Democrats to
Organize at
June 13 Meet
An organizational meeting of all
Democrats has been called for Wed
nesday evening June 13, at 7 o’clock
at Moose hall.
Purpose of the meeting is to form
a Jefferson-Jackson club promoting
the activity of the Democratic party
This is the out-growth of a meet
ing held May 28 at Mike’s Place of
a selected group of Democrats at in
vitation of Mike Haas, former wage
and hour representative of the De
partment of Labor, who has just
returned from four year.-*’ residence
in California.
Haas said he called the meeting
for the discussion of “events of the
day and what should be done about
them," and also for the formation
of the Jefferson-Jackson club. When
formation of the club was brought
up at the Douglas dinner, eight
voted for immediate organization
of the club, four voted against, and
two did not vote.
Peter Wood was nominated presi
denUol the -Jefferson-Jackson club,
but declined the nomination, point
ing out that he was distinctly
against organization of any selected
group as a Democratic club and pro
posed that its membership be
thrown open to all Democrats of
the community. His proposal carried
unanimously, and date of meeting
was set for June 5, at Moose hall,
but later was postponed a week on
account of the weather. It appeared,
it was reported, that leaders of the
movement wished to keep the club
a "closed corporation" but failed to
get sufficient backing.
Dues proposed were $10 sustaining
membership and $25 regular mem
bership.
Those invited by Haas and who
were present were Harry DeLand,
Gus Almquist, Henry Roden, Tom
Stewart. Gene Lockridge, Jerry Wil
liams, Burke Riley, George Sund'oerg,
Peter Wood, Leonard Evans, John
McLaughlin, Walter Hermanson and
Floyd Guertin.
JUNEAU AIRPORT
EXTENSION SEES
DELAY, SCHWAMM
The extension of the Juneau air
port will not be constructed undei
Federal Airport Aid but will hav<
to have a direct congressional ap
propriation similar to those a I
Fairbanks and Anchorage, George
S. fTonyt Schwamm, director of the
Alaska Department of Aviation
said here today.
"However, the Juneau project has
the support of the Alaskan Aii
Command,” he added.
Schwamm reported on the statue
of other Southeast Alaska air fa
cility projects.
Haines
Both military and CAA approva
has been given for a DC-4-PB'V
field at Haines. It is to be 4,100 feet
long and will partially utilize the
old airstrip there. The new field
will be oriented in a more south
westerly-northeasterly direction to
avoid a bluff at the west end of
the field.
This \»ill be a fill job requiring
approximately 100,000 yards. Felix
Toner of Juneau is engineer. One
problem that will have to be worked
out is the straightening out of a
homestead that was filed in 1946
on part of the area but never
proved up on. Bids for construc
tion will be announced as soon as
this is accomplished.
Petersburg
An investigation of seaplane fa
cilities at Petersburg will be made
to see about putting a larger sea
plane facility. A $33,000 dock con
structed in 1947-43 by Petersburg
and the Territory is not giving
the maximum use due to shallow
water.
The Alaska Department of Avia
tion has attempted negotiation with
the Puget Sound Bridge and Dredge
Co. to dredge an area around the
dock but could nut get an estimate
other than $100 an hour with no
estimate on the numoer of hours
to do the job.
Sitka
it, is nopea mat mas win no ame
'o bo advertised within 30 days on
‘he pull-out-turn-around ramp lor
Sitka This pioject has already
I been approved by the Military. It
involves 20.000 yards of concrete
work and 10,000 yards of fill. Felix
Toner of Juneau is the engineer.
Wrangell
The contract has been let to the
City of Wrangell for a $9,000 sea
plane float there and work is in
progress. This will be the largest
constructed in Southeast Alaska. It j
will be 80 feet with double ends to ■
accommodate the traffic. The length
designed by Toner, to ride out the :
heavy swell common during the i
winter Stikine winds, meets a spe
cial problem. The old cover will
be used on the new approach to j
take care of the difficulties posed
by the myriad of careless seagulls. I
Itydaburg
Negotiations have been comple-1
ted for $4,0C0 seaplane float with1
j the town of Hydaburg for a stand
•ard job there.
Ketchikan
Inspection will be made for a
Toner-designed seaplane float at
Ketchikan which was built by K.
J. Warren and is now moored ad
jacent to the Ketchikan Air Service
hangar for transient aircraft.
