New Equipment
At Lumber Mil!
The Juneau Lumber Co., mill is
closing down for a week while new
equipment is being installed. Free
man Butler, mill superintendent
said today.
Regular operations ceased yester
day afternoon. Fifty-two men are
employed, representing a monthly
payroll of about $25,000, Butler said.
He estimated the value of the
new equipment at around $9,000. It
includes a new Simondson log turner
a new main roll case, an extension
to a pony saw and a 66-inch Mar
shon resaw.
The present output of the mill
is between 50,000 and 60,000 board
feet daily with the new lumber
piling up faster than it can be
shipped out. However, Butler said
about 50 percent of the production
has been absorbed locally,
“The problem has been getting
shipping space on the steamships,”
Butler pointed out. “We have been
shipping a limited amount in our
scows to the westward, but we ex
pect the Space congestion will ease
off within the next few weeks.”
Log Purchase
Logs for the mill are purchased
on the open market with four log
ging outfits at Pillar Bay, Fanshaw,
Windham Bay, and Blind Slough
supplying the mill now.
It is expected, Butler said, that
filling in the yards will be resumed
shortly near the Incinerator so
that a planing mill can be erected
there.
Butler joined the company a few
weeks ago. Originally from Seattle,
he has lived much of life in south
eastern Alaska but for the past
three years has been in lumbering
at Lac-La-Hache, B. C.

Lady in Sea Epic
At 20th Century
The presence of the beautous
Lady Barbara, sister of the Duke of
Wellington, aboard Captain Horatio
Hornblower’s ship, The Lydia, is not
as out of place as it may seem to
! the hurried students of history and
I sea customs during the nineteenth
century.
This is pictorially explained in
“Captain Horatio Hornblower," War
ner Bros.' Technicolor spectacle of
the sea based on the best-selling
novel by C. S. Forester. The film
is now showing at the 20th Century
Theatre.
Women, beautiful and otherwise,
were frequent guests and passengers
aboard fighting vessels in those days
when Napoleon was making his bid
tft rule the world, and Hornblower
would have been as quick to welcome
a beautiful lady aboard as a passen
ger as the next one.
The. sea was “a man's world” in
those trying times, but then as ever,
the men themselves liked the com
panionship of women. In writing the
Hornblower adventures, Forester in
vestigated and found out that, a
woman might have been a passenger
on The Lydia before he dared in
clude the episode in his history of
the sea.
