HUBBARD PAYS TRIBUTE TO
 KING ISLANDERS
Eskimos Superior People, Says Glacier Priest
 in Chamber Talk

In the past 50 years King Island has not had a suicide, murder, a divorce, a serious theft, a quar- rel or case of venereal disease, the Rev Bernard R. Hubbard, S.J., who has just returned from spend- ing a year on the Island, told the Juneau Chamber of Commerce to- day.
 The Chief of the King Islanders, who accompanied Father Hubbard on an oomiak voyage around the top of North America as far as Demarcation Point, told the "Gla- cier Priest he had personally de- livered 1,200 Eskimo babies without a fatality.
 That the Eskimos are a uni-lin- gual people is indicated by the fact that the King Islanders could con- verse all along the way with na- tive residents, Father Hubbard said He referred to the Eskimos as refugees from Genghis Khan" and said that some day some scientist will find tribe in Asia which speaks a language identical with that of King Island, off Seward Peninsula.
 WaIrus Plentiful
 Father Hubbard said all the na- tives in the north said the walrus were on the increase and that no new regulations were needed for their protection.
 Half a million people will hear him lecture on Alaska in the States this year, Father Hubbard pre- dicted. Next year he plans to re- turn with sound equipment to re- cord the native songs of Alaskan Indians, Aleuts and Eskimos.
 Other members of Hubbard's s party attending the Chamber lunch con today were Dr. Victor Levine and Ed Levin. Rev. w. G. LeVas- seur was also a guest at today's meeting.
 International Highway
 Norman Banfield displayed and explained several maps showing the various proposed routes for the AL aska International Highway.
 Visitors included Oliver T. Ed wards, Forest Service biologist; Lem Mckay, Ketchikan marine ways op- orator who plans to establish a ways here, and Dwight R. Ham mack, Director of the Alaska cen sus.

LUISE RAINIER
 E AT CAPITOL
 AS TOY WIFE
Metro 6o|dwyn Mayer Picture ks Featured
 al Local Theatre

Combining a brilliant and colorful picture of New Orleans and Louisi- ana plantation life of the 1850's with a group of masterful characteriza- tions headed by that of Luise Rainer, Metro -Goldwyn- Mayer has pro- duced a rarely satisfying motion pie ture in The Toy Wife" current at the Capitol Theatre.
 Miss Rainer, Academy Award win- ner for two successive years, adds another inspired delineation as the frivolous, irresponsible "Froufrou' Brigard. younger daughter of an aristocratic Creole family The part affords her an infinite variety of emotional expression of which she makes the fullest use with the same artistry that made her Anna Held and "O-Lan" the outstanding per- formances of the past two years.
 Miss Rainer is given brilliant sup port in the work of her two leading men, Melvyn Douglas and Robert Young Douglas offers an intelligent, forceful portrayal of the attorney loved by both Miss Rainer and her older sister. and who marries Miss Rainer only to incur her jealousy. Young is excellent as the devil-may- care romantic young gambler with whom Miss Rainer runs away.

New Nazi Consul for US.
 Usually Gets TitkIish Jobs
By The AP Feature Service

DN I1C fhI Cdt1kC kJCa fftt
 During the World War, Germany's trim, suave Capt. Fritz Wiedemann had under him a brave but bedrag- gled private with a handlebar nous tache. The private, Adolf Hitler admired his captain
 Today Hitler gives the orders. One of his latest was to send his former commander to San Francisco as Consul General.
 Captain Weidemann's new assign ment surprised diplomats who know how close he has been to Hitler as his personal adjutant. But Germany pooh -poohs suggestions that he may engage in propaganda work-the of ficial explanatin is that he wants to go and that Hitler is rewarding him for past services.
 Those past services seemed to be leading to more than consular post.
 The tall, erect captain was com- mander of the 18th Bavarian In- fantry Reserve Regiment in which Hitler served, first as a private and later a corporal.
 During Nazisms early days little was heard of the captain. He slipped into Hitler's inner circle practically unnoticed. The international spot light first focused on him during the coronation of King George VI in May, 1887, when he was a member of the German delegation.
 Makes Friends
 After that trip, Hitler learned the polished captain had way of mak- ing friends with English-speaking people and Hitler wanted such friends. He sent Wiedemann to Am erica that fall, apparently to check up on the American attitude toward Germany. What Wiedemann report ed isn't known, of course. But his work must have pleased his former

corporal. For last July the captain got his hardest assignment. Hitler was clamoring for the fire dom" of Czechslovakia. England was getting nervous. The king and queen were going to France as demon- stration of Aglo-French friendship. To head off any interference of his plans by the democracies, Hitler hur- riedly dispatch Wiedemann to Lon don. A
 There the captain had heart-to- heart talk with Lord Halifax, the Foreign Minister What Wiedemann said has never been revealed, out side of an assurance that Hitler desired to achieve peaceful set clement of outstanding questions.
 But evidently he so impressed Halifax and Prime Minister Cham berlain with the seriousness of the Czech situation that Lord Runciman was sent to investigate. And England and France never did head off Hitler.

 What he was telling us was that this gird had a reason, most ex- cellent reason for behaving as she had been for months on end, for haunting dim-lit bars and bright lit bars night after night and all night, and always saying the same thing to the men behind those bars, Brandy more brandy :"
 What he was telling us was that this girl was dying of cancer, this lovely girl whose name is as per- tinent to the theatre as moon and tides and winds are to the ocean.

ing worlds. Her mother is famous, a gracious. lovely lady whose name has graced Broadway marquees for years.
 The daughter followed in their footsteps, but the fame she won was no coat-tail courtesy in deference to the family name. You heard her name and applauded it without thinking of her father or her mother. Only last year she went tc Hollywood and scored stunningly in one of the films of the year. But she wouldn't remain away from Times Square and Sand Street and Broadway and New York. Even then she must have known. for almost irritably she shook off those who attempted to persuade her to re- main.
 She shook off studio lots and kleig lights and came back to her town to sit at bars and laugh a lit tie, perhaps and to wait with q brandy bottle in her hand
 That's what she was doing when saw her, sitting at bar with a bottle, waiting.
