 FOR FAIRBANKS

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Jan. 13-LR Plans for construction of an aight-story, 21O-unit apartment and business building-the largest in Alaska-have been announced.
 Philip A. Johnson, President Of the Bank of Fairbanks, estimates the cost at $3000,000
 Announcement was made in be- half of the bank directors and Reed and Martin IncY the pro- posed builders and co-owners of the projected structure.
 The building will occupy a full block.
 Final determination to erect the building will hinge upon the abil- ity of the contractor to complete it with funds available under the FILA commitment.
 Preliminary plans call for the entire ground floor to be used for commercial business establishments, with the seven floors above for apartments.
 These will consist 70 percent of efficiency no-bedroom units, con- aiming a kitchenette with electric range and refrigerator.
 Warm storage will be provided in the basement for 75 automobiles and additional storage space for tenants.
 The building will consist of a steel frame, with insulated alum mum panel curtain walls While this type has been used in the states, it is an innovation for ter ritorial housing purposes. Interior trim will be of dry-wall constuc ton and floors will be of aluminium panels, overlaid by concrete slab and asphalt tile.
 Metal doors and thermopane win doWs will eliminate all wood cons truction, making it as fireproof as possible.

The burglary case against IT, year-old Walter J. Yatehmanoft of Sitka went to the jury late this forenoon.
 The government charges Yatch- manoff, an Aleut native, with two counts of burglary and attempted rape as an outgrowth of two apart ments teing entered in the old cap ital last october 29. Two women, a mother and daughter, occupied one apartment, and lone woman the other.
 Defense counsel John A. Mclean put the defendant on the stand yesterday afternoon, following the closing of the governments case, presented by District Attorney r. J. Gilmore, Jr.
 Yatchmanoff testified he had several drinks at a friends house after which he intended to visit another friend in the same apart ments which were entered by an intruder. He said he recalled being in one apartment, but could not remember entering another.
 Mclean, prior to having the youth take the stand, made mo- tion that testimony presented by the government involving an al legged confession be stricken be- cause of constitutional rights being violated, on the basis of a juven- iles inability to know his rights and signing papers.
 Federal Judge George W. Folta hearing the case, refused to grant the motion.
 Yatchmanoff, under direct ques- tioning icy Mclean, told about his being questioned while held in the Sitka city jail, and said he was scared to talk against them meaning his questioners. He admit ted declaring he was after wo- man" but said the statement was not true.
 q didn't read the statement be said, typed up by the U. s. Com missioner while I told my story, because I knew what would be on the paper. I read it about hall way through, and then signed it."
 Judge Folta asked Yatchmanoff if he thought you would be bet ter off if you signed this confess sion?" to which the youth an- swered that he didn't know"
 Previous testimony, brought forth by the prosecution, brought out that an unidentifiable intruder entered an apartment in which 8 mother and daughter were in ted and that he left after saying, T must be in the wrong apartment.
 Another government witness tes- tified she was able to identify the man, and that he left after she made movements toward a pistol in a dresser drawer.
 Presentation of testimony closed yesterday afternoon, after which Assistant District Attorney Stanley Baskin reviewed the governments case to the jury, followed by De- fense Associate Mrs. Mildred R. Hermann. Gilmore completed the prosecutions review this morning, and after the jury heard Judge Foltas instructions, they retired to consider their verdict.

More About Cos

nNCE BEFORE we were compelled to COM
" ment about the deplorable situation that
confronts those of us who depend upon the
Gas Co. for their heating fuel, not to mention
cooking.
earthly o why the people of this COM
muntiy should be subjected to this torture each
winter We said that the Gas Co, officials could,
by sending a little of their profits and by using
their heads for other purposes besides figuring
how to rake in profits from the people,
take measures to aliviate this deplorable situa-
ton. Every time there is cold spell - and
even the Gas Co. bigwigs ought to know that
cold spells come in the winteT-there is trouble,
serious trouble with gas pressure. Furnaces
go out, endangering homes and those who live
in those homes. The same thing happens to
automatic gas water heaters.
And ON top of il all when it's time to start
cooking, the poor mother finds that the gas
pressure is too low thus making cooking an
ordeal.
This abominable situation is bad in most
parts of the city. But in some sections it is i'm
possible; it is actually health hazard
Well, gentlemen of the Gas Co., and gentle
men of City Hail. what's going to be done
about this impossible situation? God knows
we get enough gas out of City Hall in all kinds
of weather, but how about making it possible
for the people of Toledo to get some gas out
OF the Gas Co? Or is this too much to ask?
Could it be that the profits of the Gas Co. are
more important than the health and welfare of
our own people?

Price And Wage Controls

FENHE GOVERNMENT has now ordered wage
IL and price controls in the automobile indus
try. While at this moment it is impossible to
judge how effective these controls may prove
to be; nor can we at this stage try to evaluate
its possible beneficial effects, we are of the
opinion that this type of "pece meal' applica-
tiOn of such basic policy will not bring about
the desired results
First of all, controls must be universal in
every branch of our economy it seems to us
- if they are to work We cannot conceive of a
situation where controls will be applied in one
industry and not in the rest Our industrial life,
our economic system is far too integrated to
permit the application of controls in limited
areas.
MOREOVER, 1T SEEMS to us that the So
AVA called formula devised as basis for in
Producing these controls not just. The base
period chosen for establishing profits for indus
try actually constitutes the years wherein in
dustry generally was harvesting unprecedented
and record shattering profits At the same time
prices of commodities that determine the cost
of living for the masses of people were unreal
istcally high. There was real or equitable
balance between the earnings of industry and
business generally and the wages of those who
have to work for a living
Therefore, il seems to us that controls based
ON conditions of this nature cannot bring bene-
fetal results. This would be the situation even
If controls were applied firmly and universally.
With the "piece meal" application of controls
ON this basis S the results cannot possible be
satisfactory to the wage earners even though
such controls may prove to be very satisfactory
to business and industry generally.

Ali Members Grow
Bacon Type Hogs .

Production of TamWorth hogs
is enabling 4-H Club members of
Rockingham County to meet the
increasing demand for locally
grown, high quality bacon, says
w. F. Wilson, assistant county
farm agent for the State College
Extension Service.
Wilson says the club members
have obtained some of the best
breed that can be found in the
country. They selected this bacon
type, he adds, because Tam
worths grow rapidly and can
feed themselves almost entirely
on pasture. Tamworths, he adds
also farrow large filters and feed
their pigs well until weaving
time.
d.. Tuttle, Jr., sen of Mr.. and
Mrs. Dewey Tuttle, Route L,
Stoneville, has registered Tam,
worth SOW that farroWed SIX
male and six female pigs. He
didn't lose any. On Ladino-orch-
ard grass pasture the pigs have
made outstanding gains. This lit
ter, prize winner at the Leaks
vile fair, is now ready for sale.
D. L. plans to breed the sow to a
registered boar for another litter
next spring.
George knight, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. ]. R. Knight, Route Relds-
vile, has several registered Tam
worth sows and produces excell-
ent pigs for the local market.
He entered four registered gifts
in the State Tamworth sale at
Rocky Mount and sold them for
a good price.
Edmond Albert, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. S. N. Albert, Route 2,
Stokesdale, is another TamWorth
breeder who is producing excell-
ent quality bacon-type pigs. He
has litter of IL which are more
than a month old.
Owen Young, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Harmon Young, Route l,
Stokesdale, has been producing
excellent breeding stock for sew
eral years. He has several boar
and sow pigs old enough for
next spring.
