Offer Three-Yedr
Crop Insurance

by signing federal all-risk
crop insurance contracts before
Aug. 81, 1912 Big Horn county
farmers will be assured of at
least a rs per cent of normal
wheat crop IN 1913, 1914 and
1945," George Miller, chairman
of the county triple-A commit
tee states.
The three-year contract now
available is a new feature of
this. years program which also
a graduated rate scale plan of
premium determination. Under
this plan premium rates are
established that reflect the
crop losses in the various yield
groups of the county as a whole.
BY establishing a uniform prem
ium rate for all farms of the
same type and yield in the
county, the federal crop insur-
ance corporation has made an
other valuable addition to the
crop insurance program, Mr..
Miller states.
Premium rates were formerly
established on the basis of in
dividual losses and farmers who
suffered severe losses through
no fault of their own conSe-
quently paid higher premium
rates than farmers with sim
liar yields and smaller losses.
Yields are established on the
basis of soil type, topography,
individual farming operation
and individual history. The
graduated premium rate sched-
ule is determined from a sum-
mary of the losses in the vari-
GUS yield groups.
"By projecting wheat crops
with federal all-risk crop insur-
ance, farmers are assured of
the necessary income to con-
tinue their farming operations
regardless of hail, drought, in
sects, disease and all other un-
avoidable hazards" Miller says.

A recent donation of 81 900 worth
OF books to the city from the Car

Married Men,

Instructions

Gov. Ernest Gruening announced
today that all married men regis
tered for Selective Service must
Immediately give written notice to
their local board if their wives are
employed. Such notice to the local
board should state the nature Of
the wife's employment, whether
permanent or temporary, and the
amount earned per month.
The Governor also advised all
Selective Service registrants of the
necessity of Immediately reporting
to their local board any change of
address and any change in work
or physical condition.
Because the Nation is now at
war, Selective Service regulations
and requirements are rapidly being
changed, the Governor stated. This
has necessitated the reclassifying
of a tremendously large number of
registrants. Not knowing of these
changes many individuals have in
quired as to the reason for the
change in their classification. These
changes are being made in lire
with directives from Washington,
and any registrant who believes
that he has been improperly clas-
sified should consult with the Gov
eminent Appeal Agent for his 10
cal board.

ka S Only Woman Leg
isIator, Writes

In connection with the recent 4s
percent increase in freight anc
passenger rates put into effect by
the Alaska Steamship Company
nd Northland Transportation
Company, with the sanction of the
United States Maritime Commits.
sion, Mrs. Crystal Snow JENNIE, tht

The communication follows:
Juneau, Alaska, January Is, 1912
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt,
The White House,
Washington, D. C.
My dear Mrs. Roosevelt:
Some member. or members of tbs
U. S. Maritime Commission have
made very serious mistake which, il
uncorrected will bring serious anc
far-reaching difficulties, if moi
complete ruin to the city of Juneau
and all other towns in South
eastern Alaska.
AS the only woman member OF
the Alaska Territorial Legislature
and pioneer resident, I would fee
myself poor representative of the
people were to do less than voice
a protest against the 49, "emer-
gency surcharge" which the Alaska
Steamship and other transportation
companies have recently been per-
mitted to levy on Southeast Alaska
freight and passenger rates.
am in hearty accord with the
views of Governor Gruening as
expressed in the enclosed copy Of
letter from him to Alaska's Hon.
orable Delegate to Congress, An
thony j. Dimond
OF course there cannot be enough
hours in the day for you to ac-
complish all the things you have
to do, but 1 have confidence thai
you will help to find some way
for adjustment wherever injustice
and suffering can be prevented
and l ask that you lend assistance
in airing this matter for the gooc
of Alaska.
Sincerely yours,

BIGGEST Problem Is Finan(-
ing Of Purchase, City
Attorney Reports

A trio of letters is due to go out
from the office of Mayor Harry I
Lucas today, pointing toward more
information about the possible pur-
chase of public utilities by the city.
Mayor Lucas was instructed to
write the letters last night after
the city council had listened to a
report by City attorney Grover G.
VIM on the ACCESSIBILITY of pur-
chasing the light and power and
water companies.
One of the Mayors letters will

Anthony j. Dimond, asking him to

ing funds through some Federal
loan agency for the utility purchase.
Another letter will be addressed to
an agent in municipal bonds, ask
ing what chances Juneau city bonds
would have of finding buyers if
such bonds are floated for the pur-
chase of the utilities.
Another letter Will be addressed
TO Burns and Mcdonald Engineer

questing information on the cost
of a survey and appraisal of the
utility holdings which may be pur-
chased.

utilities are willing to sell if an

NO ACTION
ON BU(kNER
ORDINANCE
General Wants Serving Of
Liquor 10 Service Men
Limited Here

War and civilian defense brushed
shoulders with city business in
three matters brought up before
the city council here last night.
The councilmen deferred action
on request wired here from
Ma jor- General Simon B. Buckner,
chief of the Alaska Defense COM
mand at Fort Richardson. Buckner
asked that an ordinance be passed
prohibiting the sale of intoxicating
liquor to men in uniform and in
the armed forces of the nation,
except between pm. and 10 pm.
The request for the ordinance
was included in a wire received
last night by Gov. Ernest Gruen-
ing. 1t was declared that similar
laws are being put in effect in all
Alaska cities But Juneau council
men wondered whether they would
be permitted to pass a law dis
eliminating against a certain class
of tavern customers and refused
to take action until after further
investigation,
BIackOut Question
The matter of blackouts reared
its ugly head when Frank Metcalf,
local civilian defense chief, asked
for the reaction of the council to
the proposal OF the defense board
that all neon signs be turned off
after midnight and that other
steps be taken to cut down the
illumination from Juneau at night.
Personally, I think every time
we do any of these blackout stunts
the people get more jittery and
there is more talk about leaving
town. Mayor Lucas declared. It
believe in being ready to protect
ourselves in event of a real emer-
gency, but when there is no imme-
date danger I believe we should
keep our city activity as. nearly
on normal pitch as possible"
The councilmen generally agreed
with these sentiments.
For Rescue Work
Again the civilian defense ques-
ton arose as Ed Krause asked for
city appropriation of not to ex-
coed $500 to purchase equipment
for the defense units demolition
and rescue squad
Il want to buy some equipment
that hope we never need, but
want to know it is handy if we do
need it," Krause declared
Much of the equipment needed
may be secured from the city street
department, it was determined,
while other equipment on the
Krause list may be borrowed from
the Forest Service Krause and
Mayor Lucas arranged to talk with
Forest Service officials in the near
future regarding use of these items
in event of an emergency.
Only equipment on Krause's list
it was definitely certain must be
purchased are several pairs of as
