through Valdez because of first calls being made there could have the effect of reducing work oppor- tunitieS in Seward to a minimum. Unless Seward can continue to handle the majority of the cargo moved into the interior the pros poets for the future are not too bright, he added. It was empha- sized that it is particularly unfair on the part of vessel operators to give Valdez priority over Seward in routing ships when Seward dis charge totals almost four times the amount of cargo consigned through Valdez. At the present rate of diversion there is a strong possibility that the figures might eventually be reversed unless prompt action is taken to influence shipping firms to call first at the port of Seward.
 The discussion revealed that Seward town freight averages ap- proximately 12 to IA thousand tons annually which is considered high ly desirable traffic for city the size of Seward. A recommendation

 Years Ago Today
tBy Bob Thomas)

HOLLYWOOD, (P) - Fourteen years ago today, a small airplane nosed into the icy waters at Point Barrow, Alaska, carrying Will Rogers to his death.
 Most American adults bear a memory of hearing that tragic news and fondly recall the grin ming Oklahoman who made the nation laugh. With the years he is fast growing into a U. s. legend.
 Hollywood, where he worked and lived in his last years, recalls him as sometimes shrewd, some times humble, but always Will Rogers.
 He claimed his epitaph could be "I never met a man I didn't like" But, says former co-worker, He had no use for phonies, and could spot 'em mile away"
 He played polo and earned $3,50O,000 in eight years from movies alone, but he maintained the common touch that was his trade mark. Concerning his gram mar, he said
 Maybe ain't ain't so correct, but notice that lots of folks who ain't usin' ain't ain't eatin."
