WARNING TO ANCHORAGE
 MERCHANTS
Army to Throw Open Com missary Unless Price
 Increases Stopped

ANCHORAGE Alaska, Oct. 29.- lR-The commanding officer of Ft Richard dson today served an ulti- matum on Anchorage merchants either apply the brakes to increas- Ing prices or the Army will throw open its ccmmissary to all War Department civilians living in An chorage
 The officer, Col. Harry Generous, said that since the beginning of the Pacific Coast maritime strike, he has received an cver-increasing list cf complaints from War De- partment employees living in An -horage.
 He asserted that the spread be- tween city prices and those at the commissary is from 40 to 60 per cent.
 opening the doors of the con- missary would mean feeding at least another 4.50O people, the Colonel said The Army intends to do that if necessary
 At present we don't have fac ilities for such an increase. It means engaging additional per- sonnell and expanding what we have. We'll keep the commissary open to them War Department personnel from then on"
 Generous said employees report prices at some stores, especially during the last few weeks, have risen as much at 30 per cent.
 He said a similar situation ex- isted during the l946 shipping strike. At that time, pressure from Anchorage merchants forestalled a similar move to open the com missaries to more people

HALLOWEEN TO BE ONE NIGHT ONLY,
 SAYS CHIEF HULK

Saturday evening has been declar- ed tricks or treat" night by Ber- nard Hulk Chief of Police. Chief Hulk wants all the kids in Juneau to have a good time on Halloween eve but requests that the celenra- ton be confined to only one night.
 The police department also issues a serious warning that anyone dam aging property or committing acts of vandalism will be prosecuted.
 For all newcomers to the con- munity, it might be well to enlarge on srnallfry's celebration of Hallow- cen in Juneau. The youngsters dressed as ghosts, goblins, and witch es, visit all houses in their neigh borhood and announce tricks or treat" If the unwary householder doesn't have candy fruit, or pop corn on hand to give to the chil- dren, he may end up with plenty of windows to wash the next day.

'Prefab' for 65 Below Is Designed Now

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-lR- Polar househunters, attention-The Navy has new aluminium ''prefab' designed for 65 below zero weather which dozen men can assemble in less than two hours with their mit- tens on.
 This coZy home is not intended for sale here but for military use in the Arctic
 The Navy said today it plans to put its new anti-freeze unit to the test this winter wien 16 Seabees will make it their home in Point Barrow, Alaska. First, however. the tarracks will be tried out next month in the Air Forces cold weather hangar at Elgm Field, Fla
 Tie structure, designed by Doug las Aircraft Co, comes in thick in- sulated panels. The walls of paper hcneycomb are covered with only two thin aluminium skins" yet the unit can withstand 50-mile- hour gales and the weight or IS 1ect O1 snow, the Navy said.
 Weighing about 10000 pounds. the Arctic barrack can be transported by plane and erected quickly by men bundled up from head to toe against the numbing cold, using only mal- let and socket wrench. The wrench, incidentally, also serves as part of the door handle.
 Whatever the temperatures out side. the 20 ry 48 feet house can be kept at a comfortable TO degrees with two oil-burning heaters, the Navy sad
 Both the Navy and the Air Force have been studying methods of liv- ing and fighting in the Far North Military experts do not expect large troop movements ever to be possible in Arctic snow, ice and sweeping winds, but an air attack over the North Pole is on their list of possi- bilities.
 A defense network of weather ard radar warning stations has been suggested along the top rim of AL aska. These would require housing linits, such as the one under test for men manning the Arctic out pnScs

Free House
 TraiIers for
 Alaska Now

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Oct. 29.- R-House trailers for emergency housing will be provided to Alas kan cities without cost, E. Glen Wilder, director of the Alaska Hous- ing Authority reported today. He said 488 deluxe units will be avail able. ns. f
 However, sites, utilities and possi- hly transportation will have to be furnished for the trailers. which are, at present, located in the Pacific Northwest. They are frog en' for Alaskan use. "'a
 Commenting on the housing crisis which makes the use of the trailers necessary, Wilder said:
 Something must be done. We have a waiting list for housing l9 years long. Judging from the current turnover, cities are going to lose people or have slums locat- ed cn their outskirts"
 These trailers must be strictly temporary rental quarters" Wilder said. If the cities desired, they could limit the occupancy to five years or any period they felt would carry them through the housing crisis"
 The trailers originally cost the government $500 each. They are fully equipped with ranges, heat CTS and refrigerators.

