LITTLE OLD LADY
CHICAGO OP) — Mrs. Mary
Porch, owner of a small south side
restaurant, called Englewood po
lice last night and reported that a
customer had attempted to steal a
charity fund box.
After paying for a cup of coffee,
Mrs. Porch told police, the man
grabbed the box which contained
contributions from patrons.
“You can’t do that,” Mrs. Porch
said she told the thief and she
grabbed his arm and took the box
away from him.
As he fled, Mrs. Porch, who is
72 years old and five feet, one inch
tall, went to the kitchen to report
the incident to her son, Louis, 54.
Asks Legislation
To Solve Alaska’s
Shipping Problems
• _
As a vanguard for legislative
solution to the Alaska shipping
problem, Delegate Bartlett has
asked Congress that freight and
passengers be allowed to be car
ried on foreign vessels between
the continental United States and
Alaska ports and between ports
within tne Territory.
. •
If favorable action is taken, a
law of 1886 forbidding such car
nage of passengers and the Me -
chant Marine Act of 1920, the so
called Jones Act, prohibiting trans
fer of freight on foreign vessels
between American ports will be
rescinded, so far as Alaska is con
cerned, and Canadian vessels will
be able to enter this trade.
Informal preliminary discus-,
sions have bene carried on the,
past wek among Congressmen S.
O. Bland of Virginia, Henry M.
Jackson of Washington, Christian
Herter of Massachusetts, Gerald
Helmbold and George Talmage of
the Maritime Commission and
Delegate Bartlett centered around
the impending interim operation of,
the Alaska vessels. By law private
operation of ships in the Alaska1
trade must be turned over from\
government on February 28 of
this year. Preparation for such op-|
eration is under way, and the'
steamship companies are planning
new tariffs which anticipate ask
ing freight and passenger rates
very substantially in excess of!
those now prevailing. It has been
indicated that if such rates are
proposed the Territorial govern
ment will again intervene in strong
opposition before the Maritime:
Commission wher the tariffs would
be filed by the steamship compan
ies. It was decided at the recent
meeting that steamship officials
would be called to Washington to
participate in further conferences.
Report on Fisheries and Shipping
Reporting on fishery and ship- \
ping problems in Alaska upon
which hearings were held in 1946,'
the House Merchant Marine and
Fisheries Committee submitted the:
folowing brief analysis to Con-1
gress:
“People of the Territory of Alas- i
ka are fully dependent upon ships!
plying between the Territory and
the West Coast for their supplies
and essentials of life. Freight
rates charged by these ships have!
a substantial effect upon the stand-1
ard of living of the people of the
country. Prior to the war, vessels
to and from Alaska were operated
by three private ship lines. During |
the war, however, all Alaska shipj
operations were carried on for the
| account of the War Shipping Ad
i ministration. While the Maritime
I Commission is now continuing
I these operations, its authority to
do so expires on February 2«,
1947, and at that time private op
erations must be resumed. The
, private operators have stated,
I however, that unless they have re
ive, ved substantial freight increases
| they will be unable to operate,
| while the people of Alaska have
argued that such freight increases
will not only increase their cost of
living, but also hinder the devel
opment of the Territory.
"As legislative action appears
necessary, a special subcommittee
held hearings in Washington, Jun
eau and Seattle on this matter. In
addition, a special advisory group
has been appointed, consisting of
three experts in the Alaska trade,
to advise the committee as to what
action is necessary. While there is
no evidence of wrongdoing in this
case, this is a matter within the
jurisdiction of the committee
which may have extremely serious
repercussions if not adequately ^
handled. As a result of the sub
committee’s hearings and the find
ings of the advisory group, legisla
tion can be introduced in the new
Congress adequate to handle this
situation.
“Another problem dealt with by
the committee during its Alaska
hearings involved present policies
by the Department of Interior con
cerning the Alaska fisheries. At
the present time, fish traps are li
censed in a manner which is un
satisfactory to the cannery oper
ators, the residents of Alaska, and
the Department itself. Several pro
posals have been made as to the
best methods of handling this sit
uation. New legislation will be
necessary to handle this matter,
and hearings held by your sub- _
committee should be helpful in the
draft of the proposed new stat
utes.”
FARMERS TO SPEND
BILLION ON IMPROVEMENTS
NEW YORK UP)—There’s a bil
lion-dollar deal on to keep John
nie down on the farm—$1,057,900,
000, to be exact—a sum which
farmers served by electricity ex
pect to spend by 1950 for improve
ments, according to a study of the
Tile Council of America.
Approximately one out of every
five farm families will install
showers, tile baths or buy new
plumbing fixtures in the next few
years, D. P. Forst, chairman of the
Council’s Residential Construc
tion Committee, reported.
Farmers expect to make huge
purchases of electric milking ma
chines, motors, baby chick brood
ers, cream separators and house
hold appliances, Forst said.
