LATER BAR
 CLOSING IS
 CONSIDERED
Council Thinks Over Extra
 Hour Asked by Liquor

Though re-affirming the stand taken by it's two immediate prede- cessors, against increasing the number of liquor establishments in this city, Juneau's city administra- tion last evening did express sen- timent in favor of relaxing closing hours on sales of spirits.
 A group of pending applications for new liquor licenses was dealt with at one swoop when Mayor Waino Hendrickson voted split Council on record for holding the present limit on establishments purveying potent beverages. Coun- cilmen Henry Sully. R. H. Williams, and Ed Nielsen were lined up in favor of Nielsen's motion not to approve any additional new license applications. George JorgenSon, James Larsen and Stan Grummett voted against the motion. putting the decision up on the Mayor.
 A bit later in the evening, how ever, a majority of the Council seemed set to soften the decision as far as new restaurant beer and wine permits are concerned.
 After Nielsen's motion to hold the line had carried, the Council turn ed its, attention to petition from the liquor dealers association, ask ing that the closing hours for bars and package stores be extended one hour on weekday nights until l o'clock a. m., with closure on Sat- urday nights and nights preceding holidays to remain at 2 o'clock a. m. The dealers also requested lee way to sell right up to the closing minute, with an added half-hou in which the clear their places.
 First answering motion to that came from Nielsen. He proposed a 2 o'clock a. m. closing through the week with Sundays closed all day, but failed to gain a second.
 Councilman ouny then moved that the new hours sought by the liquor dealers be embodied in new ordinance to be acted upon by the Council at the next regular meet ing, with the modifications that sales be permitted up until clos ing time but no consumption be allowed after IS minutes beyond the closing hour. Larsen seconded the motion, but so much confusion de- veloped that it was withdrawn and the question was turned over to the Police Committee with instructions to prepare a new liquor-regulating ordinance along the lines suggested.
 The Council was about to turn to other business when it was con- fronted with the application of G. R. Churchill for restaurant-type license to serve beer and wine in his barbecue place in the Winter and Pond Building. That evoked a new line of thought = that restaur- ant licenses should be considered in a different category from hard liquor permits and, with only three of them in Juneau now, that more restaurant licenses might not hurt. The Churchill application was re- ferred to the Police Committee.
 Still on liquor, the Council ap-

STARVATION OVERSEAS CAN
 BREED ANOTHER WORLD WAR
By Faith Baldwin

TTH1E EMERGENCY Food Collection on behalf of Il UNRRA gives each of us the privilege of contrib utng money, food in tin cans both, to the people of starving and war-mangled countries
 It is a privilege, and from a common-sense view point it is imperative. Those who somehow survive long period of starvation become warped not only in body.
 The old will die, mercifully for them; but the young will struggle to ve filling their bloated so- achs with grass roots, garbage, anything
 In order to live they will lie, steal, murder, for self-preservaton is primal law.
 It is to the young that look for world peace, unity, and orderly government; but people who have always been hungry not interested in ideals Even tually they will be interested in another
 If we feed those who starve may we'll be protecting own children and grandchildren from the burning bomb the shattering guns, the slow or sudden death.
 Look at it another way if you have never seen starving child imagine Then look at the child you love Will the contrast help you sleep nights?
 Centuries ago it was ordered by compassion that knew neither race, creed, color Feed my lambs Can we afford to ignore this plea, knowing are all children of God?
 Give in His name-in the name of all humanity!

