CITY COUNCIL 0K'S OIL LINE TO LIGHT PLANT FOR STANDARD OIL co.

After earlier this spring reject ing Standard oil Companys request to be allowed to lay a pipe line from it's station to the city light plant to be able to compete with Union Oil Company, the City Coun- cil voted Tuesday to allow Standard to go ahead and build the line.
 Standards first offer was rejec- ted on the basis that the eity's business was equally divided be- tween the two plants. Reconsider atiOn was given when it was pointed out that if both companies had fuel line to the light plant, they would have to bid for the bus mess and the city would benefit from the cheaper rate.
 Approval of Standards line stip- ulates it must be laid according to city specifications.

Other Vandalism

Since the cross was extinguish- ed, Evans has noted other damage to church property by malicious persons using air rifles. Several panes of stained glass in the church have air rifle holes in them. sey- eral BB's have been shot against the manse and dead birds have been thrown on the porch.
 In April the City Council issued a warning that parents will be held responsible for damage done by their children using air rifles, BB guns or slingshots. and parents are subject to arrest and fine for such damage.
 The more serious result of the careless use of these weapons is the injury to smaller children who play in the area.

RidgWay Asks Reds Clear Armed Guards From KeasOng

MUNSAN (AP) - General Mat thew Ridgway told the Communists yesterday that the United Nations are ready to resume cease-fire talks but asked the Reds remove all armed personnel from the Keasong area, site for the peace talks. He suggested the negotiation site be moved if the Reds refuse.
 A message was broadcast from the Armed Forces radio at Seoul to Korean Communist General Nam Il, accusing the Reds of blocking the peace talks The United Ma tions delegation remained at it's base yesterday after armed Chinese guards refused to permit Allied newsmen to Kaesong.
 Ridgway proposed the Reds clear armed personnel from a circular area ten miles in diameter around the city. He suggested each side be limited to one hundred and fifty persons allowed to enter the neutral zone
 An answer from the Reds is ex- peeted by radio or through a liai- son officer at the United Nations lines. The Chinese Peiping radio carried an unofficial report to- lay accusing the Allies of using bluff and pressure" tactics.

 RUMMAGE SALE
 JULY 28 Wrangell Women's Civic Club

Organic Act which reads:
 That no member of the Leg islature shall hold or be appointed to any office which has been ere ated, or the salary or emoluments of which have been increased, while he was a member, during the term for which he was elected and for one year after the eXpira- tion of such term"
 There was, as may be suspected, a difference of opinion. Those who might have to dig down in their pockets to pay their own mileage and expenses nursed a chicken bone wish they could get rid of the Organic Act, and, incidentally toss in the Auditor, who in the matter of course has to approve travel vouchers. One member, whose mileage would be 15 cents, expressed a wish to get rid of the Attorney General, too. This latter, of course, was a bit of wishful thinking as the poor guy got him self elected and not even the Re- organization bill has abolished his office.
 So as Juneau sizzled in its un- usual SO-degree heat, and every body who could get away was doing the sensible thing of going fish ing, the brass hats of Territorial affairs were battling it out "-on this line, if it takes all summer" Otherwise, along the Territorial front, the situation was near nor nal.

The rumbling you probably heard from up around Juneau way this week, which sometimes reach ed beautiful cresendo, is nothing to be alarmed about. It was just the new Board of Administration attempting to. settle the affairs of state by means of the Reorganiza- tion bill which is no small job. Major explosions, as we undel 1 stand it, centered around whether the legislative members could col lect mileage for attending the session and what to do about an Auditor. Of course, the Territory had an Auditor and probably would struggle along, but mileage and pay for the legislative mem bers was reported to be quite an other matter. There was, darn it, that nasty old Section II of the

Shell new chairman

Sheldon Simmons, Shell" to everybody in Southeast Alaska where he with Alex Holden and Bob Ellis pioneered what is to- days modern air service to South east towns-A laska Coastal and Ellis Air Lines-is the new Chair man of the Alaska AeronauJics and Communications Commission. He was elected at a meeting of the Commission last week end in An-I chorage. Jack Carr, veteran West ward pilot, was reelected Secre- tary.
 Shell has been a member of the Commission since it was created by the Legislature of 1897 and served for years as it's Secretary. | A tops aviation man and familiar with every quirk of the Commis- sion in its IA years of helping to develop aviation and communica- tions in the Territory, Simmons i is an excellent selection to head un the agency and its a nice and de- serving compliment to man who has faithfully given of his time and effort Cat no pay) to the ser- vice of his Territory
 The Commission at it's Anchor. age session authorized expenditures for further float facilities in Southeast Alaska, including Sitka, Juneau and Ketchikan. Improve ment of the Wrangell facility had previously been authorized. The Commission probably kicked a. round verbally the Senate investi- gating committee report which charged there had been some she nanigans in connection with the Palmer airport but no statement was forthcoming. Director Tony Schwamm, who at last report had torn up IF replies to Senator Clyde Hoey's committee report without getting Commission ap- proval, probably had gotten around to drafting No. IS, what with try ing to get few airports built.
