Lucas Says Senate
|WiII Defeat House
Tariff Act Changes
BY The Assoeioied Press

Senator Lucas, Democrat, OF n
linois predicted today the Senate
will scrap House provisions designed
to curb the Presidents power and
broaden the Federal Tariff Com
missions authority over foreign
trade pacts.
But Senator Butler, Republican,
of Nebraska said nearly all OF the
changes voted by the House in the
Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act
will be approved by the Senate.
Senator McGrath of Rhode Island,
Democratic national chairman, put
it this way:
'I am fairly optimistic that the
Senate will not emasculate the
trade program" He said the House
bill "very definitely would"
Bills Authors Called.
Both Senator Lucas, assistant
Senate minority leader, and Senator
Butler are members of the Senate
Finance Committee, which Is hold
ing hearings on the House bill.
The group called as witnesses to-
day Representative Gearhart, Re
publican, of California, author Of
the bill, and other hackers OF the
measure.
1t would empower the Tariff Com
mission to fix tariff limits beyond
which it felt the President could
not 20 in granting rate concessions
without hurting American industry.
In cases where the President ig-
nored commission recommendations,
his decisions would be subject to
congressional veto.
The House bill would continue the
trade program one year beyond
June II. The administration wants
a three-year extension without any
changes in the present law.
Can Defeat Amendments.
T am fairly certain" Senator
Lucas told reporters, that with the
Republican support we can get we
can defeat every amendment put in
by the House, with the possible ex-
ception of the one-year extension
provision. I think there is pretty
good chance of knocking that out,
too"
Senator Lucas prediction collides
with the views of some influential
Senate Republicans.
Chairman Millikin of the Finance
Committee and Senator Taft Of
Ohio, head of the COP Policy Com
mittee, have expressed themselves In
favor of limiting the Presidents
tariff making powers.

Newfoundland Votes Today
TO Decide Future Status
By the Associated Press

ST. JOHNS, Newfoundland, June
3.-Residents of this rocky island
colony, Britain's Oldest, vote today
to decide Newfoundland's future.
After a hot political campaign,
which at times reached the inten-
sity Of a civil war of words, the
voters are called on to make a
choice among three alternatives:
l. Shall Newfoundland join Can
ada as that dominion's 10th prov
ince?
! 2. Shall it return to independent
status, with responsible govern
ment, such as 1t had before 1884?
3. Shall it remain as 1t is, with
commission form of government
under q governor appointed by the
British crown?
Still another proposal-economic
union with the United States-was
injected into the campaign, but is
not on the ballot.
From 1884 to 1887, speculation in
Holland on tulip bulbs reached such
proportions that near panic followed
collapse of the boom.

WANT TO READ
In Your Interest
ALBERT S. GOSS, Mas ter, National Grange,

says:
 '@U. s. Savings Bonds I are a good investment Money invested in U. s. Savings Bonds works for Us in two ways. First, 1t earns interest Of from 7h% to 3%, depending on the typo of bonds bought. Second, it helps to hold down indation. Government obligations held by banks enable the banks to expand the extension of credit. This results in increas- ing the pressure of high purchas- ing power on a short supply of things to buy. To the extent that Savings Bonds reduce the obliga- dons so used, they will hold down inf1ation. Dollars spent for scarce goods that we can do without, tend to force prices higher. It seems al- together probable that when con- ditions level off prices will be low CT. If this is true, now is an unuSu- ally good time to get out of debt. It also follows that now is good time to lay aside money for future use in the form of U. s. Savings Bonds which will have a greater purchasing power at maturity than now. They are about the only in- vestment know of where the value is certain to increase"

MT. Hayslips suggestions are of- fered, not in a fault-finding man. ner. but rather as constructive criticism.
 In conclusion, MT. Hayslip said that he has received remarkable cooperation. from local residents in his work here and wishes to thank them for their considera- ton.

