EVER TRY TO CATCH A CREASED PIG?

Catching the greased pig is pro- missed as one of the contests for the Fourth of July celebration. It is not definite yet whether this lively and funny performance will be held in town on the Fourth or at the picnic which is proposed for the Sunday entertainment.
 Did you ever see man try to catch a greased pig or did you ever try to catch young pig minus the grease coating? If you have, then you know something of the fun in store for the crowd on the Fourth.
 Where the pig is to come from is question which may bother the committee some, but Pat Be- gan has promised to furnish a pig and probably see that it is well greased if some one will volunteer to catch it. There is one thing sure, no one will be able to train for the event as there doesn't seem to be single pig residing in the environs of Seward this spring.

Fish Company Doubles Cold Storage Unit

Tom Reilly, business manager of the Seward Fish and Cold Storage Company announced today that with the installation of the new sharp freeze and glazing units this week the capacity of the plant will be doubled.
 The plant has handled l6O,00O pounds of halibut during the past ten days, and with doubled capa- city this would mean the ability to handle nearly million pounds a month, which would put the port of Seward back in the busi- ness as a fishing terminal.
 If soundings prove the anchor age to be as deep as in the past years, it is expected that the Alaska Steamship Company ships will dock there as in years past. Packaged and boxed fish can be loaded direct from the holding rooms.
 Gear and supplies, ice and bait are being supplied to the halibut CTS by the company now and it is expected that the fleet may re- turn to Seward.
 The Army barge BG-1l71, on the marine ways for overhaul and repairs, has been inspected and approved by the army inspector and will be launched early next week.

Work On Small
 Boat harbor is Delayed Again

Although the contract for the construction of mooring float for the Seward Small Boat Harbor was let by the city, the Territorial engineer has refused to approve it, since the figure submitted by the only bidder was 1000 above the allotted amount.
 The Territorial engineer will call for bids in an attempt to find a contractor who can submit a bid to build the float for a sum within the amount of money authorized.
 Meanwhile, many fishing boats are attempting to operate out of Seward and there has been some dissatisfaction with the local facil- tiles. At present the boats are making use of a barge in the Small Boat Harbor for a rlooring float.
 Fishermen of the halibut fleet have expressed surprise at the fact that Seward has done so little to attract the S28,000,00O fishing industry located almost within sight of the city. With proper facilities at Seward for taking care of the catch and Servicing the fishing boats, fishermen believe that it would be greatly to their advantage to make use of the Port of Seward.

Rehabilitation
 Program Given Army Support

Tentative plans for the rehabili tation of the southern section of the Alaska Railroad call for re- ducing curvature, installing heavier rail, strengthening trestles, and use of heavy mountain-type loco- motives.
 Ross Mann, who returned Wednesday from Washington, brought the news that the Army Department has submitted a for mai recommendation for the com plete rehabilitation of the Seward end of the line. The Navy, he said recognizes Resurrection Bay as one of the fine all-year ports of the world
 While it did not itself carry suf- ficient weight to turn the balance in favor of rehabilitating the rail road here, the memorial did serve to indicate the solidarity of the Territory iii regard to the railroad. It will be remembered that the memorial was passed early this spring by the Juneau legislature urging Congress to authorize this work.
 Mann said he believes that Dele gate E. l.. Bartlett is doing every thing he possibly can on this par ticular subject. He introduced Mann to many people who could be of assistance to Seward, and he wrote a number of official letters to argue in favor of the proposed program. Mann said he has never seen a harder working man than Bartlett.

ARR Rejects Bids On Longshore Work

The government owned and op- erated Alaska Railroad has rejected as too high all offers from private firms in response to the railroad s invitation to bid on longshoring operations at the Port of Seward Alaska, where the railroad handles freight destined to the interior.
 The railroad has declined pro- posals of negotiated contracts with private cargo-moving firms and will resubmit specifications and invitations to bid on the basis of straight rates per ton for ordinary cargo with exceptions for certain types of commodities. Revised bid invitations will be issued June 4 with opening on July l and awards made effective August l through railroad headquarters at Anchorage.
 Unless new specifications pro- duce bids from private operators at lower rates than offered to date the railroad will perform the cargo handling as means of reducing overall shipping costs to the ter ritory.
 The Northern Stevedoring and Handling Company holds the con- tract at the present time, but no local officials of the company could be located to elaborate on the news. However, it is believed that the company will continue to handle the local stevedoreing until the new contract is awarded in August.

