It gives in- structions in such things as the care of the baby, a pre-school child, a school child and an aged person, and teaches enough first aid for home emergencies to be met with safety and efficiency. It also in- structs in how to take part in the promotion and protection of com- munity health and how to serve competently in emergencies and ep- idemics. .

Horthy Meet Near Front \Visit of Hunfian Regent, Premier Is Revealed- Conference Held BERLIN, Sept. 11. — Admiral Horthy, Regent of Hungary, and Hungarian Premier De Bardossy vis- ited Hitler’s field headquarters from Monday through yesterday, it was announced tonight. The Premier's visit to the front | presumably accounts for the sudden | interruption of international com- | munications with Budapest tonight, | | probably pending the Regent's safe | return. Hitler and Horthy were said to have held penetrating discussions of military and political questions con- icerning the two nations—comrades | at arms against Russia.

DOUGLAS NEWS COUNCIL AND SCHOOL BOARD IN JOINT SESSION Douglas School’s expense budget for the year July 1, 1941 to June 30, 1942, occasioned a joint meet- ing of the City Council and School Board last night. The budget as originally approved by the Council in June would have cost the city $5,000 in round figures. Subsequent reductions due to elimination of certain refundables by the Com- | missioner of Education had made | some revision in the city'’s plans| necessary. Supt. Pool gave the | Council a thorough explanation of various items in the budget and showed where a saving to the city over the first estimated cost would be in effect due to the Territory's setup. While there can be a re- duction in proposed expenditures to run the school there can be no| increase over the sum appropriated by the Council, he pointed out. e ————— CANNERYMAN ELLSON TO LEAVE FOR SOUTH Joe Ellson, bookkeeper for Doug-! las Island Packing Company, has booked passage for the south to leave Sunday for his home in Se- attle, Having completed the work of his office here he will join his father, L.

The belief that the United States and Britain some day may try to seize bases at strategic French Spanish and Portugese positions in West Africa was said to have brought the three European powers into a virtual alliance. It was stated that three-way taff talks, started months ago, bhave reached such a point that a joint staff has been set up at Melilla, Spanish Mor- occo. German-produced arms are re- ported to be flowing down the Cassblanca River in French Moroc- co to Villa Cisneros, Spain's Rio de Oro and the vital port of Da- kar in French Senegal. Such was the story brought by Europeans of credibility from persons who are i able to cite adequate, although un- publishable—sources. e WARNING IS GIVEN AUTOISTS Chief of Police, Fire Chief Make Statemeni-At- rests Are fo Follow Drivers of autos or trucks, nnd‘) boys and girls on bicycles are to| be arrested if they chase or speedi' ahead of the fire apparatus in an- swering an alarm. This'is the final word issued to- day by Chief of Police Ken Junge and Fire Chief V. W. Mulvihitl' and there is a mighty good reason. During recent runs of the fire apparatus some autoists ‘have speeded up, going like blazes to thel blaze. Others have attempted to follow and boys and even gitls, have hunched over their handle- bars of their bikes and pedalled like fury to “be there first.” The fire apparatus has had to trail and mn several cases been forced to stop some distance from the reported fire because of the congestion at the scene. Both chiefs are tired, complete- ly, of this situation and are get- ting righteously miffed. They are backed up by a city ordinance which in itself is a strict and force- ful one. The ordinance explicitly says, that it shall be unlawful for the operator of any vehicle, other than one on official business, to follow | [. . A Laughing Mafter . . WM. 5.

Accounting for more than half of the total Alaska pack, the Southeast Alaska pink pack to- taled 3,613,195 cases. Swelled by pink runs in other districts of | Alaska, the total pink pack in the Territory during summer fish-| ing was 4,620,779 cases. Total Alaska pack, by species, was as follows: 1122751 cases of | reds; 40,314 cases of kings; 4,629, | 7179 cases of pinks; 682,549 cases of chums; 257,260 cases of cohoes| —for a grand total of 6,732,653 cas- es of salmon in the entire Terri-| tory, compared to last year's total pack of 4,310,841 cases. Due entirely to the unexpected late run of the humpbacks, the Southeast Alaska pack was the heaviest turned in by canners in any of the three fishing sections of the Territory, The pack in this| area showed totals of 136487 cases of reds; 1,745 cases of kings; 3.-| 613,195 cases of pinks; 207,344 cases of chums; 147,642 cases of cohoes— for a total pack in the district of 4,196,413 cases, compared to 1,525- 787 cases last year. | In Central Alaska, the pack fig- ures showed 381,949 cases of reds; 35,571 cases of kings; 1,016,501 cases of pinks; 331,244 cases of chums; 107,854 cases of cohoes—for a total of 1,873,119 cases, compared to 2,- 273,672 cases a year ago.

W. C. Arnold, Ketchikan attorney, representing the canned salmon in- | dustry, asked the bureau not to open fall fishing for chums on the sched- uled October 1 date if there is in- sufficient rainfall. During drough periods when streams are low, many pinks have not gone to the spawning grounds at that date, he pointed out, and seiners catch too many pinks. He asked the service to forbid can- ning of pinks on the threat of clos- ing the fall season. Canners, fishermen and trap own- ers recommended that Alaskans play a larger role in determining regula- tions which must be adjusted by men on the ground to conform with | conditions as they develop. Alaskan advisory boards in various districts were recommended and also | the re-zoning of districts.
