CA Radio-Beam Station at Nome Is d

Completion of the installation of the radio-beam station by the Civil Aeronautics Authority at Nome brings to mind that it wasn't so many years ago when Nome didn't even have landing field.
 J H Washburn of the CAA who had charge of the installation here since early fall is leaving Nome Wednesday following com pletion of the station. He will be followed sometime before spring by official testers of the beam who will conduct tests and place the station in active operation. It is understood that one or two planes have contacted the beam during its tuning days and have found that it performs wonder fully. When placed in full opera ton, planes flying into Nome will depend on it's directional power in bringing them to the airport. It wasn't very many years ago when Noel Wien now head of the Wien Alaska Airlines and his late brother Ralph Wien brought a large Fohker monoplane to Nome and landed at Fort Davis on the sandspit.
 Those were the days when there was no organized system of weather reports for airplanes nor were there properly equipped air-fields for landing of aircraft in this section. Sandbars, splits, level spots on tailing-piles were utilized with a prayer.
 Today Alaska's systems of fields and airports, it's weather reporting system, communica- tions, and now radio-beam flying have brought the airplane to a highly scientific means of trans portation with the growth of air safety measures for the protec- ton of the travelling puplic and the operators.

Taking No Chances

It was no gesture on the part of Gov Raymond E. Baldwin Saturday night when he told Republicans gathered for the annual Mckinley Association din ner that the party wanted and neded National Committeeman Pryor, National CommitteeWoman Katherine Byrne, and State Chairman Benjamin E. Harwood more than ever this year. MT. Pryor has already announced his intentions of re- signing; the others are also believed to be ready to give up their positions. Such wholesale shift in party organization might have a demoralizing effect on the outcome of the voting next November, all good Republicans well know.
 No one knows better than the elected official the value of good organization, And when an organization has proved it's value by victory at the polls these same officials don't want to see such changes take place as might upset their chances of duplication at the polls. It might be taken as good indication that Gov Bald win will be a candidate to succeed him. self this fall when he made such strong plea for retention of Miss Byrne and Messrs Hardwood and Pryor
 By the same token you'll find the smart members of the Democratic party throughout the state urging retention of Chairman J. Francis Smith who also contemplates resigning the office that he has held successfully for quite some few years now, Although the Democrats went down to defeat in 1888 most of them as cribe it to the fact that the huge Nc Levy vote raised havoc with the party vote and enabled the Republicans to elect a minority candidate. Democrats and Re publicans alike recognize the need of organized efforts to elect candidates, re- gardless of their individual ability. And organized efforts demand energetic lead erShip.

A Thought for Today
The War of Words

George Bernard Shaw, who has fol many years spoofed his own people as no mere outsider has dared to spool them, hay character who, temporarily dis com1Ited, splutters. No Englishman is every fairly beaten!" So it seems to be with the war of propaganda which to date has been perhaps more important in Europe than the war on the Western Front The English have been beaten
 - but not fairly beaten. And this time there does seem something unfair about the contest.
 Radio interchanges between England and Germany have been constant, each country trying to beat down the morale of soldier and civilian behind the others lines. London papers have forthrightly admitted that thus far on the battlefield of propaganda Britain has been "decis- ively beaten" and that Goebbels has had a walkaWay. But the odds really are unfair. In Germany, every effort is made to keep the people from listening to the French or British broadcasts. The secret listener, caught in the heinous crime of listening to the broadcast of his choice, may even have ris head shorn off by that German revival of Dr, Guillotine's in genious invention.
 The British can't do that. In a war in which they have announced that free dom is one of their chief objectives it would be most embarrassing to begin the fight by sacrificing the objective. So the only defense is to laugh off the German radio barrage that daily blankets the British Isles. That has not always been successful The British papers them selves comment on the extent to which the German broadcasts have appealed to the poorer and less fortunate of the Brit ish people, saying, Look, you are being used as sacrifices to preserve a situation in which you are miserabl, and have no stake" To the extent that the listener is biserable and has no stake, this has been effective, It is reflected in growing movement for peace, compromise, settle ment, and it is disturbing to British au thority.
 The Germans have baited their broad casts with personal messages from Brit ish prisoners, who are put on the air to reasSure British relatives that they are all right. What British family, knowing that in this way they may get first word of loved ones safety, will fail to listen in on the German stations? It is hard, and there is no place to put ones faith in such a conflict but in the old certainty that truth will eventually prevail, and that sensible people, though misled perhaps for time, will eventually cleave to truth.

