100 Bum to Death as
Flash Fire Destroys
Old Ladies’ Home
YOKOHAMA, Japan UP)—About
100 aged women died in flaming
agony Thursday when a flash fire
turned a Roman Catholic old
ladies’ home into a 30-minute in
ferno before dawn.
There were only 46 survivors,
police said. Nearly all were
burned or injured in jumps from
the second floor of their two-story
wooden domitory. Several were
in critical condition.
“I could do nothing,” a surviVor
cried. “I can hear their screams.
‘Hot! . . . Hot! . . . Help! . . Help!’ ”
The inmates were mainly piti
ful old Japanese women without
families. Their ages ranged from
60 to 96.
It was Japan’s worst building
fire since the Pacific war air raids.
The 1951 Sakaragicho train fire
in central Kokohama killed 106.
Sister Umeko Sugiyama, 42, a
nun, died when she dashed back
into the burning building tQ carry
out another of her charges.
Welfare Ministry officials in
Yokohama said the building had
been declared a fire menace in
| 1953.
Yokohama police said the blaze
j apparently started with defective
wiring . . .

Legislative Action
In Alaska House .
Of Representatives
By JIM HUTCHESON
JUNEAU, (J*)—The Territorial
House of Representatives passed
a highly controversial bill Wed
nesday to allow the replacement
of a district judge in a civil suit
by agreements of attorneys of
both sides, on a 13-11 vote.
Supporters of the bill assured
the House it is not aimed at any
specific judge or judges. The bill
now goes to the Senate.
In the “new bills” line, one to
end the life of the Legislative In
vestigating and Examining Com
mittee and transfer its functions
to the Legislative Council was in
troduced in the House by Speaker
Wendell Kay <D-Anchorage* and
Torn Stewart (D-Juneau. Both the
committee and council were set
up by the 1953 legislature.
A companion bill they sponsored
would reconstitute the council
and add the power of subpoena to
its authority so that it could call’
in officials or records for examin
ation. It would also add the
speaker of the House and the
president of the Senate to council
membership.
Reps. Stewart and Kay also in
troduced a bill to bring Alaska
within the higher education com
pact of the western states, which
facilitates the shifting of a stu
dent from one state or territory to
a state which has the professional
school he wishes to attend and
which his own state or territory
does not have.
A perennial 40-hour week, min
imum wage bill also made its ap
pearance. Sen. William Beltz <D
Haycock) introduced the measure
to require overtime for work over
40 hours and a minimum wage of
$1.50 for either males or females.
It 'would repeal the present law,
which has only a 45-cent hourly
minimum for girls and a mini
mum of $18 for a woman’s 48
hour week. .
The bill would exempt much
work of part time or occasional
nature—such as babysitting, pa- •
per boys and jobs by the aged or
partially disabled, who could get
special permits from the labor
commissioner.
Sen. Frank Barr <D-Fairbanks>
dropped in a bill to make a tenant
responsible for damage which
might occur from freezing or oth
er causes when he leaves rented
premises.
