Mr. Sharnbroieh said By going over the top by such a large margin this year MT Sharn- broich added that it showed plain ly Wrangel's appreciation for the fine work the Red Cross in doing for the boys in the services.
 As usual, this year Wrangen In stitute came through with a won derful response. A total of S423.70 as given by the faculty and students of the Institute. Burnett Inlet sub scribed $53.65. With a few excep- tions, the balance of the donations were from WrangeI citizens.
 Due to the large list of contrib utors this year, the names cannot be published. Any person desiring to see the list, however, can do so by contracting Mrs. E. NJ Campbell, Secretary of the local chapter.

He told a press conference that
whereas California, Oregon ana
Washington had heretofore SHOWN
disinterest in problems apart from
those typical of the coastal area
they are now wooing cooperation
from some of the nearby western
states. The interest of all who COM
prise this group in such matters as
land reclamation, public power ana
anti-monoply legislation in impor-
tant committees. They have observ-
ed that the chairmanships of many
of these committees are held by
poll-tax congressman due to senlo-
rity.
TO MAKE DEMAND
"If legislation which the west is
vitality interested in doesn't get
prompt attention in congress, and
if it is as a result of southern con-
troll" McWilliams declared, the
west is going to demand that some
thing be done about the poll tax
and Whatever else should be done
about such control and its modi-
ficatiOn.
Discussing the tremendous in
f1ux of war workers to the coast,
particularly among Negroes, Nc
Williams sees the three coastal
states becoming "o,r racial frontier
in the United States" He offered
two reasons: first, the postwar
period will see it as the one region
in which all important racial groups
are to be found-Negroes Indians,
Chinese = and Japanese - Ameri-
cans, Filipinos and Mexicans; Sec
ond, since the west coast states are
relatively new and growing, there
is the possibility for new pattern
of race rela tions developing
and incentives to do so. Already,
every commendable" effort has been
made in Seattle, San Francisco and
Los Angeles, he said. Racist groups,
he added, will continue TO fight non
whites, however.
HOUSING ACUTE
The author of Brothers Under
the Skin" estimated that IS per-
cent of the Negro immigrants to
the west will remain after the war,
many of whom have better educa-
tions that had been suspected, he
said. But the housing situation "has
been the most acute problem of

of the way, however, Black remains
the only obstacle to Jacobs ambi-
lions to control Louis. Accord
to a good source, Jacobs has
advanced large sums of money
