 In Illinois, the dopesters whisp- cred that Jack Arvey would make deal with downstate Republicans to save his Democratic machine in Chicago. Just the opposite hap pened. Though he had opposed Truman's nomination, Arvey work ed harder on this campaign than any other, gave Truman the big gest parade and reception he re- ceived anywhere.
 Result. Illinois staged one of the most amazing election surprises, went overheard for Truman.
 That was why the Presidential callers at Key West included Pep per and Arvey.

Ketchikan is putting up a fight for reopening of the Coast Guard Headquarters the First City. Three prominent citizens have gone to Washington to ask that question be reopened regarding the site of the Alaska headquarters. Ketchikan is fighting so must Juneau
 The decision to bring the headquarters to Juneau came after full and complete investigation made during the summer by Capt Richmond, Assistant Chief of the Planning and Control Staff of the U S. Coast Guard, members of the party accompanying him. ard by Secretaty of the Treasury Snyder himself
 It was no haphazard decision which resulted in Juneau being selected for the Alaska Headquarters of the Coast Guard
 And Juneau must not let any Ifs interfere Ketchkan is fighting, must Juneau.
 Just to show you how Ketchikan is working not only sending three prominent residents to Washing ton nerceed for reversal of the decision but read what Bob DeArmond, under the caption of About Coast Guard Headquarters" has say in the Ketchi kan News;
 The reasons for the selection of Juneau the number choice for Coast Guard district head quarters for Alaska still obscure. The only thus far put forward that would seem to carry any weight at all is that the Coast Guard wishes to it's activities with those of other governmental agencies and therefore prefers to be located in the Territorial capital.
 The weakness of this stand is that the trend is toward decentralization of governmental agencies. The Weather Bureau and the CAA in Alaska, for instance have their headquarters in Anchorage and there is rumor that other agencies may out of Juneau. Too the Coast Guard has not found it necessary to have its district headquarters in the States in local State capitals. The eleven district headquarters the States located in Boston St. Louis, New York Philadelphia, Norfolk Miami New Orleans, Cleveland, Long Beach, San Francisco and Seattle not of which is State capital. It Is that the two present districts outside the con- tinental United States at Honolulu Hawaii and San Juan Puerto Rico the capitals of those two pos sessions but whether that accidental for pur poses of "co-ordnation" is not known. l From the taxpayers point of view it seems hard to justify a to Juneau approximately 250 miles to the northwestward, and the renting of expensive office space and quarters there. to Kodiak would be much easier to justify because it would put the headquarters in fairly central position for the entire of Alaska. The to Juneau does not do that and it will place the headquarters in spot that has poor radio communications, good deal less marine traffic than Ketchikan, and poorer arfield
 The big. gay Baranof Hotel may be an attraction to Coast Guard personnel but it is doubtful that it will offset the disagreeabe features of winter in the Taku Belt
