WASHINGTON, May 19 (P) - The Senate served notice on the west and prospectors that Con gress will refuse legislation sus- pending the annual assessment work resuirement on mining claims held on location in the United States and Alaska.
 By a unanimous vote they ag- reed to postpone action indefinite ly on the bill of Senator Murray proposing the suspension of the $100 work requirement for the fiscal year ending June 30.
 Senator Hayden told the Sen- ate that the Legislation had no chance of being enacted and nov ed for postponement "so that claim holders may be put on mo- tice now they can expect no re- lief" He said not only certain Senators were prepared to resist it's passage but the House Conn., mittee on Mines and Mining and President Roosevelt were oppos- ed to the continuance of the mora torium.

All Kinds of Help for Cleanup

Fairbanksans bent on putting their premises in sanitary and at tfactive condition in connection with the present cleanup, fixup and paintup campaign will need lot of help to do the job prop erly.
 And in this connection it should not be forgotten that they can get all kinds of help by sim ply applying in person or tele- phoning the Territorial Employ ment Office or the Alaska Min ing Exchange.
 Hundreds of deserving men and women are registered with the two offices. Skilled artisans of every trade, common laborerS, specialists in every line-garden CTS, housekeepers, husky or han dy workers. Many of them are much in need of the price of a meal-and it will be a fine way to contribute to their need by giving them something to do and at the same time obtaining the service that will put the city in a sanitary condition and improve it's attractiveness - and gain a greater measure of fire protec- ton and added values of proper ties.
 The Territorial Employment Office is an institution that serv- es well the community and the entire district. The Mining Ex- change also serves a splendid purpose. Employers as we'll as city dwellers will do well to ac- cord them recognition. If you need help, don't forget to call. They are at your instant service.

SAN FRANCISCO. May 19 tP)

SAN FRANCISCO, May 19 tP) The U. s. Court of Appeals took under submission an appeal which by stipulation will deter mine the constitutionality of the Alaska Workman's Compensation Act. The case was appealed af- ter an adverse decision by Judge Alexander and is a $40O0 action against the Alaska--Juneau Min ing Go. Five other similar cases are pending in Alaska.
 The federal court, the counsel for the territory and the mining company agreed that the decision would be a judgement for the five pending cases.
 The Tefritory's suit sought to compel the mining company to pay $4000 to the Territory as compensation for the death of Eugene Qu2ekenbush in 1885, who lost his life in a mining ac- cident.

MEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRESS

pressed views which long have been uppermost in the minds of leading Alaskans, and which they will be glad to see voiced in the states which enjoys the major trade advantages and long has been the chief outside benficiary of Alaska's prosperity. He said:
 We have felt for a long time that We of the State of Washing ton have failed to understand the great importance of our ec- Onomic and commercial ties with Alaska. It will be the duty of our Alaska Committee to pro- mote a closer relationship be- tween citizens of Alaska and those of Washington.
 We will contact Alaskans, through our Committee, invite them to our meetings and gener- ally make them aware that we are definitely interested in Alaska. We know that tourist travel to Alaska from the States is of i'm portance to Alaskans, and will therefore take every opportun- ity to foster this business. We also know that itinerant labor should be discouraged from gO- ing to Alaska and we will do all we can in this regard"
 Alaskans long have felt the need of some sympathetic organ ization in the Pacific Northwest which will cooperate to the full est degree in getting just what President Drummey outlines. The chambers of commerce of Seattle, Tacoma and other Pac- fife coast points have worked along similar lines, but still there 'has been a large percentage of the people of the Pacific North west and the Pacific states who have not appreciated what Alas ka means to them and how es- sential 1t is that they should strive to sell Alaska to the world and promote her every need - many who have failed to realize that the greater measure of pros perity enjoyed by Alaska means a greater measure of prosperity to the states and cities of the Pacific seaboard.
 The Fairbanks and other cham bers of commerce will do well to extend the hand of welcome to the new Alaska Committee and to cooperate with them in every possible way
 The new Alaska Committee can do lot through it's commer cial contacts and it's western con gressional delegations and other influential bodies to get what it wants and what Alaska wants.
The Nome nugget., 1939-05-19

More power to the movement and may the chambers of com- merce and all other live bodies of Alaska find here a new way to promote a lasting and effective Alaska-Washington axis that will prove a boundless boon to all concerned.

