PLAIN TALK
BY Alfred Segal
THE KIDS

Oh. our temple was filled to
overlooking that morning. The
congregation was even larger
than on Yom Kippur. You know
how it is on Yom Kippur. On
that day practically everybody
comes to schul to have a num-
Der of hours with God.
have never been deeply i'm
pressed by this sudden, hurried
penitence. Our friend, the we'll
known Mr.. Zilch, hasn't been in
a synagogue since last Yom Kip
pur. From then on 4ne went his
way with no religion at all. CEx-
cept maybe on Pesach when he
had seder)
But on Yom Kippur Mr.. Zilch
felt he should be doing something
about being man of Jewish re-
ligion. His interest in the matter
was nothing religiouslY social. He
had the idea that maybe it was
something to his personal inter-
est to be in schul on Yom Kippur.
Though he wasn't sure that he
could be eXculpated of his various
sins on Yom Kippur, he consider
ed that it was really no time to
speculate. Maybe there was some
thing in it, after all, and if he
went to schul on Yom Kippur
and tasted through the day it
might be good for him in the
coming. He had some deals on
the fire and he certainly wanted
to live to see them completed.
So he went to the Yom Kippur
service and hung around the syn
agogue all through the day. At
times. as the service got longer
and longer. Mr.. Zilch discovered
his mind wandering away from
the holy things. He was thinking
of the business he was at the
moment neglecting.
So it was with many of the
Zilches on Yom Kippur. There
came a time when the service of
Yom Kippur palled on them al
together and they went out for
fresh air on the front steps of the
shul. Passersby could get the
idea that maybe there were more
worshippers on the steps than in
the Schul itself.
But all this is history now un-
til next Yom Kippur. I am think
ing gratefully of the overlooking
crowd that was in our temple a
week or so after Yom Kippur. It
was Simchath Torah. the Rejoic-
inc for the Law. You couldn't
get a seat if you came late that
morning. Standing room! The
worshippers wern't there in their
own interest. No sins to be rid
of! They had come there toward
The future of their children and
grandchildren. What would be-
come of these kids as Jews? They
were happy to be there to give
testimony to their hope that it
would be all right with their
children.
In our temple Simchath Torah
has been established as day OF
conservation for little kids - s.
and 6 years old - who are just
starting on their way to being
religiously Jewish. At the NOM
ent of conservation the children
marched down the center aisle
toward the altar, bearing flow
ers. They assembled the altar and
were blessed by the rabbi. Little

Air Force Can't Do 1t; Navy Comes Back

SEATTLE, (P)-Navy air trans ports were ordered back to Alas kan duty yesterday after the Air Force tried for two months to haul freight and passengers to northern points long served by the navy.
 In the shuffle, however, Seattle lost the Alaska Navy Transport squadron long based at Sand Point Naval Air Station. This squadron, VR-5, attached to the Fleet Logis- tic Air Wing, will go to Moffet Field, Calf.
 YRS will be replaced by squad ron VR-3, which also will make it's headquarters at Moffet Field. The new squadron will fly from the California base to Kodiak, Adak and other Alaskan points.
 There were indications that all Seattle-area stops will be made at McChord Field, near Tacoma, in stead of at Sand Point.
 The YRS squadron, which es- tablished a perfect air safety rec ord in its long assignment to the Alaskan route, was shifted from the northern service originally when the Military Air Transport Service decided to take over the route. Air Force planes based at Great Falls, Mont, since then have been supplying Kodiak and Adak, along with mainland Alas ka points.
 The MATS. said in an official release that the latest plane-shuf- fle would strengthen its Alaskan Air Transport service.

One of the most popular poets of all time was Henry Wadsworth LongfelloW. He was born on Feb. 27, 1907, and died in 1882. His poems were translated into all European languages. It is said that 1000 copies of "The Courtship of Miles Standish" was sold the first day in London. His poems have been memorized by many. There are more entries in the British Museum catalogue for Longfel- low than any other poet except Tennyson. A total of 357 entries can be found for Longfellow.
 He was born in Portland, Maine, and became a well-behaved stu dent at school. Nathaniel flaw thorne was one of his classmates at Bowdoin College. Once he though of becoming a lawyer but he was not gifted for argumenta- ton. He became professor of modern languages at Harvard which position he held for twenty years. He enjoyed conversations with people. Longfellow contrib uted a famous aboriginal epic to American literature in the poem "Hiawatha."
 The Nome High School is very proud of the basketball team which returned last Monday after noon from the Anchorage tourna- ment. They defeated many teams at the tournament including Val dez, WaSilla, and the Kodiak Ma val Air Base. The scores were de- cisive ones and in the last deter mining games we almost won the championship. Several of our boys won places on the mythical "All Star Team" The boys winning those honored positions were: Harold Bell, Clarence Wllloya and Gilbert Ozenna. Juanita Eager strom and the cheering section are to be highly complimented for their enthusiasm. ........

