Chairman Malcolm Ross and Chas
Houston, Boris Shiskin and John P,
Brophy. They were accompanied by
George M. Johnson, deputy chair
man of FEPC, and Theodore A.
Jones, director of budget and ad-
ministrative management. They re-
manned with him for 10 minutes.
eve discussed ways and means
of continuing the work of the COM
mittee during the emergency pc
riod," Ross told reporters after
leaving the Presidents office. "He
has the matter under advisement, :"
he added.
Ross said also that President
Truman had reiterated "his belief
that the job can't be sufficiently
done without the permanent legis-
lation with which he is heartily in
favor"
Asked if they had discussed the
relationship of the committee with
the labor department, Ross said
they had not. Lewis B. Schwellen-
bach, new secretary of labor, has
already said that he would possibly
take over a number of government
agencies in a reorganization move.
No one identified with the COM
mittee would say that new order
had been handed to the President,
but it is known that one had been
in the drafting stage during the
previous week. Previous to the visit
it had been said that the purpose
was to get a redefinition of "war
industry" since the work of the
committee had been keyed to these
magic words, now non-existent.
Last October when a wave of op-
The daily bulletin. [volume] (Dayton, Ohio) 1942-1946, 1945-08-29

timism was sweeping the country
and attention was focusing on par
tial reconversion, certain FEPC
staff members began Incorporating
their views in memorandum
which, ultimately, was to have been
forwarded to the Presidnt.
Earlier in the week members of
the committee called on other high
government officials. They talked
with Schewelenbach on Monday to
learn his views and attitude on the
national policy which FEPC has
been called upon to carry out, as
we'll as his position on the contin-
uance of the agency.
Later they talked with John w.
Snyder, director of War Mobiliza-
tion and Reconversion, and Off
cials of the bureau of the budget.
Whereas the latter has instructed
all war agencies to trim their esti-
mates for the current year, in view
of the ending of the war, it is un-
derstood that FEPC is being al
lowed to carry on unhampered.

STANLEY N0WiCkA I5 RETIRING; SHOP
 BEING CLOSED OUT

Due to conditions caused by the war, Stanley Nowicka is selling his Juneau Paint Store and will retire to his home at Pearl Harbor. Vic Power is taking over the building and plans to install a carpenter and repair shop ill the store space.
 Tt has been so hard to find help and paint is impossible to buy, I have just decided to sell and take life easy" MT. Nowicka explained. He has been in Juneau 20 years and he and his brother, John Nowicka, are the oldest painters here today, John coming to Juneau in 1897 and Stanley in 1904. Stanley arrived in Juneau on the 18th day of July at 10 o'clock on the steamer Humboldt and three hours later, o'clock, he was working for James. Russell, painting, and has been painting here ever since.
 For the present, Stanley and his wife Alaska, will retire to their home at Pearl Harbor, just few miles be- yond the Shrine of St. TereSe. After the war they hope to take a trip outside and visit MT Nowicka s home town, Detroit, Michigan, which will be the first time outside for him in 15 years.

Former Regent in Custody Now-Two Nazi Gen.

PARIS, May 1-The former Re- gent of Hungary, Admiral Nicholas Horthy, has been taken into pro- tective custody with his family. Horthy and his family were dis covered by American Seventh Army forces in castle at Veil Elm, southwest of Munich. The former leader of Hungary is said to be in good health.
 Two German field marshals also have been taken by Seventh Army troops. They are Wilhelm List and Wilhelm Ritter Von Leeb. List was in civilian clothes when he was captured at his home at Parten- kirchen. He declared that he was relieved of his command because he refused to order an attack at Stalingrad-an attack which he re- garded as suicidal.
 Von Leeb was found at the town of Gardesing by units of the Forty Fourth American Division. Both he and List took major parts in the Polish, French and Russian cam paigns.

