 CALEDONIA
 E p055lbLE

E. J. Bob" Logan, Board of Marine Underwriters, is hopeful that the power barge Caledonia wrecked a week ago on the shores near La Perouse Glacier, north of Icy Point, may be saved
 With Cal Ward, former car rier pilot who operates out of Yakutat, Logan landed on the rocky beach Saturday afternoon, made survey of the wreck, came to Juneau Sunday to confer with Capt. Kai Jensen and to arrange to have supplies for sal- wage flown to the wreck
 "The bottom is out of the Gale donia, hut if the weather is good, there is a chance to salvage the ship" said Logan who then added praise of his pilot who made a remarkable landing among the boulders on the beach," / The Chris Craft luxury cruiser aboard the Caledonia is in good condition after the storm, accord ing to Logan, and it, too will be saved.
 Logan, who is well-known in Ju- neau, first came north on an Alaska Packers sailing ship in 1922. During the war he was District Salvage officer for the navy. His home is in Cordova, and his wife, Hazel Rosswog, a former Douglas girl.

 Mountjoy was accompanied by Dale Belcher, Assistant Director of Native Resources and Charles H. Rouse, biologist for the Fish and Wildlife Service. The trip was made in FWS plane and the pilot was Walt White.
 Mountjoy reported that the criti- cal food situation at Barrow had Eeen alleviated by the ice closing in for three-week period, after it opened in July. The Eskimos caught a sufficient supply of seal during the period when the ice was closed in to allow them winters supply.

M0UNTJ0Y RETURNS y FROM INSpE(Tl0k
 OF REINDEER HERDS

Charles R. Mountjoy, Director of Native Resources for the Alaska Na- tive Service, returned Sunday fol- lowing an inspection of reindeer herds in the Boring and Arctic Sea areas. Mountjoy reported that there is noticeable variation in tn e hsrds; the herds owned by individ- uals are increasing while the herds owned by associations are generally decreasing. He said decrease in some areas is. due to the reindeer being killed by wolves and in other areas, where the caribou are prevalent, the reindeer join the cariaou herds and migrate to other areas. Mount joy said that Nunivak Island is now stocked with reindeer and more

STORMS BATTERED CALEDONIA FROM
 UGANlk TO ICY pT.

What caused the Caledonia wreck?
 Capt. Kai Secher-J Jensen knows Storms. One storm after an- other from the time the power barge left Uganik Bay Monday
 until it landed on the beach near Icy Point the following Sun day night. the Captain said III Juneau Sunday.
 They were held by storms al Kodiak until Tuesday morning There were bad storms from ko- diak to Cape Ellington More storms delayed them at Port San Juan and again at Port Etches.
 From Care Hinchinbrook they were unable to see land.
 Capt. Secner-Jense expected 70 reach Cape Spencer at l am. Sun day morning. The night was black, stormy seas raging and no land fall had been made at l2 mid night. so Capt. Secher-Jensen turned back on his course and went slowly out to sea, fearful that in the night and storm the Caledonia might go aground.
 "At daylight we turned around on our course again and sighted lev Point at 12 noon on Sunday. We just held our own" he said. i've didn't go back or ahead
 After 24 hours of heavy beat ing. the seas broke her open at 6:3O D. m Sunday"
 From the moment that happen ed. Capt. Secher- Jensen knew where he wanted to go.
 There was only one spot to leach, in a break between two glaciers. We had her going full speed ahead but it was the long, est two hours and ten minutes l ever spent in my life-until we hit the beach at 8:30," the captain said.
 High praise was given the Coast Guard by Capt Secher-Jensen, and Coastguardsmen Warren w. Jones and James R. Williams who risked their lives, were nearly drowned trying to come ashore from the Citrus in a rubber raft with which it was planned to rescue the stranded Caledonia crew and pass engers.
 The boys and crew aboard the Caledonia were wonderful, too, the captain said There was never a murmur from anyone. We were cold and wet and hungry, had to wade chest-deep across glacier riv- CTS. Ralph Van Dalen almost drowned, and another man almost drowned trying to save him. Final ly we were all sort of weak with to eat but mussels and there weren't many nussels-and one seagut. But esprit de. corps Was high"

