Promise To Exclude Alaska From Homestead Ban

Assistant Secretary to the h. terior Doty hastened to secure an amendment to the regulation issued last May which excluded Interior Department employees from acquiring land under the general homestead laws.
 The regulation, just brought to light last week, banned every employe of the department, or the husband or wife of an em- ploye, from acquiring public lands. Employees of The Alaska Railroad, Alaska Road Com mission, Fish and Wildlife Serv- ice and any other branch of the Interior Department who had homesteaded lands, built up their improvements and com piled in every detail with the homestead laws are denied pat ents under the ban, and are liable to eviction, the order being indefinitely retroactive.
 The Jack Henry Post, Ameri- can Legion, passed resolution hitting at the order, and it was carried to the Alaska Depart ment convention at Juneau this week. It will also be taken up at the national convention in Los Angeles in October, accord ing to J. C. Morris, post legis- lative chairman. The Legion is especially interested as large number of the homesteaders are veterans.
 On Saturday, Delegate Bart lett said that Alaska will be eX- cluded from the ban. He was advised by Doty that an amend ment to the regulation will prob- ably be made this week.
 This action, taken in re- sponse to protests made by me and many others will be favor ably received throughout Alas ka," Bartlett said. There is no valid reason why employees not concerned with the administra- tion of land should be denied the right to homesteads.
 Quick action by the Interior Department came on the heels of the resolution passed by the American Legion, sparked by J. C. Morris, member of the Territorial Republican Central Committee.

Unions Engineer Super Entertainment
 For 1850 Labor Dcy

More than 400 kids consumed 100 pounds of hot dogs, gallons of ice cream and cases of soda pop Monday afternoon while guests of the combined Seward unions at the Labor Day Kids Party. Grown men groaned at the quantities of food consumed, envying the capacity of the youngsters.
 The dance at night was not quite as well attended as some given on previous occasions be- cause of the large number of residents who were out of town moose hunting It was, however, a really big affair, and remarks on all sides today are to the eff feet that it was an extremely we'll handled and congenial crowd.
 Good music was provided by Chuck Anderson's orchestra and the Melody Mountaineers, a stringed quartet providing the added attraction which was most popular.
 The unions are being congrat- ulated for the success of their second annual kids party and dance.

The use Of paint and the desire
to decorate can be traced back to
the crude cave-wall daubings Of
primitive man.
Throughout the years. there has
been improvement in and accept
ance of paint both as a decorative
and protective material. Ready
mixed paint was the first real ma
jor contribution to the improve
ment of paint formulation. Then
it took World War II, with its
intensified scientific effort, to
bring about the second major con-
tribution-bodied oils.
Scientific research disclosed
that bodied oils increased the
flexibility. durability. flow. gloss
and in fact almost every desirable
quality of a wall coating.
One manufacturer. accepting

and perfected wall coating using
100 per cent bodied oils in formu-
lation with tough f1reproof asbes-
tos f1bers, chlorinated paraffin,

durability and f1exibility, paints
made up of 100 per cent bodied
oils can be expected to give top
service performance. For example,
according to the manufacturer,
this wall coating resists the dry
ing action of the sun when used
on an exterior surface and because
the pigments are sealed in the
bodied oil, the coating will not
chalk from the sun. In short, the
pigments are protected from the
destructive forces Of the sun,
wind, rain and frost.
This particular wall coating
forms a continuous covering that
is waterproof and will not absorb
water. thus adding years to the
life of any surface on which it
is applied. 1t is unaffected by
frost and cold weather.
The asbestos fibers knit the
bodied oils together. making it
possible to apply the coating In
one application many times the
thickness of ordinary paint. so
keeping it pliable and durable.
The surface can be compared to
the skin on the hands. Just as
resilient layers of flesh cushion
the skin and enable it to with
stand lifetime wear. so, too. does
the pliable underbody of this wall
coating cushion the surface. The