You see, people from Richmond,
Roanoke, Charlottesville and even
more Southern centers were begin
ming to become Redskin customers.
It was all right with Mr.. Marshall
If he stirred up another Civil War.
Mr.. Marshall went further. He
built tepee to house his swing
band, and when the jive artists got
hot, smoke gushed from the top.
UShers were uniformed in Indian
costumes. and a feature of every
home game was a floor show in the
center of the gridiron. A new
dance, called the "Redskin Romp,"
was invented and committed, of
course, to Hail to the Redskins. F"
Pictures of the players were
printed on match boxes. Special
trains were arranged to transport
fans to out-of-town games. Seven
thousand Wasfingtonians paraded
down Broadway in 1887 when the
Redskins defeated the Giants for
the Eastern title. This year, ap-
proximately $4,000 went up to sec
the same titular game, and had
tickets been available, $4,000 more
would have made the trip. As it
was, many who got into the game
paid scalpers' prices.
Song in Demand.
There was a rush to buy copies OF
the rally song and a brisk sale OF
the recordings, placed on the market
by Marshall. A church held spe-
cial Redskin fans service at dawn.
No man in Washington, except
possibly the President, gets his name
in the papers 50 often as Marshall

ganized the Football Writers Asso-
citation of Washington, urging the
scribes to meet weekly. His idea, he
said, was to promote better and more
wholesome relations between the
press, the colleges and the pros.
The colleges, once his bitterest foes,
rallied round when they saw there
was no way of stopping him.
He presented the President with
a pass because that is the way Clark
Griffith, 70-year-old president OF the
Washington Nationals, attained the
title of Americas national pastime"
for baseball in 1912. Marshall went

In less than three years in Wash
ington, Mr.. Marshall has more than
regained the $85, 900 he lost in Bos-
ton, where one Sunday paper ran
q four column picture of visiting
girls hockey team and didn't print q
line on the Redskin game coming up
that day" The fact that George
Preston failed in Boston is one OF
the most remarkable incidents in
his life. What he did in the City OF
Culture, however, was to incur the
wrath of the press. Evidently, the
Boston press is more sensitive to
criticism than the press in Wash
ington and every other city in which
Marshall has promoted.

idea-man, amateur gagman and
punster, laundryman, society orna-
ment and fashion plate, also is a
sound and shrewd businessman.
It took a lot of money to make
a lot Of money with the Redskins IN
Washington, but 1t wasn't all Mar
shalls money or the do-re-mi Of his
partners When he signed Sammy
Baugh to a 3-year contract, report
edly calling for SIS, 900 annually, the
pro football world gasped. This was
unprecedented. Marshall, pro folk
predicted, would go broke. Baugh is
one of 30-odd players. A man can't
operate with this kind of an over
head.
Mr.. Marshall did not use mirrors
or rubber checks to turn the trick.
He simply signed Sammy to a con-
tract which guaranteed the great
passer a certain sum of money a
year due to his association with the
Redskins. Then he suggested to
sporting goods firms that football
be placed on the market bearing the
autograph of footballs greatest
passer. Soon appeared the Sammy
Baugh Streamliner," a glorified drug
store football. The manufacturers
fee for this service by the Redskins
helped to pay Baugh's salary. So
did money from cereal firms, lini-
ment makers, etc.
Too Many Rabbits.
The promotional genius of Mr..
Marshall was revealed early in life.
He was youngster running around
the hills of his native Grafton, w.
Va, where his father published a
newspaper. He tried raising rabbits
with the usual success. He soon had
too many rabbits and it became
necessary to part with the mamma
rabbit. There were no buyers for a
plain, everyday mamma rabbit, so
young Master Marshall inserted an
advertisement in his fathers paper
and called attention to a fine "Jack-
sohville hare" for sale. It brought
prospective buyers and, eventually,
the monumental price Of $1.25.
After all, real Jacksonville hare
sounds like it ought to be worth
something.
AS a youth, Master Marshall
played football. Naturally, he was
a quarterback, for he can't help tell
ing people what to do. His grid
career, like his stage fling, found
him painfully willing but made
quate. He tried at Grafton High
and when the Marshall family moved
to Washington he tried again-at
Central High School, Friends School
and Randolph Macon Academy.
When the World War came he
enlisted, got as far as Camp Meade
in a machine gun outfit and, while
still in the service in 1918, lost his
father and fell heir to q modest
laundry. Mr.. Marshall, then 81 and
cut out for anything but laundry
man, took his fathers 5000 of in
surance money, gave all except $500
to his mother and rolled up his
sleeves.
Success began to come to the for
mer rabbit raiser. As the money
rolled in, George Preston squeezed
out from under. He was too inters
ested in sports to keep his nose Oh
the laundry grindstone, so he hired
a manager. The field from which
he drew was, of all fields, the the
atrical! John G. Chevalier, one
time assistant manager Of the old
Keith's Theater, was appointed Il
Evening star., 1939-12-10

