ANCIENT VEHICLE TO
 LEAVE FOR STATES

'The northern lights have seen strange sights" will doubtless occur to many Seattleites when the Sea Rose pulls into the Puget Sound city soon carrying a 1908 Interna- tional truck in good running con dition. The aged horseless buggy was acquired from Donald Sinclair, Wrangell merchant, and had lain neglected and forgotten for many years in his garage. It was acquired by D. S. Petticrew and his brother Joe, fishermen, when the war brought on the acute shortage of available cars. They put in a little repair work on the oldtimer, and are taking it Outside with them to facilitate getting around in the big city.
 Aboard the Sea Rose, a seiner, will also be Mrs E. s. Petticrew and the two children, Billy a Shirley Hall. The family expects to return next year for the fishing season.

FORRESTAL PREDICTS
 LONG TOUGH FIGHT

WASHINGTON - Navy Secretary James V. Forrestal has reported that the Japs are now able to mass their air power in a comparatively small area, and Hong, hard fight is in prospect"
 He said in a news conference that a year ago the Japs had their air forces spread over an immense Pacific area, but with the capture or naturalization by by-passing of some 50 enemy bases by American forces the Japs have been relieved of their responsibility of supplying them with planes. They mass their air power now, narrowing the the ater of action to the Philippines, China and Japan proper"

 We need far more roads all l trails. Roads are an essential pre- requisite to the development and permanent settlement Of Alaska. We should make every effort to have Alaska included under the Federal Highway act.
 Alaska is fortunate in having as d result of the war a fine sys- 4em of airfields and radio range stations We must now work unit edly for adequate plane services from the United States to make use of these facilities and for increased services within the Territory. AS for our steamship services, we may as well admit that we're starting from scratch.
 Finally, Alaska needs for the coordination and development of our projects, policies and plans for the future an Alaska Development commission. Practically every state in the union and the other terri tories have already set up such an agency. One may be set up by the federal government for Alaska. If this is so, shall do my best to see that the Territorial interest is adequately represented thereon. But it would be still better if the Ter ritory itself moves in that direction and that we get down to the seri- ous business of preparing Alaska for full membership in the family of sovereign states. Let's not al- ways wait for Uncle Sam. He will be with us with generous helping hand. But let's start few things for ourselves by ourselves"

BOSTON, Dec. Is (ANP)-As
strange as it may seem, in Negro

intoxicating liquors and numerous
gambling dens offset most of the
clean recreational and social activ-
tiles, is to be found the Cooper
Community centre, one of the most
publicized and most wholesome
refuge places for women and chill
dren throughout the nation.
Instituted % years ago by the
Methodist women of the New Eng
land conference, a white group,
Cooper centre has been supported
by those women ever since, and for
19 years, Miss Frances Barber, the
white superintendent, shared the
pains and pranks of the young
sters and listened to the woes and
pleasures of the working mothers.
Miss Barber reluctantly retired
from her duties a year ago.
Tel regular members and vol
unteer worked from Wellesley COL
lege form the present teaching
staff of Cooper centre. The three
full-time workers are the social
worker and music teacher, Mrs.
Effie MacKerrow; the director Of
the nursery school, Miss Patricia
Warren; and the superintendent.
Miss Althea Warner and Mrs. Ken
meth Brothers each give a half day
in the nursery school.
While 27 children are at present
