It was | enacted largely to dispell the confusion arising from | section seven of the National Industrial Recovery Act. Disputes over the meaning and application of | this section began almost immediately after it enactment and subsequent interpretation by the by officials of the NRA and by the Na- Labor Board interpretations not always consistent—failed to clarify contentious points. To co-ordinate these views, the Administra- tion recommended the enactnient of the Wagner Bill | under which Secretary Perkins of the Labor Depart- ment is now striving to- settle- the steel strike and | tional [lhr Pacific longshoremen’s strike This measure defines as unfair “labor practic !

Brewer, with Horses and cattle would not be permitted to run at large in the streets of Juneau according to notice issued by Chief of Police W. H. McBride. He stated that any horses or cattle caught on the streets would be put in the city { the S. S. Mariposa; Alonzo | E. Morgan as passengers. Mr. ( Jr., assistant purser of the ngard, Alaska Agent for the U. Marioo Neil Hamilton, of the Bureau of Fisheries, had left purser's staff;;Claude Senger, cash- | by his employees of the right to form or join labor here in the Chichagof at 1 o'clock ier on the Marisopa; and James JUDGE HELLENTHAL. ‘The appointment of S. Hellenthal, for 25 years a leader of the bar in this city, to be Federal Judge of the Third Division is a fitting reward to him for his loyal and efficient service to the Demo- cratic Party in Alaska and a timely recognition of his long-established standing in the legal px'o!eismn.1 He was the candidate of the First Division for the Judgeship in the First Division. Political exigencies made that impossible. It is gratifying to his political associates and his friends that his merits have not gone unnoticed and unrewarded When Judge Hellenthal removes to Valdez -to assume his duties, the Juneau bar will lose one of its most outstanding figures. More than that, the community will surrender one of its finest residents. In addition to his professional work, Mr. Hellenthal has taken an active and influential part in civic affairs. He has rendered service of the highest type to Juneau during all the years of his residence here. He has been a hard-working member of the Chamber of Commerce, serving diligently on various | committees. It is equally gratifying that he is a real Alaskan This is his home. His interests are all confined t the Territory. And while Juneau will be the loser in the appointment, the Territory will be the gainer. His long residence in Alaska, his intimate knowledge of Territorial conditions and his thorough knowledge of Alaskan laws added to his trained mind and sound understanding of fundamental law fit him pre-eminently for the position which he is called upon to fill. KETCHIKAN TO GET PUBLIC BUILDING. | Included in an omnibus public buildings bill 'from engaging ‘listen to demands. |out by it was coercion. |workers to join in a company union, (from joining any other kind. organizations and _to designate representatives of their own choosing; (2) any attempt by an employer to dominaté a labor union and any contribution of financial support to it; (3) any discrimination on the employer's part intended to discourage or en- courage membership in any labor organization—with the proviso that an agreement may be made for a closed shop if both the employer and a majority of his employees desire it. The Act creates a new National Industrial Ad- justment Board empowered to prevent employers in these “unfair pracices” when they lead or threaten to lead to labor disputes. The board is also empowered to function as an arbitrator in other matters than these specific “unfair prac- tices” but in such cases only when its services are desired by both parties. Nothing in the Act gives the board power to fix wages, to regulate rates of pay or to limit hours of work. The measure is evidently not a cure-all. It should, however, end that class of strikes which |grow out of discrimination between employer and employee with reference to the right to organize. Just how the Act will work remains to be seen. If Secretary Perkins, named by the President as the representative of the Government, averts the steel workers' strike, and restores peace in the long- shoremen’s strike on the Pacific Coast, both industry and labor must agree that the new system is fitted to conditions that exist throughout the country. Labor Board. (New York Times.) Unless we want to kill the President with over- work, some way must be found to settle large-scale strikes without taking them to the White House. The threatened strike in the automobile industry was averted by setting up a three-man board. It was to pass upon charges of discrimination and When Mr. Roosevelt approved he spoke of it as a hopeful step relations.

