RESPONSIBILITY SHIFTED

FLYNN DisOwns Smear Curcu-
lar; Calls 1t Disservice to the
President
Says Negro Groups STUPID
Attack at WILKES Ancestry
Had No Authorization"
To the American public ii APP
pears that the colored people Of
America are of the type who
would associate themselves with
a vile smear upon the candi-
date for President.
Even this fiimsy effort at
excuse is swept away by virtue
of the fact that the materials
contained in this mimeograph-
ed copy referred to by Mr..
Rainey were in large measure,
contained in a printed pamphlet

and which has printed on it
Prepared and Issued by the
Colored Division - Democratic
National Campaign Committee; ,
a piece of literature which even
Mr.. Flynn would not dare deny
the National Committees res
possibility for issuing.
Every colored person and
every fair-minded white Ameri
can who has had contact with
the colored group knows that
such a slur by Mr.. Flynn upon
the colored New Dealers, which
reflects upon the entire race, is
unjustified.
Il believe that the only way
in which such a slur can be
erased is !, not by Mr.. Rainey
making this very thin anc
obviously weak explanation, bur
rather by resigning from hi.
position as Director of the Color
ed Divisional of the Democrat,
National Committee and express
ing his protest against the at
tempt of the Democratic Com
mittee attempting to put S,
black a mark upon the colorec
citizens of America.
This explanation concurre,
in by Mr.. Flynn is a very sorr,
and futile way of taking tn
blame off the colored group. l
makes one believe that when tn,
Democratic National Commit
tee in it's headquarters in tn
Biltmore hotel created a Jim
crow Office for colored work a
331 Madison Avenue, it had il
mind having such physica
division of offices that it woul,
be possible to have smears com,
from this Jimcrow colored ofic,
and thereby give it a chance t.
disavow such vile smears.
Il say with all sincerity tina
if such a situation developed il
the Republican National Com
mittee l would resign as Direct
or of the Colored Division and /
think that under the circumstar
ces Mr.. Rainey would ido {
great service to the coloreC

paign and make an unequivoca
statement generating the color
ed race from this vile smear.

Chamber Would Advertise Alaska On Can Labels

The Cordova Chamber of Com merce discussed at some length recently the possibility of having the labels which adorn the can of the several Alaska seafood products contain reference to the fact that the product contained therein was packed in Alaska.
 Many of the wholesalers and brokers, it was pointed out, do have the words packed in Al aska" or similar phrases includ ed in the working on their labels, but there are still many thou sands of cans of our superior sea products which do not get just credit and identification and as a result the Territory is losing val uable advertising of its principal resources.
 Several suggestions were made of remedies for this situation and the matter was left in the hands of the advertising committee for study and recommendations.

The Nome nugget., 1940-04-29

The principal difficulties in dealing with white owners has been with those living in the States who have had little or no connection with their herds and therefore cannot uderstand why or how there can be a decrease in numbers when Government reports advise that well tended herds can often do double in number every three years. Herds will still show this large increase If well tended on good forage and with no heavy losses by pred ators. While reindeer belong to the caribou famiy they are very little better equipped by nature than sheep to protect themselves from predators or to drift to op en ranges when ice or heavily crusted snow covers all forage. Few sheepmen on the western ranges would expect anything but a total loss of their herds if left intended winter and sum- mer. Reindeer need man as much as men need reindeer.
 The purchase of reindeer took precedence over the purchase of cold storages, abbattoirs, and range improvements but the pro gram has progressed now to point where negotiations are be ing completed for the purchase of this class of equipment"
 MT. Burdick plans to complete all deals by June Is of this year. After making his report to the Secretary of the Interior he will return to his work with the For est Service at Juneau, Alaska.

Reindeer Acquis-
 ition Report
(Contirued From Page One)

wanted to pay for every rein deer acquired from non-native owners. Prices paid ranged from $500 to $500 per head.
 Many facts were brought to light by this intensive census taking of the reindeer popula- tion. On one area the fawn crop of 1889 was less than go. Wolv- es working on the untended herd drove the mothers from the faWn ing grounds with the result that the lawns were abandoned and starved. We'll tended herds show ed fawn crops up to 74% of adult females.
 Many herds have materially decreased in the past two years. A number have been totally des- troyed by wolves, human kill and starvation. The winter of 1938-39 was exceptionally hard on rein deer herds. Heavy icing condi- tions on the ranges during the spring of 1889 caused the death by starvation of thousands of reindeer. On many ranges wolves have killed a large number of reindeer and harried the herds extensively, leaving the remain so that spring losses were heavy. Close herding of the reindeer ing deer in a weakened condition would have prevented much of this loss.
 "The Kivalina herd has decreaS ed from 42,00O counted through thes corrals in 1882 to less than 5000 today. The Kotzebue herd has become totally extinct. It once numbered over 170O0. The Buckland herd has fallen from 12,000 to 2,150, the Lomen-Kotze bue herd from 12,000 to zero in five years. The Koyuk Reindeer Association has 200 reindeer but owes 424 to other owners. The ,Shaktoolik Company has 491 and owes 825. A few years ago they possessed 12,000 head. The Holy Cross and Mountain Village herds are practically non-exist- ant now where a few years ago each had thousands of deer. These are all native owned herds with non-native owners inter- mixed.
 "Three herds only show sub stantial increases. These are the herd on Nunivak Island where no predators exist, the Catholic Mission herd at Akulurak on the lower Kuskokwim which has been well tended and has had no predator problem, and herd at Naknek on Bristol Bay owned by a group of Laplanders. Otherwise herds from Barrow south are showing heavy decreases"
 Much of the lack of attention to their reindeer herds by the natives has been occasioned by the conflict of interest between them and the white owners. To an Eskimo a reindeer is food and skin clothing, to a white it is an investment that should show pro fits AS these profits were non- existent the whites have been un willing or unable to bear the costs of herding and handling the deer. The natives could not be eX pected to care for all deer where ownership has been mixed so con sequently the herds have been pretty much intended and have scattered over the ranges in small punches where they were easy prey to wolves. The pur- chase of non-native owned rein deer by the Government will re move this conflict and thus pave the way for better range manage ment for both native and Govern ment owned deer.
