Chamber
 Protests
 Mail Rate

Wrangen Chamber of Com merce at it's meeting Tuesday night in the Fire Hall authorized the wiring of formal protests to the chairman. Tom Murray, of the House committee on post office ana civil service and Delegate E. L.. Bartlett on the proposed raise in parcel post rates which has already been approved by Senate commit tee. The proposed boost would limit parcel post shipments to 30 pounds as against 70 pounds as at present. Certain rate increases according to zone also are contemplated.
 President Doris M. Barnes. in dispatching the wires. pointed out that in view of the high freight and express rates and the limited number of ships calling in Wran- geII, the proposed jump in parcel post rates would work a hardship on the merchants and residents of the community Many business houses, il was brought out at tic meeting, now receive much of their merchandise via parcel post because of the daily air service which gives fast transportation while Wrangell only gets a boat about every two weeks. thus causing long delays if orders are placed for water ship ment via freight or express.
 Communication was received by 4I oR n ha held in Juneau October 24 by the Coast Guard to take up the regula- tions in connection with the in- land waters of Southeast Alaska. Protests have been made on the present regulations. Chamber de- cided to get further information from Juneau headquarters of the Coast Guard and take the matter up at the next meeting which will be held at pm. october 16. If the situation warrants, an effort will be made to have a Wrangell representative at the hearing.
 Tn President was instructed to write the Army Engineers at An chorage relative to the dredging of the local harbor which has long been on the engineers agenda. Del egate Bartlett recently wrote that it was doubtful money would be made available for the project in this years budget.
 Joel Wing, acting chairman of the Deer Derby committee, reported 115 tickets had been sold thus far to derby entrants.

THROUGH THE SENTINEL PERISC0PE
The between"
s........ <

when James P. Davis, Director of inc Division of Territories and lnsular Possessions, Department of the Interior, came to Wrangell last January he declared himself to be the go-between" in demand ing the resignation of this Ferris eoper as the Secretary of Alaska. He said he was obliged to carry ous his instructions. Lew Williams at the time was in Wrangell in con nection with a serious illness in his family.
 After taking him around (to the Elks Club, of which he is not a member and, for one example, for which We also probably should be disbarred) we got to kicking it a- round with Jim, who isn't a bad guy. Upshot: You go up and talk it over with Ernest (meaning Err nest Gruening) and whatever you two figure out is the way il will be-"
 So we went to Juneau and short ly thereafter were in conference with the Governor Said he, in sub stance:
 Now Lew, I've always been a friend of yours, and still hope to continue to be. I haven't a thing to do with this business. It all comes from the Interior Depart ,,,o,t fr yEVoebipOfoy
 The reply:
 But Ernest, none of those peo- pie back in Washington know me. I'm an Alaska appointee. Tru- man doesn't know me, neither does Secretary Chapman. If it's Inter- for Department, it was sent there from Alaska, and you, my friend, are the man who has the contact"
 We banded around the names of some of the Gruening stooges such as Vic Rivers, former Senator, his brother, Ralph, former Attor- ney General, Representative Stan McCutcheOn and few more where Ernest would be likely to plant the seed. Pleading innocent to every thing. including the purge which was in the making, the all power full man who heads the government of Alaska, wound up with sleep on it, Lew. Why do you have to have the record? Why not just re- sign and have it over?" This from Ernest, who didn't know a thing about 1t.
