For All The Labor Agitdtors
And Troublemdkers

After all these years. the truth about unions beginn
ing dawn in high places This day should give lot
satisfaction every union who has been called
troubemaker AS who among hasn't? Even the college
professors beginning to that labor agators are
not troublemakers, at all.
thesis this subject read recently at meeting
of Allied Social Science organizations in New York. The
author was Joseph Sinister of the University of Buffalo,
Shsters thesis that unions perform many services above
and beyond the fixing of hours and working condi
tons The important of these he finds the effect
union policies have improving industrial morale. Here's
the way he analyzes it:
businessmen knew in dollars and cents how much good
morale in the shop lowers their labor COST they would
to it that morale in the shop kept at the highest pitch
Actually there is accurate to the cost OF
bad morale AS result employers in highly competitive in
dusres don't budget much money attention to raise the
spirits of the and women in the shop.
businessman may be able to get by despite bad NOR
ae but society can't To country good morale among
working people is extremely important In fact, Sinister
says is absolutely necessary condition to orderly
evolution of social and economic system The unions he
points out through their various policies end to improve
industrial morale very greatly thus inducing private bus
ness to assume responsibility for value which society
values very highly but which competitive business ignores
too frequently"
This is a fine compliment to all union troublemakers
who have been beaten and jailed scoded and owned for
many years 1t is also warning to every union member
When there for trouble make it. Under system
up the members of trade unions to take of their
own conditions and their morale. If DON'T we're

Americu's S Way

Every March the American Red Cross to the peo-
pie of this country for support of its program This pro-
gram entails responsibilities decreed by federal statute re-
sponsbties of national and international that con-
tinue both in war and peace.
The response of the people is voluntary 1t for each
individual to decide how much give of his time and his
money to assist in carrying out these responsibilities NO
one says what the individual must do.
Yet the peope-n the little towns in the rural DISTRICTS
in the big cesaccept the challenge after year and
voluntarily make the Red Cross responsibilities their bus
ness They take pride in shouderng their neghbors bur
dens when the sudden hurricane the forest fire. the flash
flood sweep away homes and No one tells them
they must help They respond to the needs OF their fellows
in the pioneer spirit of hepfuness that is their heritage
The response of Americans not only at fund raising
time but throughout the year. to every part OF the Red
Cross programbood safety service to veterans and the
armed forces and their families nursing disaster nterna
tionaI activities and other servicesis never failing
The men in industries and professions, the women in
homes and in the business world the boys and girls in
schools and colleges make up the American Red Cross and
work through it, give through it, with sense of compu-
sion
This is Americas way.

Futile Operation

The Council of State Chambers of Commerce preslm-
ably has the interests of the businessmen of the 4S
very much at heart.
How, then does it explain its opposition to giving the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation authority to lend
money to small business?
Or it's opposition to valley authorities by which more
electric power would be generated for industrial use?
Or its fight against more funds for public works which
would stimulate business activity?
Or its stand against increased social security which
would enable recipients buy goods from their
chants?
II appears that the Council is cutting off its to

PURCHASE HOME

After IS years of active operation
of the Winfield Home, Miss Minnie
Field has sold her property to Mr.
and Mrs. Peter j. Nickel of AUX Bay
who have taken over the manage
ment of the Winfield Home and
school.
Minnie Field, who has been called
"Alaskas greatest mother" came
to Alaska more than thirty years
ago and was employed in the Fed
eral Jail under four United States
Marshals, Tanner, Beaumont, White
and Mahoney
Before her retirement she hac
started her home for dependent
children and took over its active
management when she left federal
employ.
Mr.. and Mrs. Nickel have been in
Alaska for the past six years. For
three years they lived in Douglas
then moved to AUX Bay where they
have a home.
The Nickels will continue to live
at AUX Bay, and new building
constructed ON their property last
summer, will continue to be USED
as a Gospel Service Center" which
includes the K.YB. Club Time
Bible Book Store and Library.
Winfield" will continue to be
the name of the home and school
and the operation will be that OF
a children's home, Mr.. Nickel said.
I'VE hope within a short time to
have trained workers at the Min
field Home who will also act as
supervisors for the children. We
plan to make improvements at the
home so that its standards will be
equal to homes in the states. 1t is
our plan, too, to cooperate with the
Territory's welfare agencies" Mr.
Nickel said
Visitors will be welcomed at the
Winfield Home and regular visiting
days and hours will be announced.

