SPECIAL COUNCIL SESSION SET FOR
 NEXT FRIDAY EVE
City Budget Due for Con. sideration al Extra
 Meeting July 27

Mayor Ernest Parsons notified Councilmen at last nights City session that he intends to call special Council meeting for next Friday evening" July 27. The meeting will be primarily for con- sideration of the City's budget for the year, he said.
 Indications are, the Mayor stated, that the tax rate can be maintain ed at the same level as last year, i7is mills. With an increase in valuations from 80 percent to 100 percent and with considerable ad- ditionai property added to the tax rolls, the City should, at the 1712 mill rate, receive sufficient addit- ional revenue to get by even though increased expenditures are certain, the Mayor outlined.
 Certain other matters are also to be considered at the special ses- sion, which will be determined by what transpircs before the meeting call is issued.

FULL CONTROL OF PACIFIC ISLES BY
 U. }. DEMANDED

WASHINGTON, July 21.-Presi- dent Truman's statement that the United States is not seeking "one piece of territory" prompted Con gressional demands today that this country retain complete control of strategic Pacific islands.
 Senator George D.-Ga) Foreign Relations Committeeman, told re- porter he thinks there are areas taken from the Japanese at high cost of lives where United States control should not be hampered even with the technical restraints of a proposed international trusteeship system.
 Georges declaration was echoed in part by some other Senators. All expressed the opinion that MT. Tru- man was not talking about the Pa cific when he said at flag raising in Berlin:
 There is not one piece of terri tory or one thing of monetary nature that we want out of this war"

 Vote on Franchise

expiration of the present water com- pany franchise.
 Vote on Franchise
 Facts concerning the condition of the water companys facilities should be obtained before the time to vote arrives, he declared, so that the people will be able to decide whether to purchase the properties or grant new franchise. An ap- praisal of the water company would have to be made before next win ter, he said, as it will be necessary to dig up pipes and other installa- tions for examination.
 Councilman Nielsen. Lea's lone ad- . herant, also had the water company foremost in mind Convinced that 1t might well be possible to obtain a valuation from R. F. Lewis, Juneau Water Company owner, before an appraisal is undertaken, he suggested that negotiations with Black and Veatch be delayed until the next Council meeting, wiring Lewis in the meantime.
 Lewis to Come Here
 In letter read to the Council MT. Lewis. had stated that he wish cd to be informed when the ap- praisers would be in Juneau, as he wants to be present and will bring here with him ali records that might be needed and which he now has in his possession at San Francisco.
 Councilman Lea next moved in with a flank assault, asking En- eineer Stuart if he had talked with J. A. Williams, Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company Superintendent regarding the Alaska -Juneau's in- tent regarding the sale of power should the City take over the light company.
 MT. Stuart replied that MT Will jams had preferred not to discuss that matter with him at this time Mayor Parsons offered, however that he had been advised that the Juneau could be assumed to he willing to supply power to the City on the same basis as it now supplies the AEL. and P. Go.
 Boomerang Fears Quieted
 The Mayor also quieted fears that the City might find an immediate appraisal a boomerang with 2 statement, in which Engineer Stuart concurred that any valuations as- certained by the appraisers could be kept confidential until after the util- ity firms had offered their selling prices and negotiations had reached a stage where any higher figure that might be set by the appraisers
The Daily Alaska empire., 1945-07-21


 should not influence agreement on purchase price. The informa- tion obtained from the appraisal would be for the City's use, not the utility companies, he said.
 Negotiations Clarified
 Councilman R. H. Williams closed the lid on the issue of delaying the appraisal by moving for clarification cf the action taken by the Council at it's last previous meeting. The intent of the Council at that time, he said, was mainly to secure an appraisal of water company facil- ities. Now, he declared, the picture has been changed by the light com panys declaration of willingness to sell out. tttttA3
 He offered a specific motion that -urrent negotiations. with Black and geatch should include valuation of Alaska Electric Light and Power Go. holdings in conjunction with the ap- praisal of water company properties. The moticn carried--Lea voting nay.
 Councilman Lea had one closing shot left in his quiver, however. He offered a, second motion to the eff feet that City Attorney Howard D. Stabler be instructed to enforce compliance by all utility companies with the Territorial law covering submission of annual reports to the City on the state of properties and business done.
 Stir Up Trouble
 Mayor Parsons quickly countered that any such move would only stir up trouble and ill feeling at a time when the City is endeavoring to se- cure cooperation of the utility firms. Before acknowledging the motion he forced Councilman Lea to offer it n written form, and recommended hat the Council take no action on it at least at this time. There is nothing to be gained by such move, he said.
 Tie motion was finally lost for want of second; but only after Councilman Nielsen had widened the scope of the whole utility issue by of Attorney Stabler if the Territorial public utility law would not also require such accountings an nually from storage firms alsoJ The City Attorney replied that storage facilities apparently are sub ject to the utility law, but that the particular law provision requiring such reports is weak and would be very hard to enforce. There the matter dropped.
 Opening Skirmish
 ] A preliminary skirmish to the whole utility battle last evening oc- cured between Mayor Parsons and l Councilman Lea at the opening of the meeting when Lea asked that notes taken at the informal Coun- cil discussion held Friday evening, the week previous, be made a part of the Council minutes The Mayor refused, stating that the session had not been a called Council meeting.

