 TIME TO SPARE
 CITY FROM FIRE
Wind Velocity Only , to 8 Niles : Temperature
 Six Above Zero

The weather gods were kind to Juneau this morning. averting a major catastrophe which would surely have spread fire to half the City if yesterdays wind had been blowing today.
 Wind velocity throughout the time the fire raged in the Goldstein Building was only from five to eight miles per hour, according to U. $ Weather Bureau figures. The wind blew steadily at 30 miles an hour all night until 3 o'clock this morning at which time it suddenly died to 10 miles an hour and there after decreased.
 While wind was moderate, how ever. temperature was low to chill firefighters and drape icicles from wires and cornices. Minimum tenn perature this morning was six de- grees above zero at 6:30 o'clock and was about that throughout the day.
 Cold weather prevailed elsewhere today, with 10 above reported at Ketchikan, six above at Sitka and 60 below at Mayo, Y. T..

Mrs. Agnes Readman, third floor occupant of the Affiliated Goldstein Building, owes her life to two un- identified firemen.
 When smoke from the flaming basement choked the building, fire men put ladders to the windows and began clearing out tenants who could not gain exit by the stairs.
 Mrs. Readman, at her third floor window, refused to go down the high ladder with waiting firemen, and so two fire fighters donned gas masks, fought their way to her rooms and with wet towels about her face, guided her through the smoke filled corridors and down the back stairs to safety.

POWERFUL DRAMA OPENS TONIGHT ON
 LOCAL THEATRE
Ralph BeIIamY Stars in Ti- ile Role of Crime of Dr.
 HaIIet' af Capitol Show

The Crime of Dr. Hallet' which opens tonight at the Capitol The atre. is a powerful and poignant picture. It tears at the heart strings and holds the interest from the mo- ment that Dr. Hallet is first seen fighting a tragic misunderstanding in his Samaritan jungle laboratory, until the moment when he plucks victory and love from the jaws of defeat, and the snares of hatred.
 The story of this picture concerns a battle of elemental love and hate, with men and women aroused to primal emotion at fever heat, against background of heroic martyrdom to science. Hallet goes to Sumatra to find a fever cure, and falls in love with his woman assistant, Dr. Reynolds. When Dr. Saunders, an- other assistant, dies through an im- perfect experiment, Hallet takes his name to carry on his work to full filment. Then Saunders wife, Claire, arrives and threatens exposure.
 Ralph Bellamy is outstanding as Dr. Hallet. William Gargan, as his ironical assistant, revels in one of the pictures best roles. Josephine Hutchinson, as Hallet's sweetheart, Dr. Reynolds, gives a touching por- trayal, while Barbara Read, as Claire, and John King, as the ideal istic Dr. Saunders, round out most convincing cast. s. Sylvan Simon's direction is fine.

when the ice was so thick she couldn't be warped into her berth. The ugly, grunty little tugs were darting about for hours trying to clear a passage, and the slips were so frozen that her pm. docking had to be delayed until after nine.
 Shortly after this long converse ton he sent me pet monkey, but the monkey died. and the French Casino, for which he was producer, changed operators, and I never saw him after he went over to this new and gawdy Times Square entertain ment center
 They say they want this producer out because his shows are hitched to too much overhead. They want to operate on a lesser scale, and they cant do this when the shows per- sonnel is under contract to him. So the disappointing box-office take was used as the excuse, and the colors hauled down.
 That, at least, is the story one hears in the late hour stubes. It should come pretty close to the truth. This much is certain. this now idle Broadway casino is certain to reopen, and in the near future. It is too valuable and too costly a real estate venture to remain dark long. And when it does open, the chances are 100 to one the new pro- ducer will be George Hale a Broad way product, man who made his reputation on the street in which he has lived for the last 20 years.

Several hundred square feet of show window glass were broken in business houses adjacent to the Goldstein Building, but most of it is covered well by insurance.

They are saying this move was designed to ease the producer entire ly out of the picture. This producer is a convivial, cultured snowman, a gentleman who operates in the grand manner, poised bon vivant on two continents, a fancier of blooded pigeons, wholesale dealer in personable talent.

By GEORGE TUCKER

NEW YORK, Feb. 7.--The oracle who first observed that things are not always what they seem may well have had the rialto eabarets in mind. The big gilt ornate pleasure-domes of Broadway have always been a puzzle to creditors and public alike
 There was that bawdy, gawdy, naughty paraphrase of Paris street life which closed it's doors in the Times Square sector the other night. It had opened only a few weeks be- fore amid the blare of bugles and the waving of peacock feathers, but those who attended quickly discov- cred the show was far from new It was mainly restatement of former spectacles, a fact which might have been a factor in it's swift demise, but that is not the answer the boys in the back room are passing around.

sBalkanization' Trend Reversed

What pleasure it is to be able to write something in praise of state legislatures! They deserve the highest praise for having this year reversed a highly dangerous trend. and definitely turned back tlde which might well have engulfed the United States and drowned one Of the worlds last great free trade areas.
 The Council of State Governments was host in April to Chicago conference on Interstate Trade Barriers to point to the danger in this legislative trend. The campaign has apparently borne trult. For the council is now able to report that at least five states have removed from their statute books such discriminatlons and barriers, and that score of states have each refused to enact from one to six such proposals.
 Outstanding was repeal by Indiana Of port-of-entry provisions of it's liquor law. Missouri also got rid of such an act. Oklahoma repealed it's 1887 port-of-entry act when it found that Texas, consider ing the Oklahoma act unfriendly, was about to enact one in retaliation. Or course that is the way it works. There is no end to these discriminatlons, once started Both states are wise - and free in putting aside the barriers.
 New Mexico repealed several such laws, including a five-day license fee imposed on out-of-state salesmen. Florida kicked out a high inspection fee on imported eggs Our own state rejected bill which would - think of it - have limited the size of gasoline tanks on trucks passing through the state, in an effort to make truckers buy gasoline here. California, Connecticut, Florida Oregon, and New Jersey turned down proposed dlscrlmlna- tions against wines and beers from out glide the state California actually refused to retaliate against several states which still discrinate against California wines. Ohio turned down Dill which would have forbidden public insti- tutions to buy any coal mined outside the state. So it went, through score Of states and legislative sessions. The good work of the Council of State Governments in calling attention to this peril, and III enlisting the cooperation of state govern ments in the move to end it, cannot be exaggerated.
 But the greatest tribute should go to those hundreds of state legislators who placed the national welfare ahead of the little pressure groups within their states which demand the barriers. Those legls- lators ought to be given full credit for true patriotism in halting movement which can only hamper and restrict national trade industry, and farming at time when everything shows the need for encouraging and expanding them.
