minent Attack
ALSO THE GALL CLEAR"

The Federal Office of Civil De-
fense in cooperation with the Con-
tinental Air Command of the Unit
ed States Air Force has announced
the adoption of a two-stage public
warning code to announce immin-
ent attack and the subsequent "All
Clear. These alerts are as fol-
lows:
a. Red Alert: Attack immin-
ent-Hostile aircraft have been
identified and are within the Air
Defense sector or within adjacent
sectors with high probability Of
entering the subject Air Defense
sector. The signal to the public
will be of three minute duration.
1t will consist of fiuctuating or
warbling signals of varying pitch
by sirens, or series of short blasts
by horns or whistles.
b White Alert: All clear
This notification will be given when
danger of Red Alert air raid warn
ing is over. The signal to the pub
lie will be series of three steady
one-minute blasts by sirens, horns
or whistles, interrupted by silent
periods of two minutes each.
The Red Alert is the on-the-
spot final warning and requires the
immediate compliance with pro-
cedures prescribed for the protec-
tion of life and property.
a. In the event the Red Alert
is the first alarm received, mobil-
ization of civil defense forces will

ness and industry should take COW
er or go to shelters previously

C. Where shelters have not been

cover in the nearest modern build
ing or other suitable underground

of Educational Resources which
was distributed by DIR George R.
Miller, Jr., State Superintendent
of Schools.
e. Persons in homes or other

undermining With Glass

Many home owners, in moderniz-
dng their houses, are making pro-
visions for larger glass areas which
bring life to dull or slightly out
moded building. The free entry of
sunlight and air into the home,
from attic to the basement, is be-
ing accomplished in many homes
through the increasing use of cor
ner windows, glassed-in dining al
coves, french doors, and even room
length walls of glass.

Ever since 1942, when they wer first hired in numbers as wartim measure, there has been controver sy about the employment of Alask' Eskimos in the Bristol Bay salmol canneries.
 A number of teachers and mis sienaries have asserted that tn cannery employment is bad fo the Eskimos. It takes the Eskimo: away from their homes, it is claim cd, at a time when they ought tc besputting up fish and making other preparations for the winter.
 Moreover, these same people say the wages earned in the canneries are less valuable to the Eskimo fam lilies than the foods they would be able to store during the summer ii they stayed at home, since the money is often spent for unneces- sary commodities, including liquor
 On the other side of the picture, Father Jules N Convert, s. J., long familiar withS the Eskimos of the Hooper Bay area, believes the sum- mer cannery employment has been of definite benefit to the Eskimos.
 Tn a report on the situation a couple of years ago, Father Convert wrote that after the Hooper Bay EskimoS began working in the can- neries the local trend of excess of death over birth was reversed. Since previously so many babies died, l feel pretty sure that the material improvements realized with the cannery payroll are the direct cause of this new trend"
 To this statement Father Convert added: Tn Hooper Bay also, l have noticed the good that came to the individual characters as result of their experiences on the Bay. Some have acquired there an ambition to improve their knowledge of English and their skills in order to event. ually get better job; they are also acquiring a new sense of responsi- bility and taste for work well done. "
 In the present season on Bristol Bay, the resident Eskimo cannery workers, along with other groups, were caught between the battle lines oi the Sailors Union and the Long shoremen, both seeking jurisdiction over fishing in the area. And, as so frequently happens, the bystanders were more injured than the com- batants.
 Father Convert, who seems to have been in the thick of this r,sxi1risdictipnal fight, wrote pr6pheticafiy two years ago.

Ralph Mielke is Home from Korean Battlefront

The war in Korea is brought close to home when one hears the experiences of Corp. Ralph M. Miel- ke, son of Mir. and Mrs. Max Miel- ke of Glacier Highway, home under the army rotation plan after nine months of battle.
 | Overseas since October 1949 when he was transferred to Japan, Mielke served on Hokkido, the northern most island. There he was assigned to the 3lst Infantry Regiment. 7th Infantry Division. When the Korean war broke out ] he took part in the Inchon landings and later in the invasion of Iwon in North Korea.
 His group was trapped in the Chosen Reservoir, but they were evacuated to Hungnam.
 The 7th Division then reorgan- ized and once more he crossed over the 38th parallel on the central front.
 Corporal Mielke was one of 29 men out of 197 in his company including some Republic of Korea troups-who survived. During the engagement. all officers in this headquarters company were lost.
 Young Mielke enlisted in Janu- ary 1949, took his basic training at Camp Breckenridge, Ky, and was then stationed at Camp Hood, Tex as with the 2nd Armored Division. He served there for seven months until his transfer to Japan.
 His furlough in Juneau will end July 29, then young Mielke who is enjoying his vacation at home vis- iting his family and friends will report to Fort Lewis for reassign- ment.

Fishing Gefs Underway

Fishing in Southeast Alaska got underway Monday as predicted by Peter Nielsen, secretary treasurer of the Alaska Marine District Un- ion before he returned to his Sitka headquarters at the end of the week.
 Nielsen said the fishermen in his organization would supply oanner- ies with fish this season. His union is a division of the Seafarers h. ternational Union of the American Federation of Labor.
 Nielsen, with Bill Peters, presi- dent of the MDU, was in Juneau conferring with Kenneth Bowman, AF'L organizer in Alaska and Pete Gilmore, Alaska Salmon Industry representative here.
 The MDU has two contracts signed with the industry, one for the seiners and one for cannery workers. The MDU cannery work CTS union is the exclusive bargain ing agency for canneries in thss area and with 600 members covers all of Southeast Alaska, Nielsen said.
 Both Peters and Nielsen, whose homes are in Sitka, are purse seine fishermen.
 Outside fishing for sockeye sal mon began Monday and canning operations on the outside will start this week. The general canning sea- son in the Southeast district is from August 6 to Sept. B. Accord ing to Nielsen, it is hoped that an earliec opening will be considered.
