PRACTICE ALERT
 LAST EVENING K
 SATISFACTORY ONE

Last evenings practice Alert was quite satisfactory, reported the Ju- neau Civilian Defense Council to- day
 Some l50 members attended, in- cluding representative from the Chaplain, Rescue Workers, Auxil- iary Police, First Aid, and Air Raid Wardens corps.
 A few violations of Alert regula- tions occurred, but generally a very fine degree of cooperation existed
 At the Councils meeting, follow ing the Alert, Glenn Allen was ap- pointed Acting Chief of Auxiliary Police during the absence of Walter P. Scott from the city, and Lew Nunamaker was appointed Ser geant of Air Raid Warden Squad No. 3A replacing Robert Burns who has joined the Coast Guard Auxiliary Corps.
 Camflauging of oil tanks on Cas- tineau Channel was discussed, and the Council is seeking authoritative information as to the necessity.
 At future practice Alerts attend ance of First Aiders will be report ed direct by their Captains to the head of the First Aid Corps at Tel ephone 88, instead of as in the past through Air Raid Sergeants to the control station TIP.

DRAFTING OF FATHERS IS

Orders Issued by War De- parfment for Extension
 of FurIoughs

WASHINGTON, May 14-Draft- ing of fathers for military service in the immediate future appears likely as the Army today notified Commanding Generals in all nine Service Commands to extend the furlough period for new inductees from seven to fourteen by July l and to three weeks by September l.
 The War Department did not give any reason for the extension except that in many cases of only a week furlough hardships were worked.
 It is, however, understood the actual reason is the belief that the heads of families require more time to make arrangements for their families and wind up their business affairs
 It was recalled that Brig. Gen. Louis B. Hershey, Director of Se- lective Service, told the House Committee recently that i've will have to induct fathers by August l or sooner to meet the need for 2,500,000 more men for the armed forces"

Soils Discussed ByMr. HoIbrook
 Al Garden Meei

Addressing members of the Ju- ncau Garden Club yesterday We'll man Holbrook discussed garden -oil and fertilizers, first explaining succintly the composition of the soil and the plant needs that can be supplied by fertilization.
 All plants need 10 chemicals and some more, he said, of these, four are constant. in the soil. three can be acquired from the air Ccarbon, oxygen and hydrogen) and three can be supplied by man.
 These three in the proper balance are necessary for perfect plant growth and include nitrogen, phos- phorus and potassium. Barnyard manure, MT. Holbrook recommend ed as the best all-round fertilizer for all types of soil, as it makes clay soil more friable and sandy soil more humus, as well as hold ing the elements and chemical compounds the plants need. He re- commended peat as one of the best applications for providing humus.
 Lime is a soil modifier and sweet ener, MT. Holbrook reminded his listeners, and not a fertilizer, al though it does assist in breaking down organic matter and making it o i1o l,la for ,,la,,t i1cn

APPEAL MADE TO GOVERNOR BY FISHERMEN

For the purpose of working ou problems of trollers in this par of the country who are dissatisfied with prices they are getting 10 their catch, delegation of fisher. men petitioned yesterday for assis- tance through Gov. Ernest Gruen- ing.
 Accompanied by John Wiese. secretary of the Alaska Fishermen Union. here from Cordova, the fol lowing trollers called at the Gov ernors office to voice their pro- test Emil Vienola, Norman Rustad, Doc Silvers, L. c. Geiger and Car. Weidman.
 It was stated that the same prices are given the fishermen here as those in the Puget Sound area and that the local trollers are, in addition, required to pay charges for freighting their fish to the states The protest was well taken by the Governor who wired the Office of Price Administration in Washington, D. C., for action in the matter.
 The local OPA has been given no jurisdiction in regard to fish prices here, all such business IS handled through the Seattle oi- flee, it is understood. Due to this situation, aid to the fishermen has been slowed up considerably, and in order to speed action. GoY. Gruening appealed by wire direct ly to Washington. D. c.

The W ashingto ion Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON (Major Robert & Allen on active duty)

WASHINGTON. = There was { lot that didn't meet the eye behinc Secretary Knox's statement that he was wrong, after all, and the Truman Committee right about our stupendous shipping loss of l,000,- GOO tons per month-greater than all the ships built by us and the British last year
 A lot of by-play took place back stage before Knox made his cor rection. Some Senators are now wondering whether, if things like this are fumbled, there isn't en- tjrely too much fumbling with other things lot more precious thar public regulations.
 Here is the inside story of what happened:
 Before publishing it's report, the Truman Committee sent five copies to Secretary Knox and his chief admirals, also to Admiral Emory Land of the Maritime Commission All were notified that unless there was objection to the report it would be published in three days. In ad- dltion, a representative of the Navy was allowed to read the report sev- eral weeks in advance and make any suggestions.
 After the report was published however, Admiral R. S. Edwards assistant to Vice Admiral Fred Horne, of Naval Operations, wrote q memo for the Secretary of the Navy raising objections to the Tru- man Committees report.
 KNOX SOUNDS OFF
 Secretary Knox happened to have Edwards memo on his desk just ten minutes before a press confer ence. And without consulting press adviser Capt Leland Lovette, he proceeded to sound off to news men about the inaccuracy of the rraman Committee and it's esti- mates on shipping losses.
 What Knox didn't know was that he had in his own files copy of the Truman Committee report sent well in advance, and to which he had made no objection. Also he didn't know that the Truman Con- ruittee had secured it's submarine disaster figures from the War Shin ping Administration, which has good reason to know what the loss es were, because it's ships were sunk, and it builds replacements Finally the Truman Committee had a letter from Admiral Land certi- flying the accuracy of its figures.
 So after reading Knox'S blast, the
