The freight rate is too low to provide a fair return because of unscientific methods used in classifying commodities.

Al- vord, chairman of the Amer Citizenship committee of the % eral Federation of Women's Clubs. “The education of women for the discreet use of their vote has progressed far since the pass of the Nineteenth amendmen report s is preparing for the biennial convention of the federa tion in Texas in May. b “But there is still a lot to 1o L [and it can best be done through women's clubs throughout ) | country. Women must realize that even when there is not a clear- cut line of demarkation betwe two candidates for an office, s should still study the situation and the candidates’ qualifications before she lets pass the chance to register her choice.” Mrs. Alvord believes there extensive missionary work to le done by the organized women of the country among the unorgan- ized. Club women, she says, have an opportunity of gathering valu- able information on the’ political situation and are taught the im- mense importance of a wise use of their vote. These women should instill the same prineiplas in the non-members, not for the purpose of obtaining their mem- bership, but for the purpose gotting out the woman's vote.

The change w fective January 24, 1928, accord ing to advices received by Mar- tin Lynch. It is believed that the chang- will eliminate the interference and hetrodyning that formerly cc- curred when the station broadcasting at the old frequenc of 1310 kilocycles or 228.9 meter: There are several Pacific Coa-t | stations which broadcast at the |old wave length and many more close to that frequency. Ther are no stations close to 750 kilo es which will likely interfar with Alaska reception, i It is especially desired that teners in Alaska report the qu ;“y of reception at the new wave | length, Many different localitics reported formerly that a great deal of trouble was caused hy in terference from other stations at the old wave length, and it is d sired by the owners of KGBU refeive reports as to how th change of wave length has a‘ fected the situation. Letters ro- porting results should be addr: | ed to KGBU, Ketchikan, Alaska. is also 1 d out by the of the station that th. ing schedule is based on tandard Time, since Ke (thu upel.ms on that basis in & Servics schedulz of the sta anuary first has bean {as follows: | Daily, except |nesday, 11 a sewives and Sunday m. and Wed- to 1 p. m luncheon pro. | i 6 to 7:30 p. m., children's news, weather, marksts | pipe organ and musical programs. | Sunday only, 11 a. m., Christiar | | Science church services; 10 p. m to 12 M., the Sourdoughs, Thurs days only, 8:30 to 11:30 p. m High School, Music Hour, Tilli- cum Entertainers and Pipe Or- gan programs.