Seward Meridian To Be Listed in Tide Book

Commander John Bowie of the Coast and Giadetic Survey team in Seward last week stated that in the near future there will be a page in the Tide Book for the Seward meridian.
 At present it is necessary to cal- culate the tide in Resurrection Bay and Seward vicinity by the subtraction of two hours of time from the Cordova listing. A detailed day by day record is being kept. Reported from the automatic tide reporter on the Seward dock by Gene P. Kirk patrick, this record will be the basis of calculation for the Seward page in the next tide book.
 Such a record is invaluable to fishermen and small craft using these waters.

Mining Claim Holders Must File Notice

Although holders of m in in 2 claims have until July, 1850 to com plete the annual labor required for assessment year commencing July l, 1949, notice must be filed if they desire to hold the claims.
 In order to take advantage of the exemption from assessment work this notice must be filed before July l, l949, in the office of the U. s. Commissioner in the recording district in which the claim is located.
 Required in States
 In contrast to the favored posi- tion of residents of Alaska in this respect, mining claim owners in the States will be required to complete before July 1. 1949, $100 worth of work on each claim.
 This is because Congress, at it's last session, granted only in Alaska suspension of the assessment work requirement. during the year end ing on that date.
 Possible Extension
 It has been pointed out that there is a possibility there may be new legislation introduced in Congress during the coming year to extend the exemption of assess ment work should conditions in Alaska justify the extension.
 A report from the Commissioner of Mines shows little activity in the Seward precinct during the past two years. Two hydraulic companies operated in l947, but only one in 1948.

BY the Assoeiotsd Press

John L. Lewis United Mine
Workers have run afoul of the
Taft-Hartley law again, this time
for allegedly being too rough In
a union organizing drive.
: An examiner for the National
Labor Relations Board yesterday
found the UNIV and one of its
locals in Harlan County, KY,

Lynch, KY, connected with the
United States Steel Corn. The
examiner. Thomas s. Wilsoii I'D
the workers were forcibly. hid
last February S in an e0prt to
compel them to sign cards for
union membership. He mentioned
the use of physical force and vio-
lence and the display Of deadly
weapons.
Mr.. Wilson recommended that
the UNIV and it's Local No. 7425
be directed to cease such activ-
tiles and to post notices that they
VIII refrain from such in the fu-
ture. His finding has the force of
a board ruling unless CHALLENGED

To Pray for Palestine
by the Assoeiofsd Press

VATICAN CITY. Nov. 10.-Pope
Plus XII today exhorted Catholics
throughout the world to pray fo1
Palestine while its future order
is now being discussed in public
assembly"
The Pontif1's exhortation fol-
lowed a plea by the Catholic Ac-
ton organ, Quotidiano, that the
present United Nations General
Assembly find a solution for the
Holy Land that will respect, in
addition to the rights of Arabs
and Jews, the indisputable rights
Of Christianity"
The Pope, who has included So
luton Of the Palestine problem as
one OF the special aims OF the
1850 Holy Year. asked today for q
new crusade of prayer so that
Jerusalem and all Palestine may
finally be given an order accord
ing to the norms of true justice
= that would conserve their
sacred character"
The Pope's appeal was printed
in the. Vatican newspaper Osser-
vatore Romano.
The Vatican radio. quoting
Quotidiano. said there appeared
to be no foundation to reports
that the Vatican and King Alb
dullah of Hashemite Jordan had
reached an accord for free access
Of pilgrims to the holy places con-
trolled by the Arabs.
Both Israel and Jordan oppose
plans to place Jerusalem under
international control. Israel holds

Washington area. but without Sc
rious results, the Health Depart
ment reported today.
District Health Officer Daniel l.
Seckinger said he thought the
changeable weather was largely
responsible for the outbreak Of
colds.
Although colds are becoming
more prevalent. the number OF
pneumonia and influenza cases,
which sometimes follow the COM
mon cold, is below normal for
Washington. Health Department
statistics showed.
For the week ending November
5 only 8 cases Of pneumonia were
reported: for the week ended Oc-
tober 20 there were IL. and for
the week ended October %, there
were 8. This compares with the
five-year average Of Is cases re-
ported per week, at this time of
The year.
Only three cases Of real in
fluenza have been reported during
this whole year. Health Depart
ment officials explained, despite
the fact that an illness sometimes
called the "fiu" has been COM
planned of by many persons here.
Most Of these painful sicknesses
accompanied by fever, are prob
ably due to what Is being called
now a virus Infection" a depart
