NEW YORK, March 14-tR-Paul Robeson's scheduled appearance on Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt's tele- vision show has been called off.

 An NEG spokesman said yester- day "an influx" of telephone pro- tests followed the announcement, and that Elliott Roosevelt and Mar tin Jones, co-producers of the show, had decided to postpone the racial program indefinitely.

LONG ALASKA.
 NAMES HOLD. C. |. CHECKS.

WASHINGTON, March 14-Rt- The Veterans Administration said today the payment of the G.I. in- surance dividend to war veterans in Alaska and the Philippines is about to begin.
 The agency said it has been un- able to make such payments here tofore because the long addresses involved could not be handled by tabulating machines.
 The administration has sent more than 8,878,000 checks totaling S1 ,587 ,0OO, QUO as dividend payments on World War II life insurance policies.
 A spokesman for the agency said names or addresses containing more than IS letters are too long for the tabulating machines and must be prepared by hand.
 This has prevented the mailing of checks to the 5000 veterans in Alaska and the estimated 12,000 in the Philippines, he said.
 He added special group of work CTS is being set up to handle this job by hand and that the checks will start out 'soon."
 He said the same delays have ap- piled to US. veterans living in most foreign countries.

COURT OF HONOR FOR CUB SCOUTS
 AT ROTARY CLUB

Fifty members of the Juneau Rotary Club entertained 50 guests at the weekly luncheon meeting today in the Baranof Gold Room, and the honorees provided interest and entertainment of the first order.
 They were members of the six Cub Scout dens sponsored by the Rotary Club, with their Den moth CTS. Den by den, cub by cub, the boys explained requirements for first-year wolf badges, and for sue ceeding bear and lion awards.
 With the Rev. c. Hillerman pre- siding, Cubs were awarded honors representing individual achieve ments for the year.
 Neil Friedman, chairman of the Rotary Boy Scout committee, was introduced and lauded for the splendid accomplishments in this activity. Other committee members are Capt. Svend c. Hansen. Vern Metcalfe, Stan Grummett and J. B. Burford.
 With the comment that they do 99 percent of the work" the Rev. Hillerman introduced these Den mothers: Mesdames Roger Bailey, George Bryson. Henry Harmon, Cur tis Shattuck, Carl Rusher and Oscar Pearson of Dens through 6. respec- lively. Den 6 is at Thane, the only pack outside Juneau.
 Also introduced was Boy Scout Bill Baker, who is a sort of "liaison officer" between Cubs and Scouts.
 A special feature which delighted the young guests was the appear ance of a huge birthday cake in honor of March birthday Rotar- ians." Expertly cut by President Bob Akervick, the cake was divided among the visitors. Rotarians hav- ing birthdays this month are Vern Metcalfe. Carson Lawrence, George Sundborg and Ralph Mize.
 Guests were Curtis Shattuck, Carl Heinniller and Frank Crosby a newcomer from Seattle, who came to take position on the sales and finance staff of the Columbia Lum- Der Company.

FEDERAL AID, EDUCATION, |5 SHELvED NOW

WASHINGTON, March 14-tR- The House Labor Committee today shelved Federal aid to education but immediately turned to consid- eration of a school construction program. .......
 Committee members leaving a closed door session reported the committee voted 13 to 12 to reject the Senate-passed bill providing $300000,OO0 for school assistance to the states.
 The committee had been trying for nearly six weeks to crack the deadlock which had blocked House action on the measure.
 The big stumbling block to an agreement was dispute over whether church and private schools should share in the federal funds.
 Making its action even more con- elusive, the committee backed by a IA to 10 vote the refusal of Chairman Lesinski D-Mich to sidetrack school construction for other general aid measures.
 Lesinski, in effect, was ruling that the committee rejection of the Senate bill ended the aid wrangle for this session.

ApW PROGRAM GIVEN OUTLINE TO BPW BY
 JOHN D. ARTSINGER

Eighteen projects under the new Alaska Public Works program have already begun this season, John ID. Argetsinger, district engineer with the General Services Admin istration, told members and guests of the Business and Professional Women's club regular luncheon meeting yesterday where he was guest speaker.
 Schools were ready to take ad- vantage of the Community Facil- ities bill provisions for Alaska, he said, and of the IS projects, Il arc applications for school buildings, 5 for sanitation projects, one library and one storage and public building. Many other communities have in- dicated that they are desirous of taking advantage of the GSA pro- visions, the speaker said, but due
 to lack of organizations to date which are able to assume respon-
 sibility for the project, their pro- gress in making plans has been retarded.
 The Community Facilities Bill carries appropriations for $7O,OO0,o0O
 over a five year period for com
 munity projects in Alaska, from
 which up to 50 percent of the cost
 of a community development will
 be paid, the other 50 percent being
 guaranteed by the community or
 organization within the community MT Argetsinger urged commun- ities who wish to take advantage
 of opportunities for improvement projects under this act to also take full advantage of the consul tant services offered by members of the Alaska Department Of Health, the Education Department, architects and engineers. Certain
 specifications in planning must be
 met, he pointed out, and much time and effort can be saved by
 ascertaining these in advance from
 persons who are in position to have
 the information.
 Object of the community bill,
 he said, is set forth in the act as ito better living conditions in Alaska, increase residents, stimu-
 late business and industry and de- velop community life"
 Five guests at the Monday meet
 ing of the BPW club brought atten-
 dance to 42. Guests present includ-
 ed Mrs Inga Miller, Mrs. Elizabeth
 Lockridge, Mrs. Harriet Botelho,
 Mrs. Dorothy Oldham and Miss
 Helen John A surprise program
 was promised for the next meet

