Fishing
 Industry
 Warned

SAN FRANCISCO, April 8-tRt- Rep. Thor c. Tollefson R-Wash.D warned the fishing industry today it faces the stiffest competition in its history from Russia and other countries.
 Russia has the most efficient fishing fleet in the world, Tollefson said in an address delivered before the National Fisheries Institute.
 "On the Eastern shores of Siber- ia,' he continued, The Russians have shown great activity in inn proving port, dock and harbor fa- cilities. I hope their sole interest here is confined to fish"
 Since the end of the war, Tollef- son said, Russia had attempted to obtain from Ecuador fishing rights in the Galapagos Islands off the West Coast of South America

.L0NGSH0REMEN
 MIGHT PICKET
 JUNEAU SPRUCE
Local Union Refused Juris- ditfion Over Barge
 Lodders

Local longshoremen have been turned down by the Juneau Spruce Corporation in their request fol jurisdiction over men loading JSC | lumber barges. At a meeting last night, between JSC officials and representative of the CIO Inter- national Longshoremen and Ware housemen's Union and the CiL Sawlnill Workers Union. the Spruce Corporation refused to discharge three SWU men and hire six ILWU members to take their place. F. s. Hawkins, Juneau Spruce mahager said today that he was perfectly satisfied with the present conditions and had no desire tc make change.
 He said that if he hired the six ILWU men to take the place oi the three SWU workers, the ILWU would insist on six hour day with time and a half wages foi more than that period in addition to time and half for work done before a. m. and after 4 p. m
 He said that the ILWU insisted that the time and half pro- vision would also apply when its men had worked on a boat, else where in the harbor, and then come over to Juneau Spruce, nc matter what time of day.
 Hawkins said that the ILWU Threatened to put a picket line in front of the Juneau sawmill He declared that the SWU repre- sentatives had said they would be forced to respect the pickets ano thus shut down the sawmill
 If the ILWU does force shut down of the mill, Hawkins stated that Juneau Spruce will sue the Union under the provisions of the Taft Hartley Act for damages caus- ed by loss of operations and revenue.
 He explained that in meeting competition for lumber Juneau Spruce has to take loss on its freight costs and also pay higher costs of operations and higher wages than it's competitors in the States. He said that the company can't stand the extra expense which would be incurred by the ILWU demands.
 The Sawmill Workers Union told Hawkins that 1t doesn't want to shut down the mill, but it would be forced to respect the picket mes. Hawkins said he believes that the sawmill workers have been "misled" by the longshore- men.

STATEHOOD BILL E GIVEN BOOST,
 SAYS BARTLETT

WASHINGTON, April 8.-tR-- Delegate Bartlett of Alaska hailed final House committee approval of the Alaska statehood bill today as real victory for those who be- lieve Alaska can prosper as It should only if it becomes a state."
 But the bill has long and possibly tedious path to travel be- fore it becomes law and Alaska is admitted as a state. It must first be approved by the House Rules Committee and then by the House.
 From there is goes to the Sem ate Interior Committee which pro- oably will order hearings held on the measure. If and when that committee approved the measure, it must be passed by the Senate.
 Indications were that this long procedure might prevent it reach ing the Senate floor this year
 Bartlet said the action of the Public Lands Committee in elimi- mating from the measure words granting recognition of tribal rights in the Territory did not impair rights of Indians, Aleuts and Es- kimos in the proposed new state.
 Quite obviously the question of those rights will be settled in oth- CT ways than in the statehood bill" Bartlett said. If that settle ment is by legislation. considera- tion can be given to the subject in way not possible in the state hood bill"
 During discussion of the amend ment eliminating recognition of tri- bal rights, Bartlett told the com- mittee he would rather see them remain in the bill but would not object to the elimination.
 The approved measure would in- crease land the Territory will re- ceive by a million acres and turn over to the new state control of it's fisheries, fur and game.

CARPENTERS ARE WAITING RESULT
 OF FRIDAY MEET

Negotiations between Juneau AF'L Carpenters and the nine members of the Juneau Contractors and En- ployers Association have apparently reached a standstill pending the outcome Of an employers meeting tomorrow night. The meeting call ed by the Association will be of a private nature between the Associa- ton members and all other inter ested Juneau emL-oyeIs or organ ized labor. It will be held at the Elks Club.
 In the meantime, Earl Estepp, President of the local carpenters union. answered charges by the contractors that living costs would continue to .-Se w..a wage in- creases
 Said Estepp: Statistics available from U. s. Government sources do not show living costs and wages paid the average worker moving in unison during the eleven year per- iod from 1887 to 1947."
 "A New York building contrac- tor he continued, compared pri- ces of houses and workers incomes from 1889 to 1947. Tn 1889, 1t took the average carpenter SIT days to make enough money to purchase $l0,000 home. In 1947 it took the same carpenter S89 days to make enough money to purchase the same home at l947 increased cost prices"
 The Union president also pointed out, carpenters work and are paid only when work Is available and when climatic conditions are such that the work can be done. Still, they must continue consuming food and clothing every day of the year.
 He also argued that the proposed escalator clause, which the con- tractors have refused to discuss, would provide for a downward wage adjustment as well as wage increases every six months pro- viding the cost-of Living changes in the same direction.
