4. J. WAGE DISPUTE
 MAY PROVE TEST CASE

SEATTLE The National War Labor Board is being asked this week to take appropriate action in the dispute ease Of the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company, as d result of a resolution passed by the I2th Regional War Labor Board ill an executive session. Dr. George Bernard Noble, board chairman dis closed this week.
 The board informed the nation al board is previous actions in the case had been according to proper procedure. It was decided that the issue of retroactive pay. which the compahy insisted last week was not properly before the board, was q paIu of the wage dispute issue, and was within the boards juris- diction Records on the case have been dispatched to Washington. which outline the regional board s prior actions.
 The company closed the mining operation after the regional board iuu q W al ucu NOuulOu 1dDOl wage rate of go cents and other rates in proportion. According to the major ity opinion. even after the award. the wage rate was still below the common labor rate of 97 cents in Alaska. The issue Of retroactive pay then had to be settled, the company contending the case was closed simultaneously with the closure of the mine. The union contends mon- ey for time worked from the expir- ation date of the last contract to the closing of the mine is still due the men. The expiration date was May 1, 1943. The parties were a. greed on all issues except wages which issue was referred to the 12th Regional War Labor Board.
 4 spokesman for the board said:
 This may turn out to be a test case. If il goes through the courts, it could result in liens being placed against the company. The mine has shut down and reopened several times in its history as in not un- common in mine operations, and may reopen again.

Men Over 26
 Not Called
 For Service

Tn WrangeII for a couple of days this week was John Mccormick, Director of Selectiye, Service for AL aska. en route To his headquarters in Juneau after conferences in Washington, D. C., with Selective Service and Army chiefs.
 For the present, at least, Army wants few men over 26. the Direc- tor reported Therefore, it is not expected that those over 26 years of age in Alaska will be called for some time at least Plan is that IS-year-olds coming up and men under 25 who have heretofore been deferred for essential industry will fill the ranks. Mccormick aisd in advising the local board to direct men over 2G toward essential in dusHry rather than the Army. Those from IS to 2G will automatically go in the Army as only a very few key deferments are permitted.
 Upshot will mean slowing down Of Selective Service work in the Territory with the result local boards in some of the smaller com munities will be dfsbanded and their work turned over to the boards in the major centers.
 After checking local board af- fairs here. the Director was bound for Petersburg and thence to his Juneau headquarters.

Prohibitionists lined up in support
of Rep. Joseph R. Bryson's bill for
bidding sale or manufacture Of all
beverages containing more than II
Of ! per cent of alcohol for the
duration as congressional commit
tee prepared for hearings on the
measure.
AS prohibitionists organized sup
port, Rep. Emmanuel Celler said 1t
was rumored that they had raised
100000 for lobbying in Washing
ton.
Meanwhile, it was reported that
the Anti-Saloon league would remain
on the sidelines during consideration
of the bill, devoting its efforts to
persuading President Roosevelt to
declare prohibition as a war meas
ure under his present vast powers,

RIVER: Vagaries of the White
river in Indiana have shifted the
boundary line between Decatur and
Perry townships in Marion county.
Two schools operated by the Deca-
tur township authorities will have
to be closed because of lack of
funds. Property of the power COM
pany is no longer within the town
ships tax limits to provide revenue,
it was pointed out.
TRAP: Sir Malcolm Campbell,
British auto racing driver, was fined
$40 for causing injury to an odd
jobs man. A spring-gun loaded with
red powder that Sir Malcolm had
set on the boundaries of his land
went off and hurt the workman's
leg.
BEER: Boosting morale with
"beer and pretzels in moderation,
was proposed by the Cincinnati re-
gional director of the War Manpow-
er commission after studying re-
ports of after-holiday absenteeism,
which averaged 8 per cent.
ALUMINIUM: More buildings will
be made of aluminium and magne-
SUM alloys after the war, replacing
steel, it is said. These two light
metals will be much less expensive,
because electricity, the principal
cost item in their production, will
be obtained from hydroelectric
plants, it is asserted.

