Most import ant probably will be permitting sail DTS and soldiers to get resident hunting permits after one year res idence. Heretofore. the ruling has prohibited this because residence of men in the armed forces was estab- lished as that given when they en- tered the service. If the game law is amended, as anticipated. 1t will mean additional hunters in Alaska next fall, a big addition Also. the service boys like to fish. As a result you may see game fish regulations incorporated into the game laws Result for resident Alaskaus is about this: To guard against elimination of game and game fish by this vast new army of hunters and fishermen. regula tions will be frightened down. Alaskans will have to sacrifice their now rather Ienient seasons to short CT ones and limited bags just as has been the experience in the States. For example. the deer season might be shortened and the bag limit cut down. There might be such a thing as being able to take only two deer in Southeast Alaska next fall. Moose. sheep and caribou in the Westward may be sharply curtailed. There might be closed seasons on some animals entirely.
 Incidentally, if sailor and soldier resident permits are allowed. best guess is that the Buckner case. Al aska Incident of 194l". will be amie- ably settled and you won't be hear ing much more about it. probably nothing at all about courts issuing hunting licenses in the future. You'll recall that Gen. Simon Buckner. Jr.. head of the Alaska Defense Com mand, demanded residence hunting license last fall. Game Commission denied it and Judge Simon Helen thai of the Third Division ordered it issued by his [. S. Marshal in the Third. Game Commission declared il would pick up the General if he tried hunting with the disputed li- cense on grounds the game law makes no such provision. With the game law amended, the incident probably will be closed.

participate in the plan. This was
made known Monday to MI.
Veatch by Colonel Norman D.
Brophy, Personnel Chief. Colonel
Brophy said that the Field en-
ployees since June l have been
voluntarily signing up to have
1919 of their pay turned over for
the purpose of War Bonds.
This plan is nation wide in
scope. There is nothing compul-
sorry or mandatory about it. Every
person who draws a pay check
will be asked to sign a card
authorizing a deduction of 1919
from his pay check. When de-
auctions aggregate $18.75, the en-
ployees will get a War Bond from
his employer. That is all there is
to it and no employee will be
forced to sign any deduction plan.
Dayton is one of the 400 cities
in which the plan started last
Friday.

physicians now available. The
armed forces come first; then war
industries. The latter areas are
suffering acutely now, and ply
sicians should be transferred from
large cities, where there is gem
orally a surplus. They should be
commissioned just as if they were
going into the army. State barriers
now exist in the form of individual
state licensure, whereby a ply
sician licensed in New York state
cannot practice in Pennsylvania.
This archaic system should be
eliminated. Additional aids, would
be more efficient use of physicians
in the armed forces, too many
are doing clerical work. Trained
mid-wives, trained Red Cross first
aid workers could reduce the load
placed on medical men. These and
other plans could solve the dan
gerous medical shortage in a short
time.
So if your plant is not already

MGR Bond Drive?
By Robert Bennett, UE Local go

BY Robert Bennett, UE Local 8O7
On Friday, July II, the MGR
Company sponsored a meeting of
employees to promote the sales
of War Bonds. Officials of the
MGR gave interesting talks. In
~teresting only in the attitude Of
the company in looking forward
to future profits instead of the
immediate need FOR WINNING
THIS WAR!
We have no argument with the
MGR officials if they want to
gather the employees together oc-
casionally to talk over the future
of the company, but we were
under the impression that this
meeting was called to promote the
sales of War Bonds and Stamps.
At this meeting they talked of
everything else but the sales of
those Bonds. Dr.. Barr talked of
the wonderful influence the COM
pany has in Washington. Mr..
Deeds related ancient history and
sold not a single employee on
Bonds or Stamps.
Only one bright note was struck
in the entire proceedings of the
day. Harry Dreamer, much as we
dislike his utilization with the
imitation of a union hat he heads,
really made an effort to sell those
War Bonds and Stamps.
All in all it was a very pleasant
morning with the meeting serv-
ing it's purpose. That purpose was
the sale of company policies, NOT
BONDS.

