House Premises
To Be Inspected
By Local Firemen
When a Juneau fireman goes
to your door some time this month
and asks to be permitted to inspect
the premises for fire hazards, give
him the co-operation his mission
invites. He will be there in your
interest, to help prevent the loss
of lives and property, says Chief
Minard Mill.
Chief Mill of the Juneau Fire
! Department has assigned his entire
fire-fighting force of 38 men to
; this extra-duty work throughout
| the month of November. This is a
' part of a national fire prevention
drive spurred by the report that i
! fires in dwellings last year caused
, 7000 deaths, 60 percent of all fire
! fatalities, and approximately $200,- I
000,000 in damage to residences and j
! their contents.
The firemen will not have time
for detailed inspection. It will be
their purpose to call to the atten- ;
tion ol householders the primary j
dangers of rubbish, ashes, flam-1
enable liquids, stoves, stovepipes,
chimneys, fuse boxes and wiring,'
and to point out those hazards i
which may be observed in a brief j
visit. It is the intent of the depart- j
ment to make this inspection an an- ^
nual event.

Rumors that Sen.
Butler Nol to Run

recent conference of governors. Pet
erson is chairman of the conference.
Butler repeatedly has stated that
he is not against ultimate state
hood, but that he is opposed to it
now. As ranking minority member
of the Territorial and Insular Af
fairs Committee, he has led the op
position to statehood during the
past two sessions of Congress.
Has Alaska Contract
Glen Taylor, former Democratic
Senator from Idaho—also banjo
strumming, cowboy-singing vice pre
sidential candidate on the Wallace
ticket in 19-18—has turned his eyes
on Alaska.
Taylor is president of the Coryell
Construction Co., Inc., which re
cently was given a $178,000 contract
for non-defense housing in Alaska
by the Alaska Housing Authority.
Because of his new position, Tay
lor said here today that he was
moving his home, but not his “offic
ial residence,” from Pocatello, Idaho j
to Seattle.
Taylor also flayed reporters who
recently have inferred that his firm
received the contract through influ
ence.
“We submitted the lowest bid, and
therefore got the contract,” Taylor
declared.
William E. Warne who, as assist
ant secretary of the Interior De
partment, had some grandiose and
unrealistic schemes for the develop
ment of Alaska, has resigned to
become head of the Point Four
Project in Iran.
In accepting the resignation, Pre
sident Truman said Warne's exper
ience in reclamation and conserva
tion would be “most valuable in
Iran.” It's no secret here that Inter
ior Secretary Chapman has been try
ing to kick Warne upstairs for some
months.
