You probably wondered
where all that dough went
which about 100000 guys
paid every month TO insure
themselves against stray
piece OF lead. Well. its still
around-about $4,000, 600. 000--
S2,600.000.000 10 be exact
and the government is about
ready TO divvy 1t up among
the boys.
According to the Veterans
Administration. just about
every guy who ever had a
CT policy and who kept IL In
force for more than three
months is eligible 10 share in
the cut Of the melon.
How much YOU gonna get?
That's the S64 question. Well.
the answer depends on how
long you kept your policy
gong and how much premium
you paid each month.
A guy who has kept his
policy going since 1912 will
get more than guy who
dropped his in l945. A guy
who paid premiums OF $500
month on a $4,000 policy
for five years will get more
than a guy who paid premi-
ums Of SO month on a
$4,000 policy for the same
number of wears.
II you know your insurance
You can see then that the
older BOYS will pull down
little more dough than the
younger guys because if YOU
recall II cost a 35 year old
CT more dough each month
for his $4,000 policy than il
did a guy Is years old.
All in all. the VA experts
figure that the average CT
Will pull down about $40
from his insurance policy
whether he has let il lapse
or not.

get the dough? II won't be q

get theirs until late in 1850.
out you have il coming and
you are going to get II.
Now don't get the wrong

 Let it be noted, as the inquiries develop that neither case involved scheduled American airline flight Some hazards will always be involved in air transportand in every other form of human endeavor The common hazards to be foreseen, and usually are, in planned undertakings. This is in marked con- tract with the accident experience of individuals, n operation of motor vehicles among other things Most automobile accidents still be classified under few familiar headings.
 The responsibility of those who operate passenger services for profit always be to enlarge the field of foresight to guard against the unusual accident Perhaps these latest disasters will to this extent help to make the air safer.

the Housing Expediter in Washing ton in October, 1947.
 With him came the fabulous Greek friend of General Waugh ans, John Maragon, who had &C., companied President Truman to Potsdam. caused the demotion ot an Air Force General, once held White House pass and special White House parking reservation. This is the same Maragon who has demanded that this columnlst be called before a Senate investigating committee. Needless to say should be happy to appear.
 Mori and Maragon informed the Housing Expediters Office that the Tanforan track was now under new ownership, though how they offer ed any proof remains a mystery, since the wartime owner, Joe Rein field, never was known to the pub lie. Reinfeld, one of the biggest rum runners of prohibition days, was the chief secret owner, and his name only leaked out on Jan uary Is, 1949, when he was sued in Federal court.
 Fifteen months earlier, however in October, l947-Eugene Mori had told government officials he was Tanforans new owner.

5IN(I( ON TO COMET IN EFFORT TO FINISH
 HIS TREK 10 INFERIOR

Leaving this morning aboard the mail boat, Treva C., Paul Sincic is returning to Comet to finish his series of pictures in the area of the old mining camp.
 After finishing photographing the mines in the area, Sincic will catch fishing boat for Skagway and photograph about 10 miles hack toward Comet. A week or 10 days will be spent around Comet and at least month in Skagway While in Skagway, Sincic will pro- cess his colored film exposures.
 From Skagway, he will proceed to Haines by boat. From there he will trek north to Klukwan, Rainy Hollow and on to the Westward skirting the Seward and Malaspina Glaciers eventually reaching Val deg. He plans to then go to An chorage and north to the interior

equal to the job. So he telephoned Housing Expediter Tighe Woods himself and asked for an appoint ment. Later that afternoon Vaugh- an appeared in Woods office, eX- plained that he was personally interested in Tanforan, argued that the tracks ownership had changed, and that the governments policy was to grant building permits to clean up fire hazards.
 Tighe Woods had then been in office only six days, and the in- fluence of the White House was potent.
 He sent a memo to the Justice Department stating that the in- junction against Tanforan could be lifted Simultaneously Tanforan submitted notices from the oblig- ing city of San Bruno claiming that the race track was a fire and health hazard unless cleaned up.
 So, at long last, the ban on Tanforan was lifted, chiefly on General Vaughans plea that Its ownership had changed.
 As of this week, however, Justice Department officials, when queried, said they had no evidence that the ownership of the race track had really changed.
 Therefore, it may still be that Joe Reinfeld, who once ran the biggest fleet of rum boats off the Jersey coast and who was once in- dicted for the murder of a prohibit ton agent, is still the real owner of Tanforan and the man who really profited from General vaughan's lobbying against the veterans.
 It is true that track president Guy Standifer was out, having gone to jail; and that Eugene Mori was the new president. But according to Federal court deposition pub lished by the Newark Ledger on January IS, 1949, Reinfeld was the chief owner of the track.

 That is right agreed Maragon.
 T have your l948 return of which you have supplied a copy,' Rogers continued. Tt shows S1,400 from J. Buncher' Company and Sl,250 from Albert Verley."
 In other words, the close friend of the White House failed to tell the income tax collector or the Senate about the $40,000 on deposit in San Antonio.

