High team in yesterday's check-in| was Team 9, captained by Norman Sommers, and team members Gil Koffil, John Satre Jr, William Goodman, and Ted Lupro. Team 9 accounted for $250 of the total, with team 1, led by captain Ray Bolton, having second best total of $203. | High man in the first report was Bill Ellis, who checked in $122 for team 1.

S. 8th ARMY HEADQUART- ERS, Korea, Oct. 18—(®—Chinese suddenly abandoned a series of key hills in western Korea to attacking Americans today. But they stiffened against allies crunching forward to- ward their Kumsong stronghold in the center. having all of its members make their first report at the “coffee hour” check-in meeting. The Gov-| ernment and Special division, co-| chairmanned by Ralph Browne andi W. A, Elkins has turned in $207 to| date, and the Executive Committee | for the campaign accounts for $610 of the total. About half of the workers have| made their first report, Phillips said, with every indication that this year's final result will equal that for 1950 when Juneau and Douglas contributed $5,559.62 in the annual campaign. All campaign workers having money to check in during the com- ing week are asked to leave their| report envelopes with Ken Ubbel- ohde at the Boy Scout cffice in the Goldstein Building, with John Durney at Behrends Bank, or with Tom Cashen at the First National Bank. Individuals missed in the solicitation may mail contributions to the Boy Scouts at box 2508, Phillips said. DOUGLAS NEWS SQUARE DANCING SATURDAY The Taku Travelers will form| squares on Saturday evening for | another night of community square dancing in the gymnasium of the Douglas Public Schools. Everyone of the community is in- vited to attend these dance nights and are welcome to, just sit and watch if not caring to dance. It i a good place to meet neighbors, says the dance committee, and there is always good music. From 8 to 8:30 o’'clock is caller’s practice with dancing beginning at 8:30. WINDY NIGHT Douglas residents underwent an-| other noisy windy night yesterday . with the 'Taku continuing its prowl. No damage has been re- ported to property with the excep- tion of one or two blown out home windows. Several boats have been damaged on the waterfront. WORK RESUMED Work resumed this week on the 10 Alaska Housing Authority build- ings on Fifth Street, after work was held up for two weeks due to {itle insurance restrictions. Car- penter crews worked on a similar housing project at Palmer during the time work was held up here. Troops of the U. 8. First Cavalry Division overran four hills north- west of Yonchon almost unopposed. The Americans had been fight- ing for the ridge line for two weeks in one of the bloodiest small actions of the entire Unit- ed Nations autumn offensive. Chinese deserted the western hills @uring the night after beating off a series of flame-throwing at- tacks Wednesday. The doughboys fanned out over the charred, artillery-scarred ridge virtually without firing a shot. The unopposed advance place the cavalry troopers about two miles in front of their positions of Oct. 3 when the UN western offensive started. A front line officer said the op- eration “to all practical intents and purposes is complete.” From the center of the Korean front AP correspondent Sam Sum- merlin reported a “curtain of smoke from hursting UN shells and bombs rose like a sweeping forest fire” in front of allied infantrymen ad- vancing on Kumsong. After flying over the area, Sum- merlin wrote: “Kumsong town.” Council for Civil Defense Meefs; New looked like a ghost 'Commitiee Plans A meeting of the Civil Defense ‘Council in the Governor's office on ;Mond y, October 15, decided on the necessity of a committee whose |action will be in a purely advisory | capacity to the Civil Defense Coun- cil. The committee will advise the council on the best means of hand- {ling a financial emergency that might come as the result of a hos- tile attack where banks are ‘des- troyed and both businesses and in- dividuals would find themselves in immediate need of obtaining credit. It was also decided to approve the expenditure of not to exceed $10,000 for the purchase of training aids on a matching fund basis. First priority was given to the needs of the more, critical areas. Members present were J. W. Ke- hoe, acting governor, Dr. C. Earl Albrecht, commissioner of health, Colonel L. Johnson, adjutant gen- eral, ANG. Frank Metcalf, high- way engineer, Tom Dyer, member at large. FROM HAINES Helen Gray, of Haines, is stay- ing