DR. EVELYN BUTLER
 BACK FROM SOUTH

Dr. Evelyn Butler of the Alaska Native Service has returned to Ju- neau after a two weeks business so- journ in the States. While in Washington, she visited some of the vocational schools attended by Alaska native children but because of the severe storms at the time of her visit, was unable to carry out her original schedule.
 According to Dr. Butler, 32 chill dren from the Territory are now attending vocational schools for the deaf and the blind in Salem, Ore gon; Vancouver, Wash, and several ether locations in the state of Washinoton because Alaska does not have facilities for these handi- capped youngsters. At present, plans are being prepared for a new vocational school to be erected at sitka and this will also include col lege preparatory work.
 Dr. Buffers immediate concern for the native children attending school in the States is locational plan for the summer months when classes are not in session. The Native Service hopes to place the children in private homes during this time as it is impossible to bring them back to the Territory for their vacation period.

GRIPPING DRAMA
 "SH0CK" IS BILL
 AT 2OTH CENTURY

Electrifying with the terror filled drama of man caught in the grip of the love of woman who will stop at nothing-even murder to achieve her desires, 20th Gen. tury- FoX's taut and suspenSeful thriller, Shock" starring Vincent Price and Lynn Bari, is scheduled to open at the 20th Century to- night.
 Said to be enc of the more un- usual stories reaching the screen, Shock" precents Vincent Price in his most absorbing role to date, that ot a psychiatr'st who finds himself inexorably drawn into a desperate adventure, the terrifying secret of which he shares with a beautiful but ruthless woman who taunts him on to even more reck- less deeds.
 Lynn Bari is seen as the beauti- full nurse whose irresistible fascina- ton forces Price to the most chal- lenging decision any man can be called upon to make.
 The gripping drama starts when Price, who is having a clandestine affair with his nurse, Lynn Bari kills his wife in a passoniate burst of rage. At his nurses suggestion, he and she conspire to veil the cause of his wife's death in secrecy, oblivious to the fact that young girl had witnessed the murder. But mortified at what she had seen. the girl is shocked into state of coma and is removed to Prices Sanitarium where, with psychiatric probing, he discovers that the girl knows the secret of his crime, and leaves her, under sedatives, deep in shock.

 "The checkers continued to pick ct although checkers as usually de- fined are not used for Alaska shipping. The custom of checkers has formerly applied only to off shore or foreign shipping.
 Unfamiliar Angie
 Needless to say, this was a new and unfamiliar angle that had nev- CT heen contemplated, and after two night sessions between all con- cerned I felt that there was noth- ing that I could do further, as there appeared no basis for ne- gotiations.
 During the fourteen days that l was in Seattle met with un- ions, Seattle municipal authorities ship owners, and wholesalers foi eleven days, and many nights.
 When I met Mayor Devin of Seattle and discussed the overall picture with him, I am convinced beyond any reasonable doubt that he had done everything he could possibly do to alleviate or correct the present situation.
 Repercussions
 The wholesalers in Seattle are in great fear of the possible reper- cussions of the deplorable tieup as it relates to future business be- tween Alaska and Seattle, and are aware that they may lose forever their preeminence as suppliers fol Alaska, that they have occupied for fifty years. They are willing to do almost anything and have already extended credit to Alaska merchants beyond anything pre- viously thought ot.
 q hold no brief for Seattle, the shipCwners, or Seattle business men, but in all fairness they can- not be held accountable for the lntolerable conditions that exist ir shipping, nor can AlaskanS be ex- pected to suffer in order to helT Seattle interests, even if these in- tereSts are blameless for our pres ent troubles.
 i Re-r0ct Freight ] Tt is my opinion that those re. sponsible for the shipping tieup do not only end it immediately but furthermore give us every req 1 sonable assurance that it will no happen again, our only alterna. tive is to seek to have our freight re-routed from another port.
 Tt will take a long time to re- coup the losses entailed by thi' last unconscionable interruption il shipping. This applies as much, il not more so, to wage earners as we'll as business men.

