MUCH DONE ACCA DURING PAST 5 YEARS meeting is to re-, home nurs- Turning the tables on traditional | birthday procedure, the Alaska Crippled Children’s Association ob- served its fifth anniversary by being the gift giver instead of receiver this year. This energetic volunteer or- ganization which begins its sixth year this month sent a gift of $5,000 for the hospitalization program of | Alaska’s crippled children. Contributed through the Alaska Department of Health, the sum is ‘eligible for doubling in federal | matching funds for the program. “Needless to say, this contribu- tion is very much appreciated by, the Health Department and will be of great help toward our hospitali- zation program for crippled child- ren,” Dr. C. Earl Albrecht, commis- sioner of health, stated to Mrs. Marshall Hoppin, president of the ACCA, in acknowledging the $5,000 \gift. Appreciation of the gift, he said, extends “to all the ACCA chapters who made this fine con- tribution possible.” The check brought to $73,225 the money which the ACCA, through ! work of its membership, has contri- Ibuted in the past five years for matching in federal funds for the crippled children’s program in the territory. A vast amount of help at the Orthopedic Center at Mt. Edge- cumbe hospital has also been con- tributed by the ACCA, according‘ to an article by Dr. Philip Moore, orthopedic surgeon, in a recent issue of “Alaska’s Health.” Sitka ACCA chapter members have given continuous and innum- erable personal services to the Or- thopedic Center patients at Mt. Edgecumbe, Dr. Moore said, among which are birthday cakes for each child and holiday parties. Members of the Juneau ACCA chapter, in addition to aiding the Orthopedic Center, have devoted time and much personal attention to the small patients in the Chronic Disease Unit at St. Ann’s hospital Among their many gifts and ices which help pass the hours con- | structively for the children are oc- cupational therapy materials such as leatherwork equipment, small looms and an educational course for the bedridden, according to Dr. Vir- ginia Cobb, health department pedi- atric consultant, who is director of the Chronic Disease Unit. She pointed out that these pur- suits keep the children mentally alert and interested which plays a vital part in the success of their hospital treatment. Most of the Chronic Disease Unit patients are suffering from rheumatic fever or other heart conditions Shopping aid and the furnishing of clothes for children who have outgrown items in their wardrobes by the time they are ready to leave iexpressed the opinion that Genera ' MacArthur. | States last |who served his country so 2 the hospital are also among their much appreciated services, Dr. Cobb said. Mrs. Betty McCormick is president of the Juneau ACCA chapter. Dr. Moore cited some specific examples of help of the ACCA at the Orthopedic Center as: aid in purchase of expensive equipment for a brace shop so that the child- ren under treatment could have their braces made exactly for their needs right at the hospital; placed a full-time ACCA representative at the center to assist the speciaiized professional staff in meeting the personal needs of the small patients; furnished much- of the equipinen and interior decoration for the center’s attractive schoolroom; ranged for film showings, pla ground equipment’ and other recre- ational facilities; provided muci physical therapy equipment and established an orthopedic fund for small purchases. “It is impossible to tell fully how important the work is and how the ACCA members have contributec to the success of the orthopedic program in Alaska,” Dr. Moore stated. MacARTHUR BLUNDERER, | SAYS BIGART NEW YORK, Jan. 15—®—War Correspondent Homer Bigart, wri&-l ing in this week's Look magazine Douglas MacArthur was responsible for “unsound deployment of the United Nations forces and a mo- mentous blunder” in Korea. Bigart said this nation no longer can afford to' “string along” with New York Herald Trib- | returned to the United ; week after working in: Korea and Tokyo since last July 1. He wrote in the Look article that MacArthur must be criticized upon one decision, which “helped msur(‘ the success of the enemy’s strategy.” That decision, the article said, was the order launching the last UN. offensive. Bigari| Bigart, a une writer, “It is a great tragedy that a man nobly should be hounded and disparaged in the final hours of his caree “But that is one of the occupa- tional hazards of being a Gener: Bigart, now 43, won a Pulitzer Prize in 1946 for international re- porting.

MANY NEW BOOKS ARE IN JUNEAU LIBRARY | The volume of books taken out | of the Juneau City Library is upi 145 oyer last year, Mu$. Edna Lomen, librarian reported today.

THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA CANNERY WORKERS PAY, FISH PRICES UP, HAINES PLANT Contracts allowing an increase in hourly wages and seasonal guar- antees for cannery workers and in the price per fish for dog salmon in this year’s commercial fishing season have been signed by the Haines Packing Company for its plant operations at Haines, accord- ing to Kenneth Bowman, Alaska Organizer for%the American Fed- eration of Labor. Bowman returned to Juneau yesterday by Pan Ameri. can World Airways plane from Seattle where he negotiated the contract with the salmon canning ompany for the fishermen and cannery workers in the Haines district. Bowman said the contract also provides for time and half over the 40 hour week and for time and a half for overtime for the pre-sea- son work at the cannery site. The new contract for this coming season carries an 18 cent raisé in hourly rates and a 12 and one half percent increase in seasonal guarantees for cannery workers. Wages will graduate upward from $1.58 per hour. Workers get free rtation to and from y, a distance of seven from Haines, or a choice of company housing. The increase in season guaran- tees to cannery workers now brings the percentage on a standard with provisions of the contract with the Alaska Marine District Union and the Alaska Salmon Industry, Bow- man said. The 23 cents increase per fish for dog salmon will bring the price to be paiq for dog salmon this seascn to 55 cents per fish, A price of 32 cents per fish was paid last year. The Haines Packing Company paid 90 cents minimum, for inde- pendent gear, per fish for red salmon last season and this price remains unchanged for the 1951 season, Bowman said. Bowman said the contract with the Haines Packing Company for the 1951 season carries a provision that the company will meet the same prices that may be negotiated later in the season for red salmon and dog salmon, if they are high- er than those agreed to in the new contract now in effect. Bowman said the company has also given exclusive recognition to the AFL Union as a bargaining agent for both the cannery work- ers and the fishermen that are associated with its plant at Haines. Commenting on the recently ne- gotiated contracts Bowman said today, “These two contracts are additional evidence the AFL is de- voting its primary efforts to better the economic and working stand- ards of workers with a minimum of friction with employers, and a total lack of political-isms.” PR SR miles SALMON DERBY WINNERS MAKE TRIP TO SEATTLE, GUEST SPORTSMENS ASSO.
