Fishing Season Picks Up

The Ambassador, tender owned by Whiz Halferty Can- neries Inc., arrived at the local cannery Wednesday with a maximum load of red sal mon caught in Cook Inlet.
 Local residents rushed to the dock to watch the un- loading of the fish.
 The Nuisance W. tender, arrived Thursday with a simi- lar cargo.
 The fishing season in the Inlet has been shortened by one day. It now closes on Fri day instead of Saturday, Frank McConaghy company official, said.
 Several locally owned boats and fishermen are now in the inlet working the run of red salmon.
 Both the catch and escape ment of salmon in the Red River area are more than twice last years figures, for the week ending last Saturday, Roy Lindsley, fisheries agent, said yesterday.
 The catch in the area for this year is 69, 176, and the escapement is 110,236. Last years figures for the same period were 31, 76O and 43, $50.
 The catch in the Karluk area for the same week was 271, ,218, more than last years, but the escapement was about 4,000 less.
 In the Alitak area. the escapement was 39, 708 and the catch only 1,491.

Navy To Stop
 Hauling Families

The transportation of de- pendents of naval and civilian personnel employed by the navy, by government trans portation or at government expense, to Alaska as well as to other destinations west of tlhe Pacific Coast, has been suspended.
 Cessation of such transport stion is effective July IA, the navy disclosed yesterday.
 However, dependents may travel to stations in Alaska at their own expense, the navy pointed out.
 Curtailment of transporta- ton of dependents was brought about by the need of vessels to carry men and SUD- plies to the far east.

City Seeks Other Funds For Dock

The city plans to apply to the territory for funds to re- place the money expended on the floats at the city dock early this year.
 The money, if forthcoming, will come from the gasoline
 tax fund but will not be a part of the much sought after $50 900, earmarked for the con- struction of a breakwater for the small boat harbor. Earlier the city proposed using the $5O,0OO for the inn provement of the city dock and floats but the proposal met heavy opposition from the United Fishermen of Alaska,
 AFL, in the form of a per- sonal protest and letter from Joe Kerrigan, secretary of the union.
 In a letter to the city this week Frank Metcalfe, terri torial highway engineer, said the city could apply for funds and that the $50,000 for the breakwater would not be used.
 The funds for the break water construction will be a. vailable, if and when the con- struction of the breakwater is started.
 City officials have estimated that the small boat harbor, with the proper facilities, will cost close to a half a million dollars.

Civil Defense Is Planned

A Kodiak civil defense pro- gram will be organized within a few days, Mayor Lee C.. Bettinger told the Chamber of Commerce Thursday.
 Residents should not be- come alarmed over the form ing of this defense unit. Other cities in Alaska are carrying out the same plans. It is more of a precautionary program than a defense meas ure. By forming the unit now we hope to avert panic and confusion in the event of an attack" <" Bettinger said.
 The plan will cover the e. vacuatlon of women and child ren to spots of safety and pro- vide for food and shelter. Fire fighting and the care of the wounded will also be consider ed.
 Residents will be called on to aid in the formation of the unit, he added.
 President MerrillCoon called on various committee chair men for reports and a discus sion of re-ordering a supply of Kodiak pamphlets was held. No definite action on the pamph- lets was taken.
 J. G. Martz proposed that the group send a copy of the pamphlet to U. s. Marshal Paul Herring because of his efforts to have one published while he was deputy marshal here.
 Guests attending the meet ing were John Walker, indus trial relations man, for Libby McNeill and Libby, Mrs. Mar shall Crutcner and Miss Betty Parks of Claremont, Calf.

Yank Troops Fall Back; Draft Status indefinite
By The Associated Press

By The Associated Press
 American troops, retreating in South Korea before the re- lentless offensive of the north Korean communists, fell back behind the Rum river and attempted to set up defenses that will hold until power for a counterattack arrives. Front dispatches reported communist guerrillas had attacked from the rear. while the Reds sent a small shock force across the Rum river signalling the opening of an offensive to break the last natural barrier before the provisional capital of Taejon.
 Meanwhile American and Australian fighter planes ranged the front, and behind lines taking a heavy toll of Red ground forces equipment.
 On the ground the Reds continued to use deadly, and now familiar, fanking and in- filtration tactics.
 The Americans who fell back were glum and bitter. Front dispatches said they talked of encirclements, in- filtrations and superior arma- ments and striking power. Anger swept American lines over the execution of at least IS American prisoners of war.
 Washington-President Tru- man said Americans had never had the tar licked out of them yet and predicted the Korean Reds would be driven back to their own territory.
 The President predicted that the tide of battle would turn shortly.
 Washington. D. CA de- cision on whether to call Ma tional Guard and Armed For ces reserves to active duty may be reached soon after the return of two members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff from the far east.
 Early this week the Navy department released a news bulletin advising the accep- tance of volunteer reserve officers and enlisted men of certain classifications.
 Some draft boards have been alerted but an Army spokesman said there is no plan now to issue another draft call.
 However, Selective Service has been ordered to draft 20.- 900 men and expects to have hem in camp by Sept. 30.

