For A Years AlaskanS Have Put Up With The Sentinel;
 Forecast: More Of Same

pitching when its Country Camp bell is being run by atomic energy. If it has no more luck with Con gressmen than it had with the Jed Johnson committee, some Sem tinel editor probably will still he shouting for statehood. It's an interesting note that back in 1916, The Sentinel was raising its voice in no uncertain tones for Alaska statehood. It still is and will con- tinue to do so. The Sentinel never has been able to figure out why some Alaskans can cuss the bur eaus on one hand and be against statehood on the other. The way way to get rid of bureaucratic control is to become a state and send a couple of live-wire Senators and a voting Representative back to Congress.
 This didn't start out to be an editorial on statehood, but it nev- CT hurts to get in plug now and then, so let's get back to this birthday business.
 The Sentinel is 43 next Tues day; old enough as one town sage put it, to know better. However, the guest reporter predicts it never will. For God, country and other worthwhile issues The Sentinel will go energetically on its humble way, blind as d bat to everything but right.

SEATTLE = Thirteenth Naval District authorities today reported that the tie up of the Alaska Steamship Company's passenger fleet here by labor troubles had crippled the delivery of food sup plies and Thanksgiving turkeys to the armed forces in the Kodiak area.
 Six ships were idle here as the marine cooks and stewards associa- tion of CIO remained deadlocked in a dispute which involved use of passenger dining rooms for crew meetings at sea. Overtime issues were a second issue.
 Messages of protest from sol diers in Alaska began to arrive here Thursday in which they ex- pressed 'wonderment and disgust" and asked why the company could not cope with such a triyal mat ter'. It was signed Alaska High Pointers" Similar messages were directed to the Union Wednesday.
 L. W. Baker, general manager of the Alaska line, said the move ment of 1,2S3 troops southbound and 1,437 northbound had been stopped. The company declared that the union had refused to submit the case to federal arbitration.
 The union said 71 of it's members involved in the dispute countered with the statement that ''the company has fIatly refused to negotiate.2

By The Guest Reporter

If this wondering reporter hadn't dropped into town this week it is just possible that an expectant world would not have known that next Tuesday, November 20, is the forty-third birthday of this vener- able family journal - The Wran- .gell Sentinel, Oldest Continuously Published Newspaper in Alaska.
 Since November 20, 1902, when A. V. R. Snyder and some public spirited citizens decided Wrangeil should have newspaper, The Sen tinel has been plugging along in behalf of its community and the Territory of Alaska. Virtually ev- erybody in the community at some time Or other has helped edit it. Some of the old timers used to hand-peg it's type before Jim Prit- chard, former owner, got pros porous and bought linotype. Things, people and issues have been cussed and discussed in it's columns. Editors have been beaten up a few times but to our know ledge the paper has never been sued. although it's. been pursued a few times by hopeful creditors.
 The Sentinel has seen them come and go from the horse and buggy days to the atomic bOmf age. It probably will be in there

EDI TORIAL

Mayor F. c. Hanford today call ed for a mass meeting to be held Monday night at p. m. at the fire hall of people of the town in order to determine what shall be done about the hospital
 As stated in last weeks Sentinel the National Council of the Episeo- pal church through Bishop Bent ley, has offered three proposals for disposition of the hospital which, as stated in Bishop Bentley's let ter last week, the Board of Mis- sions admits it has not the funds to run. Demands from mission fields upon the Board leaves made quate funds to cover these fields, let alone Wrangell's hospital, the Bishop explained.
 The three proposals made by the Church are: Continuation of the present Board of Control under which set-up the Church will hire the nursing staff, but not pay them and will take care of the building and twill furnish other aid in the way of supplies and equip ment".
 CD Lease the hospital to the Town of Wrangell at $1.00 per year and the town run the hospi- tai but without privilege to sub lease it.
 C3) Sale of the hospital by the Church to anyone who will oper- ate it as a hospital Tn such case the Church points out, sale price would have to be a fair appraised one obtained by estimate and not nominal sum-"
 The Episcopal church has made these proposals clearly and fairly and now il is up to the citizens of Wrangell to decide the issue There has been so much controver- sy over the hospital that Mayor Hanford thought. the fairest way to decide, once and for all, would be to put it up to the peaple. It is hoped there will be a good turnout for the meeting.
 First proposal of the Bishops would leave the hospital in the same position under which it has operated for the past twenty or so years. That is, a Board of CPn- trol made up of citizens of the town to pass and approve or dis approve bills and expenditures of a Superintendent with the only difference that the Episcopal church would take the responsibility of keeping the hospital staffed.
 Second proposal would throw the hospital in the lap of the town with, we assume, the Town Coun- cil acting similar to a Board of Control and the city making up the deficits which might be in- cured in it's operation, making re- pairs. etc.
 Third proposal would allow any organization, such as some profes- sional nursing organization, to come in and buy the hospital out right and assume full responsibility of it's operation
 As we have pointed out before,
