of canned cream, do not spoil his beverage by using it for economy's sake. Try introducing him to rich hot milk and coffee blended, Boston fashion, or boil milk down to cream-like consistency.

Left-overs are often treated as something with no value, but they can also be made into very attrac- tive and appetizing dishes. Bread pudding, French toast, brown Betty and crumbs are just a few ways of using leftover bread. Delicious pudding may be made from dried cake. Leftover fish creamed, with a small amount of chopped green pepper is delicious. Fruit juice, left from canned fruit, combined with gelatine, makes a good dessert. Left over broth can be made into deli- cious jellied bouillon by adding gel- atine. Some good recipes for using left-overs follow:

THE CHEF SUGGESTS - Good Homemade Pie Usually Makes "A Hit With Most Folks
By JOSEPH BOGGIA Chef-The PIaza-New York

Always cut the paste larger than plate to allow for shrinkage. If the pie is to be an apple pie which re- quires a large amount of filling, you will need to allow more paste for the upper crust than for the lower, and always perforate the up- per crust so that the steam may eS- cape, and be sure to brush the edges of the under crust with water before putting the crusts together. This usually will hold the two crusts to- gether so tha tthe juices will not run out. but not always. If a very juicy pie is to be handled, just bind the pan with an inch-wide strip of cotton cloth which has been wrung out of water, and will keep the exuding juices from dripping down and burning in the oven.
 Let me give you now 8 delicious filling for Mocha Pic an econo- mical recipe the family will be sure to like.