Areas to be Visited
Schwamm is leaving today to vis
it Southeast Alaska projects inclu
ding Metlakatla and Tyee. Next
week upon his return here, he will
be joined by Sheldon Simmons,
member of the board, and Toner
to look into suitable locations for
seaplane facilities at Excursion In
let, Fun ter Bay, Hawk Inlet, Kim
shan Cove, and Chichagof.
BIG BALL SHOW
FOR LOCAL FANS
MONDAY NIGHT
Rotarians and Lions have formed
a Joint Committee and committees
have been named to handle the
coming civic club softball game to
AT STEVENS,
.of course!
above everything it’s
We've chosen this sheer, magically washable nylon
tricot for you to wear for gay summer comfort.
Designed by Peggy Martin, it’s dramatized with a
smart bib tucked and sparked with tiny buttons. In
sizes 32 to 38. The newest Spring shades.
AS SEEN IN CHARM
-HfevW
128 SEWARD STREET
spotlight the opening of the Salva
tion Army Finance Drive June 11.
The Joint Committee is the idea
of having doctors on botjj sides, in
’ view of the sore and swollen joints
which are anticipated on the fol
i lowing day. A "stunt" ball game
i of any kind is legalized mayhem
in any man’s league.
Juneau kids are especially invi
ted to go with their proud fathers,
since there will be no admission
charge and father may feel inclined
j lo slip a sawbuck in the hat when
time for the Salvation Army “sil
I ent offering" arrives.
In addition to the antics of the
Lions and Rotarians on the field,
i the Kiwanians will be viewed In
; the suicidal role of referees and
\ umpires. Placing the newest of
Juneau’s civic clubs in thfis posi
tlon may obliterate the Kiwanians
if they engage in any intcr-club
rhubarbs. The Rotarians, a fast and
rough ball handling congregation,
have been warned against stringing
piano wires between bases as was
suggested in the Tuesday club
meeting.
Captain Jce Werner of the Lions
will hold down the third sack and
any other bag in that neighborhood,
a fact which should make Rotar
',ans garbed in female attire short
cut that base. Lion Cyrus Peck,
he Killisnoo Killer, may start on
the mound for the Puddy Tats.
The Lion infield as it shaped up
last Monday will be impassable
from bulk alone, with Rhubarb
Rusher, Wistful Williams, and Gey
er the Great standing hip to hip.
On first for the Lions will be a
I one-man delegation from the Ter

MARGARET TRUMAN
VISITS PARLIAMENT;
MEETS ROYALTY, TOO
LONDON. June 6 —(#)— Margaret
Truman visited Parliament Tuesday.
The talk she heard in the House
of Commons was pretty dry — tech
nical aspects of Britain’s financial
position.
But the President’s daughter was
keenly interested in her surround
ings. She admired the palatial new
quarters of Commons, rebuilt after
being destroyed by German bombs.
Margaret, wearing a Navy blue
dress and a small lime green hat,
sat in the distinguished visitors'
gallery.
Monday night Miss Truman had
her first contacts with British roy
alty, meeting and curtsying to Prin
cess Elizabeth and Princess Mar
garet at a dinner at the Princess
Gate home of Ambassador Gifford.
Miss Truman made her curtsy as
the Princesses arrived at the head
of the embassy stairs.
In court circles it has long been
held that it is not a gesture of
servility. It’s like saluting the flag.
HERON CHECKS ON
STREAM MIGRATION
PINK SALMON RUN
The FWS research vessel Heron
has arrived in port from Seattle
with Curt Jensen skipper and Will
Brewington in charge of research.
The Heron has spent the past two
months in Southeast Alaska waters
checking the down-stream migra
tion of pink salmon, Tests carried
out at Humpback Creek and Harris
River, Howard Baltzo. assistant reg
ional director said, showed extreme
ly poor returns. On the other hand,
he said Herman Creek showed an
excellent migration and Old Tom
Creek promised to be equally good.
Katlian Bay had a good rate of
return and survival but Olive Cove,
Baltzo said, was only fair.
Downstream migration has not yet
started at Little Port Walter.
TJje Heron left this afternoon for
Wrangell to commence another tour
of migration stations.
Pink salmon are two-year fish.
The young fish coming down stream
this spring will return to spawn in
1952. A check on the downstream
migration at this time can approxi
mate what the 1952 run will be.
