TALBOT HITS AT BARTLETT BILL
 FOR SHIPPING

J. A Tolbert of Ketchikan, mem- Board, believes that the passage of the Bartlett Bill now in Congress to authorize and empower the Alas ka Railroad to operate vessels to Alaska would be a terrible blow to the development of Alaska. 7
 He said few Alaskans realize the bill is making rapid progress in Congress, and that it has the ap- proval of the Department of the Interior and the House Committee icn Territories, and unless "vigor- eusly opposed by Alaskans 1t is very likely to become law"
 Said Talbot, passage of this Bill would be a terrible blow to the de- velopment of Alaska. It would put three private steamship companies out of business, just when they are commencing to overcome some of the difficulties which have caused us to expect higher rates. Higher rates to all the Territories, in- cluding Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico will not be approved by the Maritime Commission at this time.
 Under the guise of protecting 10 cdd million dollars invested in the Alaska Railroad" Talbot's state nant continued, this Bartlett Bill is about to be showed down our throats. The next step would be to take over the various docks, can- neries. cold storage plants. etc, to protect the tremendous investment in vessels, which would be neces- sary. This would be a gradual pro- cess, but would occur, I feel cer- tain" he said.
 T do not believe Alaskans want this bills he added If they don't it is high time that direct and vigorous action he taken or Alaske. will ba wholly at the mercy of the Alaskan Railroad and the Department of Interior Alaska is almost strangled to death already and I believe this bill would finish the job," he concluded.
 Talbot was a Juneau visitor We'd r1sday enroute to Anchorage on business.

The STRENGTH
OF FREEDOM
BY Ruth Taylor

The first time | heard that
phrase ii came from the lips of
one OF the truly great elder states
men. There was a lifetime of ex-
perience in his tone when he said,
I'VE underestimate the strength
of freedom
What he had learned in his
years of struggle to improve the
conditions of his fellow Ameri-
cans, is the secret of the power of
democracy. 1t is the vital spark
of reserve power of our republic
There is a hidden strength to
freedom, an innate power which
is inYincibe Fearful souls have
spoken and written much of the
might OF totalitarian nations-of
the speed with which they can act,
of their cohesive power. But all
of these are as nothing beside the
strength Of freedom. Freedom has
powers beside which the powers
of dictators either of the left or
right erumble into their native
nOthingness.

There is a balance of power in
freedom because it is applicable
TO all without regard to class. col.
or or creed. without equal rights
for all there is no freedom for any
no liberty. just license to op-
press for the favored few.
Freedom means the possession
of self initiative and the exercise
of the powers of elaboration. 1t
takes courage to be free, because
1t demands the acceptance of
duties as well as of rights.
A man who is free is a strong
man. He is free from the chains
of hate or prejudice. from fear,
selfishness and despair. The man
who is free has learned to walk
alone. to think and decide for
himself. He does not lean on 9TH
ers. He sctands firm by himself.
We have underestimated the
strength of our freedom. 1t is
like the education of a child. If
a child has been properly trained,
he can be trusted as an adult to
make correct decisions. Those who
have been trained to freedom
have the strength to use it wisely
This is our salvation as a nation.
This is the cohesive quality of
democracy.

alleged policy of Portland housing
commission restricting tenants in

white veterans and their families

A. Dahlke, chairman of the hous-
ing commission, said he had writ
ten to the league officers sug-
costing that they set a date at
their own convenience to talk
over the problem with housing

This invitation, said Mr.. Dahl
Ike. would also include Portland
chapter No. of the American

mission on race relations of the

who had previously addressed pro