Armed Services Program Urgent

WASHINGTON, (P) - A House armed services subcommittee will demand that Republican leaders pin a .'must" tag this week on $353, 100000 worth of army, navy and airforce construction.
 The projects, already trimmed down from a S5,0O0,000,000 re- quest, have been awaiting con- gressional approval since last year.
 Chairman Bates R-MassJ told reporters today the services can not shave another nickel off their program, and congress should get it rolling without more delay.
 The chairman said the $353,- 00O,00O asked would finance a good start on essential projects, but the bill probably would run to S5O0,0O0,00 before the work could be finished.
 The air force wants $3,500, ,000 to build two secret installations in New Foundland, $12,270,677 for air fields in the Mariana Islands in the Pacific, and $20,694,850 to improve Ladd Field in Alaska at Fairbanks.
 The overseas program would cover approximately S16,000,000 for navy activities at Adak, Alas ka.

Ships And Subs Ready for Turkey

WASHINGTON (PD-Four pow erful, long range submarines are getting ready for their last voyage under the American flag.
 Destined for Turkey as part of American military aid, they are now at New London, Conn, but it has been generally understood they will leave some time next month.

Ask Wage Hike for Railroad Men

WASHINGTON, (P-A Presi- dential emergency board recom- mended today that locomotive en- gineers, firemen and switchmen should get a wage raise of 15A cents an hour, retroactive to last November 1.
 The railway labor act requires the three brotherhoods to keep working for 30 days. After April 26 they will be free to strike if they want to.
 The board, headed by William M. Leiserson, made it's report to- day to President Truman.
 Besides the wages, the dispute involved 37 proposed changes in working rules.
 The brotherhoods had demand ed a 30 per cent wage boost with a $3 per man daily minimum in- crease.
 The boards wage proposal would give the three brotherhoods the same benefits received by the trainmen and conductors - the other two operating brotherhoods. The trainmen and conductors set tied last November for 151s cents effective Nov. 1. A 1512 cents an hour raise amounts to SPA a day.

AL. CiO Ropped
BY Henry WoIIoce
Progressive Party

! Philadelphia (LPA)-You might
think that the friendly witnesses
who testified at the platform hear
ings of Henry Wallace's Progress
sive party had enough to do attack
ing big business, the Republicans,
the Democrats, and "the war-mon-
gers" But, in fact they had enough
time left over to denounce the AFL
and CIO too.
Mrs. Judy Peterson Newman, n
I nice looking gal of about %, who
uses excellent perfume, spoke for
the Council for the Advancement Of
the Americans. She considers her
self something Of an expert on
Latin American trade unionism.
The AFL, by its support of,the
Confederation Of Inter-American
Labor (CIT) is wrecking the Latin
American labor movement, Mrs.
Newman said. Latin American
unionists who have joined the CIT
are all "dissentients," tools of Yam
kee Imperialism, and other nasty
things, in her opinion. The young
lady admitted, however, that the
CIT has been very successful.
But, she said it's this wrecking
activity Of the AFL which accounts
for the existence Of the Friends Of
Wallace movement in Latin Ameri-
ca.
Under the encouraging eye Of
Lee Pressman, former CIO gen
eral counsel, Gerald Schaflander,
state director Of the Pennsylvania
Progressive Party, attacked the
leadership of the AFL, the United
Mine Workers, and then went -
work on CIO President Philip Muir
ray.
He accused Murray of "collabor-
alton with the leadership of the
Steel industry" and said that under
Murray's policies the United Steel
workers has become corrupt"
Schaflander said that he was di-
rector of education for the Penn
sylvania shirtworkers division of
the Amalgamated Clothing Work
ers-CIO before going to work for
the Wallace party.
Pressman seemed to be the domi-
nant figure on the platform com
mittee. Once committee chairman
Rexford Tugwell told reporters who
were quizzing him to put their
questions to Pressman, if they
wanted conclusive answers.
Experienced newsmen who cor-
cred the platform hearings observ-
ed that at least one-third of its 70
members are men and women-with
a long background in pros -Commur-
ist activity.

