'pR05pECTING' FOR SHRIMP IS PLANNED
 IN KETCHIkAN AREA

Shrimp prospecting" may soon begin in the waters around Ketchi- kan, c. L. Anderson, director of the Alaska Department of Fisheries said today.
 The planned prospecting of new shrimp grounds will depend on the willingness of a Ketchikan boat owner to operate under the same conditions as Harry Christman, now prospecting" for shrimp in the Gastineau Channel region in his boat the Lawco, operates.
 '@Ihe department can't afford to hire a boat and crew." Anderson said.
 Christman is exploring the waters near here aided by a small grant from the Territorial Fisheries de- parment. He is paid $10 per day each day he drags and charts new areas. His shrimp catches he sells locally.
 AIluGISO1l SdlQ plOoPSSoiiiS O~ the waters in the Ketchikan region for shrimp might easily open up year-round employment for fisher men.
 Pacific Pearl of Alaska, Inc, a packing company primarily inte- rested in crab fisheries, will be moving into a new Ketchikan plant in the near future. Managed by Richard DeCou formerly superin- tendent and manager of the Haines Packing Company and Crown Pack CTS plant at Hoquiam, Wash, the plant is expected to employ TO can nery workers and number of fish ermen and boats.
 The new plant will be in space leased from Ketchikan Cold Storage.
 Anderson quoted Ivar Wendt president of the Pacific Pearl com- pany, as saying that reported shrimp and abalone in the Ketchikan area has definitely interested him.
 Anderson expects to leave next week for Ketchikan where he will talk to fishermen about the explora- ton of shrimp grounds.

DAN AM MECHANICS
 START REPAIRS ON DAMAGED AIRCRAFT

Given mild enough weather for outdoor work, repairs should be completed in four days on the Pan American World Airways DC-4 which was slightly damaged Sunday when it overshot the Juneau run way.
 This is the estimate of Bob Jor- dan, who arrived this morning to take charge of repairing the air. craft. The only visible damage is to wing tip, and cut in the fuselage. A new aileron will be in- stalled
 On completion of the repairs at the Juneau airport, the ship will be flown to San Francisco, where it will undergo a thorough check, especially for possible stress which can be determined only in the shop.
 A cargo plane from San Francisco brought the eight t-man crew of mechanics and sheet metal experts, along with necessary parts. The ship had to overnight at Gustavus, but came in at o'clock this morn- ing, delivered it's load and left southbound immediately.

Alabama, Georgia twlthdraWnl Tennessee. North Carolina, Virgin ia Maryland, Alabama, New Jersey, Massachusetts. Rhode Island, Con- neoticut Maine and New Hamp- shire. Some were passed without discussion In six states, identical resolutions have been passed.
 Do the citizens of these states know that such a resolution has been put through their legislatures? Do they know that the scheme is 10 get enough state legislatures to pass the resolution to force the calling of a convention to amend the Constitution of the United States-an amendment which believe, no matter how fancy the words used, would make possible the abolition of the United States?
 Such a resolution has now been introduced in the legislature of the State of New York by Senator Wal ter J. Mahoney of Buffalo and As semblyman Irwin Steingut of Brooklyn. herewith give it's prin- oipal clauses:
 "Whereas, the United Nations, as presently constituted, although accomplishing great good in many fields, has not been given author lty to enact, interpret or enforce world law, and under its present charter is incapable of restraining any major nations which may fost- CT or foment war; and
 Whereas, the charter of the United Nations expressly provides, in articles 10s and 1O9, procedure for reviewing and altering the charter: and
 Whereas, many states have mem- orialized Congress, through resolu- tions by their state legislatures CT in referenda by their voters, to initiate steps toward the creation of a world federal government reserv- ing to the nations and to the people these rights not specifically granted as necessary to the estab- lishment and the maintenance of world law and order; and
 Whereas, many states have al- ready applied to Congress for the identical purpose proposed herein after in this resolution; and
 Whereas, several nations have recently adopted constitutional pro- visions to facilitate their entry in- to world federal government with powers adequate to assure peace; now, therefore, be it
 Resolved eff the Assembly con- cur), that application is hereby made to the Congress of the Unit ed States, pursuant to Article V of the Constitution of the United States, to call convention for the sole purpose of proposing amend ment of the Constitution to exped- ite and insure the participation of the United States in world federal government, open to all nations, with powers which, while defined and limited, shall be ade- quate to preserve peace, whether the proposed charter or constitution of such world federal government be presented in the form of amend ments to the charter of the United Nations, or by world constitution al convention, or otherwise. ,
 This is the most dangerous busi- ness that has yet come before our people. It would reduce the United States to a province of a world government that could bleed us as Soviet Russia is now bleeding it's satellites. I believe that some world organization is essential to lessen the prospect of universal war, but world government is impossible in view of the size and purposes of the enemy of the United States This country must still look to its defenses.

