each member in the state would pay
about an average of $500 per year, the

Prayers such that will be offered all over the
ton Thanksgiving Day, just as they when that
first little group of grateful colonists offered theirs in
celebration of the first harvest in their land.
Hundreds of harvests, hundreds of Thanksgiving
have passed since then. AS nation at each of these
Thanksgiving observances, we have had much to be
thankful for; each of them saw country little
further down the road of history, land growing in
power, in area, in wealth. and most of ALL the hap
piness and webeing of free people.
Today at this Thanksgiving time, see our country
engaged in tremendous effort that is testing all
capacities for ingenuity, for SKILL for courage and pa
tence. We can be thankful-and with confidence
in the futuretha the past has proven ability to
meet problems and to solve them, and that while our
present position is new one in history it is not with
out precedent in kind and most certainly will yield to
solution by combined efforts of people made in
credbly strong by the blessings of nature and three
centuries of freedom.

 POUR INTO OFFICE
 MARINE M5pE(TION

Many inquiries are being received by the local office of the Board of Marine Inspection and Navigation in regard to the new requirements for licensing operators of such com mercial vessels as carry passengers and freight for hire.
 Old licenses automatically expire on April 24, l941, and to renew them all operators must pass physical examination. Certain operators and all new applicants must also pass a professional test. ~
 : Since the physical examination by an authorized physician of the United States Public Health service works extreme hardship on those operators in out of the way places, arrangements are being made to al. low the examination by any reputable physician. 4
 Professional examinations are to be conducted by the board. Operators may take them in their own locali- ties should the Board make official trips to their vicinity before the h- censes are required. However, many operators to the Westward will be obliged to come to Juneau for ex- aminations since the annual trip to
