BIG CHAIN
 CONVICTED
 VIOLATIONS

DANVILLE, III. Sept 21.-The huge A&P food chain, one of the worlds largest, 12 of it's subsidiar ies and 16 of its officers were con- victed today of violating the Fed eral Antitrust law.
 The defendants, including John A. and George L. Hartford chiefs of the nationwide network of retail outlets and affiliated operations, were found guilty by Federal Judge Walter c. Lindley on both counts of a criminal information.
 They were found to have conspir- ed to restrain trade in food pro- ducts and to monopolize substan- tial part of such products in inter state commerce." The maximum penalty for each defendant would be a $5,000 fine and a oneyear prison sentence on each of the two counts
 ARP immediately announced it would appeal, saying we cannot conceive of this decision being up- held by any appellate court for we believe it to be in direct conflict with the facts in the case and the letter and spirit of the Sherman (anti-trusD act"

EXCAVATION BEGUN, CHURCH
 The Hans Berg Construction Company of Juneau, began excavat- ng this morning for the new Douglas Community Methodist Church building for which they were awarded the building contract.
 A full concrete basement, social hall and Sunday School rooms are included in the present plans, which are designed for a new large wing as soon as finances and att tendance warrants.
 The Church is to be a Commun- ity Church and will cooperate with other activities besides the regular Methodist Church services and functions for which it is being tuilt. The Church is being financed by the Methodist Board jointly with the Douglas Congregational Church group.
 It IS hoped by the building com mittee and the Rev. Robert Treat, Methodist Pastor, that the church can be used, though not fully com )letcd, by the Christmas holidays. At present the Methodist services are held in the home of MT. and 1Irs. Leigh S. Grant.

MEATLES5 DAYS
 ARE IN STORE
 FOR JUNEAUITES

Whether or not the shipping strike ends in the near future, res idents of Juneau will soon be un- able to buy meat from local butch CT shops.
 Meat bought in Seattle before OPA recontrol prices were announc- ed, rightfully belongs to Juneau and it's citizens; but it is impossible for local shop owners to ship it North and sell it at anything but a loss
 For example, one Juneau butcher ordered $5,000 worth of meat from a Seattle concern during August. It was consigned to him and has been in storage waiting for shipment since September 4 But he paid on that order 40 cents a pound for chucks of beef sacked and ready for shipping. Freight would be about 3 cents a pound After the meat is cut and trimmed, the butcher would, after next Wednes- day, have to sell it for 45 cents. and it is plain that he would he losing money.
 On Joins of beef the cost to the butcher for meat bought before re- control was 64 cents a pound laid down in Juneau. The OPA price is now 63 cents. Round steak cost 49 cents, anG the OPA price is 58 cents, giving the butcher small margin But on most cuts, the butcher would take a substantial loss if he sold his meat here under OPA ceilings So he will sell it in Seattle, and Juneau may find some thing else to eat
 In order to operate butcher shop profitably, the OPA allows a merchant 25 percent gross profit. But obviously no butcher who bought meat at the above quoted prices is going to be able to make even a 10 percent gross margin.
 Of course, some butchers were

 GREEK BORDER
UMainian Charges 0uash : ed, So s American Move
 for Investigation

LAKE SUCCESS, N. r., Sept. 21. Reported shooting incidents along the northern Greek frontiers re- mained under surveillance of the United Nations today despite Rus sia's veto of an American proposal in the Security Council for an on- the-spot investigation.
 The suggestion of focusing con- tinued attention on the troubled Balkans situation was made in an Unprecedented move by Secretary General Trygve last night when the Council rejected four proposals arising from the Soviet Ukraine's accusations against Greece.
 The rejections had the effect of quashing the Ukrainian charges that Greece, with British backing, was menacing peace on the Al banian frontier, and they ended the Councils concern with the case af ter eleven sessions of bristling de- bate in the past three weeks.
 However, Lies statement-that he was reserving the right, under the U. N. charter, to investigate and report on any matter which he deemed a threat to international peace and security-moved Soviet Delegate Andrei A. Gromyko, the Council chairman, to remark that he though the Secretary-General was perfectly right" in raising the question.

 But if a housewife goes to the meat market next week or the week after and finds she can't even get Fido bone, we'll say local butchers, hes just going to have to eat something else; because we cant buy meat now anywhere. And if we did have big stocks in Seattle waiting for shipment, we'll sell them there because nobody is going to ship that meat to Juneau and sell it for a loss"
