 "The triptYchs started as a re- sult of visit made 10 an Army camp" said Mrs. Morgan in the committees New York headquar- ters recently. T asked what we citizens could do for the soldiers and was told they needed beauty and wanted something wh c h would mean tradition. The subject of their religious services came into the conversation foo. And later. on the way home thought of the triptychs as the answer 10 all those needs.
 That was more than two years ago. Since then we have supplied 300 original triptychs and 200 smaller and less expensive repro ductions for the armed forces. The 300 originals were painted by very fine artists who worked for a nominal sum that barely covered the cost of paints. The committee supplies the triptychs-wood ones for the Army and metal ones for the Navy. And the whole thing is supported by subscription. Army and Navy chaplains let us know their needs and we have a trip tych painted especially for them.

Spirit Of Xmas Shines Afar

Christmas Eve on a United States destroyer, plough in 2 through the ocean. Fifty of Uncle Sam's sailors are gathered in the mess hall, faces scrubbed, hair freshly brushed. The engines throb, the steam pipes hiss, as they kneel for an hour of worship. The room is cold and gray and bare, except for one splash of color at the end of the room-a triptych (altar-piece in three sec tions) standing on a table covered with white cloth. Its panels show a convoy entering the harbor and above hovers the Madonna, holding the Christ child surround ed by angels. AS the flickering candles light it's brilliant reds and blues and gold, the bare little room becomes chapel, filled with

the spirit of Christmas peace. The chaplain concludes his opening prayer and the strong young voices rise in a chant-"Oh Come All Ye Faithful ="
 Many a scene like that will be enacted on Christmas Eve in jun gle, desert and mountain pass-all of them centered around color full portable triptych. Behind those triptychs stands the Citizens Com mittee for the Army and Navy, and behind it woman.
 She is Mrs. Junius Morgan, daughter-in-law of the late Wall Street tycoon, J. P. Morgan. Her husband, a former vice president of J. P. Morgan & Co.,, is now on leave as captain in the Navy.

A survey disclosed that approximately three hundred fifty persons were killed violently. More than half of them were vic tims of auto accidents. Traffic fla talities numbered 176, while at least sixty-one persons died of fires. Violent deaths from miscel- laneous causes accounted for Ill victims.

 Mrs. Morgan is no figure-head president. She always had a deep interest in art and takes a keen interest in each triptych and it's design. She spends a large part of each day in supervising the triptych program in the committee headquarters. This fall she and her committee made special drive to supply a number of fight ing units with triptychs in time for Christmas services. As a result of their work, boys will worship before them on Christmas Eve in United States camps, Germany, Alaskan snoWs, South Sea Islands, Japan, China, and wherever they are located.

 We can cite history as proof l that development is impossible without government. From 1867 until 1884 when the first civil law was provided for Alaska. there was no development. Land could not be owned. Lovers could not be married. The dying man could not will his property to his son with any assurance the son would get 1t. There was no encouragemen for economic development. Alaska is striking example of the need of civil government if economic government is desired. Yet the writer in Whittier. who cares so little for Alaska and wants to keep the lions share of his S3O6.50 month, cannot see why he should contribute five dol lars to the support of the Terri torial government
 We don't know where the writer came from to Alaska, but we dare say that he would be paying a great many taxes if he were to earn S306.50 a month as a waiter in his home state.
 Perhaps he would have proper ty taxes, sales taxes, and an in- come tax. In Alaska he is free of every sort of taxation except the i've dollars school tax and the federal taxes which are universal under the American flag.
 The Whittier waiter is taking a free ride" on the salmon indus- try along with every other Alas kan. The five dollars he pays in school tax is far below his share of the tax burden of the Territory. Instead of realizing how lucky he IS he chooses to protest the five dollars.
 Alaska could legally impose many taxes on him. One of the simplest forms of tapping the transient worker who contributes so little to Alaska and takes out so much, would be gross tax on income. Hawaii has it.
 Under the Hawaiian law the tax is two per cent of the gross income. This waiter. with an income of S3,678 a year at

!. Unemployment
Compensation

The end of the war came more
swiftly than most of us anticipated
Widespread cut-backs in war orders
followed promptly. AS result, there
has already been a considerable
number of workers who are between
jobs as war industries convert to
peace. Other workers are returning
to a 40-hour week and are faced
with a corresponding reduction in
take-home pay.
This has led to natural feeling
of uneasiness among the rank and
file of our people. Let me emphasize
that there will be no reason for un-
due timidity. A vast backlog of
orders may soon make possible the
greatest peacetime industrial activity
that we have even seen. But this
can happen only if the Congress and
the administration move vigorously
and ceurageously to deal with the
economic problems which peace has
created. Then there need be no
reason to fear either the immediate
future or the years that lie ahead
of us.
Determined action now will create
the atmosphere of confidence which
is so vital to a rapid reconversion
with a minimum of unemployment
and hardship.
No matter how rapidly reconver-
sion proceeds, however, no amount
of effort or planning will be able
Immediately to provide a job for
every one displaced from war work.
Obviously. displaced war workers
cannot find jobs until industry has
been regeared and made ready to
produce peacetime goods. During
this lag the Government should

During the years of war produc-

IN overcoming many of the preju-
dices which had resulted in discrim.
nations against minority groups.
Many of the injustices based upon
considerations of race, religion, and
color were removed. Many were
prevented. Perfection was not
reached, of course, but substantial
progress was made.
In the reconversion period and
thereafter, we should make every
effort to continue this American
ideal. 1t is one of the fundamentals
of our political philosophy, and It
should be an integral part of our
economy.