SALMON STORY

Territorial SportsmenS. Inc. announced this week a net profit of s25O0 resulting from the 1949 Golden North Salmon Derby. Sportsmen plan to divide the gratifying profits between promotional expenses for next years Salmon Derby and restocking lakes and streams for the benefit of the sportsmen who made this success possible.
 Commendabe, are the efforts and the results Of Juneau amateur sportsmen who serving as officials and committeeman, made workable and practicable plans and stuck to the job until the final fsh was weighed by judges at the closing hours.
 A fine sporting spirit pervaded the three days of fishing Seasoned and novice fishermen, alike LOOK to the open for to three days of fresh ar fishing. The event attracted number of outsloe enthusiasts and proved to be a business stimulant.
 May we look forward to future Salmon Deroys under the direction of men having equal ability ana initiative.

HUNT AND MARAGON WERE RIVALS

The lobbying talks dragged on. Hunt and Maragon vied with each other to see who could do the most for Tanforan. At one point, lobby ist Hunt complained to housing officials that he was being pester- ed by Maragon, that Maragon tele- phoned at all hours of the day and night, even insulted Mrs. Hunt.
 At another time Maragon phon- ed Jack O'Brien of the Housing Expediter's office, said he was Drew Pearson" and demanded to know what was going on around there" The call insinuated skull duggery and was aimed to upset Hunts lobbying efforts.
 After more than month Of this,' General Vaughan apparently con- cluded that his boy friends weren't

MARAGON's INCOME TAX

It now looks as if John Maragon was in serious trouble, over both his income tax and perjury. Sen- ate investigators have now estab- lished the fact that the lobbyist who long had the inside run of the White House maintained a secret bank account in the National Bank of Commerce in San Antonio in 1945 and 1946. Approximately S40,- GOO was deposited there.
 Despite this, Maragon informed the Senate Investigating committee that he had only a small income in 1945, '46 and Al and he failed to reveal his San Antonio bank &C., count. All this was sworn to un- der oath.
 Astute William Rogers, counsel of the committee, produced a copy of Maragon's 1945 income tax and asked whether it was a correct copy.
 That is right" nodded Maragon.
 And that shows pointed out Rogers, that your total income for the year was s7,74O Is that right?"
 That is right" agreed Maragon.
 Tt shows continued Rogers, ."Sl,740 from the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and $6,0o0 from the Albert Verley Company, Chicago,
 Now l show you your income tax return-a copy of it-for 1946. It shows $6.000 from the Albert verley Company and Sl,889 from the U. s.

GEN. VAUGHAN INTERVIEWS

It was at about this point that General Vaughan first intervened. Apparently he didn't like the way the Housing Expediter treated his bosom pal, Maragon, for he com plained about it to his other pal, lobbyist James Hunt, and few days later Hunt showed up at the Housing Expediter's office alone.
 Hunt told housing officials that his friends from the Tanforan track hadn't been treated eourteously. He also warned that Housing Chief Frank Creedon could not afford to get in wrong with his friends" ," though he did not identify who those friends were.
 Housing officials blew up, said there had been no Jack of court esy and did not change the in- junction which banned the use of building materials by Tanforan.

Biologist Searches For Rare Rodent on Boring Sea (oasts

The search of rare cold country rodent, known as the lem ming, will bring Miss Sally Car righar, Guggenheim fellowship bio logist back to the coasts of the Boring Sea next March.
 Now on her return to her home in San Francisco after spending year in geological study at Una lakleet, the stopped over in Juneau for two days, leaving aboard the plane for the south today.
 The biologist, who has two books to her credit, is gathering mater ial for a third to be named, Where Storms Begin"
 Her slight stature apparently be- lies her rugged enthusiasm. She lived and hunted with the Eskimos of the village all through the past winter, one of the most severe in many decades.
 Her search for the small rodent the lemming, is only a part of her years work which included study of animals in relationship to their far northern environment.
 Tt has been a most rewarding year." the biologist said T found the Eskimos so perceptive and un- derstanding. I was studying ani- mals and they have great love for the animals, so we got along famously. I sat in their house and talked about the animals as they tanned the skins"
 They have an amazing know ledge of animal life, much more so than in any of the other wilder ness countries where I have travel en and studied" she added.

A. A. U. P. Speaks Frankly
(St. Louis Star-Timesl

(St. Louis Star-Times)
 The National Education Association recently recommended that Communists be barred from the teaching profession It agreed in effect with earlier statement by 20 distinguished educators who had been commissioned to study the problem But the American Association of University, Professors refuses to along. Its committee academic freedom has issued the following statement: Ia4
 So long the Communist party is a legal
 political party, affiliation with it should not be
 regarded justifiable reason for exclusion
 from the academic profession
 Speaking for the rank and file of college and uni versity faculties the AA.UP does not bother itself with the professional qualifications of card-carrying Communists It doesn't attempt to say whether Communist in the classroom is a bad influence on young minds. It simply says that the teaching pro- fesson should not be circumscribed by rules that not equally applicable to other segments of society
 While the A. A, U. P. may seem to be putting its head into stone wall of public opinion it's statement calls for sober reflection It has challenged the nation to lay off the teaching profession until it has met the Communist problem at other levels.
 Though they used different language, the N E. A. and the A. A. U P end up near the same place. The former while saying flatly that Communists should not be allowed teach, firm in it's opposition to loyalty oaths and other discriminatory regulations