Small Boat Hurbor To Be Improved

MT w. H. Estes, city engineer and superintendent of the small boat harbor, reports that of the $18,000 allotted the project by the Territory, about $l2,000 is to be spent for materials for improve ment of the small boat harbor.
 All lumber and piling for floats and walks needed for the job are to be purchased locally on bid basis. Main trouble encountered to date sofas the project is the difficulty of obtaining the necessary hardware
 The ship Quackenbush is becom- ing more of a hazard to the har Dor as it is causing deposit of mud which is filling the area, and the ship will have to be removed from the scene within a very short time.

Christian Amond+, 07, Pioneer, Dies Here

Christian Amondt, well known Alaska pioneer, passed away Sun day, September l9, at the Seward General Hospital where he had been confined for several days.
 MT. Amondt was born November B, 1861, at Thurman, Norway, and was nearly 87 years of age at the time of his death. He came to the Territory in 1898, first to knik Sta ton. then to Susitna Station where he operated the store for several years. He was one of the main prOspectors in Sunrise and Lynx Creek areas and was one of the original founders of the settlement at Sunrise, where he made his home for 20 years until in l947 when he moved to the Ocean View Home at Seward.

Bremen Make Progress
 on Concrete Enginehouse

alibies are offered We only hope that after our building is con- pleted and the fire trucks moved in that we can put that much more time to maintenance and drilling. and instead of taking little long CT than expected to get salt water in the main that we can get it there quicker than ever before.)
 More time was needed in the construction of the building than contemplated. Therefore, the De- partment is behind schedule for the activities of the children. Skat- ing seems to be the most desired activity, judging from communi- cations and conversations with the various other organizations in town. The Fire Department wishes to get skating started just as soon as possible, but it will probably take some help and time and money from all the other organi- Zations in town to get the skating underway in satisfactory man. ner. Last winter passed without the children getting any skating. With the combined efforts of ev- eryone interested there should be no difficulty getting the sport un- derway by the time cold weather sets in.
 There will be a firemens meet ing Wednesday evening, Sept P, at 8 o'clock.

Rate Revision to Greatly Lower Future Insurance

w. l. Hayslip, surveyor for the
 Pacific Fire Rating Bureau, has
 been in Seward since Wednesday
 and expects to leave Thursday
 morning.
 MT. Hayslip operates directly through Frank Boyle. insurance
 commissioner for the Territory, who, according to the Pacific Fire Rating Bureau office, is well quail flied for the position and is doing
 fine job.
 Hayslip is principally checking fire insurance rates which are be- ing put under new schedules
 which have not applied formerly in the Territory and which will give the individual risk some pref erence as to hazards involved over
 the old method of rating. This should develop some reductions in round figures of approximately 10 to 20 per cent over town; however,
 some risks may receive slight in-
 creases.
 After four days of inspection.
 Hayslip find the town to be very
 clean in regard to debris, etc., in
 alleys and back yards. In other words, Stewards housekeeping is good.
 On the other hand. Hayslip states he found many fuel oil
 drums and tanks on wooden tow
 CTS and in few cases on roofs, (which constitutes an extreme fire
 hazard. It is understood that Q new city ordinance will be en- forced immediately which will
 take care of this particular haz- ard.
 Sunday evening the fire alarm sounded call to Chuck's Cafe A check on times showed-from time to call to siren, 20 seconds. one piece of equipment was at the
 door in less than five minutes. From the time of the call until
 water was forthcoming from the salt water pumps-27 minutes. MT. Hayslip offers the suggestion that a remote control switch be installed with the siren switch so the electric salt water pump can be turned on at the same time as
 the siren in order that no time be
 lost in getting pressure into the
 sclt water mains. The cost of rum

FIRE AT MANTHEY HOME MONDAY MORNING

The fire alarm Monday morning at lO:30 brought the Army-City and dock fire trucks to the Man. they home on End Ave, within two minutes of the time the alarm was given. An overloaded smoke stack was the cause of the furor and no damage was reported.
