E. Feero to proceed there. The United States Coast Guard Cut- ter Tallapoosa will transport the officers to the village. It sails from port at 7 p. m. today direct for Yakutat, arriving there Sunday evening. It is ex- pected to return early next week. The alleged trouble is said to be the outgrowth of a strike begun by local fishermen at Yakutat some two weeks ago, who rejected the 10-cent price set by Libby Mc- Neill & Libby for red salmon. It was still in progress when D. W. Branch, Nonthwest Manager for the Company left there last sun- ! day, although he had hope that | his efforts would result ina prompt | | settlement. The company fisher- men refused to join in the strike. The first word that violence was imminent was received here| [today by him in a telegram from | company representatives on the ground. It said the strikers were | preparing to use force to drive the company’s employees from the fish- | ing grounds and asked for some‘ protection. He conferred With) Marshal White, requesting that of- ficers be sent at once, and with Gov. Troy regarding the situation generally. So far as is known no actual violence has urred.

Daly, owner and manager of the Ketchi- the past three weeks cruising be-| tween here and Ketchikan, looking over several tracks of timber for| future supplies. He and Chet Neill arrived here company’s gasboats. They prob- ably will remain another week. Mr. Daly reported the sale of some 250,000 box shooks to the salmon packers this year, but due to Puget Sound competition prices were below normal. Mills in that district early this year were glad to get business at almost any price. Improvements in Washington mar- ket conditions recently, however, have been reported and price con- ditions are admittedly better, he said. With the advent of the salmon| fishing and canning season, Ket- chikan business conditions are bet- | ter than for several months, andl the unemployment situation has eased somewhat, Mr. Daly said.| there is still considerable| unemployment and the need for| lopening up a public works relief| program is great. ——————— Daily Empfle Want Ads sz o { John Harrington and Ed Westby ! from Petersburg and L.| J.

AND AN APOLOGY In some. quarters, the fact that we have obtained permission from the Fed- eral and Territorial governments to dispense the famous 3.2 beer, either in open bottles, glasses, mugs, steins, or whatnot; and to sell to the family trade either by the case or bottle for consumption in the home, there are a 'few people who be- lieve we have decided to revamp Juneau’s most popular gathering place into a BEER PARLOR. This is, decidedly, not the case; there are many, many, of our customers, who demand a quiet, refined place where they may be sure that they can enjoy a glass of the creamier brew along with our delicious sandwiches and salads and it is to satisfy the demand of these customers that we have decided to serve beer in our establishment. To those who desire beer for hom= use, we offer all of the popular brands by the botile or case. For this service our charge is at the rate of 20 cents per bottle or $4.50 per case, delivered if you wish. Our sandwich and Dutch Lunch ‘“send out” service ig unexcelled and will have our very personal supervision. Our }eizvice is procurable daily, ‘including Sunday, until midnight, fi:aking it possible ta meet most any reasonable demand of the public. WE THANK YOU!
