New Edgetumbe Units Calls for Revamp in
 Alaska Native Plans

able upon completion of hospita projects, with POO in the new unit l50 at Ellis and 65 in the Ortho- pedic.
 An increase in beds for the Or thcpedic hospital is also in the planning stage, according to Sup erintendent Foster. A proposal tt add 6l-bed wing to the present building is included in the 1g5. budget, he said.
 According to Dr. Phillip Moore surgeon at the Orthopedic hospital there are now at least 1000 or. thopedic cases which could b' brought in for medical care in tht Territory. Right now, he said there are 400 known cases awaiting care.
 While educational and medica divisions are separate units at M, Edgecumbe, efforts are now to bt made to provide more educationa facilities for hospitalized young. sters and for other patients, ac. cording to Dr. George Dale, ANS educational director.
 Patients need occupational ther- apy and hospitalized children need education, according to Dr. Dale Plans are under way to make this possible.
 For ambulatory orthopedic cases and for arrested tuberculosis cases Elans are to provide special dormi- tories and special classrooms oper- ated under medical supervision to enable convalescing youngsters to continue their education,
 Hospital cases will be separated from regular class rooms, with special rooms and dormitories fol both types of convalescents, accord ing to Dr. Dale. All funds fol schooling will come from the hos pital but educational supervising will be administered by the exist ing school supervisors, he said.
 In the Mt. Edgecumbe school, new emphasis on vocational training tc prepare youths for work particu- larily suited for Alaska, is on the docket, Dr. Dale said. He added that plans are to separte vocation al and college preparatory educa- tional courses in such a way that students after four years will emerge specially trained in either field, with specific assistance fol advanced schooling made available for the college prep trained stu dents.

DRAG BOATS
 AT ASTORIA
 TO TIE UP
Fishermen Decide 10 Stay in Port UnfiI Packers
 Boost Prices

ASTORIA, April 19.-tR- Some 40 drag boats will stay tied up here until packers boost prices for bottom fish, fishermen decided last night.
 Leading packers cut prices up to 50 per cent recently-and some re- fuse to buy at any price-blaming foreign imports for collapse of the market.
 Ben Ferguson, Secretary for the Otter Trawlers Union, said fish ermen agree the market is depress- ed and believe tariff protection is needed. However, he said, the men won't fish for less than last years prices.
 Joining in the tie-up decision last night were the union and the Off shore Fishing Vessel Association.
 Offshore boat owners, many of whom are members of the union said the price. offers made here are the same as those made in Canada.
 The boat owners predicted that the war-born bottom fish industry would be wiped out if foreign imports continued at below U. S. prices.

Big plans are underway for the expansion and reorganization of the educational and medical services oi the Alaska Native Service in- stallations at Mt. Edgecumbe.
 The entire program got a shot m the arm last week when division heads from the ANS Territorial office travelled to Mt. Edgecumbe to meet department heads on the scene.
 Object of the joint meeting, ac- cording to Don Foster, ANS gen. eral superintendent, was to work cut an overall 10-year coordinated program which will make the most use of available and planned fac- ilities.
 In the medical department of Mt Edgeeumbe, construction of the new 200-bed hospital is the biggest pro- ject underway.
 The five-story structure to be built at the cost of s1,850,547, is approximately 40 per cent complete to date, according to Ralph Mize head of the ANS construction di- vision. Work was begun on the building last May IS, and is con- tracted for completion January 18 1850. Construction men are pour ming the next to the top slab at present, Mize said.
 Along with the hospital construc- tion, other allied building work is necessary, including the remodel ing of approximately 30 army buildings for personnel quarters. Funds for quarters appropriated to- taled $115,OO0, according to Mize. Rehabilitation and reconversion of other supplementary buildings is now underway.
 Following completion of the new hospital, work ..on the two exist ing hospitals will be started, Mize said
 Patients will be moved from the Ellis Island hospital and the Or thopedic hospital into the new unit, while workmen go in to make ma jor repairs and to renovate the old CT buildings.
 An out-patient clinic for all per- scnnel on Japonski Island is to he provided on the ground floor of the Orthopedic hospital, according to Mize.
 A total of 415 beds will be avail

HIRING HALL AGAIN ISSUE
 FOR TROUBLE
Settlement Depends Tait- Harley Law RuIing-No
 WaIkouf on Coast

