JU.SKA MBIES NEW SCOPEO Reported Drug Addicts and Per sons With Social Diseases Work in Industry ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Nov. 21. i (By the Associated Press.) —Legis-| lation compelling rigid examinatic.i j oi employes to be sent to Alaska | for the salmon canning season was i recommended in a federal grand j jury report made recently to Judge | E. E. Ritchie at Valdez, Alaska. The report recommended that pros pective employes should be exam ined at the port of debarkation to ascertain ii any are drug addicts or afflicted with communicable dis eases. The report state that the use and ! sale of narcotis during the canning season at Bristol Bay. Alaska, is; rampant; that cannery workers suf-1 sering from social diseases in ag-1 giavated form were permitted to] work in packing fish; that degener acy was in evidence and quite com- | mon; that the carrying of revolvers wai) general, resulting in crimes j and violence. In blanket ndictment of tne■ class of employes imported each | season lor cannery work, the grand juiy leported that ex-convicts and naicotic addicts offer the most se rious problem affecting the salmon industry. The grand jury report ] said, in part: “w “Many of these matters and eon * (Titians demand legal action and ‘ prosecution, but this grand jury did not convene until after the cannery crews had departed from | the fishing fields. "We recommend that legislation be enacted to require canneries and contractors to furnish their employ es with sufficient supply of whole-] some food and sanitary living quar-1 ters during their labors; that the l Alaska legislature enact such laws! as will compel canneries and can-!' iiery contractors to pay their em-1 ployes in money at least once a I month; we further recommend leg islation that will require canneries i hiring men in the states ;,id bring-! ] ing them to Alaska to return such I employes to the port of departure I in the states, as numbers of men are left penniless in Alaska by these companies with no ade quate provision for their support and transportation outside.” CUT-OFF Ernest Coker and R.

Indications that members of con gross from the West are suspicious that the Department of Agricul ture is not always the friend of the farmer were given in a speech re cently delivered by Senator Mag nus Johnson of Minnesota. After speaking of complaints uttered by agricultural producers against other branches of the Republican ad ministration. Senator Johnson said: “1 think there is another govern ment department that deserves the attention of th-« Senators and Con gressmen representing the people when they get to Washington this ■fall—our Department of Agricul ture. In every line in which farm ers touch other business its hands seems to be the hands of Jacob and not those of Esau. “It looks to me like Esau's de partmcnt is loaded up with Jacob's meat packers, cotton speculators grain dealers, and Standard Oil educators. I don’t know the details of this order myself, but as a farm er Senator I can vote to allow those who do know to tell the truth about it.” Secretary Wallace is the publish er of an agricultural periodical and his friends often refer to him as a farmer. He seems not to have the complete confidence of his fellow a, riculturists. FRENCH COUPLES FIND HOUSING PROBLEM KEEN PARIS November 21.
