 Secretary of Alaska E. L. (Bobl Bartlett will be Acting Governor h ais absence.
 Pcs.poncmcnt Suggested
 The Ottawa meeting is scheduled Q begin January l5, but the Gov arnor received 8 telegram yester- day from Rep. Warren G. Magnu- sen, a United States member, say ing he was endeavo1ing to have the session postponed for 10 days If the meeting is postponed the Gov ernor will go first to Washington in- stead Of directly to Ottawa as he planned.
 Governor Crushing said he would attend the budget hearings for all agencies having offices in Alaska and would make determined effort to see that appropriation are large enough to insure progress in the Territory.
 To the statement of the President indicating that most appropria tions except these for national defense would be held to minimum, the Governor remarked that though the large defense expenditures would be of undoubted benefit to Alaska, the benefit would be decidedly 'spotty'' in its effect, helping Sitka, Kodiak, Fairbanks and perhaps several other localities, but not aiding the Terri tory as a whole.

RIGHTS OF MEN
 TOBE PROTECTED
Those Entering Military Service Must Have At-
 tOrneys Supplied

Judge Alfred c. Baldwin, follow ing a rule suggested by a judicial committee which met recently, has taken steps to protect the rights of men entering the military forces of the United States. In the future, in cases involving motions for default judgments in divorces, foreclosures, and the like, the plaintiff will have to file motions asking for appoint. ment of an attorney for the defend- ant and will also have to file an affi- davit that the defendant is or is not under arms.
 Several affidavits were filed in un- contested divorce actions yesterday, although appointment of counsel for the defendant will probably be lim- tied to a motion to that effect.
 The rule was suggested by a com- mittee consisting of Judge Patrick B. O'Sullivan, Judge John Rufus Booth, and Judge Kenneth Wynne, of the superior court.

BY ELMER c. WALZER Limited Press Financial Editor

New York, December T. - tUP)- Trading on the stock market this week receded to a pace of a little more than a half million shares daily. the lightest since the week ended October 12.
 Prices fluctuated narrowly. Aver ages registered minor declines in the industrial and railroad categories and small gain in the utilities.
 Principal Influence was war un- certainty. Tax selling and selling to raise funds to pay the December 15 tax ifstallment also played a part. Market experts anticipated a better market after mid-lnonth.
 Whatever features developed were in preferred stocks, a few special issues and a handful of low priced shares. Commonwealth and South ern, selling at 75 cents a share, had tremendous turnover nearly 19 per cent of all business done - on Wendeetaoh-v aoinshdrlucmfwyp Wednesday. Next day and on Fri day, Lehigh Valley Coal, selling at 50 cents a share, was a feature.
 Bonds fluctuated narrowly and, on average, showed minor gain. Commodities receded slightly.
 Business indexes showed record high levels for industrial production. Christmas trade got off to a good start and retail trade as whole was ' to 10 per cent over year ago.
 Steel ingot production on ton- mage basis broke all records. Au- tomobile production held at a high level - 124.790 cars and trucks for the week, against 128,783 in the previous week and 115,488 in the corresponding week of last year.
 Construction continued to stand out. For the week, heavy building amounted to $110,503,000, against $S9 303 900 ill the previous week, and $S7,739.OOO for the 1939 week.
 The American Iron and Steel Insti- ute reported steel ingot production for November at 6,2S2.824 net tons, record for the month and the second largest month in the his tory of the industry. The largest was October of 1940 when output was 6,461,B ,B98 tons.
 Electricity output for last week broke all previous records at 2.795,- 634000 kilowatt hours, up 10.1 per cent as compared with year ago. Coal production at 9,7OO,OOO tons exceeded the previous week and a year ago.
 CarloadingS receded moderately, but the total of 728,525 cars was