Choice of Paper Determines Final Print Results

'and buff. Your own good taste will
dictate the choice in this case.
Papersgcome in both single and
double weight. Which you use is
not material so far as the finished
appearance of the print is con-
cerned. However, for ease in ham
ding you will find double-weight
paper the more satisfactory. Single
weight paper curls the more easily
and will crack if not handled with
extreme care. If your prints are
larger than 8 by 10 inches you will
find the use of the heavier grade
almost essential.
You probably have wondered how
it is possible to run Photographic
papers through repeated immersions
without any bad effects such as
would occur with ordinary paper.
These papers are different-in sew
eral respects. The paper base is of
specially prepared, tough stock. 1t
is also chemically pure. Otherwise,
harmful reactions would take place
during the processing. This excel
|lent stock is coated with baryta,
which Is q gelatin-barium sulfate
compound, which increases the re-
flecting power of the paper and adds
to the brilliance of the finished
print. The emulsion which records
fyour picture Is coated over this
baryta base. ', -
Usable Under Safelight,
Because of its low sensitivity, you
will enjoy working in the darkroom
with printing papers. You can
freely handle both the contact and
the enlarging papers under safe
lights such as the yellow No. 90, the
No. O, orange-red, or the No. GA
yellow-green. If you are in doubt
about your safelight or its effect
upon the paper you are using, SIM
ply test 1t by exposing strips of the
paper to the light for varying de-
grees of time.
Almost every photographer you
meet will swear by some particular
brand of printing paper and urge
you to try it. The exception to this
rule is the photomaniac who insists
on stocking his darkroom with every
paper on the market. This charac-
ter is one worth staying away from
because a plethora of paper types
will only lead to confusion.
Also avoid trying out that favor
ite brand of the fellow next door.
Try around for a while, if you will,
and then, after finding the paper
that suits you best, stick to it. Use
the same paper in its varying con-
trast grades and learn its speed, and
you never will have a worry in the
printing room. But don't forget
that If you insist on having a dozen
different brands, you will be always
and forever making test strips to
arrive at the right exposure. It
will only take you a shsrt time to
learn all about one type of paper
| that suits YOU the best.

If your negative rs suffering from
too much or too little contrast, the
chances are that by selecting the
right grade of paper, you will be
able to produce very worthwhile
print.
Contrast degrees of Photographic
paper are usually designated by the
numerals, through S. No. / paper
is of low contrast, No. 2 is for
normal negatives, is medium
contrast paper, while 4 and S pa
pers are of increasingly greater con-
trast. Now let's see how they work
Flat Negative Treatment.
If your negative Is normal you
will use the normal paper and will
get normal print. So far, so good,
But what If your negative is fat?
Should this be the case and you
used low-contrast paper or nor

paper, orsif the negattt III
fiat you may have to resort To Oh
even more contraatv paper to get
a normal print, ss,.s....,.z ,.,.s,
i From the other extrelne Kheli&
your negative Is very t1astrssty, you
will find the right paper ~ going
down the scale toward the softer
grades. You will find, after a little
experience, that you will be able tc
obtain normal prints from a very
wide range Of negatives. In nc
time at all you will be able to glance
at a film and tell at once which
grade of paper on which it will
reproduce best.
Another governing factor in paper
selection is its surface or texture
If you want maximum detail and
clarity you should use glossy sur
faced paper. Other surfaces suit
able for portraiture and work where
fine detail and brilliance Is not
essential are the matte, semimatte
tapestry, canvas, etc. Some of these
are smooth while others are rough
in varying degrees.
Use Taste in Colors.
Since certain subjects are better
suited to white surface papers thar
others you will have to consider the
color factor, too. Papers range from
an almost pure white through cream

Final results in the District
Chess Championship Tournament
of 1948 are presented in the above
cross-table. Oscar Shapiro defeated
his last opponent, Zust, by out
playing him in an ending which
looked very even. Berliner could
not win the position which we gave
in notation last week, but had to
be content with a draw by perpetual
check. The outcome of these two
games gave first place and the
championship to Shapiro, second
prize to Hans Berliner, and third
prize to Martin Stark.
Oscar Shapiro, the new District
champion, was born in Boston in
1909. He first enaged in organized
