ELEVATOR MAN
REFUTES RUMOR
Ernest Roth well, elevator can
s: rector from the Otis Elevator Co.,
Seattle, today refuted rumors that
the elevator shaft in th? Menden
hall apartments was dangerously
OU' of plumb.
"The shaft may bo about 5 8 inch
out but that is taken care of in the
installation of the steelwork,” lie
said. "The two elevators are abso
lutely in plumb.”
The elevators from th basement
to the 12.h floor are the newest
Oli automatic type with a capacity j
of 13 passengers and move at the
rate’of 20J feet per minute. The j
operation is so smooth and quiet in
the one completed and now operat
ing that a passenger doesn’t realize
the cage is moving.
Installation of the second eie- !
vaior is expected to be completed {
by the end of next week.
Kenneth Eskestrand. building su- j
perintendent, said that a new crew i
cf asphalt tile layers had arrived .
to expedite that phase of the work. :
The four top floors w ill be ready j
for occupancy by mid-July and the
others, including the ground floor
commercial space, by the end of July.
Mr. and Mrs. Eskestrand expect |
to return to their home in Havre,
Merit., by the middle of August.
O. V*. 'iupper, on experienced
apartment house manager, is ex
pected to*arrive in Juneau on Sun
day.
Requests for rentals are going
well. Eskestrnnd said. Rate- for' the
apartments will run front $83 ,o
$140 per month depending on loca
tion and will be unfurnished ex p.
for electric stove, refrigerator end
built-in clipboards.

Defense is Your job, too!
Searching our coastal waters for
unidentified submarines, this
Navy blimp pilot is constantly on
the alert to protect American shores. His blimp carries
the most effective airborne detection gear in the world,
enabling him to pinpoint and track a target even when
it is submerged. And he is doing a vitally important
job in defense of America.
Defense is your job, too. And one of the best ways
for you to do your part is by keeping yourself and
your country economically strong. BuV U. S. Defense*
Bonds now and regularly. Go to the pay office where
you work and sign up for the Payroll Savings Plan or
join the Bond-A-Month Plan where you bank. But
don’t put it off—do it today!
The U. S. Defense Bonds you buy
give you personal financial independence
ltemember that when you’re buying Defense Bonds you’re
building a personal reserve of cash savings. Money that
will some day buy you a house or educate your children,
or support you when you retire. Remember, too, that if
you don’t save regularly, you generally don’t save at all.
So go to your company’s pay oifice—now—and sign up to
buy Defense Bonds through the Payroll Savings Plan. j
Don’t forget that bonds are now a better buy than ever.
I Because now every Scries K liynd you own automatically
goes on earning interest every year for 20 years from date
of purcliase instead of 10 as before! This means that the
bond you bought for $18.75 can return you not $25—but
as much as $33.33—if you just hold it the extra ten yearp!
A $37.50 bond pays $6G.66. And so on. For your security,
and your country's, too, buy U. S. Defense Bonds nowl
*U. S. Savings Bonds are Defense Bonds
DBuy them regularly!

SPOKANE, June 29 —U?I— Pres
byterians of the Washington and
Ala.- ka synod may meet in Alaska
in the future.
Delegates to the G3rd annual ses
sion now under way here voted
yesterday to return here for next
year’s meeting, but directed the
moderator to appoint a committee
:o investigate possibilities of a con
ference in Alaska. The committee
will report at the 1952 session.
The Rev. Ernest M. Christiansen,
uastor of the Mt. Bakei Park Pres
byterian church, Seattle, was among
supporters of the proposed Alaska
inference.
‘ Certainly Alaska is in a position
jf strategic importance in the light
3f world affair . and the church nat
urally shares a place in that posi
tion," he declared.
In other actions yesterday, the
synod demanded that Rita Hay
worth be barred from movie-making
and urged rigid enforcement of
Washington’s Sunday closing law.
IRAN CRISIS
DOESN'T LOOK
TOO BRIGHT
TEHRAN. Iran, June 29 —tfi—
U S. Ansi, saidor Her.ry F. Grady
appealed anew to Premier Moham
med M' -sadegh today for conces
sion that would insure the flqw of
oil to the west from the world’s
lar.oot refinery at Abadan.
Grady talked for 90 minutes with
Mossadegh, then told r.ewcqjen that
chances for easing Iran’s 6:1 crisis
"don’t look too bright” df- plte Mos
sadegh’s promise to suspend anti
sabotage legislation Opposed by the
British. But Brill'-U officials, with
the refinery under the guns of one
of their cruisers, appeared more
hopeful.
Grady said he would pfSpore to
he British that they keep their
technicians on the job at Abadan.
A British emba :>y spokesman said
employes of the Anglo-Irunian Oil
irpany, which operate the re
finery and produces vir.uaiiy all of
Iran’s oil, would not be withdrawn
3 long as the refinery stays open.
Withdrawal of the technicians would
cose the refinery.
Grady called suspension cl the
Ami-Sabotage bill a goodwill ges
ture. It followed on the heels of
Mossadegh’s letter yesterday tc
Fresident Truman.
The U. S. ambassador made clear
that the premier would not budge
inch on the nationalization pro
gram.
