APPEAL TO BE TAKEN
 ON DECISION AWARDING BENEFITS TO NON RESIDENTS

JUNEAU, Oct. 11-Meeting of the Alaska Unemployment Compen- sation Commission has been called for next month in Juneau to hear appeal from the decision of Special Referee Henry Roden in which un- employment benefit claims amount ing to $125,00 0was ordered paid by the Commission to approximately 1000 members of the Cannery Workers Union, Local No. 5, of San Francisco who failed to work in AL aska last summer following a dis pute between the San Francisco packers and the workmen The claims had been denied on ground that a labor dispute was in progress at the time. Referee Roden ruled the labor dispute failed to exist when the packers decided to aban- don operations for the season and thus the workers were entitled to benefits.
 The Alaska Packers association, the Red Salmon Packing Go. and the Alaska Salmon Go. last spring GSLdDll6u6u which they said they would be un- able to fish When they were unable to come to agreement with the un- ions and the deadline passed the season was cancelled. They partic- ularly resisted union demands for compensation, claiming a labor dis pute existed.
 Employers are appealing because if their separate accounts with the Commission are depleted they will loes merit ratings which after 1940 will allow the amount of tax they must pay into the fund to be re- duced They now pay 2.7 percent of their payroll into the fund. The law provides for the payment to go down to as low as one percent if a favorable balance remains in the employers funds, Director Walter P. Sharpe explained.
 If the decision of the Commission is appealed from, the case will go to the District Court.
 Explaining the interest of the Commission in the case, Sharpe said the average annual collections for the unemployment compensation fund total about 955O, 1000 and that already this year, not counting the $125,OO0 is dispute, benefits total ing $500,000 have been paid out. If the Roden award is upheld the fund will be very seriously depleted Since it started operation, the Alas ka Unemployment Compensation Commission has collected $1,750, 900 and paid out $850,00O in benefits.

luncheon meeting devoted an hour and half to discussion and sugges- tions on the plan and assured city officials full support in every way in the endeavor to get Wrangell on the airways map of the north.
 In addition to the site back of Mt. Dewey, already approved by the Alaska CAA, the possibilities of Sti- kline flats for a major field were outlined, with the thought advanced that Wrangell and Petersburg both should get back of this plan in a joint endeavor Stikine flats, where the New York to Nome flight planes landed several years ago, offers a variety of sites for major field with ample room for approaches and runways. Most important, 1t is the ideal location in Southeast Alaska for short connection with the in- terior, up and down the river, and with the International Highway be- coming a reality as generally an- ticipated would afford an excellent link with the big highway.

 Japan Moves
rBy Associated Press)

WASHINGTON Oct 11-Offieial concern over the tense Far East sit uation centered anew on Shanghai
 today as the potential trouble spot, after the staying of the city's puppet Mayor, Flu siao-en. and staying of a Japanese army major. One Of the chief dangers as viewed in well in- formed but unofficial quarters was that the incident might occasion new Japanese attempts to take over the entire International Settlement. Meanwhile Japanese went forward with measures to strengthen it's Pa cific defenses as the U. S. War De- partment announced the California National Guard. an anti-aircraft rel giment, would be sent to bolster Hawaiian defenses. American nal tionals continued preparations to leave Japan. The government stopped of 10 military planes which had been sold to Thailand, al country suspected here of JapaneseI leaning toward territorial desiresI on French Indo-China.

TERRITORIAL LIQUOR
 CHIEF IN TOWN AFTER
 HURRIED TRIP OUTSIDE

J. B. Carlyle, chief liquor en- forcement officer from the liquor division of Territorial Treasurer's was in town this week, com ing up from Ketchikan on the North Coast Monday. He's making a check of licenses and other bus mess in the Southeast, while en route to Juneau after a hurried trip to Seattle where he established Mrs. Carlyle and their S-year-old son for the winter. The boy, after two year illness which confined him to bed during all that time, is much improved and is now able to movr around again although it will be another year before he will gain complete strength. The lad has sul- fered from a heart condition brought on following an attack of tonsilitls more than two years ago in Anchor age. The heart murmur has now entirely disappeared and after an other year of careful attention he is expected to be entirely well.
 People Outside are mighty war minded, reminiscent or acIual War days 20 years ago, he reports. Ship yards, airplane plants are working to capacity, few idle men anywhere, and the tempo is war-strength. Talk to anybody more than five minutes and the conversation always gets around to war fears and the inter national situation. Confidence in President Roosevelt appears to be growing and betting in Seattle, when he was there last week, was five to one that Roosevelt ould be reelected and there was no money to be had at the odds.
 Carlyle expects to go over to Pe- tersburg from here and then on to Juneau.
