Trouble In Highland Park
We Must Mould The Character of OurFuture Citizens
By John Wood

not be leaders ourselves. but we
can at least show an interest in the
right type OF leadership rid our
selves OF petty jealousles, support
the right people and when be-
comes necessary, get rid OF the
wrong people. II we want a pro-
gram that will work out to the
best advantage OF youth. we must
get together with youth. nd out
what they want and let them be-
come part of the planning. for
We cannot, as adults, perfect a pro-
gram and hand it 10 the younger
people and expect them TO follow
il it has no appeal to them. Neither
youth nor age has the right pro-
gram. but by coming together. it
is possible that they can strike a
happy medium and make plans to-
gether that neither could make
alone.
This is a serious problem that
must be faced not only by the resi-
dents OF Highland Park but by
those in every community. For
our ability to hold the few gains
we are making during this war
period, and our ability TO avoid
trouble during the postwar period
when the earning power Of both
races will be reduced to the de-
gree that each will falsely blame
the other for his predicament, de-
ponds upon. how successfully we
mould the character of the young
people of this generation. And our
success in shaping the lives of fu-
ture citizens depends, in large
measure, upon the kind Of lives
we lead for them to follow,

Ances allegedly created by irrespon'
sible and careless youth OF The com
muniiy Contrary TO popular belief
in Highland Park. there was no
attempt on the part Of the writer to
-brand" the youth Of the COM
munity. for to do so would serve
no good purpose for the community
or the paper in which these articles
are printed. The opinions expressed
In this series we're those Of people
Of the community and were re-
printed in the hope that, once the
cause Of the trouble is known,
proper steps would be taken by
leaders and youth to formulate a
workable program by which further
incidents Of the nature which have
occurred in the past few weeks can
be averted.
The only conclusion that has been
reached by the writer is that the
cause and effect of these unfortunate
incidents have been made clear and
that the only course open to those
who believe that the community
has been given black mark it does
not deserve is 10 get to work on
the youth problem or stand ready
10 take the consequences that are
certain TO follow in the wake Of
continued outbreaks in the COM
munity or on the school grounds.
A summation of the opinions ex-
pressed by church and community
leaders. an advisor at the Highland
Park high school and an instructor
in the same school indicate that the
problem of overcoming further
trouble that is brewing in Highland
Park and every other community
in the country must be solved
Jointly by parents and church and
community leaders. with the school
instructors. of course, playing no
small part in aiding youngsters of
both races to adjust themselves to
conditions resulting from the war.

day is nothing new, for each gen

LARGE TURNOUT
 FOR RED GROSS
 MONDAY DESIRED

On Monday large turnout of women of Gastineau Channel is hoped for at the Red Cross work rooms in the Elks Hall as a ship ment of new material is expected this week, Mrs. J. c. Thomas, Chairman of the production de- partment of the Red Cross said today
 There is a large amount of work to be done in order to fill the quota needed by the Red Cross, Mrs. Thomas said. While some women have been loyally turning out regularly each Monday, Tues day and Thursday, when the work rooms are open, others have come once or twice or not at all. I wish each woman living in the Gastin- eau Channel district could realize that the work of the Red Cross is responsibility that should be personally felt by everyone and that its work is international in scope. Surely, when this is felt each woman living in this area will definitely set aside at least part Of each Red Cross working day each week. Naturally everyone can- not come the full time all three days. but we are open from 10 un- til 4:30 o'clock on Monday, Tues day and Thursday, and it would help immeasurably if each woman of the Channel area would work part of one of the three days each week." Mrs. Thomas said.
 For those who wish to help but cannot be away from their homes work can be taken out, with di- rections furnished. This applies to sewing or knitting.
 During the absence of Mrs. H L. Faulkner, Who with Mrs. Harry Brown, has been in charge of dis tribution of wool and knitting lin- structions, Mrs. w. J. Manthey will be in charge of this work with Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Thomas said.

booklet says. A loW-cost assortment of foods, chosen on the basis of food value, may give better returns in nutrition and health than a more expensive list chosen at ran- dom. Both nutritive value and cost have been considered in working out the diet plans that are sug- gested in this bulletin.
 Families with a limited amount of money to spend for food will find the suggested moderate-cost diet a useful guide to food selec- tion. Families with extremely meager resources will find the minimum- diet helpful in solving their difficult problem Fam lilies with an income sufficient to meet all needs comfortably have more choice in spending. For them, the bulletin suggests liberal diet or a moderate cost adequate diet. Either offers maximum returns in nutrition and health and in pleas ing variety of food from day to day, according to authorities.
 The Office of Indian Affairs and the Territorial Department of Edu- cation are aiding in the circula- tion of Food Facts in other com munities It is suggested that the pamphlet be saved and used as a guide to eating and buying Addi- tional copies may be obtained from the Public Health Nurse or by writing to the Territorial Depart ment of Health, Juneau, Alaska.