Rivers Clarifies Confusion Over Unemployment
 Law Revisions

Alaska's Attorney General, Ralph J. Rivers, today revealed that his office has received requests for in- formation regarding legislative changes in the Workmen's Compen- sation Law. These requests, he stated, disclose an evident general misconception that that law had heen amended by the last Legisla- ture. To correct this incorrect be- lief, Mir. Rivers issued the follow ing statement:
 Proposed amendments to the Workmen's Compensation law, Sec tion 2161, ct seq. Compiled Laws Alaska, 1883, failed to pass both Houses. Therefore, the Workmens Compensation law remains the same, with only employers Hiring or more persons coming under it, the Attor- ney General declared.
 He continued: There has been a material change, however, in the Unemployment Compensation Law, which was first enacted at Chapter of the Extraordinary Session Laws of Alaska, 1887. Heretofore, the employers first liability under the unemployment compensation pro- gram was created by having or more employees for some portion

BOYS AND GIRLS WEEK l5 TREAT
 FOR R0TARIAN5
Students Put on Varied Program at Club Lunch
 con This Noon

This week from April 28 to May 5 is National Boys and Girls Week and the 18th Annual Observance, which was started by Rotarians of New York City in 1920. In the meeting of the Rotary Club, here in Juneau in the Gold Room of the Baranof this noon, the program was turned over to the Chairman of the Boys and Girls Week, Hank" liar mon and most interesting and en- tertaining program followed. | Miss Alberta Murphy of the grade school presented a group of girls and boys in black face. With Mrs. Forrest Pitts playing piano accom- paniment of "Swanee River" the eight little girls did soft-shoe tap, which was very professional. Dress ed in black stockings, shoes and blouses with little white pinafores, turbans and gloves they looked like the true Southland. They were then joined by the boys and square dance followed, with a very lusty- lunged chap calling.
 Students representing the differ ent organizations which make up activity in the high school were then introduced and spoke briefly on their interests.
 President of the Student Body, Lynn Forrest, representing Admin istration, told of the electing of officers and general campaigning. Representing Social Life was Don Pegues, President of the Teen-age Club. He expressed sincere thanks to the Rotary and the members who had helped make this club a great success. May 11th will be the last meeting of this Teen-agers' Club, ending the second year of it's exist ence, and Don extended an invita- tion to all members of the Rotary and their wives and all townspeople to attend.
 Representing publications was Mary Sperling. Mary had a very ! personal definition of what a Ro- tarian was, which she has changed since she attended this meeting. T used to think Rotarian was some one who went around and around but now I know he is someone who sits and eats, she said. She told of their two publications-The J. Bird and the Totem. The J-Bird is weekly publication which is helped by the townspeople while the Totem is their annual.
 | MT. Harmon then introduced next years Editor in- Chief, Jim Klein, and National Rifleman in the N. R. A., Doug Boddy Doug's title of National Rifleman is a great honor as few as young as he have ever attained this, due to the strict qualifications.
 Mrs. Pitts, who is the leader and founder of the Singing Debs," in- troduced her young singers and they, together with Lilly Ann Maur-

 T. A. Pancheau then introduced a portion of his band, all dressed up in bright shirts and lewis. They had sort of Ho-down" with first a medley of old Susannah," "Oh, Them Golden Slippers" and Turkey in the Straw" As their second number they played group of Army tunes perhaps in honor of Donald Pegues who will leave for the Army upon his graduation-"H "Hinky Dinky Parlez Vous," "You're in the Army Now" and La Francesca" :" They followed this up with "Old McDon- aid and His Musical Farmyard.
 An encore was then played in the form of the well-known stamping March"
 President Jack Fletcher com- mended MT. Harmon for his splen- did program as well as the talented participants.
 The Rotary Picnic Chairman, Tom Morgan, reported on successful prog ress for the Annual Rotary Picnic, the plans of which are set for June 24 at Eagle River Beach.

