Russian Troops Pour Into Runania While
 Carol Pleas To Hitler
(By Associated Press

Red Army troops marched into Rumania today in another faee-lift- ing operation on the map of Europe as the little Balkan nations King Carol desperately appealed to Hitler for help throughout the night.
 With two other Balkan countries .snapping at his heels, Carols gov .ernment rushed the bulk of It's two million Rumanian troops to the Hungarian border in the province of Pennsylvania to stave off further territorial losses.
 Official quarters in Bucharest said they were informed Hitler had sent a telegram 10 Joseph Stalin asking the Soviet dictator to meet Rumauia half Way
 The Russian troops were heavily reinforced by tanks and planes and poured across the Rumanian border shortly after dawn. They occupied four cities in ceded provinces of Bessarabia and Buchoyina. King Ca rol had yielded in principle two hours before to Russian ulti- matum
 By contrast there was 10 taper ing off of Hitlers ambitions in the war with Great Britain. Authorized sources in Berlin stated Germany's reply to any peace feelers from Lon don is "eannons are speaking" The British already have denied any peace oyertures
 The struggle is marked by new German air raids over the British Isles and the torpedo sinking of heavily-laden 8O00-ton German transport by a British submarine off the south coast of Norway.

STRIKE OVER; SEWERS, CANNERY
 WORKERS AGREE

Following the lead of Wrangell seiners and cannery workers, as an- nounced in The Sentinel last week, all AFL seniners in southeast Alaska have agreed to the offer made by the packers and the cannery workers auxiliary has accepted the 1889 wage scale, subject to whatever higher scale may later be set by the industry for the season.
 Tickets have been called from the lines at all canneries and work is proceeding with the strike at an end.
 Under the agreement, seiners will get 81a cents for pinks, 91a for chums, 20 for echoes and 30 for reds. The 1889 scale for cannery workers provided for a guarantee of 150 hours. This year they de- manded a guarantee of 200 hours and an increase of 10 cents an hour. The agreement accepted by the cannery workers is retroactive and should an increase be established by the industry as a whole, the can nery workers will receive that scale for the season.
 The final agreement was reached this week in Ketchikan following the action in Wrangell last week.

ENGLAND PREPARES FOR OFFENSIVE

LONDON, June 26 - Great Bri- tain, already prepared to defend herself against invasion, was told by her leaders today that the time is coming when the order will be changed from hold fast to flor ward"
 It seems increasingly clear that the important French fleet and field units would fight on England's side
 The second promise from a gov ernment member that there would be an offensive effort came from Herbert Morrison, minister of sup ply, in a report to the House of Commons which later held a secret session to consider his words. The minister declared: We must think of long term policies and offensive as we'll as defensive policies.
 War Minister Anthony Eden earl fer had forecast the day when the tide of offense would turn.
 French General Charles Degaulle worked with a growing staff to form a French legion and to set up a political French national eom- mittee to coordinate French policy,

Allen Lee Killed In Tragic Plane
 Accident, Juneau

Allen Lee. son of Mr and Mrs. Harold Lee, prominent Petersburg family, was killed in Juneau yester- day when he was struck by the prop eller of Jimmy Rineharts plane at the float in Juneau. Lee had gone to the capital city with Rinehart who had just returned to Petersburg Wednesday from the States with his newly overhauled plane, yesterday and, according to report here, they were just getting ready to take off for a return to Petersburg when the fatal accident occurred.
 Aliens mother was on the Denalf last night from the States and was met here by MT. Lee. who flew over from Petersburg with Pilot Tony Schwamm to break the tragic news The couple continued on home to Petersburg on the Denali
 Young Lee was widely known here as well as in his home town. He was a cousin of Eilert Holbeck and was especially popular with the younger set both here and in Pe- tersburg.
 According to word from Peters burg, Rinehart and Lee were taking off from Juneau yesterday morning when Rinehart experienced motor trouble and came down, taxing into the small boat harbor. Lee sprang onto the pontoon to tie the plane. Rinehart warned him to hang back until the propeller stopped. Lee went ahead, however, according to the re- port. The moving blade hit him on the head, killing him instantly. An inquest was held in Juneau, and a verdict returned of accidental death.

Air Shuttle
 Service Starts
 In Southeast

Shuttle mail service between Ketchikan and Juneau with stops at Wrangell and Petersburg was start ed this week by Pilot Herb Mnter of Ketchikan and Pilots Shell Sim mons and Alex Holden of Juneau The service. they announced, was to connect with the tWice-weekly AL aska Clipper runs from Seattle. Hol- den flew the first flight Tuesday The three pilots under the name of the Alaska Air Transport and Marine Airways have filed an ap- plieation with the Civil Aeronauties Authority for a certificate of con venienee and necessity to continue service. At the same time there is pending before the CAA from Pan American Airways a similar appli- cation for the connecting link from Ketchikan to Juneau The Clipper has no certificate to carry mail or passengers between the two towns. Hearing on the applications is scheduled to come up in Washington on July 15.
 In the meantime. support is be- ing asked of Wrangell and Peters burg by the Juneau-Ketehikan pilots of their application Requests have been made to the Chambers of Com merce and the City Councils. EX- pression so far from both towns has been based on the query what Is to become of the air service now serving Wrangell and Petersburg by Pilot Tony SchWamm?' This service, it was pointed out by several spokes- man, has been of great benefit to the two communities for the last two years and it's elimination by forced competition from the other towns would work a severe handi- cap on Wrangell and Petersburg from the viewpoint of. air service.
 Pilot Munter while here the first of the week said their service would in no way conflict with the Peters burg Air Service. No word has come from Pan American as to it's plans for the route. Pilot Schwamm was non-committal Heretofore, Pilot Bob Ellis of Ketchikan has flown the mail from Ketchikan to Wrangell where it was picked up by Pilot Schwamm for Petersburg. Schwamm also hops here for mail for Peters burg coming on steamers stopping here but missing Peterburg, and brings mail from Petersburg. This service has been of great benefit to the business of the two towns, spokesmen pointed out

$18,OOO Expended In Enlargjng
 Cold Storage

With the reception of installing 55 additional locker boxes which will be done in the next 30 days, Cold Storage is virtually completed. according to Manager H. H. Hunger ford.
 The plant. enlarged this spring lat a cost of approximately $18,000, now has a capacity of one million pounds. practically trebling it's for mer size. Two new cold rooms, one wit ha capacity of about 500,000 pounds and another near 250.000 pound capacity, are finished and the larger one is already in service.
 The addition of 55 new locker boxes will give 75 locker boxes, be- lieved sufficient to supply the com mUnity. Heretofore, only 20 were in service.
 The new Cold Storage enterprise on Mccormack Dock property meant a layout of approximately $7,50O for the Mccormack Dock and around $10.0O0, aside from some minor additional expenses which in all will bring the total outlay for providing Wrangell with a modern up-to-date cold storage plant to around $18,OO0. Mr Hungerford pointed out.
 Much of the new space already is in use and all of it will see service soon as the demand for space had long been heavy. Later, MT. Hunger ford plans to insulate additional space with the aim of entering the fresh fish markets of the States
