IMPROVING Jane Alexander Returns from Welfare Tour of District A seasonal improvement in South- east Alaska business and employ- ment conditions is noticeable in the coastal cities south of Juneau, Jane Alexander, Secretary to the Direc- tor of the Department of Public Welfare, said today on her return from a two-week trip to Petersburg Wrangell, Ketchikan, Klawock, Hyd- aburg and Craig. Miss Alexander conferred with Agents of the Department in each of the cities. Next week she is go- ing to Sitka on a similar mission. ‘WPA and CCC projects are prov ing a wonderful help in reducing the relief load in Southeast Alaska, Miss Alexander found.

Blan- in 1938. Senator Schwellenbach of Wash- ington introduced a bill seeking to embargo export of scrap. He says ‘West Coast docks are piled with the stuff waiting shipment to Japan. But gwhen the Senate committee looked into the business it found a hive of trouble. Big steel com- panies were eager for an embargo. Foteign competition for scrap steel had forced the price up to $20 a ton, within a dollar of the price of fresh pig iron. Opposition came from a thousand junk men--and the State Department. The junk men did not want to be deprived of such a rich market. Never had profits been so good. The State Department was wary of taking such an open handed crack at Japan. It didn't seem to be the diplomatic thing to do. Incidentally, the Army and Navy allow none of their own scrap, which is considerable, to be exported. They are not going to be accused of sell- ing metal to a potential enemy to be shot back at them in some future war. e ———— SWIFT MAN HERE G. D.
