WEATHER DELAYS OFFICIAL OPENING OF COAST GUARD HQ

Bad flying weather today pre- vented the scheduled re-establish- ment of the l7th US. Coast Guard District Headquarters in Alaska.
 Capt. N. S. Haugen, Chief of Staff and Acting Commander of the re- activated l7th District, was to fly here to open officially the new headquarters at Juneau, but a heavy morning fog in Seattle in- terfered.
 Operation of District IT, which comprises Alaska, has keen func- tioning with Seattle headquarters since its recent reactivation. Rear Admiral R. T. McElligott, comman- der of the 18th District, has been Acting Commander of the l7th, which will be taken over by Rear Admiral Joseph Greenspun on his arrival probably in November. Ad- miral Greenspun has been Coast Guard Finance Officer in Washing ton, DC.
 As explained by Comdr. D. McG. Morrison, ranking officer here now, Captain Haugen has the com mand; wherever he goes. the com mand goes with him. Thus, as soon as he crosses the line be- tween 18th and l7th districts, this one automatically is officially estab- lished."
 The Coast Guard will occpy the second and third floors, as well as several first floor offices. of the new Community Building, the three story structure on Third Street built primarily to house the Dis- trict offices.
 The first detachment of officers and men, many with their families, arrived in Juneau August 30 on the Aleutian; another group landed here September ' on the Baranof, and the rest of the personnel assigned to the headquarters will sail from Seattle tomorrow on the Aleutian.

BOIL WATER

The Territorial Health Depart ment has requested that all users of the Douglas water supply boil their drinking water until further notice. The request was made be- cause of failure of the proper amount of chlorine being used, pos sibly due to the extreme downpour and resulting in several cases of stomach disentary. The City water chlorinator has been stepped up to twice the usual amount, according to city officials, and within a day or so should meet with the Health Department standards so that fur ther boiling will not be necessary.

ACTION ON CIVIL RIGHTS ALL OFF
(By Associated Press)

It doesn't look as though therell be any action on civil rights this year. Even supporters of President Truman's program are in favor of holding off action until next year a year of Congressional elections. The delay in civil rights seems to apply to the House as well as the Senate, which got off to a fili- buster at the start of the present session.

Orchestra
Makes Debut
By EIeno de Soyn

The newly-organized Depart
ment Of Agriculture Symphony
made It's debut in the Depart
ment's Thomas jefferson Audi
torium last night. 1t was an
auspicious beginning for q group
assembled only five months ago,
and speaks well Of its leader. Dr.
Frederick Fall. The discipline of
the orchestra was remarkable, as
was its pitch and elasticity of
tone.
Disbanded during the war. the
former Agriculture ensemble never
seemed as large as 1t is now. To
make room for violinists and for
the entire viola section. the stage
had to be enlarged by means of
tables. 1t looked q bit unsafe for
the players. Yet narrow quarters
did not affect the enthusiasm of
the 80 musicians who form the
group. Judging by the results.
the conductor was fortunate in
the type Of talent assembled. ad-
vaneed enough technically and
ready to do his bidding interpreta-
lively.
It is not what one plays but
how one plays that matters.
Most amateur groups make the
mistake Of reaching for COM
positions beyond them, and their
music sounds labored. What one
heard last night approached a
professional performance. The
Overture to Mozart's The Mar
riage Of Figaro" was crisp. accur-
ate in details and alive. Schubert's
Unfinished" symphony was strong
and full Of that intense drama
which should always form q part
Of it in performance but seldom
does even when played by profess

an open field for propagandists. u
Rear Admiral Charles A,
Pownall, who will be succeeded
September ! by the first civilian
governor Of Guam, also asserted
in q news conference statement:
Guam has suffered not only
from war but from misunder-
standing and undocumented dis
cussion.
Guam and its people deserve a
better lot than to become objects
lof a tug-of-war between adj
vocates of conflicting theories not
necessarily conceived with the
welfare of Guam as their primary
concern"
Guam had been an "open field
for propagandists." the admiral
said, because the administration q
time for transfer from Navy to
Interior Department rule had
been uncertain due to lack Of q
