City Will Seek To Acquire Water System From Private Ownership

The City will seek to acquire the Sears water works on Mission Road, following action by the City Council Thursday night.
 Councilman Worth broached the subject, stating he thought it good idea. Objection was raised that the condition of the pipes was such that if the City water pressure was put on the lines, they would burst. It was felt, however, this could be overcome by install ling a reducing valve or by other means to relieve the pressure.
 The Council is seeking to elirni- nate private water lines, and even- tually incorporating all of them ito the City's system. Vi
 The City Manager will negotiate for the purchase of the system, which IS said to service apprOxi- mately 37 homes.
 Other action taken by the Coun- cil was to authorize paving a strip between the Belmont and the Post Office on the south side at the intersection which would be used as sidewalk Also 10 foot strip at the approach of the Base Road from Brooklyn Avenue. ..

Along The
 Waterfront

This column could easily get out of hand this week. The writer just completed trip around the is land aboard the EXPANSION saw many people, many boats and lots of waterfront
 Though we are carrying story about the trip elsewhere. in the paper, we'd like to mention a few of the fellows we met along the way, and give a few observations of conditions as we saw them.
 We talked with Bill Ignation at Old Harbpr, who has been Chief of the village. Herman Andrew witch, we understand, is to be the new Chief. Some of the boys are going to do a little fall fishing, but not to any great extent Some fish .are showing.
 We watched the men at Kar- 1uk make a couple of beach sets The first haul yielded Al, be- lieve, and the second 30. Quite a contrast to the good old days We want to say a word for the men with boats and the young fel+ lows with skiffs they were very nice about running passengers from the EXPANSION to the vii lage, showing us around. They are pretty anxious about the new bridge, hoping it will be constrtic- ted this fall.
 It was sad sight to see the cannery at Larsens Bay idle, and all those boats high and dry, where they have remained for some time.
 At San Juan the same way We stopped there just briefly. At Port Bailey we m e t Rudy Lorensen- caretaker there. He and his wife and few others live there.
 The EXPANSION had to lay out of Afognak due to tricky wat CTS there. The ship radiOed in and it wasn't long before Mike Mul- lens and another fellow meeOut, picked up the mail and quite a load of freight.
 At Uzinki, we talked to MI iand Mrs. Ferry. Mrs. Ferry is the Post master there. The cannery exuectS to can crab this fall
 On the home front, it is uneer- tain just how much activity there will be here. The crab fishing sit uation is by no means settled In fact it is rather complicated, with no solution in sight

 No crab canning at King Crab Inc, but there is bit of salmon canning going on. King Crab, Inc are the only firm canning salmon They have fish in from Port Hei- den, Chignik, and points around the island. But so far its only one shift deal. The KASILOFF, SHUG AK, and AFOGNAK are serving as tenders.

Mr. sears, as attorney for
Mr.. Quldfine during the July
hearings, said he had advised
his client not 70 answer the
questions on grounds that they
were not pertinent to the pur-
pose fof which the committee
was authorized by Congress.

However, this case has been

tions whether they are PERU

The hearing has reached its
final stage with Washington at
torney Edward Bennett VII
lianis suggesting to Judge
James w. Morris that, II the
charges are dropped, Mr.. Gold
fine could be called back be-
fore the committee.
Mr.. Williams contended Mr..
Goldfine's constitutional rights
were violated through investi-
gative methods used by the
chief investigator of q House
subcommittee that questioned
Mr.. Goldfine last July about his
relationship with former Presi-
Dental Assistant Sherman
Adams.
The contmept charges grew
out Of the refusal of Mr.. Gold
fine to answer is questions put
to him by the House Legisla-
tive Oversight Subcommittee
during last years hearings here.
During the hearings, Baron
Shacklette,i chief investigator
for the subcommittee, was
caught with Washington news
man Jack Anderson as they
attempted to bug" the Shera-
tom Carlton Hotel room OF one
of the .Goldfine staff.
Mr.. Shacklette has testified
in the District Court hearing
here in the last few weeks that
he also used a tape-recorder
to eavesdrop on conversations
in the Goldfine suite on an
other floor of the hotel during
the week of June 20, 1858.
During this same period, Miss
Mildred Paperman, secretary to
the Boston industrialist, report
ed to District police that some
of her employers documents
were taken from her room in

dropped when a grand jury
failed to indict him.
Today Mr.. Williams charged
there was a "conSpiratorial re-
lationship" to gain access to
these documents and photo
graph them.
In the testimony that has
been given to Judge Morris,
Mr.. Shacklette, Mr.. Walters
and Mr.. Anderson have denied
they took any papers from Miss
Papermanls room.
Harris Testimony Differs
But Representative Oren

day that Mr.. Shacklette had
once told him he could gain
access to Miss Paperman's room
and photograph some of the
Goldfine documents.