TYPHUS: Eleven public" deIous-
ing stations have been set up in
Naples, Italy, by Allied military
health officers to combat typhus,

which will be made by a Chicago
firm.
RISK: A further reduction in the
cargo insurance rate on goods
shipped between the United States
and Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay

Russian armies forged deeper into
pre-war Poland in flaming action on
the eastern front, overrunning terri
tory the Reds claimed as their own,
but the Polish government-in-exile
insisted must remain part of the
country.
AS the Russ surged forward into
pre-war Poland, Gen. Nicholas Va
tutin threw out a spearhead' to the
southwest, aiming toward the en-
trapment of 100000 Nazis from the
rear in the big Dnieper river bend.
The Reds entered pre-war Poland
at a time of heightening tension over
their claims that the White Russian

AGRICULTURE:
Hogs Pour In

Shipment of 476,5OO hogs within
3-day span recently in comparison
with 278, 400 for the same period a
year ago, reflected crowded condi-
tons in IL leading middlewestern
markets, with only choice 200 to
300 pound pigs attra citing $13.75 per
hundredweight.
Many hogs were left unsold as
daily trading closed, and fearful that
animals might contract pneumonia
with snow and colder weather, some
packers urged farmers to curtail
shipments, while embargoes were
imposed at other centers.
Tight labor conditions restricted
packers capacities, and in Chicago,
at least 200 soldiers from the labor
pool of a nearby camp were sent
into the packing houses to help out.

STRIKES:
Increase In '43

Almost IA million working days
were lost through strikes in 1943
compared with 4 million in 1912,
records of the bureau Of labor sta
tistics indicated.
Approximately 3,337,O91 workers
were involved in the estimated 3,737
walkouts, which topped the 1912 to-
tai of 839,961 men idle because of
1858 strikes.
Last years strikes doubled the
1927-'41 average of 1,945, but it was
pointed out that the depression pre-
vailed during that period, and be-
cause of scarce employment walk
outs were less frequent.
When things started picking UP in
1887, however, strikes rose to 4,740,
and working days lost totaled 49,

SOUTHWEST PACIFIC:
Jungle Fighting

Like the story of every other Is
land in the South Pacific, u. S.
troops have had to fight for every
inch of ground on tropical New
Guinea, where landings have placed
doughboys in possession of the air
strip on Cape Gloucester and
beachhead at Arawe.
With the enemy dug well in the
jungle, U. S. dive bombers and ar
tillery helped clear the way for the
infantry as it edged forward through
the dense brush about Cape Glou-
cester. In similar terrain at Arawe,
the enemy also fell back grudgingly.
While doughboys clawed forward
in New Britain, other elements of
the U. S. Sixth army beat south
eastward along the New Guinea
coastline toward a juncture with
Australian troops driving north
ward. In this sector, the Allies
aimed for the big Jap shipping base
of Madang, supply point for their
coastal positions.
Ace Lost
Only hours after a dispatch from
Guadalcanal had announced that
pudgy, 3o-year-old Maj. Gregory
c'Pappy'D Boyington had shot down
his 26t,l Jap to enter the selective
list of U. S. air aces, his mother
received word in Okanogan, Wash,
that he was missing.
With mothers faith she said:
Il am confident he is all right and
he will show up somehow, some
where
Called .'Pappy" because of his
comparatively older age among the
younger marine fiers, Boyington
was a picturesque daredevil. Once,
"Pappy" purposely led a squadron
over Jap airdrome, circling the
field slowly and daring the enemy to
come up and fight. When they did,
"Pappy' nailed three.
Only Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker
and Maj. Joe Foss shot down as
many planes as Boyington.

CANADIAN WHEAT:
To Increase Imports

With approximately $50, 600
bushels of u. S. wheat expected to
be fed to livestock during the cur
rent feeding season, an additional
100, 000,O to 10000, 900 bushels will
be brought in from Canada, accord
ing to government sources.
Because U. S. railroad cars will
be sent into the interior Of Canada
this winter, from $4,000, 900 to 50,-
100000 more bushels Of wheat will
be imported than otherwise posi-
BILE, due to the freezing Of the Great
Lakes.
Although the heavy dairy and
poultry producing areas Of the
Northeast have bettered their feed
situation, feed grains are needed in
the drouthy south central regions,
and protein meals are scarce in the
southwest range districts. The to-
tai supply of feed concentrates was
estimated at 1863, 1000, 900 tons.

SOLDIERS VOTE:
Urge Uniformity

While congress Wrangled over
whether the federal government or
the individual states should control
soldier voting in 1914, the war and
navy departments recommended
that applications for absentee bal
lots be distributed by the services
and local officials accept such appli-
cations any time before election.
Other recommendations made by
the army and navy were that voting
material be designed for air car
riage, and that serviceman's vote
be acknowledged by an officer no
lower in rank than sergeant.
Ballots must be distributed to the
servicemen by mail, the depart
