 Being Installed At St. Ann's Hospital

Beds and equipment were being installed in St. Ann's hospital in Juneau for inauguration of the Alaska Health Departments pro- gram for diagnosis and treatment of children's chronic diseases, in- cluding rheumatic fever. The pro- gram is under the direction of pr. Virginia Cobb, pediatric consult ant for the department.
 Beds for seven are being install led and disqualification is to begin November 21 for patients in the program which Health Department authorities pointed out is on demonstration basis at it's incep- ton.
 The program offers observation, complete diagnosis and longtime care as a service to doctors of the Territory for their child patients who are suffering from chronic disease for which their parents could not otherwise afford the necessary lengthy treatment, it was explained.
 If diagnosis indicates that treat ment and long-term care will i'm prove the child's condition, the program provides that he may re- main hospitalized until benefited thereby.
 Initiation of the program at this time was made possible with the interested aid and cooperation of St. Ann's hospital, pr. Cobb said, and the arrival of trained person. nel to carry on the work.

Ching Burned Up; Lewis Fails To
 Attend Conference

WASHINGTON, (Ao) - John L. Lewis failed to show up yesterday for a coal peace conference called by the government. Instead, he sent a terse wire saying he would see the federal mediatorS on Mon day.
 It amounted to a sharp slap in the face to Cyrus Ching, federal mediation chief. It left him, too, pretty much in the position of the parson when the bride-to-be does not show up for the wedding.
 Ching was there, fuming. The soft coal operators were there, fuming. But no Lewis.
 In fact, it was something of a mystery where Lewis was. Aides of the bushy-browed union leader with the flair for the dramatic said they did not know.
 Ching was plainly burned up.
 First, he fired a telegram to United Mine Workers headquar- ters acking Lewis for "clarifica- tion." But he didn't even know whether Lewis would see it.
 Then Ching delivered a report to the White Houes that Lewis had coolly turned down bid to a peace conference.
 Ching called for his car and sped to the White House himself to make the report.
 While he was travelling there, President Truman was holding his regular Thursday news confer ence.
 The Lewis-Ching situation had not come to light and the ques- tions to MT. Truman did not deal with it.
 The President was asked what migh be the administrations next move in the coal situation.
 He wouldn't say about that.
 Nor would the President com ment on Lewis order of Wednes- day sending the coal miners back to work for three weeks.
 Instead of comment, the Pres ident said of Lewis:
 His picture is there on the front page of the Washington Post. Take a look at it.
 The Post picture was an [P) wirephoto of a glowering Lewis in

It took exactly half an hour before

she was not physically restrained

by reason OF requests, we pup

public opinion column of Mon

opinion of the Herald. 1t is re-

of the story.
At the trial justice court in
Christiansburg on Sept. 10Th, a
problem arose of great concern
to the farmers and land owners of
Montgomery County and through
out the state, namely the prob
lem Of illegal hunting and tres
passing.
The trial justice claimed that
if the defendant be charged with
hunting on posted land, hunting
on Sunday, out of season and
without a license, four distinct
and separate charges that h e
law provides that he can be con
victed of one charge only and that
such a conviction automatically
eliminates the three remaining
charges.
The writer is informed that
state law provides that hunter
must have the permission of the
land owner before he can legally
hunt on his land. Yet, in spite of
this provision, the trial justice
also claimed that the land owner
must state under oath that such
land is posted and enclosed. Such
statement was required of this
writer in this same court on the
above date.
In this connection it should be
noted that the game wardens
have a very difficult problem in
an attempt to enforce the law
even if they are given the best
cooperation on the part of the
trial justice court. The problem
is not otherwise with the land
owner. For at best both the game
warden and the land owners can
hope to catch only very few of
the illegal hunters because OF
the difficulties involved. 1t is al
most useless for the game warden
to attempt to catch an illegal
hunter in the woods for the hunt
er knows the land and the game
warden doesn't. Also, the hunter
is usually sitting and watching
and the warden is usually NOV
ing. The usual procedure for the
warden is to find the parked car

When the l. H. Huffs of Glade
Spring get laundering for strawber-
ries in January, they have 'em! It's
their walk-in freezer that makes it
possible. And far from costing a lot to
operate. it actually saves them money.
Mrs. Fluff and daughter Monnie
prepare and package all the fruits,
vegetables and meats that go into the
freezer. Most of them are grown on
the Huff farm
''It's much easier to prepare food
for freezing" says Mrs. Huff, ethan it
is to can the food by the cooking
method. And furthermore, the frozen
food is tastier, we think"
The Huff freezer is a two-room af-
fair. For lard, fresh vegetables and
for aging beef there's a 35-degree
section, 10 feet by 8 by 7. The zero
storage is feet by by 7. That's 896
cubic feet of cold storage, and here's
what Mr.. Fluff says about cost: "Over
an 18-month period, it averaged 385
kilowatt hours per month. 1t costs me
an average of $5.75 month to oper-
ate the freezer on my present electric
service rate"

lengthy questioning, he confessed
the crime. However, by the time
Of the trial, the girl withdrew her
accusation and the young man re-
pudiated his statement. Thus the
only evidence the district attorney
had left was the defendants origi-
nal confession. The court promptly
ordered the prisoner released. The
judge said that confession alone,
without any other evidence. is not
enough basis for conviction.

of the hunter, or hunters, and re
main with the car until the hun
ter or hunters come in, which
means likely day spent in an
effort to examine the credentials
of possibly only one man. The
great majority Of such hunters
are town and city people, for the
farmer and land owners have but
little time 10 hunt.
From this we can readily con-
clude that it is a very costly pro-
cedure for both the game warden
and the land owners to bring an
illegal hunter before the trial
Justice courE. There are no fig
ures available with which to esti
mate this cost, but so many must
be sought in order to catch one,
such cost is obviously great both
in terms of time and money as
well as the travel cost. Even after
the illegal hunter is caught h e
land owner must appear in court,
which means the major part of a
day lost and possibly fifty miles
Or more travel. Also, the game
warden must appear Therefore,
total cost of fifty to seventy
five dollars per illegal hunter
caught would appear a reason
able estimate. Yet in spite of this
picture the trial justice usually
contends that ten dollar fine is
sufficient, regardless of the num-
Der of charges made. In other
words, it costs, five or more
times as much much to prosecute
an illegal hunter as the latter's
fine will amount to.
Obviously, this picture suggests
little cooperation available to the
game wardens, the farmers and
land owners whose lands, gener-
ally speaking, have so long been
considered public domain. Also,
such is a far cry from the current
efforts to protect wild life, clubs
for which exist throughout the
state, involving school children
and other agencies.
The trial justice is a political
appointment. He is usually
town or city man, and, obvious
ly, his experiences and sympa-
thies are with such people, and
these people far too often appear
to be of the opinion that the far
mer's land is public domain. 1t
is further believed that in favor
ing this latter class (and the
great majority of hunters are in
this CLASSY as contraSted to the
farmer and land owner, the trial
justice is doing nothing other
than building and maintaining
his political fences. The farmer
and land owner, by virtue Of their
isolated activities, are but a small
factor in the political field, for
they usually visit the polls and
vote for the lesser of two, three
Or four evils.