WHAT'S COOKIN,?
THs osrvEs Posi-

You'll give fish fillets that are
to be baked or broiled a more de-
licious flavor if you brush them
first with mayonnaise.
All fish is more tempting if
served with a delicious sauce. Tar
ter sauce is one of the most com
mon and is made by / cup of may
onnaise with l tblspn. each of
minced pickles, or pickle relish,
minced parsley, minced capers and
minced onion.
For a cucumber sauce, which is
delicious on cold salmon, simply
add one cup of finely diced cucum-
bers to one cup of mayonnaise and
a dash of lemon juice, salt and pep
per.
The simplest sauce to serve with
fish is a lemon-butter sauce, made
by blending a tblspns, melted but
ter or margarine, the juice of half
lemon, dash of salt and pepper and
l tspn. minced parsley.
To skin smoked beef tongue
plunge the hot cooked tongue into
cold water Immediately. This
loosens the skin which should be re-
moved starting at the large end.
Tongue ground and mixed with
seaoning, and used in sandwiches
and salads can seldom be distin-
guished from the more expensive
ham.
For a quick and delicious lunch
con dish, slice hard cooked eggs in
bottom of creased casserole. Cow
er with a can of mushroom soup.
Top with crushed potato chips and
bake 80 minutes.
You can keep parsley fresh for
months at a time if you place it
in a mason jar while damp. Seal
it and set jar in refrigerator.
Shish kabobs can be made on
your outdoor grill or in your kitch-
EN- range and are easy to prepare.
The secret is the sauce in which
the meat is marinated. You need /
lb. boned lamb cut in one inch
cubes. Soak this overnight in sauce
made of "a cup salad oil, "a cup
vinegar, bay leaves, salt and
pepper, / Glove crushed garlic, y
cup minced onion. After soaking
drain on paper, and place on skew
ers, alternating with tomato slices,
onions or mushrooms. Broil under
hot flame 20 minutes, browning all
sides.

Hartley Decides tn Act Not Perfect
Proposes Three Changes In The Law
Washington. d. 6. HLNSl

Washington, ID. c. (ILNS) -
Representative Fred A. Hartley
Of New Jersey has decided that
the Taft Hartley labor law is not
perfect, after all. He said here
he was inclined to support some re-
vision of the law during the spec
ial session Of Congress, including
elimination Of the NLRB elections
before union shop can be set up
under labor contract.
Organized labor has vigorously
attacked the provisions for union
shop elections as a waste of time
and money. The union shop has
been endorsed overwhelmingly in
virtually all the elections held to
date.
Hartley proposed two other chan
ges in the act, as follows:
Inclusion Of a provision under
which employers as well as un-
ion officials be required to sign
oaths to the effect that they were
not Communists in order to seek in
tervention Of the National Labor
Relations Board in a labor dispute.
A banning of force or intimida-
tion in any way to keep nonstrik-
ing workers off their jobs during
strike.
"The only question:" Hartley
said, "is whether work looking to
the revisions should begin at this
time or whether it should await
the report Of the joint committee
set up as "a Watchdog over leg
islation enacted by the 80th Con-
gress. 1t may be that the leadership
will want to await this report be
fore proceeding with changes in
the Taft Hartley law"
1t was also suggested in congress
sional quarters that the leadership
might not want the question of
labor-law revisions brought up at
the new session. The Democratic
platform, adopted in Philadelphia,
called for outright repeal Of the
law.
Hartley said that if the COP
leadership frowned upon an open
ing up of the labor law during the
coming session, he would postpone
action until the opening of the 8lst
Congress in January.
Hartley said, in speaking of his
proposal to include employers in re-
quirements for a giving Of non
Communist oaths, that some quar-
ters might have construed the pre-
sent provision as an onus on labor
unions.
If stigma had been implied, he
said, he would be glad to see it
removed. He added, however, that
the clause was directed at indica-
tions that Communists were trying
to infiltrate labor unions, not man
agement
