 She plans to spend the remaind- CT of the summer looking over Alaska" and will probably stay in Juneau for at least the next ten days before flying to the Interior.
 It is her first trip to the Terri tory and she is listening eagerly to all old-timerS' advice about what she must see" before completing her trip.
 Most people in New York City know a lot about London and Paris, but nothing about Alaska she said. I'll have a hard time con- vincing them that the sun shines here and thele is green grass"

(Contfnued rom Page Onel discharged during the tie-up at that port. It is not known whether the Ketchikan perishables will be reloaded on the Tongass south bound for Ketchikan, but believed more likely is that the Ketchikan stuffs will be dumped here as they are in very poor condition.

 Standing in mid-stream here to- day was the Alaska Line freighter Glove Hitch, waiting to berth at the Alaska Dock as soon as the Tongass Lad cleared She was re- ported to have approximately 190 tons of Juneau cargo aboard-a large portion of it perishables, which are expected to be in better condition than the Tongass land ings
 Due here tonight is the North land Transportation CompanyS North Sea, with some hundreds of tens of green stuffs, meat and other cargo for Juneau The North Sea left Seattle last Friday and has been speeded into Juneau in order to clear this port before the Friday deadline set by the long shoremen.
 Conditions on which longshore- men will continue to work ships after Friday morning are not dis closed but are believed to consist of meeting wholly their demands for immediate payment of the new contract base rate of $l.52 cents per hour and payment of retroac- tive wages.

 We of the medical profession, ; said Dr. Whitehead, appreciate and know Dr Norris record here during the last three years. The average layman, however, does not. Dr. Norris has never been interest ed in personal publicity, therefore l have called on his professional associates to tell of his work and remarkable achievements while sta tiored in this city
 In speaking of Dr. Norris work, Dr. Albrecht said. Tt is fitting and proper that Juneau should be given a chance to pay her respects to a man who has served Alaska so well in a very unique position
 During his stay here, Dr. Norris has not only been Director of the District, but also Medical Direct CT Alaska Native Service. U. s. Quarantine Officer in the Terri tory, and Liaison Officer between the U. S. Public Health Depart ment and Alaskan Department"
 The purpose of separating Alas ka from District 5, the headquarters of which are in San Francisco, y said Dr. Albrecht, was to more eff fectively assist the Territorial De- partment of Health in safeguard ing the public health and particu- larly that of the armed forces which were stationed in the Terri tory"
 Under his supervision the office has interpreted the rules and regu- lations to the various Territory health departments; assisted in staffing the health departments, through the loan of Is trained pub lie health personnel to the Terri torial Department of Health, and made suggestions concerning desir- able program content and review and approved health development budgets and budget revisions for the Surgeon General"
 MT. Geeslin spoke in high praise of Dr. Norris work with the ANS. He mentioned the many improve ments made this year and particu- larly stressed T. B. control and aid.
 Both pr. Whitehead and Rotary President Ed Keithahn extended the honor guest the official best wishes and farewell greetings of the Rotary membership.
 Dr. Norris spoke briefly in re- sponse to the speeches. He said that he had enjoyed his stay in Alaska tremendously, and was sure that in no other spot on the globe was there such friendliness and warmth of spirit as in Alaska.