at the Gastineau Hotel. Others present were Colonel Earl Landreth, Territorial director of Civil Defense and Burke Riley. In California Fish Peddling by Union Spreading LOS ANGELES, Oct 1§—®—The International Longshoremen and ‘Warehousemen Union’s experiment in fish-peddling is so successful that outlets are springing up throughout California. Already in the Los Angeles area 12 outlets are being mobbed by housewives after choice, fresh alba- core tuna at 25 cents per pound. “We plan to continue selling until the tuna season is over,” said Jeff Kibre, secretary of the ILWU'’s fish- eries division. This may be next week or well into November. The union has prepared a series of recipes for cooking and canning he big fish—they average from nine to 20 pounds—and a copy of the recipes goes with each sale. It all started because canneries were buying frozen tuna from Japan in preference to the fresh catches of American fishermen, said Kibre. “So we decided to use American initiative and create our own market,” he explained. All fishermen, regardless of union affiliation, are invited by the ILWU to participate. The ILWU pro- gram pays a minimum of 15 cents a pound to the fishermen, Kibre said, compared with 11¢ cents paid by canneries. Guardsman Denies Police Charges Octavius Hayward, seaman from the Coast Guard Cutter, the Storls, denied in municipal court Wednes- day that he was involved in the car wreck from which four charges he is faced with grew. His trial was continued to today. He is charged by police with-taking a fellow Coast Guardsman’s car, and wrecking it against a fire plug and a private dwelling n Willough- by Avenue on Qct. 6. Hayward claims he was restrict- ed to quarters on that night and did not leave the Storis. His officers say that it is true that he was re- stricted to quarters, but police say | they have proved that it was pos- sible for hini to leave the ship. Evidence from tide tables, police say, show that Hayward could eas- ily have left the ship without pass- the Quartermaster. Wills, Insurance Are Discused af JW( Meeting Members of the Juneau Woman'’s Club acquired important informa- | tion yesterday afternoon about the making of wills and the kind of in- surance that will guarantee protec- | tion to themselves and also their loved ones. F. O. Eastaugh preceded his talk with a short history of the making | of wills and H. S. Rowland who| spoke on insurance illustrated his talk with chalk and blackboard. | Both men devoted considerable time | to an informal discussion of points | raised by questions from their list- eners, and the program proved to be one of the most interesting of | the year. The meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Don Morrison and the host- esses at the dessert luncheon which preceded the program were Mrs. C. V. Rudolph and Mrs. M. O. Johnson. NOW isthe timeto SAVE!?

Prices Are Sure to Rise with Critical Shortages Ahead Inoted that Russia is THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA Russian Compact Worth Nothing, Says President WASHINGTON, Oct. 18—(#—Pre- sident Truman paper it is written on. That was the President’s only comment on Soviet foreign minister Vishinsky's statement that U.S.- Soviet relations could hardly be worse than they are now after Mr. Soviet agreements are not worth the paper they are written on. Vishinsky made the crack in a note rebuffing a secret U. S. pro- posal that Moscow act to bring about an armistice in Korea. He suggested instead talks on the general causes of east-west con- flict. Mr. Truman told a news confer- ence he had not yet seen the Soviet note and he couldn’t comment on it. Initial State Department reaction was that this offer was propa- | ganda, but the wording of the Ru guessing among diplomats as to whether the Kremlin is sincere, . Moscow and the State Depart- ment disclosed last night that Ambassador Alan Kirk on Oct. 5 made the approach for Soviet in- tervention to end the deadlock between United Nations negotia- tors’and the Communists. Soviet Foreign Minister Vishin- sky gave no direct reply, but he “not a party to these negotiations.” He also: (1) charged the UN com- mand created the cease-fire stale- mate with “all kinds of incidents;” (2) supported the North Korean- Chinese position regarding a truce line in the area of the 38th paral- led; and (3) offered the Soviet's “full and energetic support” of mea- sures for the “the successful conclu- sion of negotiations — successful presumably from the Red viewpoint.
