Damage Slight In Cafe Fire

Fire, starting on the outside of the building from unknown causes, damaged the Coney Is- land cafe late Tuesday evening. but was extinguished before it gained headway or had a chance to spread to buildings on each side of it in the restaurants downtown location.
 The fire was discovered by Mrs. James Pierce, owner of the Town Club west of the Coney Is- land, on her way from the club to the living uual ters in the rear of the bu lding. MT. Pierce grab bed a fire extinguisher and ran out a side door and he said at that time the flames seemed o be in some trash under and a. round the back steps. He had the flames almost subdued when the extinguisher went dry.
 First knowledge of the fire in- side the cafe came when Miss Loveis Griffin, only employee on duty, saw smoke drifting in on the floor of the back store room and gave alarm to the customers.
 The siren sounded at 10:ll and the first truck to respond got the first water on the building from the hydrant by Sis's place. The other truck was stationed at the Dell cafe stump and water was also drawn from the fire hydant by Wodlinger's drug store.
 Just before water was brought the Town Club to the rear of the cafe flames spread cross and caught underneath the club and people began carrying furniture and clothing from the Pierce apartment, but the flames were quickly subdued and within half an hour all of the fire was completely extinguished. The en- tire interior of the restaurant was water-soaked. There was no dam age to the Kodiak Recreation Parlor located few feet east of the cafe.

Two Firms Interested Nm Kodiak

The best news yet on progress
 toward a cold storage plant and post war possibilities for Kodiak was reported at the Chamber of Commerce meeting Thursday night, when R. H. Chadwick, chairman of the Industries Con- mittee, told members that both the Juneau Cold Storage Co. and the New England Fish Go. are definitely interested in projects for this city. One project holds promise for the immediate fut- ure, the other must wait until the end of the war, according to direct word from the parties concerned.
 A wire from Wallis s. George, president of the Juneau Cold Storage Co.,, said: "Messers. Dudley and AtweIl, who are at present in Juneau representing the Austin Construction Go. in connection with a 3-miIlion| pound enlargement to our Jun- eau plant, will go to Kodiak within two weeks to make inves- tigations as to proposed cold storage as to site, power, and water and gather all inform alton desired in connection with construction {"
 In this connection the Cham Der is now making 8 survey of sites so such information can be readied for their arrival
 Mir George added that later m the season he will make a trip here to see "what can be worked out for financing construction"
 The second word came from the New England Fish Co re- garding waterfront land they own in Kodiak. It said: i've in- tend to improve this property lust as soon as conditions war rant, which necessarily cannot be until the end of the war.
 We have not changed our mind and are definitely interest ed in a fishing operation at Kod- iak and our tentative plans con template an operation which we think will be a great asset to the town"
 The letter was signed by o. 6ergseth general superintendent.
 This encouragement for the future of Kodiak came directly | as the result of spadework of the aewly reorganized Chamber of Commerce, which pledged on Iorming to work actively toward orlnging new projects to this Area.
 The Chamber appointed Mrs. Claire Seltzer as secretary re- alaeing Howard Keeler, and ad- ourned following a discussion of he communications.

)oring Robber Of Schultz Safe Convicted

Anchorage - Edward Alvin Tacopetti was convicted of the theft of the William Schultz safe after the jury deliberated shortly mere than an hour.
 Anchorage (SpeciaD - Alvin E. Iacopetti denied he stole 500 pound safe containing more than $30,000 in cash and $500O in jewelry at Kodiak when he was arraigned in the federal dis trict court on a larceny indict- ment Tuesday, May 2.
 The life savings of MT. and Mrs. William Schultz were stolen when the safe was re- moved from the kitchen of their apartment behind the Ships Tavern while the family was out to dinner Oct. 2l, 1942, Mir and Mrs. Schultz and daughter, Sally Pearl, testified oD the opening day of the Iacopetti trial last Friday.
 Witnesses sad the safe was rolled out of the kitchen door and apparently loaded into an automobile in an alley behind the apartment.
 Removal of the safe was dis covered when Mir. Scf 1ltz re- turned home after dining in downtown Kodiak. He reported it to police at once. Mrs. Schultz and daughter were at dinner at an inn on the highway out of Kodiak and did not hear of the robbery until later,
 A heavy rain at this time washed out automobile tracks so it was impossible to trace the movement of the thlef's auto only a short distance, Mir Schultz said.
 Iacopetti took the stand ln his own defense Saturday morn- ing and denied the statements of the governments witnesses that he had any connection with the safe robbery. He disclaimed knowing some of the men who told of his alleged activities.
 Pvt. Carl E. Robinson of Fort Richardson, who was a cab driver in Kodiak at the time of the robbery, testified that Iaco- petit told him of his plans to steal the safe two weeks before it disappeared.
 Edgar Gordon Beatty, room mate of Iacopetti at the time, said that Iacopetti told him Pm as hot as a firecracker" the day after the safe disappeared. He also claimed that Iacopetti asked him to rent house out side the city for use as aplace to open the safe.
 MT. Schultz identified 8 patched and marked five dollar bill, which was passed by Iaco- petit in beer parlor, as one which he kept as a souvenir. It was marked with the names of Tommy, Tex and Louis, the bar tenders Tn the Ship's Tavern It

Vice President Wallace discovered

none of its traditional devotion to
its rules and precedents.
Just before the Senate voted to
abolish the revolving fund of the
Tennessee Valley Authority the
Vice President took issue with some
of the Senators over the parlia-
mentary status of such an amend
ment in an appropriations bill, and
was cverridden on roll call vote,
46 to II.
The Senate then went on to abol-
ish the revolving fund, 80 to 26.
The incident recalled the expert
ence of Charles G. Dawes, who
entered the Office of Vice President
with zeal to streamline Senate
rules, but he left Office with the
rules about as he found them.