trip to Juneau and outside.
He is fascinated by the South
east Alaska's lush green scenery
especially the trees.
II love trees" he said while
making "a little design for a
new friend here. Some day
want to live where there are lots
of them"
Ahgupuk plans to be here again
in November About then, or SOON
er, a new edition of 'Igloo Tales"
should be out, featuring a pictor-
ial glossary in which Eskimo words
are not only translated into Eng
fish, but illustrated with Georges
little designs
The first printing of "Igloo
Tales" in 1914, was in 5000 copies,
the secoiM 5000 1t is published
by the Bureau of Indian Affairs
at Haskell Institute, Lawrence, Kas.
Since visiting Juneau, Ahgupuk
has spent a week in Anchorage,
where he was commissioned to dc
two wall panels for a lounge in
the Parsons Hotel He is enthus-
iastic about executing murals, a
larger style which he has recently
adopted.
Beginning his recent two-month
trip, Ahgupuk accepted the invita-
ton Of a friend to attend the an
nual Intertribal Ceremonial at Gal
lup, N. NJ, and enter the art show
in connection with the colorful des-
ert festival.
He entered Is etchings and
watercolors.
In the exhibit of work by native
artists from all over the United

States, he won first, second, third
and grand prizes. The first award
was for one of his famous versions
of an Eskimo reindeer roundup.
His entries were in sizes ranging
from by inches to 10 by 36. He
was the only Eskimo artist repre-
scented in che show.
George met several Alaska friends
in Seattle and Gallup. Elda ia
cobson, formerly on the staff of
the Mission Nursing School at
Bethel, called to him one day on
the street in Gallup, and he also
met Vincent Benson, who used to
teach at Igloo, and former tea
cher at Deering.
After visiting in Coronado, Mex
leo, and Fort Bragg, Calf, Ahgu-
puk went to Seattle. There, he
kept running onto old friends
among them Howard Rock, for
merly of Point Hop, whose etched
designs are on many fine ivory
steak knives.

his friend, Edward l.. Keithahn
asked here.

The days are too short. You think
it is five minutes, and it has been

Traffic and city noises didn't
bother him, although he prefers
the life and space of Shishmaref
where he was born and lived most
of his life; or Noorvik where he
went to school; or Nome, where
he and his family moved two years
ago.
On his first visit to Juneau, he
exchanged "reminiscences with Kei-
thahn, who was his teacher II
Shishmaref from 1928 to 1925, ano
whom he had not seen since grade
school days.
Remember when we go hunt

Followed more remember whens.
Keithahn translated the Eskimo
folk stories for "Igloo Tales" while
he was at Shishmaref, but the book
"hung around" until the '40's when
Ahgupuk Illustrated the stories.
When told that "Igloo Tales has
sold almost 5000 copies, someone

C"Sinik-puk' means big sleep" in
Innuit.l
Asked what his name means in
his language, George arose, stood

The artist was about IL year old

other of Keithahns pupils, Kara

They have four children whose
names, English and Innuit, and
ages are: Ruth Kukvilenna, Il;
Henry Kukozoak, 10; Ralph Onna-
nook, s; and Stella Unalena, 4.
Keithahn has an album of All
gupuk's school-day drawings, and
there are two characteristic Ahgu-
puk wall panels in the Museum.
One is an example Of his earlier
panels; that at the University of
Alaska Museum is about 1929, he
thinks.
Ahgupuk has made more than 80

Besides visiting the Museum and
seeing Juneau friends, Ahgupuk
visited townspeople who are pa

He sailed to the westward on the
Alaska, planning to be in Anchor
