The move came after ETC had
sought advice from Civil Service
on how TO "avoid" taking the Ne
gro oPA employees in the trans
fer and had been informed by the
Commission that there was no way
Of getting around including some
Of them.
Faced with acceptance Of the Ne
gro employees, the agency, in q
desperate effort TO maintain It's lily
white status, last Tuesday issued
indefinite furloughs" to the entire
group Of 10 employees, including
fifty-three veterans, thus violating
specific instructions from Civil Ser
vice. The oPA employees had
been ordered transferred 10 the

President Truman.

PROS AND CONS OF IT
(COntInued from Page IWo)


 located. an ice arena each winter. Gross lighting in the rooms would make blackboard work invisible to parts of the room. The expense of heating two school buildings in- stead Of one, with added ianitor service. doesn't sound like good business to us.
 As to the con point that building today is too expensive. that might be anybody's guess. Labor comes high, true. but is there any reasco to believe wages will go down within the next year in Alaska, es- pecially with a 35 per cent increase in freight rates staring us in the face? Merchants will have to main tain their present prices of goods. Or maybe boost them, and consum- CTS will have to foot the bill, to-. and they can't do it on lower wages. So. on the other hand. per haps it would be wiser to build TOW while wages and materials are low
 These are all arguments picked up frcm Mr. Pro and Mr. Con cn the street. It must be pointed out that only a few few Mr Cons were against an addition to the school at all - they admitted and reeOg- nize the need but say Wrangell cannot afford it NOW.
 But from our observation it looks like Mr. Pro or Mir. Con haven't much choice. You can get only so many sardines in a can - and you can get only so many classes or pupils in Wrangell's| schools. Beyond that. som5hing has to give and we don't want it to be WraugelIs progress.
