PULP MEMORIAL WINS APPROVAL OF LEGISLATURE Protection Request for Al-‘ aska Industry Passes | Upper House [ & gress’ urg- ing a protective tariff against for- eign pulp products with the pur- pose of further development of the industry in Alaska. The memorial, introduced by Representative Joe Baronovich, points out the vast amount of timber available in Al- aska for pulp production and ex- plains how the industry can be made a great asset to the Territory and the nation Two other House measures met the approval of the Senate today. One would provide for re-establish- ing abandoned telegraph service in certain areas and the other appro- priates $15,000 for shelter cabins. | Clean Calendars | Both houses rushed their own; bills through today, cleaning up| the respective calendars on the 50th day, the last day under which| either house can consider its own measures. The remaining 10 days of the 60-day session will be taken up with bills that have passed one house. The mining tax, workmen’s compensation bill and appropria- tions measure constitute the major problems now before the Legisla- ture still unsettled. The appropria- tions bill has passed the House and now must win approval in the Senate. It probably will be de- cided in conference. The Senate late this afternoon was considering its own workmen’ compensation bill, the House hav- ing passed a measure dealing with! the same subject this morning. The mining tax also has passed the House and is another matter on S the-world ship, was undamaged except for a bent propeller blade.

THE CREDIT BUREAU This is an Educational Institution for +he people as well as a Credit Rating Bureau for Merchants, Pro- fessional Men and Bankers. It aims to teach the people not to abuse the best asset they have, “A good credit rating.” Hard-¢ There is no other thing that will show up a man’s true character so surely and correctly as the manner in which he takes care of his obligations. Credit is confidence in you to make an honest effort tc redeem your word of honor given at the time the bill is contracted. Don’t overlcok an opportunity to improve your credit record, for it follows you wherever you go and, if goed, gives you prestige in the community, but, if bad, it embarrasses you. An Honest Man will protect his Credit; a Dishonest Man has None to Protect. ALASKA CREDIT BUREAU CHARLES WAYNOR, Manager Valentine Bldg. Phone 28 CONTINUES 9 LEADER DEPT. STORE GEORGE'BROS.
