WRANGELL CANCER CRUSADE EXTENDED INTO JULY

Several more days are needed for the Wrangell unit of the Amer jean Cancer Society to complete it's drive for this community's quota in the annual nation -wide educa- tional and fund-raising crusade, it was announced today by the local committed Tabulations, it said, of returns show that Wrangell is still short of last years total.
 The committee is appealing anew to those who have not yet contrib uted to send in their gifts to the Concer Society, Wrangell, as soon as possible in order to fulfill this towns part of the national effort, according to Mrs Joyce Hay, local chairman.
 It was pointed out that increase in the cancer problem and the en- couraging growth of the fight a. gainst that disease calls for an in crease in the American Cancer So- ciety budget. Also. 1t was added, more funds are needed for the So- ciety's educational program. Some 75,0OO men, women and children died needlessly of cancer last year, while more professional and public edu nation might have saved many of them despite the present exten- sive educational program.
 The committee urged that all who have not done so, please send in their contribution soon.

PLANS ACCEPTED FOR PINT CONSTRUCTION
 AT SHOEMAKER BAY

Detailed plans and specification for construction of sawmill plant at Shoemaker Bay on Zimovia Highway have been presented to the U. s. Forest Service and accept ed by that agency as of today, c. Dean Johnson, Jr., construction engineer for Pacific Northern Tim Der Company announced here to- day. The plans are in accordance with the government contract for 339,O00 acres of timber in this area.
 Johnson, who has charge of com pany activities here, said steel buildings with concrete footings will be erected at the now desig- mated site, probably around the first of the year. Meanwhile, eff forts are being concentrated on a thorough cruise of the timber un- der contract to determine what areas will first be logged.
 A new development in aerial cruising is being undertaken by the company and Verlyn Thomas, consulting photogrammetrist, of Engene, Ore, is here with company officials going over aerial photos recently taken in the area, prepar- ing contour maps and assisting in field work.
 Also in the party here presently are Turner Ross, assistant to John- son, and Irving Carlton, veteran Oregon timber cruiser. The latter will be in the area permanently and expects to bring his family here, possibly in the fall.
 Also employed in the timber cruising party is Mike Hay, of Wrange.l, as compassman.
 Cruising will be continuous from now on, or, as Johnson pat it, we'll be doing it for the next 10 years, at least"
 Buildings at the plant will be pre-fab steel which can be raised in limited time. Johnson estimates that once that work is started, major structures can be erected in about 120 days Dry kilns and other buildings will be built at the site as operations get underway.
 First mill and equipment is esti- mated to cost around $1,7OO,0OO and total outlay is expected to run approximately four and half million dollars.

THROUGH THE SENTINEL PERISCOPE
Native Land Not Taxable

A decision of particular interest to Wrangell, Sitka and Kodiak, Al aska's three oldest towns which have substantial amounts of Indian lands within their limits, was handed down by District Judge J. l.. McCarrey, Jr., in the federal court in Anchorage last week.
 The court upheld the constitu- tionality of the federal law grant ing native Alaskans certain parcels of land and permanent immunity from property taxation.
 The decision was made against the city of Kodiak in case filed by the U. s. government through the Alaska Native Service. Kodiak contended the law was unconstitu- tional because it deprived the city of it's right and power to levy tax es. The land belonged to the na- tives within the Kodiak city lim- its. It had been placed on the pro- perty tax rolls and then the city had attempted to foreclose on tax liens. The Judge ordered the land stricken from the rolls and perman ently enjoined the city of Kodiak from returning it to the tax rolls.
 Lawmakers Barred
 Another decision in the Ancor- age court the past week will bar members of the last Legislature from serving as delegates to Con- stitutional Convention in College in November. In the case of Bob Kederick of Juneau against Rep. Burke Riley of Haines, the court ruled in favor of the Juneau news paperman who had sought an in junction against Riley serving as delegate on grounds it was in vio- lation of the Organic Act which provides a legislator cannot hold office under an act which he as member of the Legislature helped to create. Unless Congress comes up with an amendment to the Organic Act, not considered likely, members of the 1855 Legislature will not help draft a state constitution.