with the determination to have a completely open mind. I main tained this position until it was no longer possible not to form certain definite conclusions. I was told by certain responsible un- ion leaders that there was still a chance of early settlement. I sincerely hope there is a sound reason for their assurance.
 Eight of Line"
 Alaska, is for the present, hope lessly caught in what seafaring men call The Eight of the Line. There is no need Tor me to elab- crate on the suffering and torture that we are going through.
 The suggestion that Alaska freight originate in Portland has many drawbacks. Portland is fur ther away, practically the same conditions exist on the waterfront that prevails in Seattle. There are millions of dollars of freight piled Cu the wharves in Seattle that could not be removed without the consent of the same source that is "'roadv preventing it from being shipped to Alaska.
 cortland attempted to serve Alaska as a port once before with out success. Seattle has many nat ural advantages Portland does not possess. Many Alaskans buy from Portland suppliers at present, where they equalize the freight to Se- attle to meet competition. A com petitive service out of Portland or any other port would be highly desirable. Let us hope this comes about
 "Alaskans may be assured, al- though it is small consolation, that their public servants are doing everything they can with the in- adequate tools at their disposal Every conceivable pressure has been exerted as Commander Ches- ter will testify. The lack of re- suits should be placed where they belong, and I sincerely hope that innocent and honest workers will not be penalized for conditions over which they have no apparent control.
 Tn conclusion I do not think party politics deserve any place ir this statement, but I feel intensely constrained to say that the prob- lem that now confronts Alaska as it has confronted other places ir the United States caused the po- litical upheaval recently witnessed Had Enough" was terrifically potent slogan. Constructive criti- cism is sorely needed"

 5. The probable result ol the Four-Power talks on Germany here will be the appointment of a Com mission of Deputies to do the spade work for Foreign Minis ters' meeting in Europe early next year.
 Byrnes said there were about sev- en questions into which the Depu- ties should go iii blocking out the future of Germany and, while he did not enumerate them, he made clear that they would include the boundary issues and probably the kind of government which Ger Iuany ought to have.

SENATOR WALKER
 MAKES REPORT ON
 HIS SHIP INQUIRY

Territorial Senator Norman R. Walker recently returned to his home in ketchikan after trip to Seattle, lasting from November II to November 28, in which he made a personal inquiry into the inter- ruption of transportation of freight between Seattle and Alaska.
 Senator Walker has submitted the following statement regarding his investigation while South:
 T left Annette airfield Novem- her II at the request of group of business people and with the full knowledge and approval of labor leaders in Ketchikan enroute to Seattle where I registered the same day at the Frye Hotel.
 T immediately contacted Con- mander Chester of the United States Coast Guard by telephone at the New Washington Hotel. had met Commander Chester about three weeks previously at the Ol- ympic Hotel in the presence of Walter Anderes of the Crystal Dairy, Cy Steers of the Steers Wholesale Agency, and H. B. Crew. son of Carstens Packing Company in Seattle, when the Coast Guard waived certain restrictions allowing small boats to serve Southeast AL aska.
 commander Chester reported excellent progress in releasing small boats, but agreed with me that they did not even remotely fulfill the needs of the Territory. He further stated that the Grom- . met Reefer would probably sail in a few days when the choice of en- zine room officers was settled. The Grommet Reefer did sail for South west Alaska as relief ship
 Ridiculous Incongruity
 q would like to state that the term relief state as defined in Seattle is ridiculous incongruity and an insult to the intelligence of Alaska. The word relief is usually associated with some form of disaster over which mortals have no control and in no way should be connected with present condi- tions. Relief supplies are defined as food, clothing and medical sup plies. The economic blood stream of Alaska would dry up very rap idly, were it's needs confined to the supplies coming within the definition of relief.
 November 12, through a labor contact I had made in Ketchikan, I arranged to meet the Seattle agent for the Committee for Mari time Unity. It appeared from what he told me that there were many more things in controversy than the choice of navigating and engine room officers. We had two meetings the same day. I then met with the ship owners and they were just as firm in saying that the only matter in controversy was the choice of the aforementioned officers. They further stated that they had five ships ready to sail, namely: the Baranof, North Sea, Alaska, Tongass and Lakina.
 LongshOre Strike Ends
 After long negotiations, mainly in San Francisco, the ship owners and ILWU reached an agreement ending the longshore strike Satur- day, November 16.
 The ILWU pickets were with drawn to be immediately replaced by pickets in support of the Mast CTS, Mates and Pilots. A coast

