The cards will then be turned over to a clerical staff for schedule arrangement. Duplicates will be el- iminated and the exact schedule of appointment will be made out. Each individual will be assigned the time desired for his X-ray, whether it te morning, afternoon or evening The appaintment cards will then be returned to the individual where they were made out.

Volunteer workers will assist as re- ceptionists, and for general clerical work in keeping the records. The Gastineau Channel Health Council is asking for eight volunteer work- ers from each Juneau service organi- zation. Mrs, Burrass Smith, repre- sgentative to the Council from the Martha Society, is chairman of the Volunteer Workers Committee and will assign the various tasks to those volunteers best fitted for the work Anyone who is interested in assist- ing in- this phase of the survey may contact Mrs. Smith The two-ton portable X-ray to be used in the survey is one of the most up-to-date available and is capable of handlihg more than one person per minute. The entire procedure of the X-ray will take only a few mom- ent's time. Disrobing will not be necessary. It is hoped that housewives and pre-school children will be able to attend the morning or afternoon clinics, leaving the evening clinics open to workers who are not free during the day. Sciicol children will be taken to the clinic by classes. Organizations may make arrange- ments to attend the clinics in a body, shoula such procedure be desirable. All information involved in the program will be kept confidential, it was emphasized by Miss Jund. The results of the X-rays will be mailed to each individual and those show- ing indications of tuberculosis will be advised so that further studies can be made. Bt i iy MRS. ROBERT (OWLING LOSES WHITE CANARY Mrs. Robert Cowling reports her white canary is missing and anyone knowing the whereabouts of the feathered creature please call her at her home, Red 410.

Rivers, Territorial Attorney General, over the de- claration of party afiilfation in the Territorial primary elections under the new blanket primary election aws Judge George W. Folta ruled that the present action, no matter what decision was made, would not be binding on the Clerks of the Courts in the Territory’s four Judicial Di- visions becau they have no au- thority to interpret the law. Their authority, he said, is [limited to the distribution of supplies in elections. He directed both counsels to present further briefs to prove that such a decision would be ef- fective and binding White, counsel for the Party, pointed is done to the by insisting that they de- clare their party affiliation. He stated that the section of the old election law under question, was not .amended by the Territorial Legislature when it wrote the blanket primary statute although other portions were altered. White led that it is up the Legislature to change the law if it so desires. stated that the blanket primary law establishes an elim- ination ~election and does away with the party primaries. He used the State of Washington primary election law as an example, He argued that it was the intention of the Legislature and the people to set up a similar statute Spectators at the hearing includ- ed the Governor, Secretary of Alaska Lew M. Williams and many other interested persons. > general Republican cut that no harm Rivers ® 0 0 0 0 v 00 e v e . WEATHER REPORT (U. .

But when he has served one term or more, you must judge him by his record. That is to say, opinions for him are | worth nothing unless coupled with | the record. | On that basis, I invite an exami- nation of the record I made in the 1925 and 1927 legislatures. The improvements in the Workmen's | Compensation Act on my motion {are numerous and notable. Our failures were due to our minority position. In that session, I | made it easy for you to appeal | from commissioner’s courts, which {is a greater blessing than many of ou think. While we made progress, when you remember that the issues of (1921 are still unsolved in spite of | the overwheiming control which the Democrats had for fourteen | years, your conclusion must be— | the leadership must have been in- adequate. It is not enough for your legislators to be “progres- ive,” they must also have the know-how.” When you send men | who cannot write their own bills L or memorials, what can you ex- | pect? | | Who wrote the “Hope” Memorial | that caused Sec. Krug to introduce 18:30 o'clock, Thelma Engstrom, in!the fifteen year trap lease bill? iwhy did the Democrats decline to | propose fish trap regulations as !requ(‘slcd by Sec. Krug? Why are | some labor unions against the Krug | trap bill and also favor Governor Gruening who is supporting it? WILLIAM L. PAUL, Sr. { Candidate for nomination on the Republican ticket..
