BARNES IS y Days NON-PARTISANIN HER CAMPAIGNING, Candidate Now in Juneauf | Accompanied by Her | Sister from Texas | i | i Doris Barnes, former mayor of .Wmngell led her legislative ticket when she ran for the House of Rep- resentatives last year, but she is completely non-partisan as far as is concerned her job as President of | the Alaska Federation of Women's | | Clubs. | Though she is a candidate for re- | election to the House of Represen- | vention of the International Fed-jurity in chemical, atomic or germ | tatives on the Republican ticket, | Mrs. Barnes is in Juneau at presem as head of the Alaska Fyderation of | | Women’s Clubs. She was guest of | honor at a tea given Wednesday by | the Juneau Woman'’s Club and guest, | too, of the Woman's Club in Skag- way at tea Sunday afternoon. | As President of the Alaska Fed- |eration of Women’s Clubs, Mrs. | Barnes was the only delegate from | Alaska at the International Federa- tion of Women’s Clubs convention in Boston during the first week in July. | Seven million women from nearly every country in the world were rep- | resented at the Boston canclave ' which had as its theme, “World Co- operation or Chaos.” One of the principal speakers at the convention, Mrs. Barnes said, was Warren B. Austin, United States representative to the United Na- tions. So important to Mrs. Barnes among the points Mr. Austin made in his talk to the assembly of wo- men that she made note of it, was this message, “It is clear that the will to dominate is modified by the will to survive and can be restrained by united security measures. Our future depends upon how well the people understand that our civiliza- tion is at stake. The will to be free can survive only by the enlightened cooperation for security—all for one in defense and all for one in re- moval of causes of war.” | Another outstanding speaker at |the convention was Ruth Bryan 1Rhode who spoke on ‘World Educa- tion. “An excellent speaker and very attractive, Mrs. Rhode impressed upon us the importance of knowledge and understanding of different countries and different people among the peoples of the world,” | Mrs. Barnes said. At an international night, dele- gates from many foreign countries, from China, France, Sweden, Nor- way and Czechoslovakia, all in cos- | tume spoke to the convention in English. | Sister Interesting | Here, during the interview yes- | terday in Mrs. Barnes room at the | Baranof hotel, her sister, Mrs. John | Elliott of Austin, Texas, who is trav- | eling with her, joined the conversa- | | tion because the universal use of | \Engmh and an equally widespread |use of French or Spanish or othcr\ ‘Iormgn language is a hobby mth\ } Mrs. Elliott and her husband. Mr. Elliott, prominent geologist, spent | many years in South American countries developing oil fields and ‘both he and Mrs. Elliott have not | only studied Spanish themselves but | have advocated the introduction of Spanish and other foreign lan- guages in the primary grades in our American schools. “There are so many reasons for this . . . the understanding of our | | different countries in America from | | a cultural and a business standpoint | and the greater enjoyment of travel Lxhrnadv Nearly every other country eaches English. It seems important to us that our schools should gives a foreign language choice in the [ 1ower grades when children can learn easily,” Mrs. Elliott said. Mrs. Elliott, who says that she is “just a housewife,” was in Banff with her husband when, because she was so near Alaska, she decided to make the trip to Wrangell to visit her sister. She had not been in Alaska for more than 20 years and in that time finds Alaska has de- veloped tremendously. With Mrs. Barnes, Mrs. Elliott |made the trip to Skagway and to Whitehorse. They returned to Ju=- neau on the Princess Louise and will sail for Wrangell on the Alaska. At Boston Convention | On her trip to Boston for the con- eration of Women’s Clubs, Mrs. Barnes was accompanied by her daughter, Miss Dorianne Barnes, formerly of Juneau and now a Se- attle resident. While her mother at- tended convention meetings that lasted long into the night, Miss Barnes went to concerts—the Bos- | ton Pops—and did the sight-seeing for the family. They visited Mrs. Barnes' son, Frank, Stanford grad- uate, in Syracuse, N.Y., where he is sales manager of the television and broadcast equipment division of General Electric Company. With Mr. Barnes and his wife and daughter, they drove to Montreal for three days, then south through the lake counties of New York state. Before returning west they at- tended a United Nations meeting at Lake Success. A report of the United States trusteeship of the Pacific Islands was on the agenda of the day and Mrs. Barnes heard Frances Bowes Sayer and Admiral Fiske speak. “Though it was just before the Korean war started, no- thing that was said gave any indi- cation that a war was impending,” Mrs. Barnes said. Among the com- ments by representatives of other nations, following the report, Mrs. Barnes mentioned the talk of the Dominican Republic’s representa- tive, “a woman, who spoke in French.” All the other talks wdre in English, Mrs. Barnes commented But the reference to the universal juse of English and to the French of the D.R. representative again lead to conversation about a more gen- eral study in our schools of foreign languages. Has Hobby “If American youngsters could start learning Spanish or French or any other foreign language in gre mar schools, it would even lead to an international unde: tanding that is difficult now,” Mrs. Elliott said, pursuing her “hobby.” And foreign language is a hobby with the Elliott family. “Next to golf,” Mrs. Elliott said. A member of the national hole-in-one organi- zation, Mrs. Elliott would like to play Juneau’s famous “million dollar course” on the old Alaska Gastineau tailings. About languages—Spanish is her second language, “and I was nearly 40 when I started to learn Spanish.” { Mrs. Elliott said. Spanish radio pro- grams, books in Spanish transla- tions and, when her speaking Span- ish needs polishing, another trip to Mexico—these are the methods Mrs. Elliott uses to keep her foreign language. “But it would have been| so much easier if I had learned my | Spanish in grammar school.” i To get back to Mrs. Barnes and | her affiliation with the Aladsa Fed- eration of Women's Clubs: She; brought back to the clubs the greet- | ings of the new General Federatic nf President, Dorothy Houghton, un«'ll this thought, “thatwe mqy each in’ | Try it and see for yourself why Hills Bros, Cofiee makes—and keeps—friends!

For readiness in case of emerg-; ency guard duty, Cadet Commander Neil Fritchman talked on that subject, managing to make it hi- larious while yet stressing the im- portance of this dull but essential task in time of crisis. Operations Officer Charles E.{ Porter led a discussion of regula- tions concerning use of the L-5 air- craft, These included pilot certif-| ication and responsibility. Marcum assigned the entire group a technical problem for which sol- | utions are to be brought to the| meeting next Wednesday. | The Civil Air Patrol is a nation- al, volunteer organization which is an auxiliary unit of the United } States Air Force.