A A may soon be scheduled to and from airports with out regard to the weather, by of Army Navy radar equipment that has been used since early in 1945 to land aircraft during weather conditions of near ceiling and visibility. This radar system, which makes closedin airports thing of the past is known ground controlled approach" (GCA). The system provide around the-clock airport traffic control regardless of weather conditions
 In the GCA system, manufactured by Gfan Brothers Inc, two microwave radar systems thei ground reveal the exact position of incoming air craft with respect to the landing glide path and per- init the ground operator to radio precise flight n- structons to pilot coming in through zero-zero wealth CT, One radar search system operates to aid in or control the homng holding, stackng and traffic pat tern operations of aircraft The second system controls the aircraft during actual ledown along predeer- mined glide path. No special equipment is required in the aircraft other than ordinary arground radio muncatons equipment
 The search radar system provides the GCA ground operators with information the azmuth bearing and range of the plane from the airfied at distances up to 30 miles and at attitudes up to 4OO0 feet The tenna Is continuously rotated that its transmitted and reflected pulses examine the space around the GCA location The echo pulses received by the fed through electronc amplfiers that conduct them to cathode-ray tube in the equipment This is hghperSlstence cathode-ray tube that displays the transmitted pulse at its center and has illuminated line from the center of the tube to it's outer edge to display the azimuth of search.
 With the search system aircraft can be held at a given point and stacked in altitude prior to landing It serves to line up the aircraft in azmuth with the second radar system. The latter is precision system that provides operators with accurate information on azimuth headings, altitude range up to 10 miles For more precise close-in work two-mile indication is also provided.
 Instantaneous recordings are made on the screen of the cathoderay tube, showing azmuth in de- grees and elevation deviation in feet with respect to the correct approach line and angle. This information is then reayed to the pilot who makes the proper cor rections in heading and rate of descent.
 The combination of the search and precision radar systems the arground radio telephone, and the inter- communications system between operators, enables the GCA controller to give positive, accurate data on aircrafts range and bearing from the airport The pilot is given altitude, range, and bearing information in the last 10 miles of the approach which enables him to bring the plane to within few feet of the ground
 AS used by the Army, GCA makes. regular flight schedules possible around the clock when airfields completely closed in by fog.

would turn out as it did. Many were surprised.
 I would not wish to re- view the case here. even if there were room for it. but 1 am glad the Supreme Court surprised a lot of good people and set them studying and talking about this purely American lib-' ertv. freedom of the press. Let me say this: You don't publish stories in the old country that hurt the feel ings of potentates and get away with it!
 America is Different In this country. it is as- sumed that a man is not fit for public office unless he can take all the raging and criticism that goes with it and still hold his temper and do a good iOb. Think how long a crooked off cial might stay in office if he could protect himself from criticism all the time. and yet encourage newspa- pers to magnify the faults of other men who ran for his office.
 Editors better not get careless and publish un- complimentary statements about their neighbors. or about things their neigh bors have to sell: courts make them pay for the damage. if any. EditorS dare not get mean and print malicious lies about people because courts send writers to iail for that. Publishers can't do what ever they please. That's apart from freedom of the press. For the Public Good
 It is recognized by law in the United States that the people are entitled to know what goes on.
 Public information is for the public good. In line with this very principle. the Post Office Depart ment will move 60 times more news tonnage for the money than letters which are private. not public. Our government considers spreading news an impOr- tant public service.

WHERE is TERMITE MAN2

If there is a good termite man
in town right now he could really
do himself good at this time. The
termites are flying all over the
houses at night. These little
critters shed their wings and
then crawl off to chaw on some
of the good Florida yellow pine
we have in town. They certainly
are bothersome. Key West resi-
dents for years used a spray in
their rooms and also put pans, of
water under the lights where
they gather that they may fall
therein. But thousands upon
thousands of the critters crawl
away and make themselves at
home in Key West homes. In the
spring of each year this hap
pens. So / repeat if there is a
good exterminating man in town
right now he should make him
self known.

POLITICAL oUTcAsTI

What is a political outcast?
Many persons have asked me
this Some with knowing look.
Well political outcast in my
mind is one who can get the
support of neither party. 1t is
like the story of the man who
supported a certain candidate
and because of his support the
man lost the election. There are
some few of this sort and what
ever they touch turns to naught.
1t is unfortunate but then it is
much better that these men do
not come to office in public life
because they would inflict their
unwanted ! intentions upon the
people who voted them in. No

smart guy and the more I see
