HENDER50N'5 LADY
Hank SAILS SOUTH
FRIDAY MORNING

Retracing the long trail his par
ents took him over when he was a
year and half old at the time of
the gold rush in 1898 into the Yu-
kon, led H. A. Henderson north on
his ketch rig with his wife and
daughter.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henderson and their
daughter, Mrs. Gloria Hall, made the
trip aboard their SO foot sailing
boat from San Francisco leaving
there about June Is and arriving
here about 10 days ago. Mrs. Hall
left for the states by Pan American
but her parents continued to Skag-
way on the Prince George.
Arriving III Whitehorse over the
White Pass and Yukon Railroad, the
Hendersons boarded a river boat
for Dawson City When they arriv-
ed there, they found no overland
transportation available to contin-
ue the trip out to Dominion Greek
where the Henderson claim had
been. f
Mr.. Henderson's father had a
store here in Juneau at the time
of the gold rush. With the others
he got the gold fever and took his
wife and year and half old son
over the route his boy and wife just
retraced.
Mr.. and Mrs. Henderson flew into
Fairbanks from Dawson City. TAX
ing the bus from Fairbanks to Hahn
es, the couple returned to Juneau
from Haines by air.
With the replacement of two lines
today, the Hendersons will leave
tomorrow on their ketch rig for
San Francisco. Their route south
will take them by way OF Seymour
Narrows, Victoria where they Will
stop to pick up two auxiliary sails,
stop at the Columbia River and
then home. The trip south will take
about three weeks.
Mr.. Henderson. formerly an insur-
ance salesman, didn't like the CON
| finement his job made for him. He
invested in a laundry at Modesto
Calf, with another man and now
the two take turns at vacations
The Lady Hank of San Francisco
the Henderson ketch rig, sleeps
four people easily and is equipped
with radio telephone and "A
horsepower auxiliary Gray motor
She carries $40 gallons OF fresh
water, 1855 gallons of gasoline for the
motor and rs gallons OF Kerosene
for cooking and lamps. The ketch
said Henderson, cannot ship water
with the closing of the hatch be-
cause the cockpit is self balllng
The Hendersons will take the boa'
to San Francisco themselves without
a third party because the ketch Is
that easily handled.

Do You Want To Cut
Your Federal Taxes?
Your Wasted Taxes

No reasonable man questions the
need for taxes to pay the cost Of gov
ernmental services Everyone should
be Wiling to pay fair share Of his
income for that purpose. But nobody
wants to undelwrite Extravaganza
IN the home, in business or in govern
meut.
The bipartisan Commission on Or
ganization OF the Executive Branch of
the Government, created by Congress
with the approval Of President Tru-
man and headed by former President
Hoover, has provided chart for the
elimination Of governmental eXtrava-
gance and waste.
This past year, because Of duplica-
ton and overlapping in the Armed
Services we wasted about one billion
out of the fifteen billion spent for
National Security.
In 1913 two agencies planned to
build the same dam in nearly the same
place at Helps Canyon, Idaho. Each
set Of plans cost about S250,000. The
plans differed by approximately 70
million dollars in estimated cost of
erection.
II now costs the Post Office Depart
ment two and q half cents to print and
deliver a penny post card.
The Veterans Administration, at the
time Of the Commissions survey, had
$500 empty beds in its hospitals, yet
VA and other government agencies
have planned or are building addi-
tional hospitals at a cost of over a bill
lion dollars, when $40 of the avail
able beds are not now occupied. This
is Alice in Wonderland.
1t takes more than $40 worth of
paper work to complete a govern
mental purchase order. For example,
by the time the necessary paper work
is completed, SOC typewriter ribbon
costs the taxpayer about $40.
Turnover Of labor is recognized by
all industry as expensive. Yet in the
Federal Government labor turnover
runs about 25 per cent, a rate much
higher than any private business could
stand. This means that every year
approximately 100000 either leave or
enter a government job, The person
mel system is cIogged with red tape.
The best men leave because of the
low pay scale, and the inefficient can
not easily be discharged.
If enacted into law, the Commission
recommendation to remedy these and
other defects in conducting our Fed
eral business would save the taxpayer
three to four billion dollars a year.
To play your par in putting a stop
10 this wasteful extravaganza, join
the non-partisan Citizens Committee,
which is working for The enactment of
the Commissions suggestions. Write

ganization of The Executive Branch of

Annual Health
Check Advised

THE beginning of 1850 is a most
appropriate time for persons Of all
ages to pause long enough to take
stock Of their health assets and
liabilities" according to advice just
issued by Dr. X. H. Riley, Director Of
the State Department of Health
Every Marylander who has not had
a thorough examination since last
January should by all means go to a
physician for a check-up at this time.
"An annual medical examination is
strongly recommended for all per-
sons, even for those who consider
t h e m elves extremely healthy.
Young children and the aged should
have more frequent checks. EXami-

Free State Forestry

Before spring planting time slips
up ON us, it might be good idea to
consider putting some Of those "idle
acres" on our farm to work earning
some money for us.
What idle acres? Well, how about
that hillside pasture that's Just too
steep to hold the lime and fertilizer?
All that's growing on it now is
poverty grass and broom sage. Or
maybe those odd corners around the
farm that are too small or broken up
to do anything with {? You'd be hard
put to find a better use for them than
a good pine plantation. Within eight
or ten years some of the trees could
BE- thinned out for Christmas trees.
In ten years more another thinning
could be made, and this time the
trees would be big enough for pulp
wood on small pole products. Within
fifty or sixty years the stand should
hc producing high quality saw tim
ber for sale or use around the farm
During all this time the plantation
serves lot Of useful purposes. In
the first place it increases the value

the right place it viii form a good
windbrcal for the house and barn.
And it serves as an excellent cover
for wildlife. There's no place the deer
like to hide out in more than dense
pine plantation.
The best part of all is that a plan
tation can be set out for about $500
an acre. Seeding stock can be bought
for very low price from the Depart
ment of Forests and Parks. Don't
hesitate about starting a plantation
because you haven't planted trees be-
fore, or don't know what species to
plant, or how to do it. Just drop a

Pedestrians Have
Their Rights Too,
Drivers Are Told

H. S. Weaver, Chief of Police
of East Cleveland today warned
local motorists that pedestrians
have rights too!
"If you're the person behind the
Wheel" he said, "you must re-
member that the person on foot
has the right-of-way over auto
mobiles in some situations"
The following reminders to driv-
ers about pedestrian right-of-way
were offered by Chief Weaver:
(D When pedestrians are cross
ing at unsignalized intersec-
tions, drivers must give
them the right-of-way if
they are walking within
any crosswalk.
(2) When pedestrians are cross
ing at signalized intersec-
tions they should obey the
signals, but, drivers turning
right or left must yield the
rlght-of-Way to pedestrians
crossing on. the "green" or
walk" light.
CD Pedestrians do not have the
right-of-way between inter
sections. They should cross
only at corners.
(43) Drivers should be alert for
pedestrians crossing be-
tween intersections, particu-
larly at night, even though
the walkers may be at fault.
Pointing out that accidents in
volving pedestrians account for
one-third of the traffic deaths in
Ohio every year, Chief Weaver
came up with this slogan:
Don't be a Killer Obey all
Traffic Laws"
