Here are some suggetsions from the Council: Wear light-colored costumes so you can be seen more easily by motoris! The costume should not be so long that it is a tripping hazard, and it should not be a flimsy material that will burn quickly. A mask should permit clear vision, ahead nnd to rve a few the side, and it should be non-inflammable. Use a battery light in a jack-o'-lantern instead of a candle. Don't dash from between parked cars or roam the streets. Never play tricks which may cause someone to fall, and don't drop or throw things. Soaping the windshield of a car can lead to an accident if the driver has to use the car before he has a chance to clean the glass. Countenance of property or personal damage should be immediately frowned upon. Treats or tricks is all right but caution should be observed even in this playful feature of the night.

E yone but themselves of ulterior Realizing that the vote-getting power of the Gruening machine is on the wane, they want to try and fool the people still more. But in our estimation it won't work. Whatever glossing over may be done and what- asions are made, the fact remains that the Territorial funds are in a sorry mess. This is due :ntirely to the controlled Gruening legislative ma- bine. Minority and independent legislators tried in vain to steam the tide of political banditry. But the jovernor and his man Friday, Attorney Rivers, the Attorney C eral at that time, were on the job every minute drawing up biils, and directing their legislative whips to get them passed. Protests from other attorneys and a few opposing zislators that the bills were full of holes, subject to possible court action, were of no avail. motives. aver with anything.

The city has made many improvements since VJ- Day but none so outstanding as the paving of the main streets. . The city council, contractors, workmen and resi- dents of Kodiak can be proud of their latest accom- plishment. Governor Gruening in a letter to Mayor Lee Bet- tinger and the city said, “The paving of the main streets is a sign of progress that is most gratifying. It Alaka “However I feel that Kodiak ,in particular, has in recent vears made great strides and I want to extend to you and its cifizens my warmest congratulations.” The governor’s letter continues, “It is a potent indication that an increasing number of Americans have come to realize there is no better part of America than Alaska.” We agree, and Kodiak can take some of the credit for making Alaska a bigger and better country in which to live.

Note 1—Phil Murray, testifying before the President’s fact-finding board, invited the steel executives to appear before Congress with him ficers, in a campaign against Brad- ley. Winchell did his best for the Navy during the war, got Kkicked around for his pains, but is still loyal. . .also it was considered no accident that Congressman John McCormack of Boston unloosed an out-of-the-blue blast at General Bradley. The Boston Navy Yard about to feel the effect of Sec tary Johnson's economy move, and some of McCormack’s constituents will lose their jobs. Under The Dome Michigan’s Congressman Lesinski, the Detroit Democrat who staged a isitdown strike against the Aid-To- Education Bill, is already in for re- election trouble. Walter McNary, a jin Wyandotte, Mich.,, shoe retailer, will run against him in the pri- mary. McNary stands strong with labor. . .Despite the need for econ- omy and the full coverage given the Armed Services row by the press associations, the Navy insisted and urge passage of a better old- age pension plan. They refused. Despite this, if Congress had re- mained in session and tackled the entire problem of old-age pen- sions for all old people, not merely those who belong to unions, a pat- tern might have been worked outjon sending small newspapers vol- for the nation. uminous verbatim transcripts of Note 2—Though U.

Nearly all of them are pro- cist. The true progressives, the enlightened toilers for the people, they belong to the party of peace. They speak the voice of the father of all people, J. Stalin. Alas, in the land of the dollar, they are few in number, but their voice is like thunder down the corridors of his- tory. They are few in number because in this land of the dollar, everybody has dollars. It is most unprogres- sive. How can people with dollars in their pockets understand their true interests?
