Saxophone Serenade.
The two alert and lively oldsters
were even serenaded by a saxo-
phonist Congressman - Repre-
sentative Pat Sutton, Democrat,
of Tennessee-who spoke of the
inequities of the Taft-Hartley

Representative Sutton is a union
man who used to play with a
Nashville dance band.
The celebration came about as
the result Of a picnic several
years ago. j. Martin Emerson,
the present secretary, heard that
the two old-timers were on hand
for the doings. Inquiries showed,
that here, indeed, were two of the
locals first officers, believed to
have been long gone.
Quite to the contrary, Mr.. Tan
sill, of 6007 Fourth street NV,
and Uncle Joe," of 518 Varnum

active and independent.
Looking over a mildewed ledger
showing the 25-cent dues of the
old organization, Mr.. Tansill re-
called that his salary in those days
was $3.50 per quarter.
Sometimes I got it and some
times I didn't" he said. "Many's
the phone call and street car fare
I spent-but it's all right"
And turning to Mr.. Caldwell he
added: I'VE were always buddies.
And we appreciate everything
that's been said and done about
us recently"

Supreme Court To Hear Alaska Fish Case January ]

The U. s. Supreme Court, which has agreed to hear arguments on Alaska's controversial nonresident commercial fishermens license, has set the week of January 2 for the case according to the office of J. Gerald Williams, attorney gen. eral.
 Williams and John H. Dimond, assistant attorney general, have prepared briefs in support of the tax from which the Territory has already collected some $350,000 in revenue.
 The U. s. Court of Appeals in San Francisco recently ruled that it was illegal for the Territory to collect $50 fee from nonresident fishermen, and only $5 from resi- dent fishermen. Among other points, the appellate court said the act was discriminatory and discour- aged interstate commerce.
 Williams and Dimond will both appear before the Supreme Court when the case is heard.

CLIO Says Red Killings May Reath 5000

TOKYO, Nov. 20 - tR - Allied headquarters said today there is considerable evidence" that about 5000 American soldiers died in Red atrocity killings although bodies of only 365 have been recovered.
 The statement from Gen. Mat thew B. Ridgways headquarters made no mention of Communist countercharges of Allied atrocities.
 Each side accused the other of atrocities in Korea while the Pan- munjOm circus tent truce talks were in one-day recess asked by the Communists. The Reds wanted time to study United Nations proposal for tentative cease-fire.
 General headquarters of the LIN. Command made it clear the report of wholesale Red atrocities issued last week by Col. James M. Hanley did not involve an increase in the known American dead in the Ko- rean war.
 There were two notable diff ferences between the CLIO re- port and Hanley's. The headquar- ters' figure of 6,0O0 was nearly 800 above Hanley's. The Colonel listed his total as definitely atro- city victims. CLIO said neither the fact nor manner of death" of all has been established.
 It also gave Hanley this mild reprimand for releasing the figures His duties do not involve respon- abilities for reporting of casualties arising from the Korean opera tionS."
 of the 10,836 persons (Ameri- cans) still carried as missing in &C., tion," the report said, there is no conclusive proof as to the number of dead, though there is consider able evidence to justify presumption of death by atrocity of a large number which may approximate 5000"
 Broadcasts from Red radios in Pyongyang and Peiping conceded some American prisoners of war had died in prison camps but denied the report issued by Colonel Hanley of the Eighth Army's legal section as an absurd lie" and a islander ?
 Red radios in turn accused the Allies of CD killing 17000 Chinese and Korean Red prisoners of war or allowing them to starve to death, @ killing or injuring 14.500 North Korean civilians in bomb raids, and (3) shipping out 1000 Korean and Indochinese Reds for use in atomic tests.
 A LIN. Command spokesman called the atom story pure fab rication."

Plan Sci for Alaska
 Sports Fishing
By FRANK W. vAILLE

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20 - R = Approval of a long-range program designed to keep game fish in Alaska's streams is announced by the US. Fish and Wildlife Service.
 Prepared by the Alaska Depart ment of Fisheries, the program will be administered by the Fish and Wildlife Service. Biologist Urban c. Nelson of Juneau will head the program.
 John s. Gottschalk, assistant chief of the services federal aid branch, said it is needed because of heavy sport fishing by increasing numbers of servicemen and civilians.
 It is aimed at increasing the number of lake, brook, rainbow and cutthroat trout and grayling.
 As projected. the program in- wolves a three-year study to lay the groundwork for future development. It will seek to determine areas of fishing concentration, types of fish caught and means of spreading the fishing pressure into areas not now utilized. The latter includes stock ing barren streams and lakes where fish are not now found.
 Ways will be sought also to over come the limited natural produc- ton of Alaska waters by increas- ing the available food supply.
 Although the three-year program will cover most of Alaska, attention will be given first to Southeast Alaska and to the Anchorage and Fairbanks areas where population is heaviest.
 Participating will be the US. For est Service, National Park Service, the Alaska Command and the Uni versity of Alaska.
 The study will cost an estimated $120,000 with first year expenditures figured at $35,000 It will be fi- nanced from the territory's $75,000- a-year share of the federal aid to fish restoration program-amassed through a ten percent excise tax on sports fishing equipment.
