NATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, 1411 Fourth Avenue Bldg., Seattle, Wash. WHAT'S THE REASON? The political columnists are having quite a time trying to explain the recent renomination of Rep. Hamilton Fish by the Republican voters of New York’s 29th Congressional District. Roosevelt sought to defeat Fish in 1938 and didn’t get very far. Both Wendell Willkie and Republican Presidential nominee Thomas E. Dewey sought this vear to defeat the wily “Ham” and Fish won handily. | Dewey came out openly to attack Fish, Willkie offered to defend a playwright who had attacked Fish and who was to be sued by Fish for libel. The experts attribute Fish’s victory mainly to one factol “Traditionally (as one writer put it) American | voters resent outside interference in local elections.” there.

Knighthood (Washington Evening Star) An official British military photograph widely circulated in the press shows King George VI in the act of conferring knighthood upon General Oliver Leese, commander of his Eighth Army in Italy. The picture represents the two men in summer campaign uniforms, the officer kneeling before his sovereign to receive the accolade. It is the simpler mode of per- forming the ceremony that thus is exhibited. Accor ing to this ritual, explains the Encyclopaedia Britan- nica, “a number of knights were made before and after almost every battle between the eleventh and the sixteenth centuries.” Segar, garter king of arms in Queen Elizabeth's reign, describes the rite in the | words: He that is to be made a knight is stricken by the prince with a sword drawn upon his back or shoulder, the prince saying, “Soys Chevalier,” and in times past was added, “Saint George.” And when the knight rises the prince sayeth, “Avencez.” The solemnities which were invoked “when the complete procedure was observed” were “very dif- ferent.” John Selden, the acknowledged master of the Antiquarian Society, declares that “in the elder time” there were “circumstances of two kind: especially, which we may call ‘courtly’ and ‘sacred The former were characterized by feasts, the giving of robes, arms, spurs and the like; the latter by holy devotions “and what else was used in the church at ; or before the receiving of the dignity.” Strangely enough as it may seem, the granting of knighthood is not an exclusive privilege of royalty. King George in the tableau with Sir Oliver is acting as “the chief of the army” rather than as head of the state. But the code of chivalry sets forth that practically any ‘“valiant knight” may bestow the accolade. A case in point is that of King Francis I| |of France, aged only twenty-one, honored on the | | bloody field of Marignano in Italy, September 14, 1515, by the hand of Pierre Terrail, Seigneur de Bayard, “le | bon chevalier san pour et sans reproche,” then forty- | two years old and the most deservedly famous soldier H in Europe.

The cruiser Richmond was expected to reach the men the following day and repairs were to be made to the planes. Despite the rain, Alaskan sourdoughs under the auspices of the Alaska-Yukon Pioneer Lodge No. 1, celebrated “Discovery Day” the previous day with a picnic at Woodland Park in Seattle. Strawberry Point’s display of grain and vegetables at the Southeast Alaska Fair scheduled for September 17, was to be one of the most complete and finest ever assembled from any district in Alaska, according to A. F. Parker, who with his father and brother had pioneered the agricultural industry in that section. Miss Florence Casey, who had been attending the Univesity of Idaho, at Moscow, Idaho, arrived here and surprised her parents as well as her friends. She planned to visit here briefly and then return South to resume her studies. Miss Etolin Campen was to return to Juneau on the George, Jr., after spending some time at Windham as the guest of Mrs. Yates. Glenn Carrington, of the Fuller Paint Company, arrived on the North- western from the South and was a guest at the Gastineau Hotel. ‘Weather report: High, 52; low 43; cloudy. o i Daily Lessons in English % .
