 Both Serge and Hozumi were hanged.

 This lease study in internation- al espionage in the Far East" reads like an Oriental serial from Hollywood. It even has the crime doesn't pay ending with a novel twist:
 The man who unknoWingly be- trayed the spy chain now is one of Japan's top communists.
 The report says that:
 The Japanese smashed the ring almost by accident, just before Pearl Harbor in 1941.
 By then it had picked off the secret it wanted most-assuranCe that Japan would not jump Rus Sla. That let the Reds rush troops across Siberia to halt the German drive on Moscow.
 Information from the ring was of "incalculable" value and cost almost nothing.
 Three Japanese who used to live in America were in the ring one at the top level.
 The ring knew the trend of Ja- panese-American negotiations in the critical summer and fall of 1941 It had an lin" with Japan csc Premier Konoe.
 But there is no hint it got tip on the Pearl Harbor raid.

LIFTING THE LID AT JUNEAU

Continued from Page One) for pulp mills and others, but some specific language considered objectionable by some Senators, and an industrial incentive clause, are due for reconsideration today.
 The House passed unanimously Sen. Frank Barr's bill authorizing Alaska municipalities to accept Sl0,O0O,0O0 available in federal funds for airport construction,
 Walter Plett, civil aeronautics executive from Anchorage, said after the House action, however, that the bill is ineffective uAil additional legislation is adOpled," because it doesn't provide for the Territory to participate Tn build ing fields where outlying com munities are unable to do so.
 Tn debate on the Wage-hour bill, attempts failed to get exemptions from the 40-hour week for the fishing industry, and to amend t by raising the minimum to Sill.
 Some critics of the bill argued that all able-bodies workers al ready received more than Sl m hour, and Pete Gilmore, repreSe1- tative of the Canned Salmon In dustry, said the 40-hour week would just about ruin the sal mon industry" because of the un- certainties over weather and fish runs.
 He said even women in cannery work get far over $1 an hour, with time and a half for work after midnight and 40 cents hourly more for evenings.
 The Senate will proceed today on a 10-mill property tax mea sure while the House will cortiH- ue consideration of the Wagehour measure. The "hot potato" liquor control bill will come to the floor in regular order possibly later this week.
 The reduced personal property exemptions were introduced yes terday by Sens. John C.. Butro- vich, Jr., and William Munz, Re- publicans, and carried, 12-4. The increased mining claim valuation

PARENTS WARNED ON DRIVING PRACTICE

CHICAGO, P)-Troffic experts are stressing psychology in an eff fort to save some of the estimated 4,000 lives lost annually in this country through automobile acci- dents involving teen-age drivers Ideas of speed and safety, they hold, are developed before young sters actually begin to drive.
 You may teach teen-age boys and girls the mechanics of operat- ing an automobile" declares H. C.. Kemper, president of Lumber mems Mutual Casualty Co.,, "but their ideas of driving responsibil- ity are fomred long before then" Kemper cautions parents to be es- pecially careful when driving with children in their cars.
 Much of the blame for our high accident rate, he believes, rests on the shoulders of parents who set bad examples for their children.

was proposed by Mmz and car ried, 9-7.
 The airport construction bill previously passed the Senate, but must return theer because of a minor House amendment.
 Barr, veteran Alaska airman, said federal funds were available for five years more on the basis of three federal dollars for one locally. He said such aid would have been valuable to Fairbanks few years ago.
 ''lt'S too late to help Fairbanks, but others can still use the help"
 Barr's amendment to exempt homesteads until a year after fi- nal title is issued also won Sena e approval, l2-4, after the veteran Fairbanks bush pilot argued it would encourage settlement.
 Sen. Charles Jones, Nome Re publican, tried to get an exemp- ton for mining properties until the gold price is raised, a bonus paid for il, or miners are allowed to sell on higher world market The proposal lost l2-4.
 In the House the furry over the liquor bill came after the lengthy measure reached the floor by sur prise, with one committee mem Der, Rep. C. A. Pollard, Democrat, recommending passage, and seven others withholding recommenda- ton.
 By various parliamentary man. euvers, Reps. Frank Angerman and Glen Franklin, both Fair banks Democrats, tried to side track it indefinitely.
 Rep. Warren A. Taylor, Fair banks Democrat, said the bill or iginally had been drawn by the at torney general after conferences among department heads and the Governor. He challenged the House:
 "Why not face the issue. We need adquate liquor control, which we don't have now"
 Angerman"l labeled it "a bad bill on which amending would run on and on."
 An attempt to route it to the ways and means committee also failed, and the House finally fol- lowed the appeal of Rep. Clarence Heating, Anchorage:

but Rep. Marcus Jensen, who voted for it, moved for reconsider ation today.
 The Senate sidetracked the pro- posed general property tax mea- sure until Monday in order to hold further hearings.
 In other action, the House pass ed a strongly worded memorial against sales in military commits saries to any but military person. nel and limited number of evil ians attached to military posst.
 It was addressed to Congress anl military department heads.
 Speakers declared the competi- ton was unfair to tax-paying bus mess since the military is not sub- ject to freight and sales costs or taxes.
 The charge was made that at Fairbanks the general public can freely buy military supplies, and Mrs. Essie Dale, Fairbanks Demo- crat said:
 "I didn't believe commissary sales were available to outsiders, but I've got three cuts of meat in my locker now for evidence"
 The present military sales prac- tices also brought blasts from Reps. Jack Conright of Anchorage and Warren Taylor and Glen Franklin of Fairbanks, all Demo- cratS.
 Taylor said he had studied the situation extensively and 'I thought the Kodiak situation, which led to sending the mayor to Washington in protest, was bad, until I found out what's happen ing at Fairbanks"
 The vote on the memorial was 22-1.
 Both Houses also passed several minor measures, the Senate ap- proving five unanimously
 They were topped by Rep Dale's bill opening housing projects to residents in general The wartime act provided for defense workers only.
 A memorial to Congress asking an Alaska hospital for the insane also was approved.
 Abill for a Pioneer Women's Home at Sitka came up again but was postponed to the 36th day of the session after the Senate adopt ed, 9-7, an amendment trebling the proposed appropriation to $3OO,OOO.
 Amendment supporters said d S100,000 was insufficient if the home really was needed
 Sen. Anita Garnick, Republican, co-author of the bill, charged on the floor an attempt is being made to kill this bill" Later she told a reporter some Senators were trying to use the bill as a club to gain support for the prop erty tax bill"
 Bills passed by the House in cluded:
 A resolution appropri n g S111,000 for regular legislative session expenses, including salar- ies and per diem; bill to legalize officials travel outside Alaska at Territorial expense when approv- ed by department heads as essen- tial; measure. allowing licensing of, coin amusement devices for

sy in Tokyo.
 An American diplomat at Har-. bin, Manchuria, vice-consul Ty- chO L. Lilliestrom, let two Soviet agents stay at his home and set up an illegal radio station, the re- port says. That was in 1929.
 At that time, an earlier and probably bigger ring was at work in China. But it was far less spec tacular.
 There is nothing in the report about any tie-in with Soviet es- pionage in this country. But one name in the report appears rather obscurely in still-secret testimony taken last year at the spy hearings of the House un-American activi-n ties committee.
