Judge RapS
 Liquor Men
 In KetChikan

Liquor dealers in Ketchikan were given sharp censure by Federal Judge George F. Alexander this week after the grand jury had sub mitted it's report at the fall term in Ketchikan. Grand jury reeom- mended CD that the present meth of of collecting school taxes be changed so that all potential school tax payers are contacted and collec- ted from (2) that the territorial and city liquor laws be strictly en- forced, and that the vigilance of local and territorial officers be in- creased, especially now during time of war, this to apply particularly to those places of business in the so-called restricted area, and i've feel that if proper enforcement of existing laws is carried out many of the present evils will be elim- mated"
 Judge Alexander said he was i'll accord, with tue recommendations and that it had come to his notice, particularly in the case of M. L. Stepp, charged with embedding public money, that some liquor dealers were not obeying the intent of the law.
 The judge cited the fact that a large part of the $1650 MT. Stepp is charged with embedding was cerns in checks made out to him as territorial tax collector" or school tax collector"
 All but one of the checks sub- mitted in evidence had been cashed by local bars, he said. They were all cashed right around here in saloons and liquor stores" He said further, There was not a one who did not know Stepp and know he was a tax collector and that the checks were made out to him as tax collector.
 They were cashed in different places and those liquor dealers were morally if not legally guilty with him in the offense for which he is charged. They knew the condition he was in.
 "They helped him get away with that money"
 Judge Alexander also took oc- casion to cite that he depended on the various city councils to pass on the qualifications of liquor dealers and that licenses were issued by the court only after their endorse ment by the councils.

The library we have at school is one we can all be proud of. There are books of many different varieties including story books. reference books. and books on travel, litera- ture, science and innumerable other topics of great interest. We're sure all students of Wrangell high school use the library for pleasure as well as for reference work. and in or der to get the enjoyment out of the library we must keep 1t in good condition.
 When you finish reading a book don't just take it into the library and dump it on the table, but take it to the librarian and have 1t checked in, then return it to the shelf where you originally got 1t.
 If there is no librarian on duty don't check the book in yourself, but wait till there is one in the library or have the study hall teacher check it for you.
 Don't let your books get wet when you are taking them home on a rainy day but put piece of paper around them or put them under your coat. Water ruins a book quickly.
 Don't handle your books careless ly or turn down the corner to mark the place where you are reading, but handle them with care and use a little piece of paper for a book mark. The pages will stay in bet ter condition for a longer time if this is done.
 These are only a few rules for the care of your books and your library and if you carry them out along with a few other simple one we're sure you will have a nicer looking and more durable library.

Mining Device
May Relieve
Tin Shortage

PITTSBURGH, June 18-(P)
"A new mining device which
may relieve Americas shortage
Of War-important tin was an
nOunced today by Westinghouse
Electric and Manufacturing Com
pany.
G.. w. Penney, manager of
the cOmpany's eleCtro-physicS
division, said the apparatus sep
arates tin from low grade ore
found in North America.
High-grade ore in Malaga and
the East Indies yielded much Of
the nations supply, the company
pointed out, until the Japanese
irvasionS cut off imports.
The Westinghouse device,
called an eleCtro-static separator,
was announced as metallurgiStS
Of the Federal Bureau of Mines
arrived to watch a laboratory
demonstration today.
If the new device is as eff
Cient in actual mining operations
as in laboratory tests, it can be
a valuable aid in easing Ameri-
cas- tin shortage the company
said.
The separator has been tested,
the announcement added, on
low grade ore from a recently
developed tin deposit in a south
ern state.
Penney gave this description
OF its operation:
The ore is ground into parti-
cles Of sand, rock and tin. The
particles are dried, then poured
onto a rotating drum and given
charges of high voltage electrici-
ty.
Because the tin particles are
good conductors, the charges race
through them quickly and they
fall off as the drum completes
half a rotation.
The other material, still mag
netizcd, clings to the drum I'M
ill the second half Of the rota-
ton, when oppositcly charged
wires pull it off.
The separator also has refined
ores Of such metals as iron and
gold, the company said, but the
cost Of drying the ore was con-
sidercd too great TO make. the
process commercially feasible at
this time.
The device was developed by
George w. Hewitt WcSting-
house electro physicist, from
principles incorporated in an APP
paratus invented by Penney 10

Defeat Feared by Sales Tax Proponents
Horse Meat
Shortage Hits
Lions, Tigers

SEATTLE, June 1872
Woodland Parks lions and tig-
crs may find themselves facing
meat rations one of these times,
the horse situation being what it
is.
Or if there are any ldividu-
alists behind the 700 bars, we
may be hearing about the de
vclopment of leonine vegetar-
ians.
A. with most Of the priva-
tions of the times, C'est L. Gucr-
re. (And that isn't French for a
horse steak medium rare with
French frieS).
Horse meat has been the
standard fare for the zoos meat
caters, but, gasoline and tire
problems being what they are, a
horse for the boneyard is a
rarer animal these days. The
demand for draft horses is keep
ing the old ones in harness long
or and making it worthwhile to
harness the wild ones.
Supt. Gus Knudson said to-
day that the ZOO still is able to
provide its tenants with their
usual horse meat entree but he
refuses to predict how long the
supply will continue.
The cost of horse meat is one
cent a pound on the hoof. An
alternative a la carte order of
beef meat would run to 10 or
II ats. That is out of bounds
on the city budget,
If the horse meat supply fails,
the park board may have to
choose between beef or no meat
eating animals. Or the latter
may have to choose between Civ
ing up enclosed quarters - or
becoming vegetarianS.
The zoos monkeys already
have made their sacrifice for the
war effort. They surrendered to
the rubber drive yesterday the
tires they have been using for
swings.

rationed.
The war production boards
coffee quotas for July, soon to

the past two months - rs per
cent of 1871 deliveries.
Since the quotas delivered to
wholesalers and dealers govern

stores in some cases have re-
Stricted purchases to one pound
or even one-half pound per per-

have posted notices requesting
patrons not to buy more than

No serious depletion of coffee
supplies has been reported, al
though import figures have not
been made available because of
the information on shipping
which they might disclose to the
