 for Shutdown

 MT. and Mrs. McPherson are at the Baranof and will remain in Juneau for the next two weeks, completing their plans to go south.
 The mine shutdown is due to labor conditions, shipping condi- tions, the impossibility of buying replacements and supplies" MT. McPherson said today.
 Tt is the plan of the directors to reopen the mine at the earliest possible time after the completion of the war.
 The mine has never been in better shape than it is at present. We are leaving it in a first class state, so that it can be reopened without delay as soon as condi- tions allow. All machinery an d equipment has been taken care of to insure it's continuing in good order for the duration"

ROMANTIC FILM
 IN NEW SHOWING
 AT 10TH CENTURY
Boyer, Goddard, HaviI- land, Leads in Hold
 Back inc Dawn"

Handsome Charles Boyer, teamed with Olivia de Havilland and Paul. cite Goddard, has the most exciting romantic role of his colorful career in Hold Back the Dawn" the Para mount picture now on at the goth Century Theatre.
 Produced by Arthur Hornblow, Jr., and directed by Mitchell Leisen, the men who gave us T Wanted Wings this new excursion into high TO- nance tells story of an unmitigat- ed scoundrel, a love high-binder from the once bright spots of Europe, who tries to crash U. s. immigration barriers by marrying an unsuspect- ing American girl. How this cynical interruptions man-of- -the-world gets caught in his own trap is the story of Hold Back the Dawn"
 Suave, continental, dark eyed Boyer plays the scoundrel, with Miss de Havilland as his victim and Miss Goddard as the glamorous feminine menace. All three turn in superlative performances, accord ing to all advance reports.
 Despite the tense love story, Hold Back the Dawn" has many lighter moments to mitigate the sharpness of it's absorbing drama. Most of the action takes place in a Mexican border town, a haven for European refugees while they wait for their visas to enter the United States. Headquarters for the refugees, Boyer among them, is hotel which plays large part in the story, hotel that bids fair to steal some of the fame from Grand Hotel, a hostelry of an earlier film.