 REPORT NOW
Conference Head May Re- turn Home on Account of
 War Developments

SAN FRANCISCO, May Word that Molotov may leave the United Nations Conference because of war developments coincided with new efforts of the Big Four to draft management details of this world meeting.
 It was learned that Molotov's de- parture, which is expected any day, would not reflect displeasure at the progress of the conference but would be due entirely to the war situation.
 There have been reports that not only he, put Foreign Secretary An thony Eden, Foreign Minister Vel louo of Brazil and other delegation chiefs may have to quit the city by mid-May, though at present it is said Eden has no plans to leave for London, while Secretary of State Edward Stettinius plans to remain here and see the conference through. When Molotov leaves he is expected to be succeeded as head of the So- viet delegation by A m b sador Gromyko. Definite word of Molo- toys probable departure came after meeting of the Big Four last night, which was described in American quarters as the most harmonious yet held.
 Molotov, it is reported, appeared no way chagrined at yesterdays con- ference action, voting Argentina into immediate membership despite his vigorous efforts to delay action.

of time in 20 or more different weeks during the calendar year. The change, under the new Act, Chapt 8. Session Laws of Alaska, 1945, ap- proved March l, l945, is as follows The word employer means. On and after July l, l945, any employing unit which has for some portion of a day. has or had in employment one or more individuals
 Accordingly, after July l, 1945, all ployer-employee relationships will come under the Unemployment Compensation law except agricul- tural labor, domestic servants, and other exempted classes
 In addition to the foregoing, an other charge appears in said New Act" under the head of excluded employees, as follows: Casual labor not in the course of an employers s trade or business dabor which does not promote or advance the trade of business of the employer. Tempor- ary labor in the usual course of an employers trade or business shall not be deemed to be casual labor"
 Incidentally, MT. Rivers concluded, the original Act has been amended SC many times that the average per- son couldn't help but get confused in reading it, together with all of such amendments, and considering incl dental repeals of original portions and repeals of early amendments thereto. Accordingly the Unemploy- ment Compensation Commissioner is presently recompiling the whole subject in pamphlet form and will soon distribute the same, showing the Unemployment Compensation Act as it now stands.

Resistance Pockets
To Delay UNRRA Aid,
Report Indicates
Ry the Associated Press.

Py the Associated Press.
The United Nations Relief and
Rehabilitation Administration told
liberated Europeans today the help
they need may be delayed by the
necessity of wiping out pockets Of
Nazi resistance.
But the people of devastated lands
were assured that full-scale as
sistance will be on the way once
the armed forces ease up in their
demands for supplies and trans
pprtation.
In the second quarterly report on
its operations, submitted to Con-
gress by President Roosevelt,
UNRRA asserted:
Even though the main back OF
the Nazi military power may be
broken before long, it may take
some time to clean up pockets Of.
Nazi resistance. If this eventu-
ality does occur, UNRRA may also
be limited. by such military opera
tions, in carrying out fully the tasks

Aiding Repatriation.
Thus far aid to liberated peoples
has been primarily of an emergency
type furnished through the Army
But UNRRA said it has representa-
tives working in most freed coun-
tries, ready to help them liberate
themselves from the hunger and
diseases that the enemy left"
1t also is aiding in the task of
repatriating war refugees. 1t is
assembling at least 200 teams of 13
members each to help in the care
and repatriation of 8,500,O00 United
Nations nationals In Germany.
In letter to Congress Mr. Roose-
welt said that as rapidly as possible
"UNRRA is furnishing emergency
and essential aid to the heroic
people who fought the Nazis before
the invaders overran their lands,
who fought them later during the
period of occupation and who are
now fighting side by side with the
forces of the other United Nations. ."
A chart in the report showed that
liberated areas are expected to meet
80 per cent of their own needs. OF
the s per cent which must be i'm
ported, UNRRA plans to supply one
fourth.
Pledges Still Out.
OF the $8O0,0OO,00O which the
United States has authorized in
cash or supplies for UNRRA. $751; =
165, 1886 has been allocated, the re-
port said: $26O98, ,2O6 has been OBJ
Ggated and $6,173,417 has been spent.
The report covered operations
through last December 81. Up to
that time s1,824,0OOO0O had been
authorized or was in process of be-
ing authorized by member govern
ments for UNRRA operations and
administrative expenses.
OF s10.000,000 pledged for 1914 ad-
ministrative expenses $8,416,0O0 had
been collected-an increase of
sac, 900 in three months. Russia still
owed $1,300000 of her share of
100000.
Australia had paid $4,000 out of
$150000 and Yugoslavia S., 900 out of.
$4,000. No payments had been re-
