WASHINGTON = The Aviator industry isn't advertising it, but the United States is about to lose its superiority in the manufacture of commercial planes.
 For years, American built planes have been used by the French, the Dutch, and even the British. The familiar DC types Made in Amer ica" have been used by every com- mercial airline in the world. from Burma to Patagonia. But that day is about to pass.
 The British are now ahead of us in commercial airplane design, while the Swedes are about even and will surpass us soon.
 Alert Undersecretary of Com merce c. V. Whitney has been wis., iting England to investigate British commercial air superiority and is reporting that the British already have jet-propelled transport plane far ahead of anything even started in the U. s. A.
 Reason for the slump in com- mercial airplane design is that the Republican 80th Congress objected - -

 Financial reports, prepared by the water company, were presented to the council, which in turn hand ed them to c. J. Ehrendreich, Ger tified Public Accountant, for andy
 is
 Ehrendreich suggested that the incoming councilmen be given time to adjust to their new duties before being faced with such serious matter as the water rate question.
 H. L. Faulkner, speaking for the water company, said the company can't possibly make ends meet this year. He pointed out that the S2890 net return on the owners in vestment doesn't give him eight percent on the money he invested last year.
 No action was taken by ,he old council. However, when new coun- cilmen had been sworn in, a mo- ton was made to call special meeting as soon as Ehrendreich's analysis of the water company statement had been completed.
 Before adjourning, the old council decided to accept the paving con- tract as completed.
 The question of annexation to the City of Juneau of the Highlands also came before the old council. Because another petition would have to be signed by the people of the Highlands If changes in the boundaries of the proposed an- nexation were made to include the proposed boat harbor, the council decided to follow the description of boundaries set forth in the petition already signed.
 Mayor Waino Hendrickson thank ed the retiring councilmen for the work they had done.
 "You leave a fine record of achievement behind you," he said.
 Outgoing councilmen were w. Burr Johnson, J. A. Thibodeau and Edward Nielsen.
 New councilmen are B. F. Mc- Dowell, Alfred zenger, ST., and Ar thur H. Walther, who were sworn in by Howard Stabler, city attorney.
 New committees were formed. Fi- nance, Taxation, Appropriations and Elections Committee has for it's chairman zenger; members of the committee are McDowell and J. P. Christensen.
 Mcdowell is chairman of the Fire, Water, Health and Sanitation Committee. Members are Walther and George Jorgenson. Schools and Library Committee is headed by Christensen and includes Zenger and Mcdowell.
 Streets, Sewers and Lights Con- mittee chairman is James Larsen with Jorgenson and Zenger making up the committee. Police Commit tee is headed by Jorgenson with Larsen and Walther also on the committee.

 Chinese began fleeing from Can lon today as the front to the north showed signs of caving under the pressure of attacking Red armies.
 Diplomats in Canton said they expected to hear Monday that the Nationalist capital was being nov ed to Chungking. That was the wartime capital in Western China.
 Kukong, anchor city only l25 miles north of Canton. was yielded without a fight. Henkyang. the Ma tionalist base 265 miles to the north, appeared to have heen aban- doned.
 Press reports said Gen. Pal Shung -hsi, central front commando CT, had quit Hengyang and would set up headquarters at kweiiin, capital of his native Kwangsi Pro- vince.
 That was a hint he may leave Canton to it's fate. His 200.0O0- man army is the best left to the Nationalists on the Chinese main- land
 A we'll informed commonwealth diplomat in London said Britain will recognize the newly-established Chinese Con nunist regime in Peip- ing. India was expected to take a like step. Other commonwealth might follow suit. Trade with China is big factor.

MILLION WORKERS
 ARE IDLE
Nothing 10 Cheer About on Labor Front-PiCture
 Is Given Now
(By the Associated Press)


 There isn't much to cheer about on the nations labor front today.
 Here's quick rundown of major disputes which already have made idle more than a million workers.
 There was nothing to indicate an early settlement of the coun- try's major lator trouble-strikes by some 85O,OOO steel and coal workers.
 There were threats of a nation wide railroad strike and a walkout by some 10000 aluminium workers in eight states.
 The continuing strike by John L. Lewis 380,0o0 United Mine Workers-now three weeks old prompted Cyrus s. Ching, Federal Cancellation Director, to warn:
 Each day brings the nation closer to a crisis"
 Ching, who urged Lewis and mine operators to resume negotia- tions in an effort to end the strike, said This strike must be settled promptly"
 NO COAL SETTLEMENT
 Ching, after his all-day meeting in Washington with Lewis and the O bringing settlement any nearer. Both sides aired their differences at the meeting. The government did not issue an ultimatum that the miners must go back to work or that the negotiations should be resumed at specific date. At Ching's request, the operators asked Lewis to meet with them next Tues day or Wednesday. But the time or meeting place has not been set.
 NO MOVE, STEEL STRIKE
 The government has made no move in the week-old steel strike. The dispute over pensions and in- surance has made idle some 450,000 CIO United Steelworkers in basic steel plants and forced the layoff of thousands of other workers in steel-related industries.
 Ching said no immediate plans have been made to call the union and steel companies lack into gov- ernment sponsored negotiations.
 The CIO-USW served notice on the Aluminium Company of America that 10000 workers in eight states will strike Oct. IT unless a satis- factory contract is agreed upon. The union is demanding a wage boost and free pensions and insur- ance. Alcoa, which produces about half of the nations aluminium, said the unions contract demands are indefinite.
 Officials of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Bremen and Engine men met in Chicago to consider possible strike action. The general chairmen will decide whether to authorize a strike vote among the 10000 members.

Dorothy Dix Says-
Wife's Love Is Spur to Man

VIII you please tell me what
part a wife plays In her hus-
bands success?-A BRIDE
TO-BE.
Answer: That depends upon the
man. There are men who are
self-starters who will always get
there on their own power. A wife
can speed up such q man, but
she cannot stop him. There are
other men so weak and f1abby that
they will flop, no matter what
effort q wife makes to brace them
up. No wife can supply to them
the backbone and the energy they
lack. Then there are the great
mass of average husbands whose
success is about IS per cent WIFE,
made.
But I think that love is still the
great motive power that drives
men on. and as long as q man
really loves his wife he will
struggle to get the things he wants
to give her. It is only when he
has ceased to care for his wife
that he slacks down. So II wife
wants her husband to be a success
she must keep him feeling that
she is a queen that it Is privilege
to lay tributes at her feet.
For q man to be happily mar
ried and satisfied with his wife Is
not just a matter Of the heart. It
is a business affair as well, and q
potent factor in his success OF
failure, Run over the list of your

| acquaintances and recall how
many prosperous men you have
known who are now down-and-
cutters, who first began to skid
when they decided they were too
young for their middle-aged wives
and commenced having affairs
with young girls.
Then a mans success is greatly
affected by his wife's attitude to-
ward him. In a way every woman
sets the price tag on her husband
and the general public takes him
at her valuation. If she is always
singing his praises and telling how
wise and efficient and wonderful
he is, we unconsciously accept her
estimate of him and think he
must be fine fellow because his
wife says so. She ought to know.
She sees him at close range. But
if, on the other hand, wife is
continually belittling her husband
and telling his faults, we set him
down as no-account, lazy or
stupid, when perhaps he is none
of these things. Only his wife has
advertised him as such.
Women's traditional way Of
helping their husbands is by
pinching pennies. but they would
get better results If they made
happy and soothing homes for
their husbands, and kept them
jollied up and believing that they
can get the moon for the women
they love.
