YOU away. Aven som some of the
South Siders out for our dance

were passed out, and on the
stroke of II a blast of honns was
made to be heard for blocks a.
rouDd--and that is not an cxaS-
Seration either.
Every once in a while YOU
could catch glimpse of Danny
Salmen rushing aroud to see if
all stations were in tact. and that
man with the money-counting job
was our treasurer Ernie Lop-
rich. Lii Mark was the iemaie
Mercury of the evening attending
to Jobs assigned to her :. every

little things that had to be done,
and all | can say, oh what swell

TEN WAYS TO KILL A
LODGE:

/. Don't come to the meetings.
2. But if you do--come late.
3. If the weather doesn't suit you,
don't think of coming.
4. If you attend meeting, find fault
with the work and the officers and
members.
). Never accept an office, it is easier
to criticise than to do things.
6. Nevertheless, get sore if you are
not appointed on committee; but if
you are, do not attend the meetings.
Z. If asked by the chairman to give
your opinion on some important mat
ter, tell him you have nothing to say.
After the meeting, tell everyone how
things should be done.
s. Do nothing more than is absolute
ly nee essary, but when other members
roll up their sleeves and willingly and
unselfishly use their ability to help
matters along, howl that the organiza-
tion is being run by clique.
9. Hold back your dues as long as
possible, or don't pay them at all.
10. Don't pay any attention to new
mcmbers-"Let George do it,"

KRUG CALLS MASS SETTLING
 OF ALASKA FANTASTIC

CHICAGO-secretary of the h. terior Krug said this week that suggestions for settling from goo poo to 2.0O0.000 displaced per sons Of Central Europe in Alaska are fantastic and Irresponsible"
 Krug. in an address before the Inland Press Association. said such settlement program would be "a disservice both to the immigrant Europeans. to the Alaskans now resident, and to the people of the present #S states.
 T would like to see a real re- fuge provided for the suffering people or Europe. krug said, "bul it won't work in Alaska on a scale of 100000 or 2.o00,000 more peo- pie Perhaps 10000 to 10000 more persons could be absorbed in various service and secondary jobs with present industrial and agri- cultural facilities.
 Alaska has more than milk anu honey to offer. but its resources need the application of labor an6 machine and technological and management skiils. In practical terms. the only way we can in crease the population o1 Alaska ls by the establishment of new busi- nesses, new farms, new industrIaI plants, new shows and new stores. '
 Declaring that pulp and paper industry in Alaska would require d large supply of additional labor he added:
 Development of the pulp anu paper industry to a reasonable I-teI of sustained capacity will re- suit ln year-around employment ot a minimum Of 6,0O0 persons In the mIles ana forests. introduction ot thIs working force into the Ter Itory would Jump the population oI southeast Alaska rom zo,OO0 to sO,UVU NIthIu lew years.

CONGRESS TO ACT
 IN ESTABLISHING SHIP
 SERVICE TO ALASKA

WASHINGTON - Representa- live Jackson lD-WAsH.) announe- led this week that he and Repre- sentative Herter CR Mass.) were Introducing legislation to authorize the Maritime Commission to estab- fish steamship service to Alaska through contracts with private ship . operators.
 The Commission has been oper- ating service to Alaska. with the steamship owners acting as agents. but its authority expires Feb. 2S.
 The operators announced that if the lines were returned t oth m they would not operate them un- less given an increase in rates.
 Jackson and Herter. members of the House Merchant Marine Com mittee. prepared their legislation after conferences with the owners and Maritime Commission experts The same measure, Jackson said is to be introduced in the Senate today by Senator Magnuson lD- Wash1. an d Majority Leader White lR.-Mainel chairman Of the Senate Commerce Committee.
 The House Committee will hold hearings on the measure, under a plan for a House vote neXtweak
 The legislation. a joint congress sionaI resolution. would authorize the Commission to enter into contract with American citizens qualified to provide necessary sess- ice to the Territory. The Commits sion could make available goyern- ment owned vessels at nominal charter hire, with the government furnishing the marine insurance. The operators would be required 10 furnish such service as che Commission may direct to secure the most economical operation.
 The measure provides that the operators must apply income to the expenses of operation.
 6 Per Cent Profit
 If there are profits the opera tors will be allowed an amount equal to 10 per cent of their in vested capital before taxes. which Jackson said would amount to six per cent after taxes. All profits a. boye 10 per cent would go to the commission and for insurance costs.
 The measure will permit such operation until not later than June 80. 1946, to provide interim service until Congress can work out a per manent plan for steamship service to the Territory