PLANTER OF TIME BOMB ON PLANE
 TO HANG JUNE B

QUEBEC, March l4-lR-A jury found J. Albert Quay guilty today of murdering his wife by planting time bomb on plane that killed her and 9 others. He was sentenced to be hanged.
 The court set June g for Guay's march to the gallows.
 The jury returned it's verdict IT minutes after Chief Judge Albert Sevigny delivered the fate of the 32-year- old Quebec jeweler into it's hands.
 Judge Sev.gny had asked the jury to return a verdict of guilty or in- nocence. The judge was weeping as he concluded his three hours ol in- structions to the Trench-speaking jury.
 He reviewed the evidence pre- sented by the prosecution, which had said Quay was guilty of "dia- bolicap crime in plotting to get rid of his wife to collect on a $l0,000 life insurance policy and clear the path for a romance with a Lretty young waitress.
 Throughout the entire trial the court had sought to prove that Quay had caused a time bomb to be placed aboard the Canadian Pa- cific Airlines plane which crashed at Sault Au Cochon, 40 miles from here, last Sept. 9.
 The victims of that crash in- cluded three New York officials of the Kennecott Copper Corporation President E. T. Stannard, Presi- ent-designate, Arthur D. Storke and Vice PreLident R. J. Parker.

 IN NEW CALEDONIA

 The complaint, filed by his at torney, N. c. Banfield, with the clerk of the district court, states Freeman married his wife, Lucienne, now 32 years old, in New Caledonia Novem- Der 13, 1945, and brought her to the United States in April of the following year.
 The couple have a year-old daughter, Jacqueline Marie.

Neither have re- turned, the complaint said, and his wife has indicated lon numerous times" she does not intend to re- turn to live with him, although able to do so at all times.

2-pIAN0 NUMBER ON PROGRAM FOR SCHApIR0 CONCERT

Music lovers attending the piano dedication concert Thursday ill the 20th Century Theatre will have the opportunity of comparing the new Baldwin concert grand piano with that on which Maxim Schapiro gave his previous concerts here
 Schapiro has been deep in plans for special surprise of his own. He longed to play the Chopin Con- certo in E Minor" which he per- formed as soloist with the Van couver, B.C., San Francisco and Hartof Hartford, Conn.,, Symphony Orchestras since appearing in Ju- neau. But that takes either an or chestra for the score as composed, or performance of the arrangement for second piano.
 Miss Shirley Jones, who was an artist-pupil of Schapiro in South ern California, has been in Fair banks since late fall. She appeared as entertainer at the Fairbanks Country Club with Royal OReilly, and remained to do radio work.
 She has played the Chopin con- certo with Schapiro. and will do so Thursday. Miss Jones arrived from Fairbanks yesterday via Pan Ameri- can AirwayS.
 The Chopin will be Schapiro's concluding number on the scheduled program, several Juneau musicians rounding out the evening with a sort of classical jam session"
 Schapiro will open his program with the "Appassionata" sonata of Beethoven. His other numbers in the first group vii be two preludes by Rachmaninoff; the IA short and charming romantic pages" from "L'Album de Madame Bovary" by Darius Milhaud. and Liszt's brilliant ''Polonaise in E Major"
 The Schapiro piano-dedication concert will be the opening event in the Juneau Concert Association series for which membership tickets are available. They may be obtained at the Baranof Hotel and other downtown locations.

PROBE IN ALL SECTIONS

WASHINGTON, March 14-tR- Federal Grand Juries sat in all sec- tions of the country today to return eleventh hour indictments for in- come tax evasions for the big war profit year of 1943.
 Justice Department officials said the cases before the juries involve many millions of dollars and a num- Der of operators of wartime racKets as well as business men who tailed to report all of their gains to the government.
 Under the law, indictments based on 1943 income must be returned before midnight tomorrow, March l5. in order for the government to prosecute. In the absence of action before the deadline, 1943 income cases are automatically washed out by the statute of limitations.
 The actions expected today and tomorrow represent the cleanup oi about 180 cases on which the Jus tice Departments tax division has completed work since the start of this year and sent out to the dis trict attorneys in every state.
 The evasions allegedly involved are "conservatively" estimated by the tax division at $15,000000.
 Indictments have been obtained in about 120 of these cases since Jan. 1, leaving about 60 for the last minute cleanup.

The W ashington Merry Go Round
lCopyriaht. l0b0. by Bell syndicate. Incl
 By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON Air Force is now designing supersonic B-36 that will be able to accomplish what hitherto was considered the impossible-a nonstop flight to Rus sia and back at the speed of sound This may be one answer to the debate over the super airplane carrier, for the Navy has contend ed that U. S. bombers would fly so slowly that they could be knock ed down by enemy fighter planes. Therefore the Navy urged float ing airplane base to approach the enemy.
 What this new bomber means, however, is that the Air Force will now be able to make hit-and- run attacks against Russia at tre- mendous speed from home bases in the United States. For example, a squadron of supersonic B-36's, based in Maine, could fly half way around the world, rain atomic bombs on Moscow and get back home in less than 10 hours.
 The plane, still on the drawing boards, is to streamline the present B-36 by giving it swept-back wings and a turho-prop engine. Most important of all, however, will be a supersonic propeller, already de- veloped by Air Force technicians. Hitherto only jet planes have been able to fly faster than sound. But the new propeller will permit
