EPIC NOVEL OF
JOSEPH CONRAD
COMES SUNDAY
Fredrit March and Betty
Field Star in "vietory"
at 10Th Century

Throbbing with the fun power of
Joseph Conrads story of strange
love and exciting adventure in Java
seas, Victory, the Paramount pic
turization of the famous novel. will
open Sunday at the goth Century
Theatre.
Paramount has brought together
what may be considered a perfect
cast for this important picture.
Fredric March and Betty Field, in
the starring roles, are magnificent
in the absorbing roles assigned
them. Featured with March and
Miss Field are Sir Cedric Hard
wicke, Sig Rumann, Margaret
Wycherly, Jerome Cowan, Fritz
Field, Lionel Royce, Rafaela Otti-
ana and Chester Gan.
If anything, Conrads memorable
story has gained in the transfer
from the authors mighty pen to the
screen. John L. Balderston, who
wrote the screen play from the
novel, took few liberties with the
original story, and the film pre-
sented Sunday retains the epic
qualities that make Conrads book
immortal. They are all there, the
assortment OF strange characters,
the turbulent adventure. the heroic
fight of two people forced to kill
to prevent three sinister characters
from invading their island retreat
and destroying their love.
Texas Rangers Ride Again with
John Howard, Ellen Drew and Akin
Tamiroff, May Robson and others
in the splendid cast, will be shown
for the last times tonight.

BLOOD TYPE FILE
INCREASING HERE
A5MANY REGISTER

Registrations for the blood tipping
file of the Territorial Department
of Health have now reached to close
to the 200 mark, according to W..
c. Kennel, director of laboratories
for the Department. The file was
begun only two weeks ago, but al
ready many Juneau residents have
stopped in to have their blood types
taken and placed on record in case
of emergency.
Purpose of the file is to have
available Immediately list OF Jun
eau residents and their blood types
In case transfusions are necessary
during a war emergency. Blood
tipping is somewhat lengthy pro-
cess in the laboratory, and the
building up OF as complete file
as possible may be of inestimable
value in case of an emergency.
OF Value To All
The file will be of value TO all
Juneau residents. both In the event
they themselves may need transfu-
sions or may be needed as donors
to others.
Many lives may be saved by the
speed made possible in giving trans
fusions if blood is already typed
and on record. Because human
blood falls into four different cat
egories and all these categories are
not compatible, it is necessary to
type the blood of the donor and re-
ceiver before a TRANSMISSION may be
given. This lengthy process will be
eliminated by the file.
Everyone Eligible
All Juneau residents are eligible
to have their blood types filed. All
hey need to. do is drop into the
laboratories of the Territorial De-
partment of Health in the Terri
torial Building between the hours
Of $50 to 1920 a. m. and l to 2
p m. daily. If they desire to make
appointments before coming in,
they may telephone 466. The TAX
ing OF a sample of blood, however,
is matter of only few moments
and those being typed seldom need
to wait.
Each person typed will be given
card showing his name, address and
blood type, which he should carry
With him at all times. Then in
case Of an accident in which he
may need TRANSMISSION, great
deal OF time will be saved in CIV
ing the TRANSMISSION.

SUIT HERE AGAINST
ISLAND PHYSICIAN

Suit has been filed in United
States District Court here in which
Florence Zitz, Sitka resident, asks
1892 judgment against G. c.
Dalphond, also of Sitka.

performed an operation on her last
year and that he was not licensed
to perform the operation because
he is not authorized as physician
and surgeon under the law.
She claims that Dalphond led her
to believe that he was licensed to
perform operations at the time he
attended her, and that she suffered
rom i'll effects of the operation.
She asks recovery of the opera
ton fee, compensation for loss of
time and work while she was i'll,
medical and nurses expenses, and
pain and suffering and punitive
damages.

A TRIP TO FORT KNOX

We met at Fort Knox and later
in Washington seemed decidedly
friendly toward labor. Of course,
this might prove great deal and
then again 1t might prove very
little, for our contacts were with
only a small number, who may
have been not typical.
2-Officers and men displayed
an enthusiastic spirit and an Gag
erness to come to grips with the
enemy at the earliest time. Gone
was the lackadaisical attitude
which We are told many of the
men had manifested prior to
Pearl Harbor.
3-American tanks are good
very good. In fact, according to
our informants, our juggernauts
are far better than the best tanks
the Axis has. Naturally, the par
ticulars of the superiority of our
armored equipment cannot be
printed. We were given the data
but "off the record"
4-While what we have in tanks
is of excellent quality. we don't
have anything like enough-not
yet The Army Is confident that
we will If complacency disappears
and the American people realize
that we are up against a tough
proposition and simply have got
to turn out the tools of battle sew

In welcoming the visiting labor
editors and publicity men General

You have all heard about
Guam, where the marines and the
workingmen fought shoulder to

this is. When a bomb falls out
of the sky it doesn't care whether
it kills man in uniform or a
man in overalls. We're all the
same people, all the same kind of
people whether we're in the Army
or in the factory producing the
equipment that the Army uses.
We're all in this thing together
the whole American people. We
have got to realize that and act
accordingly"
To which We believe American
labor, as represented by the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, will
make reply thus:
Count on US! We're in this

I 2 e :. ! SE;a;Jigz; s !; ! !:

Christmas is just around the cor
ner and shopping for old Santa is
probably taking many of your spare
moments, but don't forget to save
some of them for keeping yourself
beautiful. You'll want to look your
very best for those gay parties
you're planning to attend.
For instance, take look at your
hngernails. Are they in tip-top
shape? If not, better start to work
right now.
But before you begin, let me give
you the essentials for a good home
manicure-a good, steel file, emery
board, orangewood stick, cotton,
cuticle remover, cuticle cream or oil,
polish remover, polish, and Il clear
polish base If you wish.
The file should be used when
there is much shaping to be done.
Remember to use light, quick
strokes upward to the center from
each side. Use your emery board
for minor shaping and smoothing
your nails. Never shape down too
closely at the sides. So many wom-
en- do this, and the result is rough
ened skin or hangnails and an ex-
tremely ugly shape.
After you have shaped your nails,
push your cuticle back gently with
the orange stick wrapped in cotton
and dipped into cuticle remover.
The next step is your oil or cream.
Rub it into the cuticles and let it
stay for several minutes, or longer
If you have TIE time. Then remove
the last whit of oil with a good
sudsing in mild soap and water and
you are ready for your polish.
If you have never used a polish
oase, give it a try. You have no
idea how much more beautiful your
polish will look, how much longer

APPOINT NEGRO TO
WAR LABOR BOARD
NAACP ASKS PRES.

NEW YORK - Appointment of
lat least one" competent Negro
to the War Labor Board which
will handle labor disputes for the
duration of the war has been
requested of President Roosevelt
by the NAACP, it was learned
this week.
With respect to the other men,
bers of the board the NAACP
said: May we further suggest
that all care be taken to avoid
the selection of any representative
of labor who, either through his
personal record or through aflili-
alton with a labor organization
which bars person from member
ship because of race, creed. col
or, or national origin, would be
likely to be biased in his attitude.
I'VE believe that the appoint