years ago as Marshal's No. l man.
With his laundry prospering, Mr..
Marshall turned anew to sports. He
placed the first professional basket
ball team IN washington, named 1t
after his laundry, and promoted 1t
successfully. He became the ROOM
mate Of Stanley Harris when the
Nationals second baseman was the
"boy wonder" OF baseball.
Speaks for District.
Marshall became a man-about-
town, frequenter of night spots,
a pal of politicians. He went to the
Democratic National Convention at
Chicago in 1892 as a delegate from
the District of Columbia and Sec
onded the nomination of Gov.
Albert c. Ritchie of Maryland
He made a speech asking for vote
for the District. This impassioned
plea, however, marked another Of
the few times George Preston Mar
shall of Grafton and Washington
failed to get his way.
He invaded the theatrical field
again, running three theaters. He
became publisher of the Washington
Times under william Randolph
Hearst, lasted year and boasted
there were more subscribers when
he left then when he came. AS he
grew In import, his critics dipped
more deeply into sarcasm. He was
styled in social circles as wet

York, Washington, Miami, Los An

once, a society editor who irked
him and was told off tagged him
George (No Tickee-No Shirtee)
Marshall"
George Preston has skipped into
the social circle and skipped out
again. It all depends on his mood.
His tastes are reflected in the ex-
pensive apartment he maintained at
one of Washington's swankiest hotels
before building japanese modern
home in Rock Creek Park. The bur-
gundy-and-gold Redskin colors)
cigarette boxes not only offered
smokes, but unrequested renditions
of Hail to the Redskins" when the
covers were lifted. Mrs. Marshall
imported the novelties from Switzer-
land.
Mr.. Marshall's career as a news
paper publisher was brief, but even
today he remains a publisher with
out portfolio. On impulse, he will
pick up the telephone, call the man
aging editor of the Los Angeles
Times and bestow upon that aston
ished individual q new, often entirely
radical and sometimes useful, sug-
gestion. If it is not the Times in
Los Angeles, it may be the Tribune
IN Chicago or the News in New York,
or any of the Washington papers.
Mr.. Marshall, in short, diligently
keeps his finger In the art Of telling
any newspaperman he knows how
to get out a newspaper. If he got
the chance, he would, in the same
spirit, tell the Secretary of State
how to conduct foreign relations
and would doubtless advise a doctor
on the best way to attack q tonsil.

Tex, a salary of $4,000 for five
months Of work.
Feeling that his team was ade-
quate, he next sought new ways Of
drumming up business. He in
vented contests, with business firms
doing the work and offering the
prizes. He recruited band, which
now is more than 100 strong and
has 30 hopeful musicians on the
waiting list. None of the horn
blowers is paid. They simply are
given an Indian costume and a
couple of tickets apiece to the games
for their wives and children to use.
With band organized, he hired
swing orchestra to supplement it.
Next, he needed song, song ring
ing with triumph and embracing
the thread of an ominous threat to
the Redskins enemies. His attrac-
tive wife, the former star of silent
films, Corinne Griffith, and Barnee
Breeskin presented him with Hail
to the Redskins"
There is a marked similarity to the
melody of the old hymn, Eyes, Jesus
Loves Me-" and the story is that
Barnee borrowed it, with some notes
from the University of California
victory song, to get the music for
the Redskin song. George denies
this. He says Barnee is not familiar
with either. The lyrics, written by
Mr.. Marshall's movie star wife, de-
lighted George Preston. They were
right down his alley.

Reflection on City.
Mr.. Marshall felt magnified. The
Redskins, he always insisted, were
civic institution, monument.
Defeat for the institution was a
reflection on the Capital of the
United States. The head inesman
/ who fails to call "offside" on the
enemy when it is justified should
be tried the next day by the Su-
preme Court. The referee who didn't
know field goal when he saw one
should be sent to Leavenworth.
"Hail to the Redskins" pleased Mr..
Marshall. He felt it aroused in
each Washingtonian, even the thou
sands from Iowa, Wisconsin, In
diana. Utah, Illinois and other way
stations, an overwhelming urge per-
sonally to battle belligerent aggres-
sors from Green Bay, New York,
Chicago and Philadelphia.
Mr.. Marshall, to give the song an
added zest, now has 1t played with
the refrain from Dixie" Mr..
