License Regulations
 Are Deferred
Permitting Trap Licenses in Alaska 10 All Corners
 Being Stalled

WASHINGTON, Oct. l7-Senator Mons C., Wallgren, of Washington, said today he expects the War De- partment to again defer its new regulations to permit the granting of fish trap licenses in Alaskan waters to anyone who applies for them.
 Wallgren said the War Depart ment is willing to defer putting the new regulations in force until the legislation he introduced author izing the department to refuse such licenses, unless approved by the Fish and Wildlife Service, has been enacted.
 The War Department, he said, will act when formal request for a trap license is received by the De- partment of the Interior. The War Department announced last spring that it would grant fish trap li- censes to any applicant where it was shown the trap piling would not Interfere with navigation.
 The Department of the Interior, fearing such action will lead to a wild scramble for favorable trap sites, got the War Department to defer putting their regulations into effect until this month. The de- ferment is now to be extended until the new legislation becomes a law.

WASHINGTON = An armored tank carried under an airplane as an eagle carries it's prey left the realm of fancy and became stark reality when the Germans pro- duced this fearful novelty in the invasion of Crete. Now it is about to become a reality in the United States.
 In Brooklyn, New York, a me- chanism is being built for the "hook- -on" and release" whereby a tank is attached under the fu- selage of the plane, and released as the plane lands.
 The tanks crew of three rides in the tank as it is borne aloft, ana when the plane lands, the tank driver operates the release mech anism. Free of the plane, the tank 0ight type hof 1Oia tons operates independently, with cruising ra- dius of 300 miles.
 This mechanism is being devel- oped by the Armored Tank Corpor- ation of New York. It is designed to be attached to certain type oi large transport plane already in production.

GOVT. WINS
 TOLL CASE,
 FAIRBANKS
Believed Truckers Will Ap- peal Decision 10 U. 5.
 Supreme Court

The case of the Richardson Highway truckers versus the De- partment of the Interior regard ing payment of tolls on the high way, was decided against the truckers today in Federal Court at Fairbanks, according to a tele- gram received at the office of Gov. Ernest Gruening this after noon from George Folta, attorney at-large for the Department of the Interior.
 The case came into the courts recently on a joint agreement be- tween the government and the truckers, with the understanding that which ever way it was decid- ed at Fairbanks, the loser there would appeal the action to the U, s. Supreme Court.
 The bringing of the action into court ended months of near war fare between truckers and collec- tors of tolls along the highway. Since the agreement to settle the dispute in court, tolls paid by truckers have been held in escrow pending final settlement.

HAAS BARRED FROM VISITING
 BLAST SCENE
Territorial Labor Director Returns from FruitIess
 Trip to Sifka Base

Prevented by Army officials, who said the investigation into the dy- namite death of six men on a defense project on Japanski Island Sunday was strictly an Army mat ter,' Territorial Labor Director Mi- chael J. Haas has returned from Sitka without having been all lowed to visit the scene of the tragedy he said today.
 Haas, whose department is charged with the enforcement Of safe working conditions in Alaska, went to Sitka Saturday in hope os conferring with all officials con- cerned in an effort to establish better safety conditions. The Sum- day blast, which wiped out the lives of five soldiers and one ma- rine, closely paralleled another tra- gedy which occurred at Sitka Sep- tember IA, when six civilian em- ployees were killed.
 Army Matter
 T was told the investigation was strictly an Army natter Haas said. T talked to many towns people and to many workmen, but of course I'm not prepared to make any statement as to the cause of the blast or as to where the blame should fall
 Haas said he received a courte- ous reception by the Stems Drake Puget Sound Construction Com- pany, which holds the defense con- tracts at Sitka, and conferred with Cantello Strickland, safety engineer for the company.
 Strickland proved quite coopera- tive and competent" Haas said. I'm sure he knows his business and will cooperate with us in doing everything possible to prevent any further accidents"
 The Army Board of Inquiry was in session on Japonski Island yes- terday, Haas said he was informed, but he was not permitted to visit the government military reserva- tion where the blast occurred.
 Haas said he was informed of the following items concerning the tragedy:
 Material Evidence
 CD The material which explod- ed included dynamite and blasting caps, stored in wooden buildings approximately 50 yards apart.
 If that is correct, I'd like to know why, if it was impractical to store the dynamite and caps in

ORDER CLOSES. GOAL MINE AT. ANCHORAGE.

Announcement was made today by B. D. Stewart. Commissioner of Mines, of the issuance by him yes- terday of a telegraphed order pro- hibiting temporarily the continu- ance of mining operations at the Jonesville coal mine of the Evan Jones Coal Company
 This mine is in the Matanuska coal field and is the source of supply for the city of Anchorage and for the Army base at Fort Richardson. This action was taken, Stewart said, upon receipt from his representative at Anchorage, H. l.. Fiedler, of information to the ef- feet that current operations at the Jonesville mine and plant have been rendered unsafe by persistent disregard on the part of the Evan Jones Coal Company of safety or ders that have been issued by rep- resentatives of the Territorial De- partment of Mines during the past several months.
 Similar disregard of safety pre- cautions by the same mine opera tor, who was then also serving in the capacity of mine superinten- dent, resulted iii an explosion as the Jonesville mine in the fall of 1887 that took the lives of IA min CTS, Stewart declared.
 "Regrettably,' he added, the situation has developed to a point where the drastic action taken has become necessary in order to en- force the law and prevent a repe- tition of that disaster"
 Laws Disregarded
 All of the exactions contained in the orders that have been disre- garded are included in the Terri torial law governing the operation of coal mines, Stewart said. Their purpose is to provide safe and suit able working conditions for the employees of the mining company and to protect the mine plant and employees from the possible occur renee of fatal disaster, he added.
 Sudden large increases in the demand for coal at Anchorage and vicinity have necessitated nasty preparations for enlarging the mine output at Jonesyille to approxi- mately double the former normal capacity of the mine and plant. This situation introduces addition al and intensified accident hazards and requires strict adherence to all effective safety rules and meas

 Besides the cash donated, the J. B. Burford Company contributed a $4.50 ping-po set, in request for ping pong equipment for use at the barracks. The Burford company had previously donated SIP set of four boxing gloves.
