COFFEY Of Irish parentage, Edward Dan Coffey was born on July 15, 1897, in Chelsea, Indian Territory, Ok- lahoma a farming country to which his family had moved after the “Cherokee Strip” had been thrown open to general settlement (Will Rogers claimed Chelsea as his home town). Growing up there and in St. Joseph, Mo, where he went through grammar school, he finished his education in Kansas City. The first World ‘ar tareatended this country when Ed enlisted in the U. S. Aumy in 1917, serving in the Motor Transport. He did not go abroad and returned to work in Kansas City upon his discharge. As manager and salesman for the Harnden Seed Company, he learn- ed much about the marketing of these products. In 1922 he chang- ed locale and was employed by ke Germain Seed Company in Los Angeles, but a sensz of dis- satisfaction with the type of work he had chosen made him restless. Comes To Juneau was about this time that he overheard two oldtimers from Alas- ka discussing the Territory in rath- unflattering terms. When one mede t-e announcement ‘“Alaska was no place for a young man!” trat was the exact place that Ed Coffey decided to go. Landing in Juneau on the steamer Queen, he immediately went to work for the Alaska-Juneau mine. Later he was made Alaskan agent for the Frigidaire Company, and built and operated the Bergmann Dining room in conjunction with the own- er of the Bergmann Hotel, John It Green Wanderlust Monotony seized him. This was too much like settling down — and he had a vast country yet to see. tward he went, visiting the hustling mining camps of Chicha- gof, Kennecott and Fairbanks. Then on to Bristol Bay where h2 took up the life of a fisherman. He, with others, founded the Alaska Resi- dent Fishermen’s Union, and was selected to reprcsent them in their initial 1935 Juneau convention. Marries—Settles Down Returning to Anchorage, it was not long tefore he noticed a popu- lar nurse who worked for the gov- ernment doctor in Palmer. On November 11, 1935, Miss Ruth Kelly and Ed Coffey were united in marriage &t the home of Dr. C. Earl Albrecht in the Matanuska Valley. They resided in 4nchorage where for several years Ed sold real estate and insurance as a side line, fishing in Bristol Bay in the summers. In 1941 he went into business for himself and has con- ducted a real estate and insurance office since that time. Mrs. Coffey has an important job in Anchorage, too . . . rearing young son Daniel who is just seven months old! Senator Coffey’s first interest in «politics came when he acceptad a lf‘mporary job as messenger for the CONVERT TO OIL HEAT RANGE AND FURNACE CONVERSIONS Complete line for conversion or repair on Oil Ranges, Furnaces and Heaters.

House in 1935. The Legislature intrigued him and with his pmctl- cal knowledge of the Torritol was but a step to toss his hut In- to the Democratic ring for Repre-| sentative from the Third Division. He was elected to the House in 1937 and 1939, and to the Senate in 1041, serving continuously since that tim He was chosen President of the Senate in 1945 and in the Special Session of 1946. One of| Alaska's foremost legislators, Sen- ator Coffey has been untiring in his efforts to serve the people of the Territory of Alaska. S PRESIDENT SEEKS LEGISLATION ON SUCCESSION LINE WASHINGTON, Feb. 6—Presi- dent Truman has asked Congress for legislation which wouid place Republican Speaker Joe Martin first in line of succession to the Presi- dency. The President, in a lotter to Martin, and Senator Vandenberg (R-Mich), President Pro-tem of the Sen. renewed his appeal for a cha in the traditional line of succession. Secretary of State George C. Marshall currently would advance to the White House if a vacancy should occur prior to the 1948 elec- tions. Mr. Truman'’s first proposal that the Speaker of the House be put n line after the Vice President was made shortly after he succesded Franklin D. Roosevelt. It was directed to a Congress ontrolled by his own Democratic and would have made form- r Speaker Sam Rayburn Presi- dent in the event of his own in- pacitation. Mr. Truman wrote: “I sajd then, and I repeat now, that in a democracy the President hovld not have the power to nom- inate his immediate successor.” DAN CUPID SHY IN JUNEAU LAST MONTH Dan Cupid was conspicuous by his absence last month in the U. S. Commissioner’s office. An all-time low in wedding bell events broke records for the past ten years, ac- cording to reports by Judge Felix Gray, who was not called upon to perform one marriage during Jan- uary. Only six marriages took place throughout the city since the start of the new year. However, the year of 1946 broke all previous records with a total of 166 marriages, 78 of this number performed by Judge Gray. So pro- bably the little lad with the hearts and arrows was just taking a well- earned furlough last month with bigger and better plans for Febru- ary. ca e LUCIDOR SAILS Lucidor, Northland Transporta- tien Company freighter, sailed from Juneau for Petersburg at 11:30 last night. She loaded a total of 625,- 000 pounds, or 15 carloads of fro- zen salmon, black cod and halibut here. From Petersburg the Lucidor will go to Prince Rupert, B. C,, to discharge part of her cargo, and continue to Seattle with the re- mainder.

SEWARD STREET ‘MORE FACILITIES . REQUIRED FOR ALASKA DEFENSE AnchoragTAHorney (laims Railroad Shaky, | Airfields Inadequate SEATTLE, Feb. 6.—Alaska now is “first only,” Clyde R. Ellis, Anchorage at terney and member of the Ameri- can Legion’s national defense com-| here af-| mittee, told interviewers ter he attended a meeting of the committee in Washington, D. C. “The Alaska Rallroad, which is, vital to the defense of the Terri-' tory, is in a bad state of repair,” Ellis sald. “Highways facilit are whelly inadequate for its deferse, and a pipeline from the coast to the interfor of Alaska is sorely needed. marine is entirely inadequate transport personnel and supplies for the defense of the Territory.” Ellis said the Legion committee adopted a resolution demanding that the government improve and maintain adequate railroads, high- ways, port facilities and the mer- chant marine, and that a pipeline be constructed. It also urged con- struction of “adequate airfields” in Alaska as government projects without matching funds by Alaska communities. “Right at Anchorage,” Ellis said, “we have an exampls of how badly civil aviation needs Federal aid. Commercial airlires have been land- ing at Elmendorf Field, the Army Base, but the Army wants them to discontinue use of the field, but Anchorage’s civil field is wholly in- adequate for use by such planes.” Ellis said an acequate airport would cost $10,000,000, and that Anchorage was unable to provide matching funds. “Because civil av- jation occupies an important posi- tion in national defense,” he added, feel that the government should finance the tuilding of such fields.” “we .- CIVIL SERVICE EXAMINATIONS The United States Civil Servicz Commission announces an examina- tion for Engineer at the P-1 grade $2,644 a year, to fiil vacancies the Bureau of Reclamation through- out the following states: Washington, Californi Arizona, Nevada, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, North Dakota, South Dakota, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas.