Union at the Ma1leable plant. I'M
an example as to what it means t
working conditions.
In 1887, a Company Union was
set up at Malleable for the pur-
pose of blocking any attempt of
the workers to establish a legiti-
mate Union.
At the beginning of this year,
Malleable workers started an or
ganizational drive as lever before,
but this time they cleaned up all
the transformation handed out
by the Company's stooges. Last
year just before the NLRB cleo
ton, the negro workers were told,
if the UE gets into Malleable as
their bargaining agent, they, the
negro workers, would be replaced
and ruled over by the white
workers. Many of the workers at
Malleable believed this smear
against the UE, but after the
election they saw it was nothing
more than an underhand method
of the Company and it's stooges
to keep them from building a
Union by which they could get
real representation for both negro
and white workers.
The Malleable Iron workers
have been holding regular meet
ings at which negro workers from
other Dayton UE shops have
visited and told them, from their
own experience in the UE, of the
gains the negro workers have won
along with the white workers in
other UE organized plants. Many
of the Dayton Malleable workers
have read the International Con-
stitution which states: "We, the
Electrical, Radio and Machine
Workers, realize that the struggle
to better our working and living
conditions is in vain unless we
are united to protect ourselves
collectively against the organized
forces of the employers"
"Realizing that the old craft
form of trade Union organization
is unable to defend effectively the
interests and improve the condi-
tons of wage earners, we, the
electrical, radio and machine
workers, form an organization
which unites all workers in our
industry on an industrial basis
and rank and file control, regard
less of craft, age, sex, nationality,
race, creed or political beliefs, and
pursue at all times a policy of
aggressive struggle to improve our
conditions"
The Dayton Malleable workers,
under the leadership of Chief
Stewards Fred Youngerman and
E. Kennemore, have built the UE
organization which is well over
500 of signed cards, and both the
negro and white workers of
Malleable are cooperating to
complete the organizational drive.

FORMER GOVERNOR
 CURLEY MUST PAY
$500 Every Week to Bos= ton, Until He Has Settled
 Up $42,629

Boston, Jan. 12 - (UP-Former Gov. James M. Hurley of Massaa- chusetts was ordered by a district judge today to pay the city of Bos- ton a $42,629 judgment at the rate of $500 a week in connection with the allegedly illegal settlement of a land-damage suit.
 After brief final hearing of the case, Judge Bert E. Holland of West Roxbury ordered Curley to make his first weekly payment next Monday
 Curley declined to discuss the disposition order and it could not be learned immediately if he planned an appeal.
 The hearings which ended today were to determine Curley's ability to pay the judgment.
 The payment originally was of dered by Superior Judge Frederick w. Fosdick Feb. 16, 1888 when he ruled that Curley, while mayor of Boston, accepted a $3O,0O0 bribe in settlement of an illegal damage suit brought against the city by the General Equipment Corp.
 A co-defendant, Dr. Joseph San- tosuosso, recently was ordered by a court to pay $28,629 judgment at the rate of $2 week.

 The photographers tried to ge. Joe to smile for them but he couldn't make it.
 Gee, this seems like the middle of the night" the champion said.

 When the ferry arrived at Gov ernor's Island, Louis was met by Col. H. Clay Supplee and Maj. Joseph Quittner who put him in an auto- mobile and escorted him to the reg istration office. There were about 200 other draftees on the ferry and they had to walk to the registration office.

 Wachenfeld said Carr was entire ly ignorant of his wife's career, which, he said, continued after she married him and became active in affairs of his church.
 Her pastor, the Rev. Edson R. Leach said, he was amazed"
 For the past five years I have watched her doing all sorts of charitable work and in every way acting teh role of good church woman," he said. Therefore the story of her long criminal record comes as great surprise to me-"
 FBI records showed Mrs. Carr was born Amelia Mildred Everets in Philadelphia, but had used more than dozen aliases. The report showed she had served time in San Quentin, New Jersey, Pennsyl- vania and Washington State pri- sons.
