PETERSBURG, Alaska, Sept. 27.- At the fishery regulations hearing yesterday, shrimp packers asked for the reopening of Duncan Canal, lat CT dates for the beginning and end ing of the closed season and a change in the manner of measuring shrimp to determine legal size. The shrimpers claim Duncan Can al does not differ from other shrimp areas, and is not special nursery area, also that a closed season be- ginning two weeks later would better cover the spawning period of shrimp. Seiners asked that no arbitrary dates be set for opening and ending the salmon season, proposing that it be flexible at both ends with no fishing until after necessary escape ment has been assured.
 Alternative Proposal
 They also recommended as an all formative proposal to abolish of fish traps, that spiller tunnels be pulled up during closed periods, and spill lers emptied within 12 hours of the beginning of any closed period.
 Seiners also request D. m closing times and 6 am. openings, with AS hours notice of openings; and ask that copies of the regulations be furnish ed each boat before the beginning of the season.
 Trollers say traps catch a large number of small kings, and ask abolition on that ground. They also ask that $100 nonresident fishing license be set, establishment of hatcheries on principal Southeast Alaska streams, and similar tolerance on taking halibut to that allowed black cod fishermen.
 Remove Restrictions
 The trollers also ask removal of all restrictions on taking dolly var den trout, bounty on seagulls and sealions, and continuation of the bounty on hair seals.
 Gill netters cite hair seal as their principal problem on the Stikine River. estimating that there are from 600 to 1000 seals in the river area this year. They proposed a government hunter as the best an- swer to the problem.
 Bounty on SealiOns
 Halibut men are more concerned with the reduction of the numbers of sealions, urging either that a bounty be placed on them or that the government hunt them.
 All fishermen groups are much concerned with possible pulp mill damage to fisheries, and ask that mills be required to purify their waste before dumping into streams or salt water.

Oppose Moving
 } Setions of First Grade
 To Old Native School

Immediately after the con- clusion of the public hearing last wight, the School Board re- convened. In this session it was moved, seconded and passed that the fifth grade students of the Juneau schools be trans ierred to the Willoughby Avenue School. The Superintendent was instructed to employ third fifth grade teacher, as this class was nearing the limit in size that could be efficiently handled.
 The Superintendent was also instructed that inasmuch as fifth grade students, rather than first grade students were to be transferred, it would not be nec- essary to set up program for the serving of hot dish at the Willoughby school, nor would it be necessary to operate any ad- ditional transportation for pupils of this age such as was under discussion when the first grade transferal was being considered.

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON = It's an ill wind that blows nobody good, ac- cording to Congressman John Rankin of Mississippi, now run- ming like a jackrabbit for the Sen- ate seat of the late Theodore Bill bo.
 The potentate of Tupelo has now stopped so low as to make political hay of the hurricane and the de- vastation it brought to his home state.
 g Sunday, Rankin stayed glued to the radio in his Washington apartment, carefully noting the places damaged by floods and wind. Ffs
 By noon he had a sizeatle list of i, stricken Mississippi towns Tf.ereupon he prepared a press release demanding that the Presi- dent call Congress into special session to aid the storm victims.
 Not content with giving this to ,sthe press associations, Rankin telegraphed the statement to key newspapers in Mississippi.
 In addition, he wired the may ors of Mississippi towns, telling them of his demand on the White House.
 Monday, the ingenious gentleman from Mississippi went even furth- CT. He asked for an appoint ment with President Truman to register his demand for special ! session. Truman, however, had just stepped off the boat from Rio, had already scheduled conferences

By a clamorous majority, 78 par ents attending meeting called by Juneau School Board last evening disapproved of the Boards decis- ion to move the three sections ot the First Grade to the Willough- by Avenue School.
 The meeting was called by the Board because of the protest that was raised when they made pub- lie announcement last Tuesday that the first graders would be transferred to the former native school.
 Dr. Joseph Rude, President of the School Board, presided at the meeting. He said the meeting had been called so that the parents would know the various alterna- tive plans that had been under consideration and how the board had arrived at it's ultimate decis- ion. He concluded by saying that anyone who had better plan of action would be allowed to express it.
 Edwin c. Clark, Juneaus new superintendent of schools, stated the position of the Board and said the problem was not whether the school would operate but "who would go?" He said that the native children couldn't be return ed to the school because of the Alaskan Territorial non Eiscrim- inatory law.
 He said the first plan taken un- der consideration was to take chil- dren from grades one to six that lived in the vicinity, adding that 7th and 9th grades weren't consid- cred because they use the home economies and manual training facilities of the High School. He said if this were done it would require continuation classes, two grades being in one class room.
 Another Plan
 The next plan put forth was that the first, second, and third graders who live in the vicinity, attend the school. He said that the diff culty that arose then was that there would be majority of na- tive children in each grade.
 MT. Clark continued by saying that the next solution would be to take an entire grade to that school, and the problem then arose which grade. Because the four tn, fifth and sixth grades use gym facilities of the grade school, the Board rested it's decision among the first three grades. He said concerning the second and third grade, Tt seems rather strange logic that would cause you to favor letting your child start at the Fifth Street School here, go to the Willoughby School, then come back here.
 Text Book Question
 He said that the advantages of placing the first graders there were that all the teachers would be operating on the same time schedule and that 1t would facili- tate the transference of text books The grade is divided into three sections, and books are first used in one section and then in the next. If we separated them, we would have to buy books for all our new pupils or have them transported back and forth"
 He said that the third factor was that the Fifth Street Schoo

tions and the Federation OF Busi-

Mrs. Edward B. Morris, executive
secretary, showed the group a High
way Department blue print, which
would provide for underground

fare would cost about 81 100000 and
would take about two years to COM
plete, according to the department.
Charles A. Barker, member, said
the Capital Transit Co. might offer
better plan at the Public Utilities
Commission hearing at 10 am. next
Wednesday in the District Building
when proposals will be considered.

SOME FACTS ABOUT COAL

Many people observing the apparently endless labor
troubles that beset the soft coal industry may have come
to the conclusion that the miners overworked lot
labor1ng long hours at starvation wages
So some facts recently released by the National Coal
Association are deserving of widespread recognition
In August the average weekly earnings bituinous
coal miners $623-a higher average weekly earnings
figure than reported by any other industry the United
States 1t was 1918 per cent higher than in 1899
The rise in the cost of living between 1889 and August
1916 the other hand 446 per cent according to the
Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The coal miners hourly earnings in August averaged
Sl467-an increase of 658 per 1941 So whether
wages figured weekly hourly basis it is ap-
parent that they have far the cost of living
1t has been said that the miners must work "a hour
Week-because some mines work six days week-so1ne
weeks But very few miners work all the six DAYS In
june for example for which government figures are avail
able the average work week 429 hours
Again, one hour of the nne-hour work day is spent
theoretically at least in travelling back and forth to the
working place That that while the miner actually
works only eight hours he gets paid for nine
Lastly the standard work week in the industry now
80 hoursand all time worked IS hours is paid for at
the rate of and one-haf
These are facts-and they will come as real news to
millions of people. They indicate that the United Mine
Workers leadership not much concerned with wages
and hours is with ruthless mtess domination of
great industry.
