CAPITOL'S BILL With Jon Hall, Victor MecLaglen, | Olympe Bradna and Gene Lockhart heading a cast of thousands, Ed- ward Small's production of “South | of Pago Pago” will open tonight at! the Capitol Theatre. i “South of Pago Pago” tells the story of a band of seafaring adven- turers who set out to find a fabu-, Pago Pago. When the ship reaches! ‘Manoa, the natives of the island! turn out in jubilant welcome. By | {devious methods—including cheap | itrinkets, liquor and brute force— the ship’s master forces the natives | {to dive for pearls despite the fact! {that their leader has put a taboo on ths pearl beds. i The thundering climax when the ship’s crew resorts to guns and bombs to subdue the natives makes an exciting finale for the adven- iture-filled film as the natives with their shrewd cunning outwit the ipluncderers and drive them from their seas. Edward Small sent a production! crew on location to South Sea is- lands to film vital scenes for the picture. Over 2,000 natives were ired for the film; 300 outrigger canoes were employed; and a com- | plete native village was built on the scenes in the film. g —— FROM THE WESTWARD .

The statement was (made that no seals would be sent out unless ordered from Kiwanians. This is an error, says Dr. Harris, as his committee is contacting business houses alone, and Christmas seals will be mailed as usual to all per- sons not having previously donated through a business house. Mrs. Bess A.

In dis- cussing the needs of the Welfare Department, Maynard furnished information which will be incor- porated in a letter the Child Welfare Committee of the League plans to send to each member of the Territorial legislature Maynard briefly reviewed the development of the welfare pro- gram from its inception at the first meetings of the Territorial legisla- ture in 13 and 1915. He outlined the history of the Department of Puklic Welfare since 1937. Maynard reported that the Board of Public Welfare which met last week in Juneau recommends that the legislature make certain revis- jons in the welfare program in order to make it possible for the department to adequately meet the needs for public service and assis- tance. He re-emphasized the necessity for more funds to care lor the needy. He pointed out that rise in living costs require increas- ed appropriations in all programs of welfare work. Effective December 1, Maynard reported waiting lists in the Aid to Dependent Children will be dis- continued. This action was ord- ered by the Board after confer- ences with representatives of the Federal Security Agency. It was determined that the operation of the program was not in conform- ity with Federal requirements. Eliminating the waiting lists means that 100 additional children will be certified for aid. It also means that this increase in number of children receiving aid will decrease the monthly allowance per child frem $13.56 to about $9. In Alaska, where living costs are higher, de- pendent children receive a living allowance less than that paid in any of the 48 states. Increased funds for services for children and the need for addi- tional protective legislation were the points emphasized by Maynard. These and other facts touching on child welfare will be incorpor- ated In a letter which the child welfare committee of the League plans to send to each member of the. Territorial legislature. The next meeting of the League will be held at noon, November 10. All women interested are cor- dially invited to attend.
