Nothing tests truth like time,
sor time shows consequences.
Consequences are facts and facts
are stubborn things. One fact
may OFFSET a hundred arguments-
lions
And so Il may be said OF the
Honorable Howard A Coffin who,
despite political backbiting, brick
walls and iron bars. has never
swayed in his fight for the equali-
~ OF man. His first term as Re
publican representative for Mich
iEanS 18th District proved TO his
constituents that his fearless
legislation has brought about con-
sequences. consequences that II
allowed TO bear fruit will make
the United States the foremost
advocate OF civil rights in the
world
Coffin. always wise in avoiding
the contention that men are equal
IN al respects. has forced the
Willing admission OF his fellow
Congressulen 10 the assertion Of
an important respect in which
men are equal. Though fluctua-
tons may occur in color. size. in

Collins argument puts IN posi-
tive form the same philosophy Of
values which the ordinary man
proposes negatively when he in

than ne
Furthermore. Mr.. Coffin has
constantly upheld the idea that
SIZE. color. intellect moral and
social capacities do not determine
the ultimate worth Of the indi-
vdual. These differences deter
mine relative values only The
logical outgrowth Of the MI. Cof-
fins beliefs eliminate IN ex-
trcmeiy important issues
because mere are many Ella
tive values. each presenting
claims that conflict with others,
no one of them can be accepted
as the basis OF social compact
unless il is at once and forever

was most evidently brought TO
the eyes Of the American people
during the last world war when
the master race" sought the
domination Of all non-Arisn peo-
pie
To support anyone OF the re-
lstive values IS 20 surrender TO
the belief that only might can
hold society together

that society must be founded on

Seattle Combine
 Gets Adak Surplus

SEATTLE, - (R The last surplus Army and Navy equip ment in this area-22, ,000 tons worth an estimated $5,000,000 at Attu Island in the Aleutians, has been purchased for an undisclosed amount by a pool of five Seattle salvage companies.
 The pool, known as Pacific As sociates Inc, is composed of the Alaska Junk Co.,, Dulien Steel Products Inc, Pacific Tractor and Equipment Co.,, Tieton Metals CO. and California Bag and Metals Go.
 The property includes the re- maining equipment and mater ials on Attu and consists of Jeeps, trucks, tractors, graders, electron- ics, compressors, trailers, assorted clothing, and many other items.
 Much of the equipment is in good condition and all is resal- able, Louis Schwartz, president of Pacific Associates, said.
 The first shipment is scheduled to arrive here June 14 on the Rose Knot, chartered to haul the equipment. Three more voyages will be necessary.

Alaska Ship Phase
 May Be Studied

WASHINGTON, - P Gov ernment officials said yesterday a shipping contract dispute af- fecting the Alaskan trade prob ably will be included in a Presi- dential fact finding study now being made for the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific Coasts.
 President Truman has named a five-man board to study all phases of the maritime contract disputes. An all-coast strike is threatened for June Is.
 Two panels of the board have begun their fact-sifting job in New York and San Francisco. Off, ficials here said the San Francis co panel probably will decide whether to include the Alaska phase of the dispute.
 Unions of the west coast sug- gested that the Alaska phase of the contract should not be included in the fact finding because some Alaska shipping lines are not affected.

for profits comes out of sales and goes for the use of tools and the replacement of tools. When profit is high, the chances are wages also will be good. This is nearly always true unless taxes come in and take too large a chunk or unless the company is so much in debt that profits cannot be used for new tools.
 If were an employee of a company or working in an in dustry, I would be very much concerned that my employer makes a profit. would do all I could for him to make a profit. Knowing that my chances of having a good jod and of growing with the com pany would depend upon the suc- cess of the whole enterprise, I would work hard to keep my em- ployer tout of the red" Then l would know that my efforts really are building a greater America.

Dr. Larsen Studies Ancient EskimOs
pr. Helgs Larsen Returns To Resume Studies Ot Eskimo Cultures


 Eskimo Cultures
 FAIRBANKS, Expeditions to the Boring Sea coast this summer for the purpose of seeking, out connecting links between the an- cient Eskimo ruins at Point Hope and at Dutch Harbor were des- cribed recently here to the Rot ary Club by Dr. Helge Larsen of the Danish National Museum at Copenhagen.
 Dr. Larsen, who has made five earlier trips to Alaska to study Eskimo archaeology in collabora- tion win the University of AL aska, is accompanied on this trip by pr. Erik Holtved, an expert on the Eskimo languages of Green land where he spent several sea- sons with the farthest north peo- pie on earth.
 Ipiutak Discovery
 In explaining the 1948 expe- ditions, pr. Larsen reviewed his meeting with pr. Froelich Rainey in Copenhagen, which led to the expedition to Point Hope in 1889 and the discovery of the Ipiutak village consisting of some 700 oncior+ EcLiroo ho,coc N,,I othor relics which connected the dwell lerS in this ancient settlement with the peoples who had migra- ted across Siberia from Europe. Further excavations were made in 1941 and 1922 and then in 1945 Dr. Larsen came to Alaska to study another ancient village near Dutch HarbOr in the Aleutians. Similarities between the Aleutian ruins and those of Point Hope indicated that the two cultures were connected, so the hundreds of miles of unexplored territory between the two points will be investigated to trace tha path of these early Alaskans if possible.
 Three Expeditions
 The expeditions, three in num- Der, will be carried out in collab- oration with the University of Alaska as before. Dr. Larsen and Dr. Holtved will go to Bristol Bay to work northward from Dill lingham. Professor Louis Giddings of the University of Alaska, who has worked with Dr. Larsen on earlier investigations, will explore Norton Sound, and student of the University of Alaska will go over the area between the mouth of the Yukon River to Unalakleet.
 In hopes of linking the Alaskan Eskimos definitely with the Green land Eskimos, Dr. Holtved will make wire recordings of the lan- guage, folk tales and music of the villages he visits for compar- ison with the stories, songs and dialects of Greenland.
