Federal Trade Commission Completes Hearing Here

The hearings, which were con- ducted in the Union hall evinced considerable interest among the fishermen. The complaint was is sued June 27, 1855. Hearings were scheduled for the following Sep tember, but were postponed. When the order to cease and desist was issued, the canneries compiled and filed an answer, and thus were not involved in the present hearing.
 The hearings held in Seattle the week prior to the session in Ko- diak, processed testimony of gov ernment witnesses mainly. Lowell and Howard Wakefield, Lloyd Powell, Pete Deveau, Don Bing- ham and Kenny Woods testified in Seattle.
 Among witnesses heard here were Alfred Nelson, Lefty and Jean AL ho, Lloyd Cannon, Cory Kaldestad, Pat Mulian, P J. Kerrigan, Al (Cowboy) Styling, Sue McAllister, Hiram McAllister, Bruce Cole, FL don Lester, Tiny Cichoski, Al Levine, Ralph Jones and others.
 Fletcher Cohn, Legal Advisor for the Commission, sought to es- tablish collision between officials of the Cooperative and the Union in establishing the price of crab. He constantly interrupted testi- mony of witnesses as irrelevant and immaterial He objected to testimony by respondent witnesses as to conversations they had had with government witnesses who had appeared before the hearings in Seattle.
 P. J. Kerrigan, Secretary-Treas- urer of the Union, in his testimony stated he has held that office for more than 9 years. He testified as to the authenticity of the minutes submitted as exhibits. These min utes dealt mainly with the Sever- ng of relations between the boat owners in the Coop and the Union, the resignations of boat owners as officials in the Union, and the fill ing of these offices with Union members. He held that the Union was in it's right to carry on bargain ing negotiations with Canneries. A verbal tussel occurred, which be- came quite heated, between him and Cohn when the latter voiced seemingly derogatory comments as to the minutes.
 Tiny" Cichoski's method of giv- ing testimony was also the subject of controversy in which Cohn at tempted to have it given in the usual question and answer manner. The Examiner rulel in favor of the witness. Cichoski's opening statement, "I believe in the inter- est of justice I should tell in my own words what has happened in the crab industry leading up to the present hearing. He then gave an account of it's early beginnings, the methods and gear used. He stated he was one of the organizers of the Coop. When the dispute arose with Wakefield Cnneries he stated he went to Port Wakefield to talk to Howard Wakefield as a personal friend, not as an official Friendly relations he had previ- only had, he said broke down at that meeting.
 The testimony of Ralph Jones, Production Manager for Wake fields, was the final witness call

and the much-heralded hormones,
cortisone and hydrocortisone.
However, these drugs are not
fully effective and the hormones,
in particular, sometimes create un-
pleasant side effects in some pa
tients and thus force their aban-
donment.
Recently, a new synthetic hor-
none called Sterane has been
placed in the hands of physicians.
Sterane appears to be far more
potent than cortisone or hydrocor-
tisone and offers promise of reduc-
ing the side effects noted with the
other hormones.
With advancing research and
rehabilitation, many arthritic pa
tients will be given a new lease on

Two witnesses in the towns of

Hearing on Case Incident
Ends But New General
Probe Shaping Up

WASHINGTON, R-John M.
Neff, lawyer for an oil company,
testified today he had made no
contributions in recent months to
any senator's personal campaign
funds" other than the $4,000 that
Sen. Francis Case Spurned.
On this testimony, the special
Senate committee created to in
quire into the Case incident closed
its public hearings.
However, new, broad inquiry
into all ''means and methods en-
ployed by interests outside the
Senate who pressed for the pass
age or defeat of the natural gas
bill apparently was shaping up.
To clear the way for it, Sen.
Hennings resigned from the Sen
ate elections subcommittee of
which he has been chairman. He
said he felt that the subcommittee
could not undertake the inquiry
while he remained on it since he
is a candidate for reelection.

The anniversary of Lincoln birthday Feb. Il, is
being observed today because it fell on Sunday. And
tomorrow is Feb. 10, St Valentines Day.
Abraham Lincoln saved the Union which Wash
ington had started its way Lincoln did not desire
war between the states, but when he saw IN 1861
that the of force might be the only way the Union
could be saved he ably maneuVered to unite the
country and he succeeded in getting his opponents to
fire the first shot at the flag Of the United States This
major strategic stroke, as was his Emancipation
Proclamation, freeing the Negroes Of the South (but
not in the NOrth).
Contrary to popular belief freeing the Negroes
not the purpose Of Lincoln nor the Republican
party, in 1860, at least in one-sroke move However,
when Lincoln announced the emancipation of the
slaves, he worldwide support for his cause.
Most Of the states of the Union now observe Lin
coins birthday a legal holiday and he is generally
rated with Washington, among American patriots
Another interesting sdelight on these three days.
is that according to ancient British beliefs the state
of the weather the 18TH 18th and 18th of February
forecast the kind of weather which would follow the
rest of the year The determination of the forecast
simple.
If these three days were stormy, then the weather
for that year would be generally fair If however, these
three days fair the weather would be generally
stormy
Weather forecasting has progressed quite a bit
since those days. although the results of the forecast
are about the The methods, however, are more
complicated, even if the accuracy is not.
If there were more self starters, the boss would
not have to be crank.
Ambition is nothing more than a tickling around
