The new designation for the Ski Trail commem- orates the name of the late Dan Moller, who laid out the original trail. Mr. Moller passed away September 19 at his home in Sitka after a long illness.

PRESS of skiing in Southeast Alaska. He was an excellent skier and an able and patient teacher. It was he who donated the Moller Cup for which Juneau skiers compete each season. The Forest Service has approved the request of the Juneau Ski Club and announces that the nams “Moller Trail” will be placed on direction signs along the trail route and will be included on the new Tongass National Forest map, now in preparation. It is appropriate that Dan Moller’s contribution to his chosen sport be recognized. The growing popu- larity of skiing in the Juneau area is a constant tribute to his effort. - President Vice-President Managing Editor Business Manager Second Class Matter. for $1.50 per month: , $15.00 Club and the United States Forest Service in honoring the name of this great sportsman. local news published EED BEDS OF SOCIALISM Recommended reading for all Americans—and es- peciaily Alaskans—is the second in the series of “Seed Beds of Socialism” articles which appears in the October issue of Nation’s Business This illuminating article, complete with facts and figures, tells the story of the biggest bureau of them all—the Department of the Interior. We heartily endorse the action of the Juneau Ski Here is Big Government at its biggest — a single | department employing more than 58,000 people, con- trolling 3443 per cent of the total acreage of the United States and inexorably tightening its grip on the means of livelihood of the American people. This is the story of a single governmental agency whose varied functions include, among others, man- agement of Federal lands, Indian affairs, m geo- logical surveys, fish and wildlife, national parks, oil and gas, the Alaska Railroad, territories and island possessions and the water and electric power of tk nation. This is the department whose three water projects, Grand Coulee, Boulder and ville, built and maintained at the cost of upon millions of tax dollars, have succeeded in bri ing water to less than five million people. This is the department whose Indian boasts two employees for every twenty-five Indians.

The Washing_lon Merry-Go-Round (Continued from Page One) Gannett newspaper chain and asked him to come to New York immed- iately. Gannett was reached on his yacht on Lake Ontario and flew to New York in his private plane for lunch with Aldrich. With him went Carl Hallenauer of the Bausch and Lomb Optical Company. Mean- while, Roy Howard promised to write an editorial in the New York e Dol WERES oS &1l term.” In other words the Wall Street boys, not Tom Dewey, made the first move to entice Hanley out of the running. Publisher Gannett in- cidentally would not go along. Though he lunched with Aldrich at the Chase Bank, he refused to plump for Dewey. Next chapter in this political story was told in the Merry-Go Round on September 8 as follows: “Deweyite pressure on Lt. Gov. Joe Hanley to withdraw from the New York gubernatorial race was so intense Friday night that for a time Hanley lost the use of his one good eye.” ] In his now famous letter to King- sland Macy telling of the financial guarantees made him, Hanley also tells how he is fearful of going blind. “geventy-four years old, Hanley has one glass eye while the other eye is_not strong,” the Merry-Go- Round continued. “Therefore, when subjected to terrific pressure to withdraw in favor of Dewey he lost his sight completely. On the Saturday and Sunday following the visit with Dewey’s friends, Hanley was not able to recognize anyone except by voice. “On Monday sufficient rest had restored his vision. During the conference with Dev 1 friends neither Frank Gannett nor Norman Gould of the Gould Pump Co., wer unable to reach him. It was they who helped to raise the kitty to pay up Hanley's $30,000 debts but even they could not get to their man during the crucia] conference which ‘drafted’ Dewey. Most interesting fact was that Dewey was anything but drafted.” Third chapter was the actual terms of the pay-off to Hanley to run for the U. S. Senate instead of Governor, This was published in the Washington Merry-Go-Round September 13, namely, that Hanley if defeated for the Senate, would be appointed to the New York Thruway Commission at $15,000 and also be made vice president of an oil company at $15,000 annually. “Friends in the Dewey camp have also promised to repay the $30,000 which Kingsland Macy, Frank Gannett and Norman Gould put up to pay off Hanley's debts” quoted W.M.G.R. on September 13. However, the full story of Hanley and Dewey goes back even further, to when Governor Dewey conducted a grand jury investigation of Lt. Gov. Hanley and other Albany leg- islators—then suddenly called off the grand jury, Since then Dewey and Hanley have been friends only on the surface. Since then also Hanley has been struggling Lo pay off his indebtedness. Tha facts were never published in the New York newspapers but here is the account carried in the Merry-Go- Round six years ago—Oct. 31, 1944, “An Albany grand juwy was S, e e e e e e scheduled to probe a charge that|riarch of one of the most divorcing Lieutenant Governor Hanley put |est families in the country and his son on the State payroll and |never heard of anyone getting then drew most of the salary paid ‘ divorce out of sheer, undiluted hap- to his son.
