Most prominent victim was said by the Peiping radio station to have been Gen. Yang hu-Cheng. Yang was pacification commissioner of Shensi Province in 1936 'when he helped “young Marshall” Chiang hsueh-Liang, nephew of‘ Chiang kai-Shek . and persuaded him to form a united front with the Com- munits to fight the Japanese. Yang and Chang detained the Cuneralisimo on Dec. 13, that year at a Villa near Sainfu. CRPAIS TOPAY DIVIDEND; BEL 1§ RE-ELECTED ASTORIA, Ore., Dec. 15—#—The Columbia River Packers Associa- tion Inc., will pay a 50 cent stock dividend Jan. 10, despite the fact that the year may end in a loss. Nick Bez, Seattle, chairman of the toard, told the annual corpora- tion meeting that this year appeared idkely to show a loss. He blamed “the poor pack in Bristol Bay, Alaska, and the downward adjust- ment in selling prices which occur- red in the entire fishing industry during 1949 for the first time since the war.” He pointed out, however, that canned fish, to be held over into 1950, will show a profit when it is sold. Bez was reelected chairman for 150. CHAMBER SEES HAWAIIAN MOVIE AT MEETING TODAY “Wings to Hawaii,” a movie pro- duced by Pan American Airways, was well received by members of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce attending their last Chamter meet- ng of 1949 at noon today in the Gold Room of the Baranof Hotel. The colorful motion picture took Chamber members on a tour of the islands. Chamber . President Fred Eas- taugh announced that no meeting would be held until - the newly- elected board takes over at the first meeting of 1950 on January 5. He also announced that the Alaska Steamship Company had donated $50 to be used as prize- money in the Juneau Merchants’ Christmas decorations contest. Rules for both the Merchants’ contest and the outside home lighted decorations contest will be announced Monday. Dr. Joseph O. Rude suggested from the floor that sledding on Gold Street above Sixth Street hould be prohibited. He said a bad spot at Sixth and Gold streets makes sledding from above there dangerous.
