LET'S TALK ABOUT OURSELVES

National Newspaper Week is being celebrated throughout the nation Oe- tober l to s.
 Fifty-one weeks of the year your local newspaper hammers on needs and methods of betterment for it's community and national govern ment. It can be pardoned if il takes one week for self-publicizing During that week newspapers Of the nation are inviting criticism of its readers-whieh will probably fall, by the galley-full back into editors laps. The Sentinel always has in- vited cooperation of it's readers, whether it be criticism or otherwise.
 It would be a strange world without newspapers.
 Invention of the printing press in the middle ages stimulated mems minds. Thousands, who could not read, sought learning in order to decipher the crude lettering of those first words of type. With reading and education mems viewpoints broadened until the day when thinking men who read began form ing their own opinions and the press was first and foremost in paving the way for mans right to think as he pleased.
 The press of the nation belongs to the people It is the duty of ey- cry newspaper to present the views of the majority of the people to the community It is the duty of every newspaper to truthfully convey to it's readers what governmental heads are doing and how well they are carrying out the peoples wishes.
 Now, probably, more than ever in tbis time of national emergency, a newspapers value is emphasized. In news and editorial columns it boosts sale of defense bonds and stamps it explains the selective service act and aids in it's administration; it assists in building up home defense and informs the people what is be- ing done for defense of their coun- try From banner lines which tell OI lue Siuh1uS Ol q AiOOpSAAp lO lAS least item seeking a home for a stray kitten, your newspaper strives to serve it's community. Churches clubs, schools and other cultural or gani2ations are publicized through it's columns. It does these things week after week, year after year without blare of trumpets, not ex- pecting or seeking commendation. To reporter and editor alike, it's all in a days work.
 Today the American press is one of the few really free organs of ex- pression left in a topsy-turvy world The only reward it asks. for con- tinued service, is to remain free. Press organizations are fighting cen sorship because they believe that Democracy's most potent weapon against all-out totalitarian warfare is all-out truth. Their attitude is let's build our defenses, our planes

After the first season of eoordin- ated enforcement of the Fish and Wildlife Service. two steps aimed toward more effective enforcement are being considered by the depart ment and may be incorporated into the new fisheries act which will be drafted this winter. They are seizure of gear when a vioaitOr is appre- hended and revocation Of license. Basis for the proposed action is failure to get adequate penalty to deter offenders under the present law. according 10 officials.

There fore. they feel more drastic penal ties must be written into the new act if it is to have the desired ef- feet While seizure of gear prior to actual conviction has had stiff Op- position in the past as too drastic as it eliminates a means of liyeli- hood in the short season when fish ing is possible Fisheries officials. however, declare the number of vio- lators is very small compared with the large number of legal fishermen and therefore the penalty cannot be too drastic as a protection to those who fish legally.

 Editor. Wrangell Sentinel Wrangell, Alaska.
 Dear Sir:
 We were most happy to receive our copy of the "Fishermens Edi- tion" of the Sentinel, under date of August 29th. which We are inclined to believe was sent to us through the good offices of our very dear friend AIr Al Cramer. and wish to thank you
 So thoroughly did We enjoy this splendid edition. that should we have omitted expressing this fact to you in a few lines. likewise compli- menting you personally upon your craftsmanship as a journalist-in- deed the edition was superlatively fine. and at the same time to con gratulate you as we'll as the whole of WrangelIs worthy citizenry up on it's so auspiciously unpreceden- ted salmon-catch as it had the pre- sent season, and to wish you many more to come. the completeness of the enjoyment in our "Fishermen's Edition" would somehow have seem ed to lack just a bit.
 Thus. accept of Us the assurance of all our blessings.
 Yours very sincerely.
 Mr and Mrs. Buel Gabbert.