WARDS" OF GOVERNMENT
 (The> Alaska Weekly)

When the American Negroes were freed from slavery they had, and in some instances still do have, some rather tough going Bu by and large they valued their freedom highly that the vast majority of them made every effort to be worthy of both the responsibilities and privileges of full citizenship The result is that to- day the Negroes of America largely self supporting constantly advancing educatOnally and in short doing thoroughly credtable job of taking their place in the society of which they part.
 The educational attanments and success of numer- individual Indians should be sufficient proof that there is justification for the belief that the Indians are less capable of assuming full citizenship than the Negroes But here we have entrenched bureau cracy to face and that makes great deal of difference
 That bureaucracy has grown until today we have 12OOO federal employees taking of 233OOO reserv ton Indians, about one employee to twenty Indians who are still classified as 'WardS of the government As the number of caretakers has increased the self sufficiency of the reservation Indian has declined until it is now claimed that thousands of them would die of starvation if the Great White Father should them adrift They might at that for that is what happens to people who are wards" of government.
 There point of satisfaction yet discovered for the lust for power which otivates the average bureaucra Add to the bureaucratic urge for and still power the efforts of the sefapponted do-gooders and the professional Savours for fee and you have the Alaska reservation picture in nutshell
 The natives of Alaska have been making tremendous strides Any unprejudiced observer is forced to admit that within the past decade the natives of the Ter ritory have gained in stature good citizens in making confidence in their future beyond question of doubt
 But the bureaucrats aided and abeted by the Currys and the dogooders determined to reduce them to the of wards We have long advocated that these American citizens be accorded by the courts any rights which legally theirs and then let them accept the responsibilities of citizenship along with it's so-caed priv
 eges Every citizen has to expect that and that is all he has a right to expect.

Alaska Could Carve
 Out Mighty State With Statehood
Continued from Page One)


 the economy of the United States already has reached immense amounts.
 A population is required to de- velop the resources of Alaska, he said. asserting that the needed population is certain to follow statehood.
 Alaska, Peterson continued, is the nations last frontier, and needs statehood and more popula- ton to aid in it's own defense and that of the nation.
 Bartlett said statehood will not solve all of the problems confront ing Alaska but that statehood will help more than any other one things to solve them.
 He reviewed the status of Alas ka since it was purchased from Russia in 1867 for $7,5O0,OOO.
 If admitted to the Union, Alas ka, with it's 586,OOO square miles of land, would be the largest state.
 The Delegate said that through the years, governmentally speak ing, "handcuffs were placed on Alaska" and "were locked tighter than in the cast of other Terri tories"
 And the opening of those handcuffS, which can only be brought about by statehood" he continued, ought to, and in fact would, enable the pioneer hands of those in Alaska and those who will go there, to carve a mighty new state for this Union from our last western frontier"
 He blamed government regula- tions for slow development of the Territory.
 Statehood brought rapid devel- opment of other territories, he said, and predicted a similar growth would follow with Alaska.
 Alaska has a greater popula- ton now than did 16 territories when they weer admitted to the Union, he added.
 The Delegate said that the Ter ritory is the closest United States land to Russia, with only three miles separating them at one point.
 eff Alaska had two United States Senators and a Representa- tive in the Congress there would be voting strength in behalf of adequate security measures for that region, and for the United States, that simply does not exist now," Bartlett said.
 "To build up Alaska to its pop ulation will increase, so that it's business will expand and its in- dustry will grow, will be to strengthen our defensive position.
 "Then and then only will it. be unnecessary for our armed forces to ship from the United States proper practically everything they need"
 Bartlett said that at other times in the past statehood has been granted because the nations in- terests demanded such action.
 That, he said, is the case of Alaska now.
 To-day 100000 Alaskans in Alaska await your verdict on Statehood" he said.
