30 MORE FAMILY DWELLING UNITS ARE
 APPROVED, JUNEAU

Approval of 30 family dwelling units to be constructed at public expense in Juneau. has been an- nounced in Seattle by George w. Coplen, Regional Representative. National Housing Agency. These public family units are intended primarily for occupancy by families lof employees of governmental agen- cies and essential industries in Juneau. It is expected they will be completed during the coming build ing season and ready for occu- pancy about the first of october of this year.
 The Federal Public Housing Au- thority is charged with the respon- |sibility of construction and man. agement. Any inquiries regarding construction of the project should be referred to Frank M. Crutsinger, Regional Director of the Federal Public Housing Authority, Skinner Building, Seattle.
 MT. Coplen stated that this hous- Ii ing was found to be necessary as result of survey which he made in January of this year at the re- quest of Gov. Gruening. Approval has already been given for priori- ties to construct 30 privately fin anced family dwellings in Juneau. The first Is of these priorities were made available in November 1944 and the remainder on March l5, 1945.
 While the public units have been provided for occupancy of spe- cific list of essential activities the priorities for private construction have been provided to relieve gen. erally the congestion in Juneau which is at present causing hard ship for those families who are un- able to secure adequate living &C., commodations Under the private program builders may construct larger and better quality houses than has been possible under past war h o using standards with top sales prices of $8,00O and shelter rental ceilings of $65. This program is necessarily limited by the avail ability of materials and manpower. Anyone may occupy the houses built under this program.
 | The private housing units to be constructed are expected to meet ! the minimum construction stan dards of the Federal Housing Ad-
 ministration for insured mortgage
 loans under Title II of the National
 Housing Act. Houses built under
 this program may be financed with Tor without mortgage insurance by
 FILA. Applications for priorities to
 secure materials to built these
 houses should be filed with Folger
 Johnson, State Director of the Fed
 era1 Housing Administration, Port
 land, Oregon. Priorities are issued
 by FILA acting under a delegation
 of authority from the War produc-
 tion Board. Priority application forms can usually be secured from
 Norman Stines, WIPE Area Repre-
 sentative, from lending institutions,
 or from local building materials firms.

 Krug has had to turn hand springs since then. He had want ed to lessen government control but instead, he had to tighten it and set new and astronomical war pro- duction figures.
 WIPE hasn't always met schedules since Krug has taken over. How could it, with Army and Navy brass hats changing their demands almost every week? Also labor played coy in half dozen key war industries and strikes slowed things down.
 The fact remains that WIPE, un- der Cap Krug, has come so close to meeting schedules that when the chips are down in the investigat- ing committees those shortages at the front will be laid on somebody else's doorstep, not WIPES.
 Krug has been called a New Deal CT, but if he is he doesn't practice it. He's not a "big business man" but he's not against big business. HIS idea mostly seems to be "get the job done,v whatever it is.

Bi|bo Contemptuous
OF New '0uster' Move

Senator Bilbo, Democrat, of Mis-
sissippi today went steadily ahead
with his campaign for reelection
next fall, saying he would give only
silent contempt" to the newest
''oust Bilbo" movement.
Announcement of the formation
of 'veterans-citizens' committee to
oust Bilbo" was made last night by
Robert Lee of this city, a veteran
who heads the committee. Head
quarters are to be maintained here
and aside from picketing the resi-
dence of the Senator the group said
it would circulate a national petition
demanding that the Senate remove
the Mississippian from its member
ship
The groups statement contended
his conduct had been contrary to
our American principles of equality,
regardless of race, creed or color,
and is discredit to the dignity of
the United States Senate
In response to these and other
complaints against him, Senator
Bilbo told reporters:
Il pay such mouthings the atten-
ton I would give to a dog yowling
in the streets. That is just the
ranting of bemuddled, scummy
Communists and Negroes. The
statement is poisonous rot.
"The only thought have for them
is silent contempt, because they
know nothing about the Constitution
and the guarantee of freedom OF
speech"

assured Montgomery and Prince

rperfectly safe for drinking pur-
poses"
The statement was made in re-
sponse to complaints by many per-

taste" One complainant, Allen R.

gineer of the commission, explained
that heavy rains flush organic
matter into streams from which the

not succeeded in removing all the
bad taste, Mr.. Shaw said.

persisted more than usual" adding

Municipal Court Suits
In U. 5. Debts Upheld

The Municipal Court of Appeals
ruled yesterday the Municipal Court
has jurisdiction over civil actions
brought by the Federal Government
to recover debt claims when the
amount involved does not exceed
$4,000.
The ruling was made on an ap-
peal from lower court judgment
against Joseph H. Ridgley in a suit
filed by the Government alleging he
owed 1863 03 in back rent for certain
real estate. A motion by Maurice
Guervitz, legal aid attorney in
the case, for dismissal on grounds
District Court has exclusive juris-
diction was denied by the trial court.
In reference to Mr.. Guervitz' argu-
ment citing a decision of District
Court Justice James M. Proctor some
time ago, the opinion stated:
eve are aware that Justice of
the United States District Court
" has rendered a decision con-
trary to that which we now an
nounce. We cannot reconcile
the views there expressed with our
own Therefore, we cannot follow
that decision"
The opinion held that there is
not word" in the language of the
Municipal Court Act of April l, 1912,
defining the courts jurisdiction
which expressly precludes the
United States from asserting its
claims in that court"
