 The Committees of nearly every Session of the Legislature have strongly recommended that the Home hospital be used exclusively by the inmates and that no outsiders be hospitazed or treated there.
 The l945 Committee under Senator Andrew Ner- land, again recommended closing the Home Hospital to outsiders and the Committee report was approved by the Legislature It appears that not the slightest effort to that end has been made by the Board of Trustees in the past and Committee feels that thus ignoring the Legislatures findings and directions not be excused justified when period of many years has passed without action.
 There were direct contradictions in statements cf the Homes Doctor the staff and officials as to the number of outside patients treated by the hospital during year Statements of outside eX-patlents also contradicted the Home Officials.
 CONCLUSIONS
 The one purpose of the Pioneers Home is to pro- vide living place for aged Alaskans where their health, comfort and pleasure is paramount It IS the duty of the management and staff to maintain an active positive continual effort to that end, not the negative attitude of doing only what has to be done to keep body and soul alive.
 Efforts of management or it's lack is always evi- denced by the general atmosphere, the physical and mental reactions of the inmates, and the morale of the employees From that viewpoint, the Home did not give satisfactory impression and we believe IS 1auty in this respect We believe proper management, where the heart is in the work could bring about great improvement in the contentment physical well being, and happiness of the old folks.
 It is the duty of management to actively seek solutions to the special problems involved of physical and mental and not just to provide fairly com fortable place where the aged left to their own devices, to while away their time best they
 After our weeks of inquiry and the inspection of the Home, your combined Committee feels there is much room for improvement in the management and the details of the Home operation; that unwonted unpleasant relationship with the toWnspeople is felt by all that the easiest quickest and most effective way of finding solution of the whole problem is to have complete change of Trustee members, Super ntendent Doctor and Head Nurse.
 Your Committee wishes to be understood that these conclusions are net to be taken as reflection the nIyyadh hI,t ciy and most effective method of bringing about the plete reorganization recommended.
 Your Committee believes town the size of Stka should have other general hospital facilities than those at the Pioneers Home The Territory built the Insti- tuition and maintains hospital in it for the exclusive and comfort of qualified aged pioneers Any of the facilities by outside people is infringement the rights of the inmates and cannot help but be conducive to less neglect of the inmates by nurse doctor.

should be. In England, under the
labor government, religious instruc-
ton in the schools is compulsory
unless parents specifically request
that their children be Withdrawn
from such classes. In America the
overwhelming majority OF all re-
ligious bodies are against compul-
sorry religious instruction In schools.
But 1t is impossible to bring about a
complete divorce of education from
one of the basic ingredients of civiii-
zation.
Treasures Of Culture.
The finest Of the Christmas carols
belong, in words and music, among
the immortal treasures of our cul-
ture. No child, educated in that
culture, should be banned anywhere
from familiarity with them unless
his parents wish to withdraw his
participation as, I am convinced,
not 10 Jewish families out Of 100
would desire.
Christmas. throughout the west
ern world, Is a feast of universal
love, peace, light and good will.
Woven into it are memories and
rituals predating Christianity, de-
rived from pagan celebrations of
the winter solstice. But only Hitler
ever tried to repaganize the feast,
and he, the enemy of both Jews
and Christians, brought nothing
but woe to mankind. The Christ
mas festival encompasses all in its
affection, especially children. The
spirit which leads Jews to send
gifts to their Christian friends and
Christians to Jews on this day con-
tributes far more to good will than
the bigoted action of the rabbis
AS most of their coreligionists
know.
Besides, the rabbis themselves are
q theocratic body. Pressure from
them on the public school system is
highly inconsistent with their ex-
pressed attitude. 1t is true that
half the Jews Of the world are In
America and half of these In
Greater New York. But they still
do not, even there, comprise a third
OF the population, while throughout
the country they are less than 4 per
cent of the population. And If the
reaction Of my own. Jewish friends
in New York is indicative, Jews
no less than Christians-feel that
members Of the New York rabbinate
have overreached themselves.
I imagine, therefore, that we still
shall harken on Christmas-in
school and out while herald
angels sing, proclaiming peace on
earth and mercy mild. School
classes still will read Dickens
christmas Carol" And God, we
hope, will still rest all merrie gentle
men. and let nothing them dismay
which is our Christmas wish to
the dismayed and dismaying New
York rabbis.

He Is connected with the mems
clothing industry. He is Of better
than average height and has a mag
nificent pair OF legs. particularly
around the calves.
Scheme Meets Success.
This sinister rascal is plotting to
revive the popularity of knickers
among men. His diabolical mind is
filled with schemes to restore knick-
ers to the place in the sun they held
in the 1920s. Those of you who are
too young to remember what the
average man who wore knickers
looked like are indeed fortunate.
Those Of you old enough to remem-
ber will readily understand why I
feel that this Guy Fawkes Of the
haberdashery business should be put
away at once.
Already he has met with some sue
cess. When the British and Amer
ican Ryder Cup golf teams met on
the East Coast not long ago the
players all wore knickers, and his
was the evil hand which forced the
players into showing two kinds Of
shanks on the golf course.
