PHILADELPHIA, Pa, June "a
Moving at a swift pace, the dele
gates attending the Republican Ma
tional Convention disposed of pre-
liminary routine at a 40-minute
session and then headed for the
real work of picking a candidate
for the Presidency
ALT Landon, 1886 Republican Pres
idential candidate, received some
cheers as he entered the convention
hall as did Gov. Arthur H. James of
Pennsylvania, and Senator Styles
Bridges, of New Hampshire. The
last two are Presidential candidates.
In rapid-fire order, the convention
gave formal vestments to the Rules
Committee, Credentials Committee,
Permanent Organization and Plat
form committees, then trooped back
down town where Wendell Willkie
boosters have a campaign going full
blast for his nomination.
There is also great activity around
the Taft headquarters.
Statements are being circulated
that Willkie will not suit many
Republicans as he is listed as a
former Democrat, utilities man and
boys newspaper editor.

WASHINGTON, June 24-Some
sections of the country, they tell
me, are laughing at other sections
for over excitement, hysteria and
fantastic anti-fifth column activity.
It's a good thing for the United
States not to lose its sense OF
humor. / don't want any of you
to get the idea that any of us
here in Washington fail to recog-
nize the gravity of the situation,
but here are some of the things
that have popped up:
On Pennsylvania Avenue the
other day, halfway between the
Capitol and the White House, two
young men appeared doing out
handbills, urging America to steer
path of peace. Before they had
been there five minutes, an angry
crowd assembled and was shout
ing: Run them out of town! Dirty
fifth columnists!' And so on. Po-
lice arrived, dispersed the crowd
and sent the frightened peace ad-
vocates" ON their way.

KETCHIKAN, Alaska, June "a
With the cannery season near and
the AF'L Alaska Salmon Purse Sein-
ers Union and Cannery Workers
auxiliary strike continuing, opera
tors attempted to land cannery
cargo last night when the south
bound North Sea locked at the
Alaska Pacific Salmon Company
which uses only trap caught fish.
The sailors refused to unload al
though there were no pickets.
Later approximately so pickets
sped to the cannery in taxis, some
going on the cannery dock.
Later last night a street fight
started between CLIO longshoremen,
whose income has been decreased
this season through inability to
handle cannery cargo, and men,
bers of the AFL seiners.
A crowd of over 100 persons, in
Guiding women of the Cannery
Workers Auxiliary, AFL, and wo-
men CLIO cannery workers, filled
the street. Fists swung before the
police arrived and dispersed the
crowd before any of the fighters
were seriously hurt
The strikers are taking vote
over Southeast Alaska to decide
whether to accept the operators
terms on the price of fish.

PLANE SERVICE
TO kETCHIKAN
STARTING HERE
Holden, Simmons, Munter
First Flight Tomorrow
on Regular Run

A regular passenger and mai
airplane service between Juneau
and Ketchikan will be inaugurated
tomorrow by Alex Holden and Shell
Simmons of Juneau and Herb Mum
ter of Ketchikan, it was announced
today.
The first plane, from Ketchikan
to Juneau, will be flown by Mum
ter. A round trip between Ketchi-
kan and Juneau to connect with
the Pacific Alaska Anyways Clipper
ship from Seattle is planned.
Arrangements for the new serv-
ice were made over the weekend
at Ketchikan. Holden and Simmons
flew there Saturday to confer with
the Aviation Committee of the
ketchikan Chamber of Commerce
and with Munter.
Situation Explained
1t was pointed out at the con-
ference that much unjust criticism
had been directed against the Civil
Aeronautics Authority for denying
the application of Pacific Alaska
Anyways for certificate permitting
it to carry passengers and mail be-
tween Ketchikan and Juneau. The
Civil Aeronautics Act and the Civil
Aeronautics Authority provide that
in return for the strict compliance
with their requirements, local
operators who have established
services must be protected against
further competition If they are to
be able to adequately serve the
public in their respective areas.
This protection is only afforded
if the local operators are adequate
ly serving the needs of the public.
Because of numerous protests
which have been made to the Civil
Aeronautics Authority, the Pacific
Alaska Anyways has filed another
application for permission to enter
the local field, and 1t is expected
by Alaska operators that when peo-
pie realize what this would do to
the local service, the protests which
have been made will be with with
drawn.
WrangelI. Petersburg on Run
Regarding the new service, Hold
en- and Simmons announced today:
I'VE are going to give Ketchikan,
Wrangell, Petersburg and Juneau
a new service which will be at
least as frequent as that furnished
by the Clipper, and on every trip
we will stop at Wrangell and Pet
ersburg, thus serving two towns