COACHING a group of volatile, i'm
pressionable youths has always called
for an understanding of human
nature as we'll as ability to teach
the players how to block and tackle.
1t has been said that football is 80
per cent spirit. Handling team this
season will demand an even surer,
DETER touch than before. The tenn

the seasons first kickoff.
predict that the most success
full teams will be coached by men
who we're in the service themselves
or have been smart enough to
explore thoroughly the complex reac-
tions of young men who think they
know all the answers. The coach
who gives his players the old-fash-
ioned pep talk about dying for dear
old Siwash runs splendid chance
of getting a cleat between the eyes -
and deservedly so. The boys have
seen too much dying for a better
purpose.
There is another upsetting fac
tor. perhaps the most important:
the kind of bone-breaking foot
ball that will be played this
season. The year 1919, another
postwar season, still is remembered
with an involuntary shudder by
old-time fans. Brawls like Dart

coaches are in tizzy trying to
anticipate the attitudes toward
mere game on the part of one-time
wide-eyed college boys who now are
hard-bitten, mature men. If the
truth were known. many coaches
would prefer to work with youngsters
fresh out of high school who believe
everything they're told. But there'll
be fewer teen-agers in college this
year, with all institutions flooded
by applicants under the CT Bill of
Rights.

Less Discipline

RECAPTURING skills and reactions
unused for several years will COM
plicate matters for many former
GI's. Physical difficulties, however,
will be insignificant compared to
the psychological problems that will
bedevil coaches. Having been ex-
posed to the annoying personal
restrictions of the military. the boys
will not be so amenable to the
authority of coaches and college
watchdogs who cramp their style as
in years gone by.
There was a suggestion of such
trouble last year when relatively few
servicemen were playing. Mime
sotas chances of winning the Big
Ten championship were knocked

"Hls coming college football cam
paign promises to be a little gem
of a cockeyed season, with more
excitement than we've seen in years.
Teams will blow hot and cold with
regular irregularity. One week a
group of gridiron gladiators won't
be able to lick the Little Sisters of
the Poor; the next week it will
play like IL devils. The reason?
Most of the better teams will be
manned by returning servicemen,
whose performances are likely to be
as unpredictable as a neurotic
woman driver in heavy traffic.
1t isn't that the boys returning to
campuses from bitches in the Army,
Navy and Air Forces won't have the
stuff. There'll be more assorted
talent on the loose than ever before
when referees blow those starting
whistles. But returning stars, no
matter how good, are going to pro-
vide plenty of headaches for coaches.

THURSDAY -
Court Asserts 95S
OF Eviction Litigants
Have No Place 10 Go

Nearly 95 per cent of the persons
who come into landlord and tenant
court to fight eviction attempts have
no place to move, according to an
estimate by Judge Almond w. Scott
now presiding in the court.
Landlords, Judge Scott feels
often have legal right to gain
possession of their property. but not
always a moral right. in view of the
hardships the evictions place upon
their tenants"
On the other hand, the jurist
finds, it is often difficult to decide
who needs the home more-the
landlord or the tenant.
Veteran Seeks Home.
!. In a hearing yesterday, William
s. Kidd. a veteran, sought possess
sion of home he purchased under
the CT Bill of Rights at 1853 Talbert
terrace Sc. Attorney Jacob Halper
pointed out that Mr.. Kidd's wife is
expecting child next month, and
that their present living quarters
entail constant climbing of three
flights of stairs and unsatisfactory
heating arrangements.
But prospects of moving right
away appeared equally dificult for
the present tenant at the Talbert
terrace address, William H. Baer,
also a veteran.
Mr.. Baer, the court was informed,
must wait for tenants OF his new
home to move out, and his wife
is recovering from a recent opera
ton.
Grace Period Granted,
Judge Scott granted possession to
MIR. Kidd, but a 3o-day period of
grace was agreed to.
Actions pending before the
heavily -burdened court could be
speeded greatly by the addition of
Evening star., 1946-09-19

three new judges to Municipal Court,
Judge Scott declared.
George L. Hart, jr., at q recent
District Bar Association meeting
demanded that procedure be expe-
dited in the court to eliminate
such litigation as that in which a
bona fide purchaser of property was
prevented from taking occupancy
for more than a year because an
attorney had too many cases backed
up.
May Ask Jury Trials.
Defendants in landlord and ten
ant proceedings may request Jury
trials If they file answers to the
suits against them. The answers
may be based upon the defendants s
assertion he doubts the good faith"
Of the landlords claim he wants
possession for his own immediate
occupancy, that the notice served
upon him was defective, or some
other premise.
With more judges to dispose of
the jury trials, Judge Scott feels,
the periods of waiting for cases to
be heard would be considerably
llessened.
