CARPENTERS, CONTRACTORS FAIL TO AGREE ON WAGE
 AND WORKING CONDITIONS

A week of negotiations between the Alaska Council of Carpenters and the Alaska Chapter Associated General Contractors ended March IT without reaching an agreement on wages and working conditions for 1854, according to Tom Charl- ton of the local Carpenters Union, who attended this meeting.
 The employers group offered the carpenters the same agreement that was accepted by eight other building trades crafts on February 12, which provided for an hourly increase of 1212 cents per hour in the Westward and 1512 cent per hour in Southeast Alaska.
 The carpenters declined the em- ployers' offer and requested in ad- dition 10 the hourly increase an additional 1212 cents per hour in- crease for tool depreciation, which was declined by the employers.
 Unless both parties mutually a. gree to resume bargaining sessions at some later date the matter will probably be referred to the Federal eonciliation service.

one or two days and the children of Wrangell bounce back to health quickly.
 Marble shooting has given way to rope skipping and several sore muscles are noticed in high school boys and girls and even few mem- bers of the teaching staff.

 Several good pieces of furniture are being made in the high school shop class and it is hoped that an exhibit can be arranged in the spring so that everybody in town can see what the boys have been doing
 The fashion show for the girls sewing classes in homemaking is also on the schedule. but more a. bout those events later.
 Don't forget the P-TA talent show on April 10 in the high school gym.

eANADIAH SERVICE TO CONTINUE TO RYDER AND SKAGWAY

JUNEAU - The office of the Governor this week announced that the Senate committee on interstate and foreign commerce has reported favorable on a bill extending pas senger and freight service to cer- tain Alaska ports by Canadian yes- sels for another year.
 Gov. Frank Heintzleman, now in Washington, advised his office that the bill extends. until June 30. 1855, the privilege presently ac- corded Canadian vessels for the past several years under it's terms that they may carry freight and passengers between Skagway and other points in Alaska: Haines and other points in Alaska and between Hyder and other points in Alaska. or the continental United States either directly or via a foreign port. or any part of this transport ation.
 The bill was approved by the committee without amendment, the 1 Governor said, and added that the development of the wood pulp in- dustry in Southeastern Alaska will undoubtedly make extension of Am eriean steamship service in Alaska feasible but that it is unlikely any additional U. s. flag service will be economically justified before June 30, 1855.

The Washington group had
the flag, too, when searching
for the end Of the famous
Endless CavernS at New Mar
ket, Va, in 1910. They did
not reach the end, but they
planted the flag where they
stopped, so that the next
group of explorers could pick
up and carry it on.
In addition to a large rep
reSentation at the annual
dinner (this years was held
March l9). the Washington
group has provided the club
with at least one chuckle.
At one Of its monthly meet
ings the group invited an
expert on snakes, a member
from San Francisco, to speak.
A member associated with the
National Geological Park pro-
vided the snakes. During his
talk, two cobras got loose.

other dangers, was empty.
There were no casualties, "un-
less you count the loss of the
University Club as a meeting
place." says Col. Herford T.
Cowling, one of the two
founders of the Washington
group.
For Tuesday night meetings
here, informal lectures and
motion pictures are arranged.
Subjects range from .penguinS
and snakes to Oil explorations
in Northern Alaska, Philip
pine jungle life and peoples
of Southeast Asia.

of the monthly meetings, like
the Homecoming in New York,
