WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. g. (By l WA.S) - One of the Washington

 Because of recommendation by the Department of Justice on Oc- tober 3, President Hoover appoint ed Leroy M Sullivan, of Cordova,
 as District Attorney for the Second Division, with headquarters at
 Nome, to fill the vacancy now ex- isting there. It is understood that the new appointee will reach Nome to assume his new duties in short time. Soon after Mr. Sullivan reached Alaska he was given a po- SitiOn as law in the office of Judge Wickersham at Juneau. When the office of Auditor was created in May, 1929, and Cash Cole was elected to that post by the Legisla-
 ture, Mir. Sullivan was appointed chief clerk and legal adviser. About a year ago when Clyde Ellis re- signed as Assistant District Attor- ney in the Third Division, MT. Sul- livan was appointed to succeed him. He now advances another step be- cause of his indefatigable energy in successfully performing the du- ties of his respective posts and high probity of character that has won him many friends and admir- CTS.
 Several AlaSkanS have made short visits to Washington during the past week. o. M. Carter, of Ketchikan, joined his wife here and together they drove to New York
 and Boston, expecting soon to drive across the continent to Seat tie, to take the steamer north. E. A. Rasmussen, of Cordova, was here for two days and during that time paid his respects to the Pres
 ldent, Secretary Wilbur and the Department of Justice. He is the president of the Bank of Alaska at Anchorage, Cordova, Skagway and
 Wrangell. Sone of his northern friends are insisting that he be- come a candidate for Republican National Committeeman. Yester- day E. w. Griffin, merchant and
 president of the Kodiak Chamber ot Commerce, departed for Chica- go, after coming from New York and spending four days in this city. He expects to return to Kodiak in November. Charles w. Hawkes. worth, acting chief of the Alaska division, Bureau of Indian Affairs, IS being detained here in assisting
 to prepare the annual budget for his department. Mrs. Hawkesworth accompanied him, and they both expect to start west within a few days.

INDIAN TRADING POST, OLD
TOWN, Okla. Nov. 26.-The true
spirit of Thanksgiving was expressed
in the first Thanksgiving celebra-
ton of the Oklahoma homesteaders
just before the now-famous land
run into the Oklahoma Indian
territory.
That day, back in 1888, was
marked with despair that turned to
JOY through kindness of settlers.
Then came disaster ennobled by
personal sacrifice that will remain
forever in my memory.
went in 1888 to Wichita to or
ganize the "Old Payne Boomers"
and lead them into what then was
known as Oklahoma, an area of
100000 acres in the old Indian
territory.
The Arkansas river was lined with
camps, made up of people from
every state in the Union. Most of
them had met reverse fortune and
had set out for Oklahoma, believing
it was "the land of milk and honey
and big opportunities"
Little Cause for Joy
The proclamation of President
Grover Cleveland calling on all ITO
give thanks on the last day of No
vember for the many blessings be-
slowed upon our people" had been
set out. There was little cause for
rejoicing in the homesteaders'
camps, however.
In our midst was an old parson.
He and his family of six eked out
measley existence from collections.
The youngest child, little girl of 8,
was the mascot of the homesteaders.
We called the preacher "Grandad."
Deluged With Food
The week before Thanksgiving,
"Grandad" preached his most ap-
pealing sermon, urging all to be
present at the Thanksgiving serv-
ices. News Of the service and plight
of the homesteaders had reached
farmers in the surrounding country
side.
The next day, they brought all
kinds of produce-chickens turkeys,
geese and ducks. One brought a
3-year-old steer. Millers donated a
dray load of flour.
"Grandad" called the little girl
to him, asked her to spread the
good news.
Two days before Thanksgiving, a
north wind passed over the country.
causing great suffering with it's cold.
Out of a black cloud in the north
west came forty-mile gale.
Wagons were upset. Tents were
blown down. A deluge of cold rain
followed. Then the sun came out,
shining as brightly as ever.
"Grandad" Alters Sermon
"Grandad's" little girl was miss
ing.
The men going from camp to
camp raising prairie schooner, came
to "GrandadS" wrecked tent. A
dozen stalwart men lifted his COW
cred wagon. Underneath it lay the
body of the little girl. She was
dead.
Thanksgiving day was bright,
sunny and beautiful. Early the
crowds began to arrive bringing
more food for the feast.
"Grandad" arose to deliver his
sermon.
Brothers and sisters" he started
in a quavering voice, the sermon I
prepared for you, can not deliver.
1 can only say: Suffer the little
children to come unto Me and for
bid them not, for such is the King
dom of Heaven

1t was the general thought to first

Since the meeting at Washington,
D. c., I have spent my time In the

large powerful combinations of buy
ers break the terminal markets. on
agricultural products by having their
Western buying offices induce the
shipper to rednca tho price far below
what the markets will stand, in order
to get the cash f. o. b. sale.
IT would take volume to give. all
of the angles of this second problem
that I have mentioned, but upon my
return will be glad to give you as
much information as you can use on
this second point, namely, the danger
to the producer of letting the large
powerful buying interests name tne
price at Shipping point rather tnan
the producers co-operatives provo
ing their own distribution and sell

If the growers allow themselves
to become in large measure depend

buying combinations they will know
verv little about what the markets
will actually stand except what IS
furnished them by such buyers, anu
worst e Ill, they would have no

these f. O. b. buyers.
will be glad to discuss this more

as mentioned above, they will need
