SPECIAL COURT TERM
The calling of a special term of
the District Court to convene in
the Federal courtroom at Seward,
Alaska, on January 4, 1932, does
not necessarily mean that Judge
Hill will be here at that time.
The calling of special terms at
the begin ing of the calendar year
m each o' the towns of the Third
Division where terms of court are
usually held is a custom adopted
by Judge Hill for the purpose of
uniformity and to keep alive the
term of court in each locality in
■order that court business may be
transacted without delay and as
the occasion arises.
The plan adopted by Judge Hill
meets the approval of the members
of the bar and also the general
public.
Mrs. George Jenkins and daugh
ters Florence and Henrietta, of An
chorage, were outgoing passengers
on the SS Victoria for a visit to

IN EXCELLENT CONDITION
To a point near Mile 10, on the
Seward-Kenai Lake Highway, driv
ing is as good as on the local streets.
In case of necessity, one could drive
all the way to the lake but it is
not advisable owing to tie-hauling
activities on that end.

merce met at its regular weekly
meeting today at noon in the Elec
tric Bakery and Grill.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 9. (A>)

an action that would echo into the
Presidential election, the eve of the
i 18th Amendment is in a frenzy of
last minute maneuvering as op
ponents of prohibition prepared to
deluge Congress with bills to mod
ify or repeal it. Defendants of the
law rallied their forces, confident
i of victory.
