NATIONAL REPR Fourth Avenue Blds THE B ASEBALL SITUATION Thanks to the good oldtime spirit in Juneau, the baseball situation is clearing and the Juneau Baseball League is going right ahead, preparing to meet all- comers and incidentally arranging to complete the second half of the season's schedule. A playing bunch is to arrange for games on the Fourth, v rs if necessary, and incidentally the league must not forget the California College All-Star baseball club is to be here July 17 fo 19. This much can be said of the players of the Juneau Baseball League—they are in the game for the pleasure they get out of it and have been showing a sporting interest that cannot be beaten. It is to be regretted the fans do not turn out, the games have been good and should merit better patronage. Players, like those on the stage, do not like to play to empty houses, so let us all get together again and boost our local league. BUNNELL'S DAY FRIDAY On Friday, July 1, the Territory of Alaska will mark the retirement of Or.

In his decision, Judge Folta exploded the reason- {ing of Attorney General Ralph Rivers who surprised 10 one last January with an opinion that the session was legal. Rivers argued that the terms. of the | legislators began when the canvassing board attested i their election. The court cited the provisions covering the terms of Alaska legislators in the 1912 organic act. Under the act, he ruled, the terms of new legislators do not begin until they are seated. He found that members of the 1947 Legislature still held office and should have been called for the January special session. The court’s arguments are identical with those of Sens. E. B. Collins of Fairbanks and Charles Jones of Nome who attacked the validity ‘of the iession ‘rom the day it was convened and were roundly denounced by the usual cabal for their efforts. This is a point worthy of recollection by Alaska taxpayers and voters the next time the integrity of their representatives is called into question by the Juneau administration. It is patent that excesses of government are,im- possible without lawmakers subservient to the executive branch. The call of the newly-elected lawmaker: rather than the old, last December, obviously packed the legislative halls with representatives who could be depended upon to do the administration’s bidding. This has now been exposed in the Federal court ecision as a breach of confidence and a waste of public funds in keeping with other recent events in the Territorial capital. n by ! ) Gerhart (The Eel) Eisler, once out of the U.

FARRINGTON Sets Up Spe_ca Machinery| for Situation in Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico WASHINGTON, June 29. —®— Delegate Farrington ' (R-Hawaii) ntroduced a bill today to set' uvo special machinery for ' handling trikes or lockouts' threatening the aealth, safety or weifafe of Hawaii Alaska and Puerto Rico. In connection with the bill Far- rington told the House the current‘ shipping tieup has left the situation || n Hawaii “little short of desper- ate.” The bill would empower the President to name a board of in- quiry to make a written report to :he Federal Mediation Service and the President. The President could then call upon the Attorney Gen- aral to sue in TFederal District Court for an injunclion against the strike, while the disputing parties continued to negotiate with the| aid of a federal mediator. Neitiier party to the strike would se o:ligated to accept the recom- mendation of the mediator, but at the end of 60 days the original { i i soard of inquiry would report agaimy on the status of the dispute. If the dispute were not settled in another 15 days, the National Labor Relations Board would hold an election of the employees on the employers’ last offer. When the election result was certified, the Attorney General would move to vacate the court in-| junction and the President would report to Congress with recommen- dations for action. The bill was referrea to the House Labor Committee. SCHWINN BIKEN ay MAGSTNS | GEORGE EROS.
