NATIVE SERVICE
 ANNOUNCES L!ST
 SCH00LSCL0SED

The Alaska Native Service re- leased today list of schools which would not be reopened this fall, leaving an approximate 22a native children in 13 villages with out any school facilities unless ths communities affected can provide them.
 schools tc be closed with their average daily attendance, are; Ali talk, IS; Beaver, 12; Cllalkyitsik II; Circle, 25; Elephant Point, 20; Film, 26; Kasaan, 15; Nikolski, IS; Nondaltcn, 19 Nunachuk, IT; Solo, mon, 13; Stevens Village, 15; and Venetie, 26.
 In deciding which schools were to be closed, the ANS took into account primarily small daily at tendance, SC as to put the smallest possible number of children out of school, Dr. George A. Dale ANS Education Director stated.
 Other factors considered were the cost of freight to supply the school, and the condition of the school quarters and buildings.
 Blessings announced today are in addition to those previously an nCunced for schools in communi- ties in which Territorial schools all ready exist. These towns are Nome, Fort Yukon, Cordova, Haines, Ket- chikan, Juneau and Douglas.
 The town of Rake set splendid example for other all native com mmities, Dale said, when it be- came an Independent school dis trict. The ANS schools were taken over at both Hoonah and Sitka, and at Kanakanak the school was automatically closed because it had less than 10 pupils.
 With few exceptions, the larger communities in which the ANS has closed it's operations have signed use permits for the ANS buildings and equipment. Vigorous efforts are heing made by these communi- ties to privide school services for the children who were formerly cared for in the Native eSrvice schools, Dale declared.

Christian Science Lesson Sermon, Sunday Services

The supJecJ oI Ile Lesson~Ser- non which will be read in all Churches of Christ, Scientist. Sum- day, August IT, will be Soul"
 Golden Text: Isaiah. Lo, this is our God we have waited for him; and he will save us; this is the Lord; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.
 Excerpts from Christian Science sson-sermon:
 The Bible. Yea, in the way ol thy judgments, o Lord, have we waited for thee: the desire of our soul is to thy name, and to the remembrance of thee. uSaiah.)
 From Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, hy Mary Baker Eddy: The Science of being reveals man as perfect, even as the Father is perfect, because the Soul. CT Mind, of the spiritual man is God, the divine Principle of all being. and because this real man is governed by Soul instead of sense, by the law of Spirit, not by the so-called laws of matter.

GUERRILLA ACTIVITIES INCREASING
Greek Rebel Radio Says Independent Communist
 State Is Established
Ru L. & CHAKALES

ATHENS, Aug l6.-lR-Greek army announcements and press dispatches reported today a sharp increase in guerilla activity in the north within the past 48 hours. Hundreds of village homes were burned and many casualties were suffered by both sides.
 It appears that the first step has been taken toward establish ment of what some sources have termed free Communist state in northern Greece.
 The Greek government has been predicting the formation of such regime for some time, and now the rebel headquarters radio says it's a fact.
 < These reports followed last nights broadcast of the guerrilla headquarters radio asserting that the headquarters of Gen. Markos Cifiades. guerrilla chiefitan, had assumed authority for admins tering democratic government" until such time as provisional government is formed

but considerss an equal number

Force Adjustment
The unions: a formula for lay
ing oil employees BY seniority In
the event such action becomes
necessary Is asked.
The company The company Is
willing to recognize seniority In
this matter but wants to exempt
at least 10 per cent of personnel
in each classification under any
such formula 70 insure = reser-

employees with less than two
years service and reduce the
number Of days. absence before
the start OF payments.
The; company: The present plan
is considered to be one of the

from eight years. to five years is
asked. In no other industry are
to be found schedules as long as
those under which telephone en-
ployes work. Top operators ard
top craftsmen must work eight
years before getting the highest
scale figures. Broadcast engineers
and technicians, comparable
craftsmen, reach their top rate
after five years.
The company: Our progression COM
pares favorably with those in in
dustries requiring comparable
training. The company is obliged
to train its employees in telephone
industry methods. Broadcast en-
gineers and technicians are not
comparable to any telephone in
dustry craft, since they must pro-
vide themselves with high degree
OF technical training before they
are accepted for employment.
Vacations.
The unions: Three weeks vaca-
ton after 10 years service and
four weeks after 20 years is asked.
The company: The old contract
schedule of one week after one
year, two weeks after two years
and three weeks after Is years
is considered to compare favor
ably with plans in other indus
tries.
Pensions
The unions: A voice in administra-
ton of the Bell System pension
plan and increase in the minimum
monthly benefit from $50 to 500
is asked, the latter being con-
sidered the minimum on which
any pensioned employe normally
can subsist.
The company: The Bell System
pension plan is considered one of
the most generous in any indus
try. Since it is a unilateral plan
requiring no ennploye contribu-
tion, no claim for union partici-
patton in its management appears
justified. The company is ready
to consider any contributory plan
suggested by the unions.
Checkoff-
The unions: A checkof system
providing that the company de-
duct union dues and forward
them to the union treasurers is
asked.
The company: The old contract
provided a maintenance-of- -dues-
payment clause. If the company is
to handle bookkeeping on dues
collection, 1t feels it should be
paid fee by the unions for this
service.