GOOD CITIZEN
Principles Of Good Citizenship
Must Be Pructiced in Own Home

the keystone, the microcosm, the
atom-that-can't-be-split of our re-
public.
Democracy must be based on
homes where the interests of man,
woman and child receive equal con-
sideration.
Whether in a crowded rooming
house or on the farm, the answer
must come from men and women
OF intelligence and good will who
look on the successful maintenance
OF a family as one of the greatest
acts of good citizenship.
Just as democracy starts in the
home as an obligation, it ends there
as reward. To the degree that all
the other duties of citizenship have
been fulfilled, your home will be
your castle, secure from the threat
of confiscation, and those in it safe
from detention camps and firing
squads.
OTIS WIESE, editor of McCall's
Magazine, said in an article, 1.-THE
home, we all agree, is the founda-
ton of the social structure. And
women are the bed rock under that
foundation. Any woman who
achieves success as a mother has
a more pervasive influence over
the next generation than any cell
of Communists. And her mothers
might certainly outweighs in social
significance the manufacture of mil
lions of can openers.
"The home, in effect, is the trans
mission belt of our culture, for it
is there that the child learns its
first lessons. 1t is the place where
our social health is either insured
or undermined insidiously :"

results of our system is to add up
our physical and cultural gains in

like killing two birds with one
stone" He grinned. II knew your
father and mother were going to be
away"
"Why, the very idea! II can't
believe you're serious"
Jerry Leonard scratched his head.
II was never more serious in my
life. Shucks! I'm sorry if you feel
the way you look"
"The way I look!" Sandra began
to wonder how she did look.
A dozen retorts came to mind but
they all seemed flat and inadequate,
almost silly. She hesitated for an
instant longer and then turned
abruptly and STROBE back to the
house.
Jerry Leonard watched her 60
and into his face there came a look
of disappointment.
THROUGHOUT the day Jerry was
conscious of a forlorn misery.
All his carefully formed plans had
proved fruitless. At o'clock he
drove home via route that did not
take him past the Hunter estate.
Leaving his coupe outside in the
drive he entered the cottage by the
rear door and found note on the
kitchen table, left there by his
mother, which advised him that she
had gone to church supper and
that if he didn't want to come too
he'd find some warmed-over things
in the oven.
Jerry moodily ate the warmed
over things and afterward stepped
outside to smoke cigarette. He
was about to ease himself comfort
ably onto the doorstep when he
CHANGED to glance toward the drive.
He blinked, rubbed his eyes, swal-
lowed. What the devil!" he said.
As he approached, the girl
who had been washing the auto
mobiles wheels Strengthened up
and stood off to survey her
work. 1t was Sandra Hunter.
"What the dickens" said Jerry,
"are you up to-"
"Oh," she said. Hello" She ges-
tured toward the coupe. DIRTY

for weeks"
"Wha-what?" said Jerry.
1--WE noticed you driving by every
day from my bedroom window. Rest
of the car looks fine, but you always
seem to forget the wheels. Very an
noying."
Jerry puckered up his brow. He
peered at the girl very intently. His
face was grave. He said, SIS that
all?"

hoping you'd speak to me for ever
so long, but you gave the impression

seemed like a logical method to
