U. S. Naval Academy at Annapolis, was president of his class, for two terms—an honor for a boy irom! Juneau—and was graduated in the| class of 1921-A. He was married to Hazel Jaeger, | also born ‘in Juneau, graduate of the JHS class of 1916 who beforei their marriage finished Mills Col-| lege in Oakland, California. The! MacKinnons first navy duty was| in the Orient where their son J Simpson (Skip) MacKinnon, Jr.,! was born. Lt, MacKinnon resigned from the | navy in 1926, joined the naval re- serve and bought into Juneau's| Alaska Laundry in which he event-| ually became a major stockholder | In addition to his naval reserve| activities, MacKinnon was appoint-| ed honorary naval aide by Gover- ‘ nor George A.

BARNES (Mrs. Frank Barnes) Of Wrangell Republican candidate for the House of Representatives Federal Highway Act, despite Alaska's great need for roads. “The smallest state has two Rep- resentatives in the Senate and one in the House. The citizens of the United States who live in Alaska are entitled to like representation.” Chapman said that until recently virtually all development in the | Territory was carried on by absen- tee capital “which did Alaska al- most as much harm as building up of industries did good.” The Secretary told of the work being done in the Territory by his department and said that Alaska’s present population is well | jover 100,000 persons. But, he said, ! Alaska needs and wants a larger permanent population “and the way to provide for it surely and speedily is to grant statehood.” “Fraud” Obtained It “As a nation, we have an in- terest in a strong Alaska,” Chap- man said, “especially in this period {of the cold war. Alaska is just 56 miles across the Bering Strait from | Russian Siberia. It once belonged to Russia and recently the official | Soviet press organ has charged it was acquired by fraud and that !the Czarist government had no authority to dispose of it. “We are told there is considerable military activity in Siberia, near and beyond the border,” he added. “We cannot afford to neglect Alaska, to give any indication that it is not just as important a pard of the United States as any one of the present 48 states. “We must provide for Alaska, in the speediest and most efficient manner, a strong political and eco- nomic systerm, to bind it even more closely to the mainland than it is now bound by ties of blood and kinship, political heritage, com- merce and community interest in ! national and international affairs.” LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS LUNCH TUESDAY The Juneau League of Women Voters will hold its regular noon luncheon meeting tomorrow at the Baranof. Program will continue study of the Federal budget and Mrs. Rose Jermain, who has just returned from a visit of the League head- quarters in ashington, D. C., will give a report on her trip.

FOR HONEST AND EFFI- CIENT GOVERNMENT, 9-7t Milk 'Cold War' His |JUNEAU ELKS KEEP Diplomatic Front |BOWLING TROPHY AS As Survey Promised!SKAGWAY DEFEATED The cold war brought on by in- vasion of fresh Canadian milk into the Juneau area has hit the high diplomatic arena in Alaska, as Com- missioner of Agriculture Clyde G. Sherman of Fairbanks has entered the battleground with an investiga- tion of the situation. This was revealed today in a let- ter he wrote Acting Governor Lew M. Williams, stating “considerable study” on the Juneau milk situation is being carried on and that the most “logical approach to the sub- ject is to ask the Alaska Research Administration to conduct a cost ot droduction survey in the dairy in- dustry.” If this survey shows a justifica- Jdon of local dairymen’s claims they are being forced into bankruptcy 2y appearance of the Canadian pro- duct on grocery shelves, he suggests -hey petition for a higher tariff. Sherman promised the “matter ~ill not be dropped until the prob- em is solved. Consumers should be «ware of the fact there is no assur- ance that milk will be 25 ceats 1 juart if local dairies are forced out of business.” During the height of the milk ~ar here, prices dropped from 2o cents to 25 cents on local milk, forced down to that price by the Canadian milk. It has since gone Jack up, with the foreign product 10w selling at 30 cents. Sherman expressed concern thot «he “non-resident” milk might in- vade the Fairbanks and Anchorage areas, in a letter of warning to Don L. Irwin, director of the Alaska Zxperiment Station at Palmer. He said that from information he received that dairy producers in Southeast Alaska might be forced .nto bankruptcy ‘“unless some ac- Jdon is taken.” “However,” he continued, “we aave no assurance Canadian milk will be marketed at prevailing orices once dairymen are forced out.” The Federal Import Milk Act applies only to the 48 states, accord- ing to information reaching Serman from John O. Malott, production and marketing administrator for Alaska. The present import order applies only to fats, oils and rice, he said, with milk not subject to it. Several months ago only one gro- cery handled the milk here. Now three put it on their shelves. CPR PURSER HERE AS ACTING AGENT R. Attwater of Prince Rupert, who is a purser on the Elaine on the route between Vancouver, B. C. and Nanaimo, arrived Saturday on the Princess Louise to relieve Will- iam Feero, local CPR agent while the Feero family is making a va- cation tour of the Interior and Westward.
