CHANGES

"Therell be some changes made T So sang our very busy and efficient Police Chief George Eliason this week as he went about his usual duties. The changes we refer to are the revision of the outdated traffic code we are now saddled with. This code was drafted many years ago to apply to traffic made up of few oxcarts and dog sled or two Modernized, it will allow for the increase in traffic as we'll as speed. This is a good thing for all Sitkans. Traffic has been nov ing too fast through the streets and especially the residence streets Sooner or late. under the old code somebody child would have been hurt or killed. Then it would be too late and too bad
 We understand there will also be some changes in the present gar. bage disposal. We have no com ment other than to say that we hope the change will bring improve ment.
 At long last we are awakening to the importance of fire hazards to this community and we are ad- vised that some changes will be made m this setup-with special attention given to the Village.

WAR BONDS

We hate to continue to harp or this subject in every issue. but this thing is important. We just fin ished rea0ing an article by an Ar my Officer who was at Bataan and managed to escape from that hell hole in an American submarine From his description of the con- ditionS at Bataan and CorregidoT we are glad we are living thou sands of miles away in comparative safety. Did we say SAFETY? Well, we are safe at the moment-but we never know from one day to the next how long this feeling of security will last What are we doing about it? Why, not a thing but going along the even tenor of our respective ways and letting the other fellow do the worrying. Ev- cry day of every week and every hour of these days some of our boys are stopping that rain of death  out there on the high seas or in the jungles or on the desert and where ever they come in contact with the enemy, whether he be the little yellow-belly or the squareneaded krauteater the boys of ours take a terrible toll But we still go along and when asked to buy bonds we are told, Why, I am buying bonds. :" When we stop and take stock Of these statements we find in most cases that the alleged patriot to whom we are speaking has invested about three percent of his earn ings. Some of them go as high as five percent We may as well re- alize now that this is no nickel war nor is it dime war

SERVICE MEN AT SITKA

We sometimes stop and chat with some of the lonely looking boys we
 meet on the streets here and we got q kick out of our conversation
 with one of them recently. The first words. spoken by this chap con- vinced us that here was a lad from the deep South. Well, being nat i've of them thar parts ourselves we were instantly interested We found that his greatest ambition was to tell the world that his com manding officer was the worlds greatest fellow besides being the finest officer in the whole United States Army, and on top of all this this great man commanded the best outfit in the world This is cE stuff to US, as we were guilty of the same offense in 'l7-'18, but we were proud to find this spirit still existing in our armed forces. This spirit was what carried the boys through the mud and hell of the Argonne-put large part of the dreaded German submarine fleet on the lower half of the Atlantic, and is the same spirit that will avenge the cowardly attack on Pearl Har- bcr These kids of this particular outfit are from Alabama. We hope to meet more of them as they speak our language, so to speak.

Gas for Rivers Home
Charged 10 State,
Servants Testify
Auditor Defends Actions
In EmbezzIement Trial
Of Ex-Georgiu Governor

By the Associated Press.
ATLANTA. Nov. 26.-Three former
house and yard servants at the
Governors mansion testified last
night in the embezzlement trial of
ex-Gov. e. D. Rivers that they had
bought gasoline for automobiles kept
at the mansion and charged the
bills to the State.
Gov. Rivers is charged with en-
bezzling $66,119 from State funds
under control OF the executive.
The three, testifyins at a night
session which concluded the second
day TO the trial, said they frequently
served as chauffeur for Mr.. Rivers
when he was Governor.
Seeking to prove that cars other
than the Governors official auto
mobile had been kept supplied with
gas and tires at State expense, the
prosecution introduced number Of
vouchers and receipts, but other
than to admit signing receipts for
gasoline, one of the drivers said he
couldn't recall specific purchases.
Earlier in the day, State Auditor
B. E. Thrasher, jr., defended his
departments action in approving
funds for the upkeep of the execu-
tive mansion. After stating that
$3.50 weekly payments to Mrs. Rivers
had been approved, Mr.. Thrasher
asserted that every administration
since the mansion was bought in
1882 had obtained State funds for
upkeep.
He cited sections of the code un-
der which he approved such pay
ments and then added that other
administrations had charged such
items as flowers, oil and gasoline to
the State.
AS far as he knew, Mr.. Thrasher
said, Gov. Rivers never saw or
passed on any bill paid by the exec
utive department. His bonded exec
utive secretary was responsible for
all such disbursements, the auditor
added.
Considerable testimony was given
on the upkeep of the Governors
mansion. Special Prosecutor James
A. Branch then established, through
questions, that before Gov. Rivers
regime, bills for the mansion were
itemized, in 1884 for S4,515 33 and in
1885 for $2,4O0, as compared with
$1,000 paid Mrs. Rivers for each year
of her husbands four-year tenure.
Mr.. Thrasher said that former
State Auditor Tom Wisdom had ap-
proved such items as purchases of
flowers, Christmas cards, oil and
gasoline and that the first auditor
to disallow such expenses was Zach
Arnold, Rivers appointee.
He added that when Rivers was
advised of the disapproval, he reim-
bursed the State on two ocasions,
once to the extent of $1.320.05 and
once for $1,225 90, both instances be-
ing in 1910.

Judgment Asked in Case of Waterbury Trust COn-
 pany vs Heirs of David Porter Estate

Attorney John D. Thoms was ap- pointed by Judge John Rufus Booth fin superior court this morning to serve as counsel for incorporating defendants in the action brought by the Waterbury Trust Co, as trustee of the estate of David C.. Porter, against the heirs of MT. Porter. The action followed a mo- ton presented by Attorney David Torrance for a judgment against the ron-appearing heirs.
 The litigation was brought by the bank to determine if trust fund left by MT. Porter for the use of 8 school for boys and girls. could be used for state trade school. The General Assembly stipulated that the City of Waterbury must pro- vide the building for trade school for wAich an appropriation of $780, GOO has been made, but the city has not been able to raise the necessary funds.
 MT. Torrance told the court sev- eral of the heirs could not be lo- cated despite extensive efforts to serve them with papers. Judge Booth said the matter was of im- portance and ruled against judg- nnent against the incorporating heirs. He said further 1t would be protection for the plaintiff if they were represented by counsel.
