CANADA. RUSSIA GET INTO CONTROVERSY
SALMON TRAP SITES TAKEN N Up, HEARING

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-Oppo- sition to the Interior Departments plan to redistribute salmon trap sites in Southeast Alaska was ex- pressed today at hearing be- fore Acting Secretary of the Inter- for Oscar l.. Chapman.
 Tine Department proposes to amend the Alaska Commercial Fish ing regulations for 1946 to provide a maximum of 20 traps may be operated by any one individual or corporation. It said that last year eight companies controlled 221 of the 297 sites.
 Representative of the salmon in- dustry were on hand to protest against the proposed amendments to the regulations. contending that it would cripple production of Alas ka salmon, disrupt established trade and cause loss of millions of dollars of capital invested in the business.
 The hearing is expected to con- tinue for several days.

TRUMAN SAYS NO SHIFTING OF CABIN
President Does Not Want Two from Same State
 in Cabinet Either

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2l--Presi- dent Truman said today he is not ready to announce a successor to Interior Secretary Harold L. Ickes and spiked reports that Cabinet Unfit is in the making.
 He told a news conference he had discussed the Interior post with Supreme Court Justice William Q. Douglas, but left up in the air whether Douglas would get it or even whether he had been offered the job.
 At one point, he appeared to have ruled out Douglas because he said he did not want to have two Cabinet members from Washington State. Lewis E. Schwellenbach, Secretary of Labor, is from that State.
 But he made this comment when asked whether Gov. Mon c. Wall- gren of Washington, a former Sem ate colleague, is under considera- ton for Ickes place. MT. Truman said Wallgren would make good 5ecretary of the Interior. but you can't have two Cabinet members from the great State of Washing ton.
 That would seem to bar Douglas too," a reported observed.
 Draw your own conclusion" the President replied.
 When another newsman suggested that Douglas gave his legal residence as Connecticut, the President cor rected him to say Douglas is from Walla. Walla, Wash.
 Commenting on another report that Schwellenbach might be ap- pointed to the Supreme Court ii Douglas went to Interior. the Presi- dent said emphatically that Schwel- lenbach is going to stay where he is.
 He added that Clinton P. Ander- son, another mentioned for Ickes post. will remain as Secretary of Agriculture. That is definite, Mir Truman said, as long as they want to stay.
 There is no constitutional pro- hibition against two Cabinet mem- bers from the same State. Presi- dent Roosevelt had two or more New Workers in his Cabinet at various times.

SEVEN WOMEN MURDER JURY

Following two days of dogged ex- animation of prospective jurors, final selection of twelve citizens to hear murder charges against George Harrison Meeks was reached with a suddenness that startled the filled District Court here, yesterday after noon at 3:30 o'clock. Repeated waivers of peremptory challenges, by the defense, had many times raised false hopes that trial jury had been arrived at; but each had been followed by Government challenge.
 Last juror to enter the box was Mary E. Haas, of Juneau. As usual, she was subjected to lengthy ques- l. tioning before her qualifications were passed, for cause, by both sides. Then the defense rose, again to accept the jury as constituted. The prosecution huddled, then it, too, declared satisfaction with the trial jury.
 As finally selected, to decide whether George Meeks is guilty and shall pay with his life for the mur- der of Clarence J. Campbell, the jury is:
 Val A. Poor, Douglas; Liv Husvik, Petersburg; Ruth Ward Thomas, Sitka; Jean Talkington, Juneau; William D. Burfield, Skagway; c. L. Skuse, Juneau; Mary E. Haas, Juneau; Frances Worobec. Juneau; Esther Erbland, Juneau Rex .. Hermann, Douglas, Paul Ecklund, Thane; Mrs. J. W. Mckinley, Ju- .leau.
 Seven women, all housewives, and five men, now hold in their hands the fate of the accused.
 Ordering that the jury is not to be secluded during the present trial, Judge J. w. Kehoe cautioned the trial panel, not only on comforting with any persons regarding the case, but also against reading daily newspaper accounts of the proceed ings.
 The remainder of the venire, was excused until 10 o'clock Monday morning, when, the Court advised the jurors, it is likely that they will again be excused till later date, as the Meeks case is expected to consume several days.

S2oO,oOO IS SET AS RECREATION
 CENTER LIMIT

The Common Council of Juneau. in special meeting Wednesday eve- ming, passed a resolution authoriz- ing application to the Federal Works Agency for an advance plan ming loan for a civic recreation building, in an amount not to ex- ceed $200,000.
 Necessary features of such build ing, as finally settled upon by Ju- neau Wcman's Club, sponsors, for presentation to the Council are:
 Swimming pool for probably three months use each year.
 Possibly a rifle range-strongly advocated by It. Col J. P. Williams, of the Alaska Territorial Guard.
 A 'Teen-Age Club and general recreation room with snack bar.
 It was suggested that. if the A. B. Hall site is finally chosen, pres ent foundations of that building may be converted. Also, the recrea- ton building now conceived may be planned for future additions, which could include second floor housing a combination gym auditorium dance floor The whole problem is still under study, but bowling alleys and a nursery now seem definitely out"
 Before passing on the $200.000 limit, the Council decided it is the absolute tops the City can hope to finance without Federal aid.

