"REAp THE WILD
 WIND" IS FILM
 ON AT TWENTIETH
Great Teehnilolor Epic Is Showing on Four-Day
 Run in Juneau

The incredible Cecil B. DeNfille has done it againl His Reap the Wild Wind" opened last night at the 20th Century Theatre in the full blaze of Technicolor and, in the DeMille tradition, it immed- lately established itself as hit.
 While acting honors go to the trio of stars, Ray Midland, Paulette Goddard and John Wayne, the main credit must go to DeMille himself. It bears his unmistakable touch" which only the Old Mas ter himself is able to impart to a picture.
 Reap the Wild Wind" is a tale told in bold, heroic strokes of Am erica's fight to rid the Florida Keys of piratical wreckers who preyed on the lifeline of her windjammer merchant marine in the 1840's. De- Miles 66th picture under the Para mount banner, the present truly great film need make no obeisance to any of its predecessors. It out strips them all for grandeur of conception, startlingly beautiful photography and excellence of story. It's great drama any way you look at it.

GRAFT WORK OF ESkIM0S CAN'T
 MEET DEMAND

While many natives in the far north are still busily carving ivory, weaving baskets and making mllh luks, parkas and other articles for sale through the Arts and Crafts Division of the Office of Indian Affairs, production is far below the demand, according to H. w. Star ling, Director of the Arts and Crafts Department, who returned this week from trip to Nome and other sections in the north where this work is done.
 MT Startling was away for eight weeks and visited Fairbanks, Nome, Shishmaref, Teller, Wales, White Mountain as well as Anchorage, Eklutna and Seward. Much of the time was spent in waiting for transportation and on several oc- casions it was necessary to wait a week before he was able to get plane transportation to continue to his next stop, MT. Starling said. Tt it definitely a time when no one should travel through Alaska un- less business requires it." he said.
 In many places MT. Startling found the natives engaged in de- fense work which is more lucrative than ivory carving and in others he found natives inducted into the Army while some who formerly had not done much work for commer- cial purposes, were engaged in craft

1 leonard Hall Addresses Chamber of Commerce
 of Subject Today

Leonard Hall, supervisor of USO activities in Alaska, told members of the Juneau Chamber of Com merce today that it will be some little time yet" before @ USO proj- ect will be established in Juneau and that the need is greater in Sitka than here.
 Within 35 days, however, USO director will be on the job here, he said, in temporary headquarters with temporary equipment. He said that the American Legion Dugout will be used along with the top floor of the old A-B Hall which the Army has taken over.
 Hall spoke of the difficulties of shipping in connection with get ting equipment to Alaska and said that new angle may be tried which may eventuate in receiving more support from a newly devel- cped direction"
 The USO representative pointed out that the service men in South east Alaska "are in clover" com pared to those serving in other more advanced positions and in areas where native rum is cheaper than our beer, where soldiers take few snorts of it and poke a col onel in the eye.
 Hall gave brief history of the USO and said that there are ap- proximately $50 operations at pres ent, 55 of these in the overseas division which includes Alaska. The USO now has operations in Ketchi- kan, Seward, Anchorage and Fair banks in Alaska.
 Earl McGinty, of the Federal Works Agency, also was a guest at the noon meeting in the Baranof Hotel and spoke briefly.
 The Rev. Walter Soboloff was welcomed back.
