 Tuberculosis can be treated in Alaska very successfully" stated pr .Gehrig The first sanatorium in Alaska was opened in April of l945 at Skagway, and since has been moved to Sitka on Alice Is- land
 A second tuberculosis hospital has been opened at Fort Raymond in Seward, where the Army hospi- tai was turned over to the Terri tory. The Health Department has leased it in turn to the Methodist Church Mission Board, which op- crates the hospital.
 Even with these two hospitals, and with the planned construction of new permanent sanatorium on Japonski Island at Sitka by the Federal Government, there will still be Insufficient beds for treatment of all of Alaska s tuberculosis cases.
 However" concluded Dr. Gehig, we can break the chain of infec- tion, and eventually it will be pos sible to curb the terrible inroads made by the disease in Alaska"
 Also present at the luncheon with Dr. Gehrig were Doctors McMinimy and Marshall Other guests were H. L. Macdonald and Paul Mon roe.

TUBERCULOSIS IN
 AlA5KA OUTLINED
 FOR KIWhNlS CLUB

Juneau Kiwanis Club members, at their regular noon luncheon meeting heard Dr. Leo J. Gehrig, senior assistant surgeon on loan from the U. s. Public Health Ser vice to the Territorial Department of Health.
 Dr. Gehrig is in charge of the Health Departments campaign against tuberculosis in Alaska, and speaking to the Club, the doctor outlined the problem and expli fnd the program
 tuberculosis" said pr. Gehrig, "Is Alaskas number one health problem. The death rate in the Territory is comparable to that in India and China, and nine times as high as the tuberculosis death rate in the United States
 The disease has @ nigh Incidence among the native population, he explained, but the tuberculosis germ is net at all particular, and strikes heavily at the white people as well.
 Up until the present time, as many as 50 percent of the cases in Alaska have diagnoses for the first time when the patient died. Ac- cording to surveys, explained Dr. Gehriig, this means that for each person who lives a normal lie at home and in business, and eventu- ally dies of undiagnosed tubercu- losis, nine other persons are in- fected.
 A new weapon in the battle against tuberculosis is bein g brought into the field, said Dr. Gehrig. This is streptomycine, which in experimental use has been shown beneficial. It is now being produc- ed commercially, and will soon be put on the market for general use.
 The program of the Territorial Health Department is being admin iStered under the two main dlvl- sicns of Case Finding and Treat ment. The Federal Government aids the Territory with matching funds for the Case Finding program.
 In a large-scale effort to locate early cases of tuberculosis among the people of Alaska, in order to treat it in time to save the patient.

Govt. Grain Buying Responsible For
 High Grain Prices

WASHINGTON, CP)-A govern ment move to curb grain specula- ton collided Saturday with an as- Sertion by the nations big ex changes that federal buying for export is to blame for skyrocke;- ing prices.
 The answer to lower grain prices is to stop exporting grain" declared J. o. McClintock, presi- dent of the Chicago Board of Trade.
 McClintock said the exchanges "are not offering that as solu- ton" and are only interested in bringing out the true facts"
 Speaking for the Chicago. Min neapolis and Kansas City markets he proposed a Congressional i1- vestigation, declaring it would prove that speculation on the fu- lures markets has not been the cause of advancing grain prices" '"
 McClintock's blast was issued Friday night after a conference with agriculture department off cials who asked the exchanges to double margin requirements on futures buying. Such an increase would raise margins-cash on the line-to 331a per cent of the value of the grain. On wheat the mar gin would go from 45 to 90 cents a buShel.
 The Chicagoan said the eX- changes did not reject the request but there was no conclusion reached" either on the original proposal or his counter-offer of a variable scale of margin require ments." He gave no details of the scale he mentioned.
 Secretary of agriculture Ander- son agreed that government buy ing for foreign shortage areas has affected prices, but told reporters: Tt was a question of getting grain for hungry people abroad"
 We would be happy to have Congress investigate us," he add- ed.
 In its buying, the agriculture de-

Yankees, Dodgers All Set For World Series Tomorrow

NEW YORK, CH') - Freshman Frank Spec Shea, named by manager Bucky Harris to pitch to- morroW'S world series opener for the New York Yankees, probably will be opposed by 2lyear-old Ralph Branca, Brooklyn's ace 2l- game winner, with Lefty Vic Lom- bardi a strong second choice.
 Harris tabbed Shea, the first American league rookie ever to hurl the first game of series, for opening duty after yesterdays sea- son final with the Athletics, but manager Burt Shotton still re- fused to name his starting Dodger.
 Branca, the top man of the staff on the won and lost records, 2l-l2, is the best bet. Leo DurOcher made the mistake of using a sleeper" Curt Davis in the l94l opener be- fore pitching his ace, Whit Wyatt, and he never got out of the barrel. If Branca works tomorrow he'll be ready to come back fully rested for the fifth game. A full three day rest is a must" for Branca who is not effective with less. If Shotton operates on the the ory that lefthanded pitching is his best bet against the Yankees; he may call on Lombardi, a half pin southpaw who makes up for lach of a coming fast ball with a cute curling curve and good control.
 Outside of some concern abou catcher Bruce Edwards, whose right finger tips have been bat. tered by four tips, the Dodger' were in good shape for their f;na tune-up at Ebbets Field this morn. ing. Edwards will, of course, start but Shotton used Bobby Bragaf yesterday in Boston just in case Bruce's fingers may not be able tt 1 take further battering in the ser. | ies.
 The Yankee lineup will carry no surprises. Harris disclosed nc will follow his customary battin: order with George StirnWeisS a second base, Tommy Hearlch il right field, Larry Berra, catching Joe DiMaggio in center field George McQuinn at first base, 3il Johnson at third base, Johnn. Lindell in left field, Phil Riuzzut; at shortstop and Shea, whose sea son record is l4-5. Should a lefty start for the Dodgers, Berra vii start but he will bat eighth witf Lindell moving to third and Rizz uto seventh.