AFL Demands Minimum PAY
OF IS Cents an Hour
By the Associated Press.


CINCINNATI, Oct. 22.-The Amer
ican Federation of Labor's Executive
Council, moving into the final days
Of its quarterly conference, has urged
prompt enactment of amendments
to the Fair Labor Standards Act
setting IS cents an hour as the new
minimum wage in interstate indus
try.
The council, in a statement yes
terday, also called for restoration Of
the full employment bill Ito some
semblance of its original intent and
meaning.
The full employment bill passed
by the Senate was so weakened by
amendments, so hamstrung with res
Iervations, the council declared,
that its effectiveness in present
form is doubtful An effort will be
made, at hearings on this legislation
in the House, to restore it to some
semblance of its original intent and
meaning, and we pledge full support
of the AFL to this move"
The council said pending amend
ments to the Labor Standards Act,
setting the -65-cents-an-hour mini
mum wage. were being opposed 'fby
interests which seek to perpetuate .
low-wage economy in certain sec
tions of the country"

Coal Miners Return,
Signaling Pickup
In Steel Production
Ry the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
@PITTSBURGH, Oct. 22.-Praeti-
cally all of the fstriking soft Goa
miners returned TO work today, the
day set by John L. Lewis, United
Mine Workers president, for the
end of their 27-day-old walkout,
More than ZIG 900 SINNERS In SIX
States had been left idle by the
strike of the United Clerical, Tech
nical and Supervisory Employees OF
the mining industry, UNIV dis
trict so affiliate, for union recogni-
ton. Supplies of coal for industries
homes, schools and hospitals rar
so low, however, that last week Mr.
Lewis postponed settlement of the
issue until a more appropriate
time.
Today, virtually all Of the ap-
proximately 400 idle West Virginia
operations employing $4,000 men
were producing coal again.
All but 5000 of $4,000 miners re-
sumed work in Pennsylvania. The
LEFTOVER" walkouts involved local
grievances. The bulk Of those still
idle are employees of four mines of
the Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp,
where the mine bosses strike
started.
Early reports indicated virtually
normal coal operations in other
States affected. Thirty thousand
miners had been idle in Kentucky
100 in Ohio, 5000 in Tennessee and
$500 in Indiana.
! This signaled the beginning of a
pickup in the steel industry. Pitts
burgh district steel expected to
climb from so per cent of capacity
to SIS per cent by next week end.

British Doekers' Head
Hints National Strike

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, Oct. 22.-Tom Powell,
unofficial leader of Britain,s dock
strikers, threatened the government
with general strike today as the
country's most critical dock walkout
In 20 years spread to new piers.
II am warning the government
that, If they do not face up to the
present national crisis, within a few
months they will be faced with a
worse national disaster-a worse ma
tional strike-than there was in
1926" Powell declared.
Bringing thousands of soldiers
into this industry while strikers
wives and children are starving is
no solution" he said. This is no
way to build a beautiful Britain or
bring about social security"
The total OF soldier dock workers
rose to 10000 as another 3,10o troops
were called out to unload critically
needed food supplies. The number
of strikers reached IL 900 when 1906
dockers walked out at three Lon
don piers.
Members of the Strike Committee
said they would go to Commons to-
day or tomorrow to lobby with
members Of Parliament and make
inquiries into this soldier situation.
The strikers are members of the
Transport and General Workers
Union, which has condemned the
strike. Union officials said they
might have a statement tonight or
the longshoremen's demands for q
40-hour week and wages of $5 day
Meanwhile. food stocks dwindlec
throughout strictly rationed Britain
as IS ships, most of them bearing
food, awaited unloading in the Lon.
don area alone. -
