Yet that's exactly what happen- ed the other day at no less an oc- casion than an official swearlng-in. Justice Black got the assignment of administering the oath to Fed« eral Trade Commissioner John Car- sen. As the ceremony reached its climax, FTC Chairman Lowell Ma- son announced solemnly: ‘“Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr. Carson will now take the oath, administered by Mr. Justice Jackson.” The assembled dignitaries howl- ed at the mistake. Chairman Ma- son turned a sunset crimson. Later, ex-Senator Jim Mead was appeinted to- another vacancy in Federal , Trade Cemmission. Mason got on the phone to arrange the ceremony, invited Justice Jackson to give the oath. Jackson agreed, then added: “By the way, this will give you a chance to call me Mr. Justice Black.” AYR-COLLISION LAWSUITS A $250,000 suit has been filed by | the widow of an afr-crash victim He has | 'rick, the Hitler agent who came to New York in 1940 after the war started: “I don't believe he has| done anything wrong.

CAPITAL NEWS CAPSULES McGrath on personal rights—At- torney General Howard McGrath has laid down the law to Justice Department subordinates on Civil Liberties. He wants no one’s con- stitutional toes stepped on in the fight against crime. McGrath will wage war on crime, but has made it clear that he would rather let a crime go unpunished than violate constitutional rights. “Individual freedom,” he says, “is the back- bone of democracy.” Super A-bomb—Russian and Am- erican scientists are now racing desperately to develop a super- super atomic bomb. This dire news was broken by Senator Brien Mc- Mahon, chairman of the Senate- House Atomic Energy Committee. “The question,” he said gravely, “now is who will get the super bombr first. If Russia gets it first, we will have to sign on the dotted line. If we get its first, Russia will have to sign on the dotted" line.” THESE DAYS e B Qi - GEORGE E.

L. Redlingshafer by the Seattle Area Council and approved by the local district committee. “Mr. Red,” as he was affectionately known to boys and men, had been the back-, bone of scouting in Juneau for more than seven years. Through his efforts and the cooperation of the loeal Scout committee, the organization had been built up to three troops with a total of 68 registered Scouts. | In Seattle, Enoch W. Bagshaw, héad football coach of the University of Washington, resigned his position, thus ending an internal warfare that had raged for a year. Alumni and students had beén aligned against the coach who was serving his ninth year. Henry Messerschmidt answered the callenge of the Brunswick Bowl- ing Alley five, promised “an unbeatable team of Elks” for a Sunday match. Mrs. G. W. Morgan, wife of Captain Morgan, Inspector of Hulls in the U. S. Steamboat Inspectors’ Office, arrived to spend the winter. Mrs. Morgan was not a cheechako by any means, as she had resided in both Cordova and Ketchikan. To develon Boy Scout facilities in this area, Fred E. Baker, Field Execttive of the Seattle Area Couneil, arrived to spend a week working with local officials. He and Mrs. Baker arrived on the steamer Queen. John Martin of Douglas was leaving on the Northwestern for Seattle, to attend business college. The Rev[ C. C. Saunders of Yurha, Colo. was assigned to the pas- torate of the Northern Light Presbyterian Church. He was expected to artive, with Mrs. Saunders, about ‘November ‘{M Since the departure in April of Dr. O. A. Stillman, that church had not had a fulltime pastor. The Rev. Henry Young of the Metropolitan M. E. Church here had been conducting morning services in the Presbyterfan Church, and evening services in his own. The Alaska Game Commission meeting here had recefved protests against continued protection of brown and grizzly bears. Among them was a petition from the Juneau Woman’s Club, presented by Mrs. Helen Boylan and Mrs. D. Florine Housel.

The Veterans Administration ex- plained today for the first time the| system under which checks will be mailed to veterans holding Na- tional Life Insurance payments are to begin in January. Under the procedure, VA said, a veteran whose serial number ends in 000—35,496,000 for example—will be included in the first mailing of checks. On the other hand, a veteran with a serial number such as 100,900 will be among the last to receive his check. The VA said this method of pay- ment was decided upon after care- lul consideration, and deseribed it as the most non-discriminatory that could be devised. The full serial number has; nothing to do with the order of payment—merely the iast three digits. About 16,000,000 veterans are eli- jitle to receive the payments.
