F. D. CurI Believes in
Water Safety Training
At An Early Age

Seeing man thrash around
helplessly in the water and go down
for the last time is no pleasant ex-
perience.
A man who has seen such a
drowning is Fred D. Carl, director
of the Learn-to-Sw Campaign,
sponsored by the YMCA and The
Star.
He saw the drowning from the
shore of Chesapeake Bay several
summers ago. The man fell into the
water from small fishing boat and
did not know how to swim.
Mr.. Carl had always thought
swimming and water safety should
be learned at an early age. That
experience impressed on him more
than ever the need to know how to
swim.
Fine Recreation.
"One never knows when he will
find himself in a situation where
being able to swim will save his
life," he declared. Also swimming
is one of the finest forms of recre-
alton. 1t is relaxing and exercises
almost every muscle of the body,
unlike many other sports"

REPUBLICAN ADMINISTRATION IS TO BE ELECTED
 IN 1QdQ

F fty-two out of 57 political cor espondents in the United States
 ick a Republican to be the next President of the United States; zee Look Magazine" of January 6. The Republican captured Congress in 1947, which is sign of Re- publican President in 1948.
 No Democrat has ever been elected with 3rd party in the field for President when two Demo- crats have been candidates for the Presidency.
 Alaska has always been on the winning side: 1908, Republican; 1912 to 1916, Democratic; 1920 to
 932, Republican; 1882 to 1948, Democratic; 1947, Republicans com- ing back to power in Alaska.
 It's neither good business nor .xpedient to vote for the election of any Democrat for Territorial Administrative office; such office will not be in harmony with the next Republican Administration and can be of no service to Alaska.
 Be wise, Alaska voters, in 1948. Alaska is going backwards under the Democratic regime. Nothing out Government funds is keeping 1t going.
 From time to time we will give the facts that are retarding the development of Alaska. People are demanding change after 15 years, saying it cannot be worse. PS. Listen in to Radio KINY, February 12, 8 to g p. m.
