Seward seaport record. (Seward, Alaska) 1948-195?, 1950-07-04
Ord DIVISION POPULATION
INCREASED 500 PER CENT

James D. Brown, Divisional
Supervisor, Bureau of the Cen
sus, announced the preliminary
population figure for the 3rd
Judicial Division of Alaska to
be 1888 persons. The 1910
census figures showed total
population for the 3rd Division
was 1892. This is an increase
of 800 per cent in ten years.
Of course the above figures
cover the entire 3rd Division
with the greater Anchorage area
included. The same amount OF
increase is, however, evident in
every area of this division.
The recording district of Sew
ard is given a population of
1858 as against 1925 in 1910, an
increase of 1923 persons. The
city of Seward, itself, shows an
increase of 1114, with a total
of zoos in 1850, and 949 in
the 1910 census. The Seward
school population increased IA
per cent year with the prob
ability of an even faster in
crease for the next three years.

but most particularly today
with all the enthusiasm OF which
we are capable.
Let us indeed wave the flag we
love not with less enthusiasm
than our fathers did not with
less appreciation for it not on
fewer occasions but with all
the enthusiasm, affection and 10y
altv our American heritage in
spires within US.
For that Flag =. for which NIL
lions have fought and bled and
for which so many thousands have
unuuestionably laid down their
lives is under attack again to-
day!
That Flag and the sacred insti-
tutions for which it STANDS are
threatened.
Some of our enemies are within
our very midst. They are the GRIM
inals. cranks and crackpots who
form the advance guard OF our
foes main body :. communism.
Right now they are endeavoring
to soften up the United States ..
seeking to spread discomfort, dis
sension and distrust among our
people and to poison the minds of
our youth.
To stem this menacing red tide
we may thank Almighty God that
at long last there has been formed
throughout our Country united
front. 1t is the All-American Con-
ference to Combat Communism.
This great conference comprises
the representatives of more than oo
national organizations embracing a
total membership of more than half
the population of the United States
We of the American Legion are
proud that it was our efforts that
brought about this magnificent
conference which today is working
so diligently to leave no stone UNI
turned until the cancer of COM
munism is destroyed.
That conference has labelled COM
munism as "the greatest present
threat to domestic security and
peace on earth
The peace :. the very heart :. !.

Comments From The
Leqion's Commander

The United States, it has been
said, is the only country with a
known birthday.
Independence Day :. the Fourth
of July is the 174th birthday
of our beloved land.
Among all the holidays of the
year, it stands out as pre-eminently
American. 1t is the one day of the
year when every loyal American
. :. regardless of whether his faith
be Protestant, Catholic, Jewish or
Mormon may rejoice in the
Liberty that is ours.
The GLORIOUS Fourth we call
it . and with good reason.
independence Day commemor-
ates the signing -. on the Fourth
of July, 1776 :. of the Declaration
of Independence, that famous docu-
ment which declared this country
free forever from foreign rule.
From that day forward, Ameri-
cans were no longer rebels in arms
fighting AGAINST their country,
but free people fighting FOR
their country and its everlasting
independence.
The Fourth of July has always
been observed with patriotic en-
thusiasm. Let us hope it always
will be.
Patriotic enthusiasm is very
wonderful thing, and very neces-
sary :. perhaps more necessary to-
day than ever before in our prouu
history.
We should always be aware OF
those who would decry it.

1t has been kind of fun, hasn't
it, making and wearing pioneer
style dresses, and watching the
progress of local boards? l heard
