As l was driving down Main
Street last Saturday, another car
swung out right in front of me. 1t
turned out to be Buck Blake. He
wasn't going fast. It was just that
he had something else on his mind
at that particular moment.
Bucks really one of the incest
fellows I've ever known. But,
sometimes he gets to day-dream-
ing on the road. He sort of gets
a "blind spot" to what's going on
about him!
Now, lots of normally consider
ate folks have their blind spots"

Sure You Haven't A
Blind Spot?

1t could be anything from day
dreaming while driving a car to
humming out loud at the movies.
From where | sit, it's mighty
important to be on guard against
your own "blind spots" The other
fellow has a right to his "share of
the road" whether it's hav-
ing a taste for temperate glass
of sparkling beer or a desire to lis
ten to some classical music if he
wants to.

Alaska Steam Will Hire Outside Of Hiring Halls''

SEATTLE, (F) - Employment in the stewards department of the Alaska Steamship company was in effect thrown open to all corners Tuesday.
 Since 1886 all employment of such personnel has been through the hiring hall maintained here by the national union of marine cooks and stewards. CIO affili- ate.
 The new policy was revealed at a National Labor Relations Board hearing by E. A. Dobrin of Bogle, Bogle and Gates, counsel for the steamship company.
 His statement followed a charge by J. A. Jenkins, counsel for NLRB general counsel Robert E.. Nenham that the hiring agree ment between the union and steamship operators is illegal un- der the Taft-Hartley Act.
 "The Alaska Steamship com pany is prepared to accept in- dividual applications for employ ment in the stewards department of its vessels and to give such ap- plications bona fide consideration without reference to the preferen- tial hiring provisions of the agree ment of December 2, 1948," he said.
 DObrin said he was no cOnced- ing that the contract is illegal as charged by Jenkins. The new pol icy was adopted to protect the company in the event of an ad- verse decision by the National La Dor Relations Board.
 Union officials withheld com ment.
 Jenkins charge was made in his opening statement at a hearing on an NLRB complaint of unfair labor charges filed against the CIO union, Pacific Maritime Asso- citation, American Mail Line and

Maritime COmmis- sion MustCOntinue Chartering Ships

TACOMA, CP)-Rep. Tollefson R.-WashO told the U. s. maritime commission Saturday it would be guilty of deliberate flouting of the intent of Congress" if it can cels the policy of chartering vessels to private lines.
 In a letter to the commission, the Tacoma Congressman said he had been informed that such a policy now is being followed by the commission.
 He described it as posing a threat of disaster to Alaska and as putting many private operators out of business.
 Tollefson said the House com mittee on merchant marine and fisheries had studied the practice of chartering ships to private lines. It had recommended minor changes in the program, he said, but did not suggest discontinu- ance of the charter program.
 The suggested change Wa S merely to eliminate one-trip char ters, making the charter period instead four months for liners and six months in the case of tramp steamers.
 "The problem is perhaps more critical now than at any previous time because of the strategic posi- tion Alaska occupies in the na- tional defense picture" Tollefson said. Service to the Territory must be maintained and not in terrupted."
 The charter program has been valuable to operators in the north inasmuch as it enables them to handle the rush season without involving themselves with costly construction of additional ships.

Truman Still sks Repeal Of TaGl-HartIey Act

KEY WEST, Fla. LAP), President Truman moved ahead Saturday with plans to ask Congress for strong civil rights program while this country speculated on the range of his anti-discrimination policy in federal housing.
 The White House gave full en- dorsement to a statement by sOlic- itor general Philip B. Perlman in New York that future housing projects can not expect federal aid if they write clauses against tenants of any color or creed.
 The full extent of this ruling awaited further clarification.
 Meanwhile, the President re- sumed work on the State of the Union" message he will deliver to Congress in January in which he will renew his demands for:
 1. A federal anti-lynching law.
 2. Repeal of the poll tax as a re- quirement for voting for federal officers.
 3. A whole series of other laws designed to ban discrimination against Negroes and other minor ity groups.
 This same message, to be deliV- cred in person, also will call for repeal of the Hartley Act and the passage of measures MT. Truman advocated in his l948 election campaign.

SEATTLE, (P) - The white mans society eventually will as- simulate the Eskimos and Aleuts of Alaska, in the opinion of Si- neon Oliver, half-Eskimo concert pianist, author and lecturer who. himself, was assimilated many years ago.
 Oliver. 47, was in Seattle last week en route from his home in Anchorage, to Los Angeles to be- gin a three-month schedule of lec- lures on the native customs, su- perstitions, legends and folk mu- sic of the Far North.
 Packed in Divers luggage are wire recordings of hundreds of Eskimo songs collected on tours of Arctic villages. The Eskimo "orchestra" consisted of a half dozen or more men squatting cross legged, chanting and beating Thy thm on a taut hide with a Widdow switch. Some Eskimo musicians prefer drum sticks carved by hand from broken oars, Oliver said.
 Oliver, author of two books about "The Smoky Sea" now is completing third book on Alaska native life.
 The vast influx of construction workers and tourists into hereto fore isolated areas of the Arctic is changing the lives and the cul- ture of the Eskimos," he com mented.
 Improved educational facilities for the natives also are speeding the disappearance of characteris- tics of the purely native social strife, Aliver said.

Jefferson Day. Dinner Raises S4OO.0O for Demos

NEW YORK, (P)-Vice Presi- dent Alben w. Barkley started the Democratic Party down the road to the 1850 elections Friday night at a Jefferson Day dinner that raised $4OO.OOO for the party war chest.
 The neWly-Wedded Weep" forecast a Democratic Presidential victory in 1852.
 Speaking to 2,600 party leaders nthe grand ballroom of the Wal dorf-Astoria, Barkley extolled the Democrats program and taunted the Republicans.
 "We are now told by those who occupy the position of tree-sitters and hitching-post devotees, that this program is leading us down the road to the so-called welfare state" he said. "We are being told that we are now on the last mile toward collectivism in America.
 "These prophets of pessimism have not told the American peO- pie what part of the Democratic program is to be repealed.
 "They have not told us how far back we must go in order to recog- nize Uncle Sam as a complacent old gentleman sitting astride the dome of the Capitol, drawing his salary and doing nothing"
 Republicans responded wi h fresh attacks on President Tru- mans program.