In Today's Mail

insisted on batting for Charlie Eos ter, busted purchasing agent in the controllers office not even bat boy in the party previous to that. That strike-out conclusively proves that J. Warren might be able to make the potato, string bean, and cauli- flower league but this league is too big for him.
 Feeble attempts of spreading propaganda on the part of some of Warren's stooges that the party needs Warren now more than ever is lot of bunk. Republicans in Waterbury that want real live party know that J. Warren Upson had a good tryout for the team and didn't make the grade. They all agree he is a nice fellow and honest and that about 10 years ago he ar- rived in Waterbury with his felt boots and straw hat on and gradu- ated into the spats, silk hat and the tails class but he still can't bat good enough for this league. Fur thermore they know that if he sells the party Vernon Hall to take his place the Republican Party will con- tinue to be in last place in Water bury. Vernon has two strikes on him to begin with regardless of the fact that E. Christy Erk did everything he could but kiss Vernon in his radio harangue Thursday evening.
 When Warren goes he should take Vernon with him and if the rubber stamps on the Town Committee team don't know enough to resign for the benefit of the party the party should force them to resign by appointing new members next month. Members that can really bat that ball is what the Republican party team needs.
 If there is anyone that does not agree with me let them write to Judge Landis and ask him if team without good batters on it ever won pennant.
 ONLY AN OBSERVER
The Waterbury Democrat., 1940-04-02

the public reaction to the test resumption will be such as to bring out an immense number of automobiles on the opening day, but eventually we believe that mo toristS will whole-heartedly subscribe to the plan.
 You can argue the merits and demerits of the testing lanes for days and still be unconvinced, but the fact remains that more and more states are adopting them as means of cutting down on highway accidents and promoting the idea Of safety among drivers. It doesn't hurt any car owner to have his car tested for lights, brakes, and windshield wiper at least twice a year. Failure of these acceS- SorieS to work at the proper time might be the cause of a serious acident. We should always consider this angle.
 It is to be hoped that when the real rush of motorists to have their cars test ed starts there will be sufficient inSpec- tors on hand locally to handle the cars rapidly. That has been a complaint in the past. We hope it has been removed now. Also We are glad to know that there will be an opportunity for many motorists to get their cars tested during the even- ing. A good many people have such work ing hours that they never personally could get their car down to the lanes without hiring somebody else to do it for them All in all more efficiency at the lanes will kill off any resentment over inconvenience.

will be Ali Landon and National Chairman John Hamilton.
 Also, you can safely risk your money that Hamilton, despite this, is all washed up for another term as Kansas National Committee man. He'll be on the delegation but the curtain has been rung down on his National Committee membership.
 And the man who dropped it was Ali Landon. who made Ham ilton both National Committee man and National Chairman.
 Personally still friends, they have politically drifted far apart since Hamilton, following the 1886 campaign, became intimate with Hoover and the Eastern party mOguls. To avoid a fac tiOnal row LandOn forces made place for Hamilton on the dele gatiOn, but they made it clear he was through as National Com mitteeman.
 Slated for the job is Lester Me- Coy, close friend of Landon's and member of the State Republican Central Committee. Mccoy was

GOOD LETTERS NEEDED ON LOCAL G. o. P. TEAM,
 CLAIMS WRITER
Editor, Waterbury Democrat:

Editor, Waterbury Democrat;
 A resume of events leading up to the present condition of the Repub- lican party in Waterbury shows plainly that J. Warren Upson is not major league talent and there is nothing left for the party to do, but farm him cut to a minor league, Branford preferable, because he must be acquainted with all the boys from there, as that is his home town, and most likely they will let him pitch, catch, play in the field with plough or anything he wants to. In looking over the records Upson has been up at bat a number of times and he struck out every time except once. That was when Wm. J. Pape was pitching and he allowed Warren to hit safely into the posi- tion of secretary of the election laws commission which pays a tidy little sum yearly to Warren. Some people in the know claim it amounts to $2,500 year. It mustn't say much about that, though, as it is a
 
 lican party know about it.
 When he was batting for the posi- tion of congressman in the fifth dis trict Joe Smith struck him out with three pitched balls and the bases were loaded for Warren. The next time up the party let Colonel Roy E. Rice bat for Warren, but they claim Warren wouldn't let Roy use his bat, so Roy had to use brass billet from Scovill's casting shop to bat with and Smith struck him out after he made a couple of fouls which for a time looked like hits Next time up Warren went to the bat for John M. Burrall. Most of the boys figured that Johnnie was out of condition after his strenuous campaign in the manufacturing league which proved correct and Warren struck out again. The next time Warren wanted to get up to the plate and bat, John J. Bergin Warren's outspoken Irish Nemisis said nothing doing.
 George Culhane is batting this ClIIle, SO WdTTGu d1CCT IIlACdCC1lAAIS to pick up his glove and bat finally got on base with the assistance ot Mortimer J. Calvin, John Bergn and George Mitchell. Next Warren attempted to bat for the whole Re- publican Town Committee against their wishes and he succeeded with the assistance of Albert J. Taller the only high-salaried man on the Republican team. Between the two of them, they made foul ball when they changed the rules of the Republican party. Because some oi the boys didn't like that play War ren released good players on the team like Mortimer J. Calvin, Frank Varanelli, Frank Rossi, John J. Ber- gin and few more.
 The strike-out of J. Warren'S most remembered by the faithful Republican fans, was when he re- fused to let Patsy Perriello bat when Patsy was leading the team in home runs and runs batted in. Warren
