The Associated Press is exclusively entitled to the npe for republication of all news # or not otherwise credited in this paper eal news published herein ispatches credited to and also the ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION THE REGIONAL LABOR BOARD | RUL A trail of rumors as to the procedure involved in bringing into effect whatever findings come from the recent hearings here of the Regional Labor Board have followed the conclusion of the hearings. In the interests of clarifying the situation the fol- lowing procedure is submitted. The first step in the process occurred Saturday when Charles W. Hope, Regional Director, made his recommendations which will be sent to the National Labor Board in Washington, D. C., along with the record of the hearing held in Juneau and briefs sub- mitted by both the government and the attorney for ! the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company. It Is important to note as reported in the exclusive | and correct Associated Press news dispatch Sal.urdnyi in The Empire announcing the findings of Reglonnlk Director, Charles W. Hope, that Mr. Hope made RECOMMENDATIONS to the National Board, rather | than DECISIONS as reported two days later in an- | other paper here yesterday. This later and obviously incorrect and misleading story also stated that the | Regional Director had ordered the one hundred | and thirty-nine employees allegedly dismissed during | the strike reinstated, and those®taking their places discharged. Such action is not in the power of the Regional Board, and as before stated, the entire find- | ings go to the National Board merely with REC- OMMENDATIONS and no immediate action is man- | datory under the law; this is further authenticated by the fact that the Alaska Juneau management here has received no word from the Regional Board. Fur- ther, should the National Board rule to the dissatis- faction of effiér party thé casé will’then go to the Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco, where | because of the lengthy testimony offered, it will un- doubtedly remain for a considerable period Should this court’s ruling also be unsatistactory, then the case would go to the Supreme Court of the United States | If this routine should prove necessary, several at- torneys, basing their opinions on the time normally taken for cases to pass through the Court of Appeals and through the Supreme Court estimate that at least a year and one-half will have elapsed. Consequently, judging from these estimates of time, if the case pursues its normal course it would not effect the operation here in any way for con- siderably more than a year, and as the above shows, | White House. higher wages and increased farm incomes which would mean “more goods would be produced, more and bet- ter food eaten, fewer would be unemployed and there would be lower taxes.” This he declared not only to| e be his firm conviction but his political philosophy. | he stated it cannot be accomplished in but “we are on the way, very definite- Frankly, month or a y ly on the wa There in a few simple, honest words that any one can understand is the Roosevelt program; the same | program he advocated when he ran for office four years ago and the same program he put into effect when he became President; the same one he now, in the face of bitter opposition, is urging be continued for the benefit of the whole people. At no time since he took office, nor before for that matter, has the man now in the White House deviated from that course for the common good. From the minute he was inaugurated, he took the helm boldly and steered the ship of state calmly and safely along the course he had outlined and away from the rocks of chaos. Now after four years of as a difficult a voyage as any man in public office ever encountered, he is still on the course, and, witht the tempest abated, is able to report honestly and without fear, “we are on the way.” No one can sincerely deny it. We are on the way.

These and numerous other safety regulations are commendable.

They are forgetting that per- sonnel is lllP key to safety at sea. in numerous others, the tirst difficulty was not the construction of the vessels, but the conduct of the crew, and particularly of Che offi- cers. A ship is no safer than its personnel. One of the great difficulties in the American mer- chant marine has been the f~ilure to develop seamen and lesser officers in recent decades who are prepared to shoulder responsibility and do their work efficiently, in emergency as well as in ordinary times. Underpaid sailors who sign on merely because they cannot find better jobs ashore are a greater danger than the lack of automatic sprinklers in every stateroom.
