Sparkman 10 Direct
Democrats Election
Speaking Campaign

Representative Sparkman, Demo-
crat, Of Alabama, House majority
whip and nominee for the Senate,
will direct the Democratic party's
general election speaking campaign.
The Democratic National Com
mittee yesterday confirmed Mr..
Sparkmans appointment as chair
man Of its speakers bureau. which
will participate in both House and
Senate campaigns.
The 46 year -old Alabaman, whose
July nomination to succeed the late
Senator John H. Bankhead is equiv
alent to election, said he already
has written Democratic members of
Congress asking If any need help
and whether they will volunteer as
speakers.
Democratic governors and cabinet
members also have been asked to
lend voices wherever needed.
I'VE expect to concentrate our
speaking in marginal districts" Mr.
Sparkman told a reporter. "Well
lay down a real barrage where we
fear We might lost or where we think
we have chance of taking a seat
away from the Republicans.
I'm not at all pessimistic," he
continued, "and I think that the
Democrats will retain control of the
House-but we're going to run a
scared race"
Turning to recent Republican
charges that Communists are in
f1uencing the Democratic party s
policies, Mr.. Sparkman said:
That's old, old stuff and there

New York newspapers grew thin

made it impossible to move paper

The New York Times and New

made further reductions, the Times
omitting all advertising except pub
lie records and the Tribune omitting
display and classified ads. The
Times printed 16-page paper and
the Tribune l2-page paper.
Mirror Drops Advertising.
The New York Mirror dropped all
advertising and issued 16-page pa
pers both days. Only the New York
Daily News, with large newsprint
supplies on hand because of ex-
panded storage space, did not cur
tail advertising.
In the afternoon field, the New

National Capital Parks, said he had
no objection to reopening the street
as long as the White House didn't
object and he added 1t would be a
good idea" to have traffic going
through the street again. He said he
assumed the street would revert to
the Parks Office.
Secretary Snyders recommends
ton also was hailed by George
Keneipp, District traffic director, who
said he was in favor of using every
downtown street for traffic rather
than parking.
Mr.. Keneipp emphasized that
when the street is reopened, angle
parking should be banned. He
pointed out that this decision would
have to be made by the Park Po-
lice but he said he believed angle
parking was hazardous and had been
discarded elsewhere years ago as an
tiquated and unsafe.
Plans Traffic Study.
Asked about angle parking, Mr..
Root said a decision on parking
would not be made until it is de-
termined how much traffic is going
to use the street. If there is much
traffic. he said, angle parking will
not be permitted.
West Executive avenue, lined by
the executive Offices on one side
and the State Department on the
other, is one of the only downtown
streets where angle parking is per-
mitted. 1t has never become the
traffic artery that East Executive
avenue was because Of the stone
piers to which gates were previously
attached.
Traffic officials have regarded
these stone piers as traffic hazard
but an old law has prevented their
removal
On March 8, 1927, West Executive
avenue lost some of it's character as
virtually a private road when Con-
gress ordered the gates removed
For some reason that has baff1ed the
experts, however, Congress specified
in the same act that the stone
piers to which they (the gates) are
attached shall not be removed"
Removal Recommended.
At meeting shortly after the act
was passed the Commission Of Fine
Arts noted that the piers constituted
a hindrance to motorists and ex-
pressed confidence that subsequent
Congress would order the piers re-
moved. 1t was suggested at that
time that the piers and gates be
relocated at one of the entrances
to the Nations Capital. but Con-
gress failed to act and the piers
have remained where they are.

Regarding another source of COM

commended that city officials confer
with the Civil Aeronautics Board in

16 ACRES SPRUCE TIMBER CONSUMED
 AT MITCHELL. BAY

Admiralty Division Forest Super visor John Brilliant today estimated that 16 acres of young, high grade spruce timber were burned over in last weeks forest fire at Nit chell Bay. The area burned was a strip almost exactly on-half mile long and 250 feet wide bordering the east shore of the highly scenic sports spot.
 Brilliant stated that reports of the Forest Services fire fighting crew have definitely shown flames spread from the unattended fire of carless camper, left burning just within the edge of the timber The fire crew under Foreman William Fromholz has now all re- turned here and yesterday was transported to Turner Lake for trail work, aboard the Ranger x.
 Timber burned, Brilliant said, av- eraged from one to two feet d. b. h. Great difficulty was encountered in extinguishing the last sparks be- cause the fire had burned down into tree roots and moss. At places, the fire fighters had to dig down as far as five and one-half feet to reach the last of the fire. Fore man Fromholz reported no help from the weather, as last weeks rains did not reach the Mitchell Bay area. No rain at all fell there.
 Besides the crew at Turner Lake, a second trail crew under Trail Foreman Horace Blood will go out at the end of this week to tenn porary camp now being set up at the end of the Herbert River road. Seven men will be located at tke camp to maintain trails in that vicinity, including those to the Yankee Basin, Windfall Lake, Amalga and Herbert Glacier.

 Many persons at the fight had travelled long distances, MT. Fuller declared. A number Of specta- tors at the fight were blind but seemed to thoroughly enjoy every minute of the performance.
 Tn Chicago, Fuller stopped off to see a niece, 32, whom he had never seen before. He met many friendly people, and Saw lot of interesting things"

 Although Mucklubk has been there cnly eight years, the Taku Ledge, unlque of it's kind in Alas ka. has been owned and operated by Miss Joyce for Is years.
 With modernized accommodations for as many as 30 guests, the lodge has retained q special rustic charm that is wholly Alaskan.
 Scores of Alaskan residents as well as tourists make the trip up the river each year to go Alas kan" relax before the huge stone fireplace iq the central social room, and hunt or fish ill the lavishly- stocked nearby streams and moun- t8iusidcs
 Within 13 miles of six glaciers the Norris Taku, Twin Glaciers, ead Wught-,he lodge has long bsen 8 stop ever for visiting artists ana photo3rapheis.
 Numerous world-famous writers have sojo'Ined at the retreat to gather material on Alaska's scenic wondcls and to fill up on moose meat, yenison, fresh fish, and, in acas10, blueberries and strawberries grown at the lodge.
 For the armchair researcher" Alaska's natural history is more or !ess recorded on the walls of the social room. Arranged around the rocm are mountain goat skins, car- ibou horns, elk's heads, etc.
 There is alsc a silver cup award ed Miss Joyce by the City of Fair banks in 1883 when. accompanied only by an Indian guide, she mush- ed a dog team from Taku to Fair banks in i've days.
 So far Muc'1luck is more a utili- ty at the lodge than feature. 5cmeday her horns will be added to the walls for the admiring gaze of visitors and the tales of her ad- ventures ilnmortalized but at the moment aI clements of her uncow- like personality are being strongly suppressed.
