PAGE SIX THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA MONDAY, APRIL 10, 1950 DEPT. OF LABOR EMPLOYEE GUEST SPEAKER AT LIONS Eugene W. Norton, new man in Alaska for the U.S. Department of Labor, representing the Bureau of Apprenticeship, was the guest speaker at the Lions Club this noon at its regular Monday noon lunch- eon in the Gold Room at the Bara- nof. Norton, who is moving to the Ter- ritory from Sacramento, called upon all service clubs of the Territory to aid in the forthcoming apprentice- | ship program to develop in Alaska | the expert technical skills needed | in various businesses and endeavors. | Other guests were E. C. Koenig, | Jr., of Haines; Milton Ward, Fair- banks; Leonard Evans, Juneau; Brook C. Yden, Seattle and Rob- | ert C. Nelson, Juneau. Following regular committee re-" ports a discussion was held concern- | ing building of a new community | center for Juneau. Lion Dr. Rude and others expressed the opinion that the new addition to the school building was of greater importance than a community center at this| time and in view of other projects for which funds are being raised at the time, construction of a com- munity center should not be pushed | at this time. Lion Harry Sperling agreed with Lion Rude'’s remarks, but suggested that the club not forget the com- munity center idea entirely. “It is a long-range program,” Sperling ; said, “and it will not cost us any- thing to plan for it for perhaps in the next five or ten years. If and when it becomes a feasible reality, let the Lions Club be in on the! ground floor.” | Lion Rude explained that con- struction of theé mnew school and auditorium would be begun next summer, a year from now, and could serve as a center for the youngsters at the time being. Lion Joe Shofner announced that next week’s Lions Club meeting would be a joint affair with the Business and Professional Women's | club and the program would con- sist of a motion picture on the| making of aluminum. | Lion Secretary Walter Soboleff said not too many youngsters have | signed up for the Marble Tourney, scheduled for April 15 and 22, but expected there would be more when entry blanks were distributed at the schools. All youngsters are invited to participate. As Mt. Edgecumbe has not ac- cepted the Lions challenge to a bas-| ketball game, Lion Howard Andre- son suggested it be changed to a baseball game. He was appointed by President Val Poor to contact Mt. Edgecumbe. Lion Del Applegate was appointed by President Poor to Arrange for Army Day, May 20 and Lion Al Bou- tin was appointed chairman of the attendance committee in place of Lion Chester who is out of town. Lion George Rogers was appointed chairman of the civic improvement, committee in plate of MacKay Mal- colm, who is also in the states. 146 CARRIED OVER WEEKED VIA PAN AM Pan American World Airways carried 146 passengers between Seattle, Juneau and Fairbanks over the weekend.

BIG UNION MERGER IS PROPOSED WASHINGTON, April 10 — (A — AFL President William Green today strongly endorsed the idea of merg- ing all American labor unions into a single federation, but avoided tak- ing a stand on a CIO plan for all unions to cooperate politically pend- ing the merger. Green wrote President Philip Murray that the AFL favors forma- tion of “one strong, well established labor organization” in America. But he said he was referring Mur- ray’s idea of a political-economic coordinating committee to the AFL’s executive council for a decision when the council meets at Phila- delphia May 8. Murray proposed last week that the CIO, AFL, railroad unions and other major labor groups join in such a committee and also work for organic unity.