Returned Tmmediately ‘The Chichagof left here to re- turn to Ketchikan immediately after its arrival here last evening and today is busy in the southern end of the panhandle. It will make another trip to Juneau from Ket- chikan with passengers tomorrow morning. On the return trip last evening Stanley Adams, of - the Heckman - Carrington Company of Ketchikan, was a passenger for that place. Previous to the Ketchikan trip, yesterday afternoon, the ChicHagof, Pilot Ellis, Mechanic Brewer, made | a trip to Hawk Inlet, taking Hans Floe to that place and had two round trip passengers who returned to Juneau on the plane, ' Eigel Buschmann and Bill Newcombe. Wednesday's Trips On Wednesday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock, the Chichagof arrived in Juneau from Ketchikan with Stan- ley Adams and left immediately for Excursion Inlet with E. Parker and Edgar Stormer of the Astoria and Puget Sound Cannery at that place, and John McCormick, Deputy U. 8. Marshal, for the Pacific Am- erican cannery. Deputy McCormick picked up a prisoner there to bring into Juneau. On the way into Juneau the seaplane stopped at Funter Bay and took W. S. Peko- vich from there to Hawk Inlet. Hans Floe boarded the plane at Hawk Inlet and returned to Ju- neau arriving here at 8:30 o'clock | in the evening. PR. CHARLOTTE IS SOUTHBOUND Canadian steamer Princess Char- lotte arrived in port at 6 o'clock Fianagan, formerly junior officer on the President Jefferson. One of the most important mem- bers of the crew is the striped mascot cat accumulated in Port Angeles, and named “Angie” after | that port Went Off-Shcre From San Francisco, the small !craft went off-shore 400 miles, first putting in at Cape Flattery, some | rough weather being experienced there. Other stops have been made at Port Angeles, Victoria, Orcas sland, Vancouver, and up the coast anchonnfl at various bays and! 'inlets before reaching Alert Bay. From Ketchikan the Nomad went to Thorne Bay, out Snow Passage to Shakan, Port Alexander, Sitka, Kalinin Bay, Dixon Harbor, Cross Sound and up to the Brady Glacier. | Few Days Here Present plans are to remain in| Juneau for a few days, and sail south from here. Leave from their ship requires that they be in San Francisco by August 5. Capt. Ferris bought the Nomad in the Fiji Islands last year and sailed her toSan Francisco through the South Sea Islands and across the Pacific. The trip required six months, and the crew of three aboard at that time were out of sight of land at one time for 34 days. Under Sail The Nomad has been under sail| almost all of the time since leaving | San Francisco, and often in spite | lof the fact that she is equipped | with a 16-horsepower auxiliary en- gine, the party would anchor rath- er than listen to the engine when the wind died down. Weather in the main has been good, according to the members of the party, and Capt. Ferris said this morning that the kind of a Jife he would like to have is to) gown an Alaskan island and have airplane that he could get | Sampson for the Westward.

Government agencies there | occupy for the most part rented quarters and are) widely scattered throughout the city. The court! house, condemned for many years past by every Federal Grand Jury meeting there and recognized as being inadequate, unsafe and poorly suited for its purposes, is a disgrace to the Federal Government as well as an eyesore to the residents of Ketchikan. Thus from every viewpoint the construction of the proposed building is highly justifiable. Inasmuch as the expenditure of public funds for building construction is one of the major planks in President Roosevelt's Recovery Program, the fact that the building is so badly needed together with the undoubtedly serious unemployment situation which will confront Ketchikan again next winter ;Jection was In the case of the theatened steel strike, Gen- eral Johnson has made the same proposal that was jaccepted in the automobile industry. The offer was of a three-man board representing the employees, the companies and the public. But this plan was flatly rejected “yesterday by the President of the Amalgamated Association at Pittsburgh. His o0b- that it would be impossible to find impartial mediators. That looks too much like jumping to a desired conclusion, and may not find support by the workers when they meet in convention next Thursday. But some way out, short of a trial by strength accompanied by violence, must ultimately be found. The amount of work already placed upon the President is what his rela- tive and predecessor Theodore Roosevelt once called “infamous,” and sane people could not think of adding to it by throwing every great or threatening should be sufficient to induce Secretary Morgenthau |strike upon his shoulders.

Jackson for Petersburg; and Joe Nadeau for Wrangell. e CANNERY TENDER HERE The cannery tender O. M. Ar- nold, Capt. Dewey Stack, owned by the New England Fish Com- pany, came in from the cannery at Chatham today, arriving at 8 o'clock this morning. The boat is expected to leave sometime this evening, after loading 450 cooler racks which arrived on the Aleutian, and a quantity of lum- ber from the AFTER CARGO SUPPLIES| Alex Holden, pilot of the Al- ka Southern seaplane Kruzof, based at Cordova, returned to that place from a trip to False Pass last evening with Walter E. Rooney, Supervisor of Service for the American Can Company, who took the flight for the purpose of making a survey of the can- neries to the westward. Mr. Roon- ey left Juneau by steamer two weeks ago. .- BODY OF JOHN STAMBUCK TAKEN SOUTH FOR BURIAL ABOARD STEAMER ALEUTIAN The body of John Stambuck, who passed away following a ma- jor operation at Unalaska several weeks ago, was sent south aboard the steamer Aleutian, which pass- ed through here last night.
