He is the direc- tor of the Alaska Merit System. outlined many of at came in for regu- n rent and price control to pure food and pollution control. E said that Alaskans especially | ited regulations, that many of had come here to avoid restrictions, but as the coun- led up, more and more It would be imposed. He also rointed out the necessity of con- trols and stated, “It seems to be the price we are paying for our civilization.” “Granting that we must have regulations, and thousands of per- sons to enforce them, it becomes necessary to have competent, train- ed persons to do it,” he said. “For persons who can enforce rules iairly and impartially, the program necessitates a program similar to the Merit System to avoid appoint- ments because of pull or favorit-| ism.” It was decided to entertain the Juneay High Basketball team at the regular meeting next Monday. Bill Ray reported- on the Fourth| of July committee and called a| meeting of the group for 7:30 p.m. Wednesday. Carl Rusher requested assist- ance in getting materials for mak- ing a new slide for the Douglas| bathing beach. Lloyd Clark of Salem, Ore. was a guest. William A. Wood arranged for today’s program.

In Germany, a Nazi-like political group — the Socialist Rich party — drew almost 400,000 votes in Lower Saxony clections. This was startling success for a party so much like the Nazis the Federal Government is tryine to outlaw it. It is led by for- me pporters of Adolf Hitler. The party ked fourth with the es- tablished Socialists and Christian Democrats leading the counting. ner, 58, a Conservative representing the Catholic people’s party, and Dr. Theodore Keerner, 78, Socialist Lord Mayor of Vienna, will oppose each other in a runoff election for the presidency. Bolivia — Victor Paz Estenssoro, an exiled leader of Bolivia's working classes, held a commanding lead in the presidential race. He had campaigned from Buenos Aires with Communist support. But it appeared doubtful he would get the majority needed to elect him outright and congress may have to pick a winner from the three top candidates on August 6. Harold A. (Bud) Schultz, son of Mr. and Mrs, Harold Schultz, has been notified by the U. S. Coast Guard that he ranks 197 in exam- inations given here last tebrunry for the Coast Guard Academy ap- pointments.

Schultz is a senior in the Juneau High school, has participated in all musical activities such as chorus, band, quartet, is editor of the J.Bird and is a member of the Junior Toastmasters. Since taking the Coast Guard ex- aminations he has received an offer of a musical scholarship at Central Washington College at Ellensburg.