WASHINGTON, April 19.--tR-- A CIO official said today there will be a general shipping strike on both coasts June IS unless prefer sntial hiring in the maritime in- dustry is legalized beyond any ques- ion by that time
 Hoyt Haddock. legislative repre- sentative of the CIO Marine com mittee, made the statement to
 eporters after telling a Senate Labor subcommittee that a strike is probable.
 When newsmen asked just what he meant by probable" Haddock replied:
 There definitely will be strike if the hiring hall is ruled illegal and there is no new agreement when our contracts run out June l5."
 In San Francisco, Pacific Amer lean Shipowners' Association said 1t has two-year no-strike, no lockout agreement with 76 per cent of all maritime employees. A spokesman for PASA. which rep tesents virtually all West Coast American shipping. said this agree ment runs to June IS, 1851 Ea said only one contract in West Coast shipping is re-opening June 45. This is with the CIo Marine Engineers Beneficial Association. One negotiating meeting was held yesterday PAsA said 1t was satis- factory. Another will be hold this week.) VIA :. ssssp sSsssss Preferential hiring" means that employers must hire union men If they are available. In the mari- lime industry, this has been done through the so-called hiring hall"
 Haddock said the CIO expects
 preferential hiring" to be ruled Illegal under the Taft Hartley Law m court test scheduled for early .n June. He predicted such rul- 4ng would kill any chance for a Jew contract in the shipping in- tustry.
 The Taft Hartley Law bans the closed shop, under which employ CTS can hire only union members. A point of dispute is whether the oan also applies to preferential hiring"

THOUSANDS WRITE
 TO ALASKA BUREAU FOR EMPLOYMENT

More than 4,000 letters from per- sons looking for jobs in Alaska have been received by the Alaska Territorial Employment Service since January l, Director A. A. Hedges said today.
 Job-seekers have written from every state in the union, as well as from Canada, Mexico and sev- eral of the European countries.
 Employment Service offices over the Territory have also been flood ed with inquiries on Alaskan job possibilities, Hedges said.
 But for nearly 100 per cent of the ob-seekers, the answer is the same, according to Hedges, who said that his office, was able to encourage only very small number of the workers to come to the Territory because at this time applicants al- ready in the Territory far outnum- Der available job openings.
 The huge influx of job-seekers who have come to Alaska this spring without bothering to inquire about employment opportunities be- forehand have crowded the labor market, particularly in the Anchor age and Fairbanks areas. Even highly skilled workers are forced to draw their unemployment com pensation, Hedges said.
 At present, he estimated, it ap- pears there will be no need fo1 additional workers in Alaska prior to June IS, even if there is nc further immigration to the Terri tory before then.
 The fact that weather in An chorage and Fairbanks areas has not yet sufficiently moderated tc enable construction projects to gel under way has further aggravated the unemployment situation. If contractors had been able to commence operations at full speed he said, they would have been able to absorb a large percentage of newcomers.

BATTLE OF YANGTzEIS
 IN MAKING
Chinese Government Re-
 ieCts Communist Demands -Red Troops Ready, Shoot
(By The Associated Press)

An official source said tonight the Chinese government had decid- ed to reject the latest Communist demands an act which. is expected to touch off fthe battle of the Yangtze.
 The Communist radio warned that a veteran Red army of 400,- GOO men is ready to storm across the Yanetle in the Nanking area unless the government gives in
 North of the river, 100000 sea- soned Red troops were ready to start shooting. South of the river 5OO,OOO Nationalist troops crouched before the impending blow.
 Despair gripped Nanking. Gov ernment officials got ready to flee. They met, however, to prepare some sort of reply to the Reds, pinning faint hope on plea for more time.
 Exact nature of the Communist surrender demands remained secret, but Nationalists admitted that they call for outright equalization.
 The government of acting Presi- dent Ii Ttung-jen appeared ready to concede almost anything except that the Communist forces be per- mitted to establish bridgeheads south of the Yangtze.
 Economists in Shanghai saw peace as the only way to save Ma tionalist China from complete col lapse.
 Imitation is running wild. The governments gold yuan currency grows more worthless by the day Printing presses run round the clock but they still can't keep the coun- try in money.
