EVELYN BUTLER BACK FROM SOUTH Dr. Evelyn Butler of the Alaska Native Service has returned to Ju- neau after a two weeks business so- journ in the States. While in ‘Washington, she visited some of the vocational schools attended by Alaska native children but because of the severe storms at the time of her visit, was unable to carry out her original schedule. According to Dr. Butler, 32 chil- dren from the Territory are now attending vocational schools for the deaf and the blind in Salem, Ore- gon; Vancouver, Wash., and several cther locations in the state of Weshinoton because Alaska does not have facilities for these handi- capped youngsters. At present, plans are being prepared for a new veeational school to be erected at Sitka and this will also include col- lege preparatory work. Dr. Butler's immediate concern for the native children attending school in the States is a locational plan for the summer months when classes are not in session. The Native Service hopes to place the children in private homes during {kis time as it is impossible to bring them back to the Territory for their vacation period. ——————————— ALASKA COASTAL FLIES TWO TRIPS, FOURTEEN FARES Alaska Coastal Airlines made two ‘passenger trlpg yesterday, one to Hoonah and Sitka, the other to Tulsequah.

Walker recently returned to his | home in Ketchikan after a trip to Seattle, lasting from November 11 to November 28, in which he made a personal inquiry into the inter- ruption of transportation of freight between Seattle and Alaska. Senator Walker has submitted the following statement regarding his investigation while South: “I left Annette airfield Novem- ber 11 at the request of a group of kusiness people and with the full knrowledge and approval of labor leaders in Ketchikan enroute to Seattle where I registered the same day at the Frye Hotel. “I immediately contacted Com- mander Chester of the United States Coast Guard by telephone at the New Washington Hotel. I had met Ccmmander Chester about three weeks previously at the Ol- ympic Hotel in the presence of Walter Anderes of the Crystal Cy Steers of the Steers esale Agency, and H. B. Crew- son of Carstens Packing Company in Seattle, when the Coast Guard walved certain restrictions allowing small boats to serve Southeast Al- aska. “Commander Chester reported excellent progress in releasing small boats, but agreed with me that they did not even remotely fulfill the needs of the Territory He further stated that the Grom- .met Reefer would probably sail in a few days when the choice of en- gine rocm otficers was settled. The Grommet Reefer did sail for South- west Alaska as a reliet ship, Ridiculous Incongruity “I would like to state that the term relief state as defined in Seattle is a ridiculous incongruity and an insult to the intelligence of Alaska. The word relief is usually asscciated with some form of disaster over which mortals have no control and in no way should be connected with present condi- tions. Relief supplies are defined as food, clothing and medical sup- plies. The economic blood stream of Alaska would dry up very rap- idly, were its needs confined to the supplies coming within the definition of relief. “November 12, through a labor contact I had made in Ketchikan, I arranged to meet the Seattle agent for the Committee for Mari- time Unity. It appeared from what he told me that there were many more things in controversy than the choice of navigating and engine room officers. We had two meetings the same day. I then met with the ship owners and they were just as firm in saying that the only matter in controversy was the choice of the aforementioned officers. They iurther stated that they had five ships ready to sail, namely: the Baranof, North Sea, Alaska, Tongass and Lakina.

Repercussions “The wholesalers in Seattle are in great fear of the possible reper- cussions .of the deplorable tieup as it relates to future business be- tween Alaska and Seattle, and are aware that they may lose forever their preeminence as suppliers for Alaska, that they have occupied for fifty years. They are willing to do almost anything and have already extended credit to Alaska merchants beyond anything pre- viously thought of. “I hold no brief for Seattle, the shipowners, or Seattle business men, but in all fairness they can- not be held accountable for the mtolerable conditions that exist in shipping, nor can Alaskans be ex- pected to suffer in order to help seattle interesis, even if these in- terests are blameless for our pres- ent troubles.