Parking Regulations Are Changed

Parking at the intersection of Alaska Way and South Mill Bay road has been prohibited. The city council has instructed the police department to place no-parking signs 20 feet from the corners.
 A letter from L. K. Wod- finger to the council request ing the action was read at the meeting Monday night.
 Wodlinger pointed out that motorists have difficulty mak- ing the turn at the corner when vehicles are parked in front of Bert's Drug Store and alongside Kodiak Motors.
 Taxi cab parking in front of the Orpheum will be prohibit ed during show hours the council decided. Among letters received by the council was one from J. G. Martz, part owner of the theatre, protest ing the, parking of cabs there. A new sign has been added to the front of Kraft's hard ware, grocery, and meat mar ket on Brooklyn avenue. Paul Bond did the work, as we'll as a new sign on Kodiak Motors.

Well Digger Trapped
In Shaft; Rescue
Efforts Are Futile

NEW YORK - While hundreds
looked on and prayed, Dominick
Aztec, trapped at the bottom Of 4
2O-foot well shaft for more than
27 hours, died shortly before res
cuers finally reached him.
Atteo's courage was unbeliev-
able. But burns, pain, exhaus-
ton and pressure of rocks and
earth were more than his strong
frame could stand.
The 45-year-old we'll digger was
trapped in the 20-foot shaft he
was digging beneath a Brooklyn
garage when the walls gave way.
He was buried to the armpits and
one leg was pinioned by a large
boulder.
Police emergency squads Ia
bored for IL hours to help the huS-
ky contractor dig himself out.
Then they abandoned direct res
cue efforts and started digging a
trench from a point 30 feet away,
constantly facing the risk that the
floor and roof of the garage might
cave in because Of the undermin-
ing.
Aztec was burned when a cigaret
lowered to him by his son, John.
26, came into contact with oxygen
pumped down the shaft. The son
lowered the cigaret at the request
of his father. Although police
had forbidden smoking in the vi
cinity, John consented when his
father kept begging for it.
More dirt and stone showered
down on the pinioned man. He
cried aloud at the pain from blast
burns on his unprotected face.
DR.. Harold Gerson was lowered
into the we'll and gave Aztec a hy-
podermic.
Just five minutes before rescu-
ers reached him, Aztec, writhing
with pain and almost out of his
mind, started struggling in the
wise that held him. His son warned
him to remain still and you'll
get out" 1t was too late. how
ever, Aztec was dead.

Pensioners Can
Live on S116
Income in Mexico

MEXICO CITY. Mexico-Mexico's
tourist commission is inviting all
Americans, who have at least an
income Of SIG a month, to come to
that country to live.
Says the commission, Mexico is
the land of mama for the pensioner
who has an income of 1000 pesos a
month. For that you can eat well.
live in a big colonial house and
even have a maid or gardener or
two.
1t has been possible for a long
time. both legally and from a peso
and centavo point of view, for pen
sioners to live in Mexico for SIG
a month. Even in the more fashion
able resort towns one can get room
and board for about $45 a month.
The commission, however, sug-
gests that those persons who have
little more than the legal minimum
of SIG a month to spend plan on
living away from Mexico City.
Rents are Low
mot that the capital isn't beau
tiful." the commission fastened to
say. 'but because it is cosmopoli-
tan, much like any other big city
in the world. and prices are higher
than in the smaller cities"
Monterrey and Guadalajara are
included among the smaller cities.
There are no taxes on foreign de-
rived pensions. Rents are low.
Food is cheap and plentiful and
such American "~luxuries" as maids.
cooks and laundry women can be
employed for less than $40 a month.
AS for the climate, one can find
almost any kind in Mexico. It
varies, not with the distance from
the equator, but with the altitude
above sea level.
Almost any area more than 1000
5000 feet in altitude has a comfort
able climate. Below that are the
tropical which many people
find uncomfortable for their ex-
IRENE heat and humidity.
Mexico City is the highest city OF
importance in Mexico. located at the
$500 foot level.
Winter Is Mild
Only during the height Of the
winter, usually between Christmas
and New Years, does the tempera-
ture drop as low as freezing.
The rest of the year Mexico is
warm but not unpleasantly So"
the tourist commission says.
The commission said not many
pensioners are taking advantage of
Mexico's tropical warmth and Lat
in hospitality.
DR.. Francisco Del Rio, who heads
the department, says, There T
hundreds of cities and towns
throughout Mexico where a person
or a family can live on next to
nothing"
