Governor and
 Alaska }. }. Co. Confer. Here
Most Satisfactory" Says zeusler of Meetings
 with Gruening


 Steamship Company in Juneau dur ing the past week have concluded a series of conferences with Gov. Gruening and his staff on tic subject of Alaska transportation problems and on certain phases of the recently enacted Territorial in- come tax bill
 With Admiral F. A. Zeusler, executive assistant to the president of the Alaska Steamship Company IS s. Duryea, general freight and passenger agent of the s. E. Alaska district stationed at Ketchikan, and H. Ream, assistant auditor, who have participated in the discussions
 Company represen tatives present. ed to Gov. Gruening tentative plans for their future ship operation.
 Meetings with Gov. Gruening, ac- cording to Admiral Zeusler, have been most satisfactory with the re- suit that another conference is planned for the latter part of March when Gilbert w. Skinner, 9res.dent of the company, will meet with the governor and his advisors with a view of preparing a set of
 proposals satisfactory to the terri tory and to the company for pre- sentation to the Maritime Commis- sion and the Interior Department, Admiral Zeusler said today.
 Recently the Maritime Commis- sion approved one part of the pro- posed company plan: that allotting ships to the company and allowing hem to be retained under the cus- tody of the company when not needed, rather than returning them to the commiss.on for laying up when not on schedule. The cost ,f each lay-up and each commits sioning is $l0,000, company off cials explained. This procedure will not only make possible the use of .he same ships all of the time, with their company installed improve ments but it will save money and permit better operation.
 The other part of the company plan under discussion involves the acquiring of freighters of the laid- up fleet from the Maritime Com mission at more reasonable rate of charter hire or purchase, and for the development of a plan for the building of new passenger shirs, especially designed for the Alaska trade by the government and for their acquisition by the company by easy charter hire or purchase.
 The Alaska Steamship Company IS desirous of maintaining the best rates possible in the face of rising costs, Admiral Zeusler said.
 Many internal changes have been made within the company and if these proposals are adopted they would be an important step for ward in the plans of the Alaska 5. s. Company to render efficient ind satisfactory service.
 A resume of company operations for the months of January and February of 1949 compared to the same months in 1948 was presented at the conference. During these months the company operated three passenger vessels on regular weekly schedules to the important seaports of Alaska, seven freighters to ser- vice all of the Alaskan open ports where necessary and three freighters in other service. Three ships were laid up. Records show 51,664 tons of freight were carried, including mail. This compared with 19,0Oo tons for the same period in 1948. About 1l0 passengers were carried ncrthbound 55 intraport, and 60 southbound on each passenger ves-

COAL OUTPUT IS REDUCED
 T0TRI(kLE
Thousands of Lewis Min CTS Stop Work for Two
 Weeks in 10 States
By WILLIAM G. SHOCK

PITTSBURGH, Pa, March IA R-A miners work stoppage today reduced the nations mighty coal output to mere trickle.
 It idled some 471,000 hard and soft coal miners east of the Miss issippi. It hit the nations coal dependent industries by forcing fur loughs on some 69,000 railroad workers.
 The diggers started two-week voluntary lay-off in answer to John L. Lewis call for a memorial to dead and injured miners. The miners also are protesting ap- pointment of pr. James Boyd as Director of the U. s. Bureau of Mines.
 The idle miners normally work ip these ten states: West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Illinois, Alabama, Ohio, Virginia, Tennessee, Indiana and Maryland.
 Lewis order for a work stoppage exempted about 32,000 UNIV min- CTS in these states: Wyoming, Col orado, Montana, Utah, Arkansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Washing ton, Kansas and Missouri.
 Trickle From West
 The western states produce only a trickle of the nations soft coal. Pennsylvania produces virtually all the anthracite mined in the United States and ranks second after West Virginia as soft coal producer.
 In Washington, Senator Byrd O. Va.) called on the Senate to promptly confirm pr. Boyd,s ap- pointment "as a reply" to the mine shutdown. He added:
 ''As the nomination of Dr. Boyd is now before the Senate for con- firmation, the strike order is noth- ing less than an attempt to coerce and intimidate the Senate of the United States '. ="
 The miners may find time hang ing heavily on their hands In oth- CT years such holidays" come later in the season when the men could do spring gardening, go fishing or to the baseball parks. But it was too cold today.
 Ordered By Lewis
 Lewis, 69-year- -old leader of the United Mine Workers, last Friday ordered the pits closed down from today until March 28.
 The first effects of the work stop page came in the railroad indus try. Eleven railroads furloughed 57,425 workers. They're employed by railroads who get a big chunk of their freight revenue from haul ing coal
 Steel industries will not be hit immediately. They have large sup plies of coal above ground. The national coal stockpile totals an es- timated 7O,0o0,00O tons. That's the most coal above ground in any spring since 1922 It's good for about 45 days.

Just notice the questions they ask you: What are

Another thing that disturbs me is the low grade OF
shops. stores and factories are full of Indifferent employees
who give half measure, who stall on the job, who manage
to waste two or three hours each day.
Can it be that a big slice of our population no longer
believes in Opportunity? Has so much talk about Security
caused a letdown in the vital drive that made America great?
Young people used to expected Opportunity. Now they de-
mand Security.
Perhaps that's where the difference lies.
The fact that jobs have been plentiful the past several
years has a strong bearing on the matter. Few OF the young

job for weeks. Maybe the situation will correct itself with

Somebody tell me. What's wrong with work?

On Striking Children

He must want to be good.
1t is the mind that moves people,
not the body. We should know by
now that "As q man thinketh in
his heart, so is he" It is possible
to beat child into submission. It
Is possible to force him to do what
is willed him to do. but 1t is never
possible to force him to think. to
want to do what he does not think.
what he does not want to do.
When child is forced by pain to
follow another's will 1t is that
other who is acting and not the
child. The child has shut himself
inside his mind and there he will
remain, hating the one who forced
him to retreat within himself. to
yield himself to another.
Little children who have not yet
reached the stage of reflective
thinking, so that they have no
background Of experience to think
with. are likely to get into danger
occasionally. Some one may have
to snatch them from it. It may
even be possible. though I grudge
the possibility. that he must be
slapped to save him. We will
grant that every parent (although
no teacher) is allowed an emer-
gency slap. Emergencies do not
become a habit.
Children Of school age have re-
Elective thinking ability. The
teacher Is a professionally trained
worker. He knows how a child's
mind works. He knows how to
stimulate it to creative activity,
how to guide it so as to waken q
desire for what is good, for what
is lovely. A teacher worth his
salt knows that he must deal Just
with the mind of a child. and then
his body will follow.
What about the odd children
who do not follow? The teacher
studies those children (there are
only q few, maybe one to a class
studies their health, their home
background. works his way into
their families as a friend, helps
with all his art to set them toward
goodness. He may not be success
ful. but the chances are excellent
that he will be. I have seen it
done often. '.' 4
The boys and girls who annoy
teachers are the adolescents. No.
body should lay hands on them
1t Is worse than useless. It is. a
crime against society to beat such
children because it destroys some-
thing precious to character. toI
spiritual growth. It must not be
done. Parents must see to that.
They. they alone, are responsible
Tor their children's rearing and
they should never relinquish that
right to anybody.