C0VT.A((USES DEFENDANT OF ROLLING PLOT
Defense Hinges on Meeks Possession of Money
 Prior 10 Murder

Delivering the opening statement for the prosecution, U. s. Attorney Patrick Gilmore, Jr., this morning ''unequivocally" demanded the re- turn of verdict of capital mur- der" against George Harrison Meeks for the alleged staying of Clarence J. Campbell.
 The chief prosecutor kept his opening remarks brief. He outlined a sequence of circumstances which he contended will firmly establish the guilt of the defendant. He pre- faced his description of the events to be brought out to prove Meek's guilt by asking the jury's patience through what he said will "un- doubtedly be lengthy trial"
 Failure of a defense move to postpone it's opening statement un- til the conclusion of the Govern ment,S case, brought Associate Council for the defense, J. J. OLeary forward to summarize the defendants view of the circum- stances. OLeary made obvious that he had been but recently called into the case for the defense by ire quently interrupting his address to turn to either his client or CO., counsel for prompting as to facts.
 He held up his client as an un- schooled farm boy from back ward section of the State of Geor- gia; one, who on going out into the world, had brushed against the sordid side of life and become tained;" who had taken to drink, gambling and bad company.
 It was to Meek's proficiency at the game of -four -five-sixv and his good fortune at shooting craps" that O'Leary attributed his clients possession of large sum of money which U. s. Attorney Gilmore had held up as a damning fact against the defendant The defense coun- sel averred that it would be proved by the testimony that Meeks' had won that money at Anchorage, gambling, and that he later kept it in his possession as secret horde of which Juneau City Police off, cers found him in possession here prior to the killing of Campbell
 Innocent Man
 It is on that fact that Meeks was in possession of the money be- fore Campbells death--that the de- fense, from OLeary's statement of the defense case, most relies to establish that George Meeks is 'an utterly innocent man"

The Washington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON-The leak which sprang the big spy story in Can ada came when the Soviet ordered home one of it's agents. He had been in Canada for some time, had come to like Canadians, and was not sympathetic with certain So- viet tactics.
 He suspected also that his gov ernment was aware of his changed viewpoint and that this was the reason for his abrupt order to re- turn. Soviet officials suspected of straying from the narrow path sometimes have been liquidated fol- lowing their return, and this may have influenced the agents confes- sion.
 This particular agent was for tunate in having his family with him in Canada. If they had been in Russia they would have been sub feet to retaliation. Therefore he surrendered himself to Canadian authorities and revealed one of the most amazing networks of foreign intrigue in recent history. British secret intelligence worked for weeks in tracking down every segment of information. Special agents were even sent from Washington and Londcn.
 Since then, the Russian has been in constant custody of the Cana dian Mounted Police. His where abouts are kept strict secret, and he has been moved frequently from one place to another.
 The Canadians want no repetition of the case in which Krivitsky, former high official in the Soviet secret service, was found murdered

BY ALLAN FISHER

! NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-Five Es- kimos, camping out in the Medison Square Garden in an atmosphere of pre-fabricated log caeins, all- metal canoes and sing-song barsers, held family council today to cope with a good neighbor crisis pre- cipitated by California school chil- dren.
 "The only Eskimo family in the United States"-so billed at the Na- tional Sportsman's Show-was in danger of disillusioning the entire 40-student third grade of the San Ysidoro, Calf, grammar school, who had. requested gifts ranging from polar bear skins to ivory.
 Papa Bumaroon combed his ex- tentive English vocabulary for suit ably grave words. He looked at his family, brought here from Nome, Alaska, and said.
 My, we're in spot"
 In his hand he held seven letters, written in childist scrawls, but im- peccable English, which had been entrusted to the Associated Press by Joyce F. Hettich, San Ysidoro teacher. She asked that the let ters be delivered to the Eskimo family.
 Gifts Wanted
 Will you send me a piece of polar bear skin about three-fourths of an inch long?" said Delbert c. Caldwell. Please send me a piece of ivory about one-half an inch long"
 Please send me bow-arrow, . said Sammy" Stella Miranda vol unteered: We are learning about Huskies, Totem Poles, Polar Bears, Tundra and about the Umiak."
 Ida Mary" was solicitous: T hope that you will not get too warm"
 Papa Bumaroon, a seal hunter and fur trapper, had just mushed into Manhattan from the home of a Queens friend via subway with his family. They were brought here from Nome for their first U. s. visit by David Irwin, the Arctic explorer who organized air rescue teams for stranded army fliers in Alaska.
 Eskimo Habitat
 Bumaroon also answers to the un- Eskimo sounding name of Tom Brown. He calls his wife Esther. The children are Kamak, 4; Ok yak 2; and Emouruk, six-months English equivalents: Velma, Jack and Phillip.
 Their booth at the Garden is Broadway's version of an Eskimo habitat-a packing box throne coy- cred with caribou skins. With them are Dix and Johnny, two of Irwin's giant Alaskan Husky dogs.
 Well, sir" sair Bumaroon he went to Government school T shopped around for whale skin and ivory before left Nome, and could not find any"
 Bow and arrow? He doesn't use them. And he has no bear skin.
 'Yes, we do get pretty warm here in these furs,' he said. But he figures the furs will be useful when he takes his family to the

 At the end of the recessional march, his scarlet clad bearers slowly turned the red and gold portable throne on which the Pope was carried. back toward the altar.
 The Pontiff rose from his chair slowly.
