the army, five of them overseas.
After his assignment as assistant
provost marshal of Iceland, he went
to England to build a camp for re-
Mobilization of u. S. soldiers. While
there he succeeded in returning
more than 5000 American youths
to useful service in the armed
forces.
AS a young major he was called
upon to take over direction of all
the German prisoners of war in
Southern France. This involved
the records and screening of some
25O,OOO prisoners, 10000 of whom
were in the camp for which he was
completely responsible.
This camp was named by more
than 1000 American troops, supple
mented by a battalion of French
Senegalese. These were later re-
placed by two companies from the
Polish army. The camp was COM
plete city in itself, with all activi-
ties commonly associated with COM
munlCy operations.
Flake later was called upon to
close each of the other large pris-
oner of war camps in France, after
searching out the war criminals
and segregating the Nazi draftees
who were legitimate citizens of
other nations.
After leaving the army, he went
to Germany as top civilian inves-
tigator with the Criminal Investi-
cation Department of the army.
He participated in tracking down
many of the postwar criminals in
Europe and was associated with
many of the leading criminal in
vestigators from other countries on
the Continent and in Northern
Africa.
He is married and resides at 719
East Willetta Street with his wife
and their 14-month-old daughter.

Letters To Editor
Dear Editor of the Sun:

Dear Editor of the Sun:
Members of the Mos1em Temple,
A.E.A.O.N.M.S., No. 79 of which I
am Illustrious Potentate, have ini-
tiated a get-acquainted crusade.
The object of this crusade is to ce-
ment more closely, friendship and
brotherly love, among various or
ganizations of the city. We feel
the need for unity and coordination
among people and organizations in
the community and state at large.
On last Sunday our organization
attended the first Institutional
Baptist Church as guest of the
pastor and members. The ovation
received and the sermon we heard
gave us new inspiration towards
our goal.
We realize that the spirit of
brotherhood is lacking in the land
of freedom. Brotherhood means
full equality and justice under the
law, to all peoples alike. The right
" i've, GdI1I, WOIk d1lu PAL LIClpdL0
in public affairs; the right to edu-
cate our chidrlen in all tax sup
ported institutions, are a few of
the principles of brotherhood.
Another aim of this crusade is to
foster love for ones fellowman and
serving them. This is practical. In
this effort you simply are filling
human wants by offering services
which means progress for all con-
cerned.
Work! We need lifework that
for ever keeps us growing; each of
whom can find joy and adventure.
The pledge of the Nobility: We
pledge ourselves to maintain ex-
acting high standards in our re-
spective community life, that de-
mocracy may become living real
ity.
James M. Christopher,
Illustrious Potentate.

Candidacy for Sheriff

ent sheriff's office is in reality a
waste of taxpayers money. pro-
pose to develop an organization of
men who will be able to apprehend
criminals, not leave it to the Off
GERS of other states, contrary to the
apparent current practice.
Eliminating these long, expen-
sive trips by the apprehension of
criminals in our own state or coun-
ty will insure maximum of protec-
ton at home at a minimum of cost.
"The two years I have spent in
the general insurance business in
Phoenix have left with me great
respect for the people who are sup
porting the community through
their investments of both business
capital and labor.
"I believe those who work for the
public should give an absolute max
imum of performance. This cannot
be possible under the rudderlesS di-
rection of the present officeholder.
"While with the Phoenix Police
Department, I worked on every
conceivable type of law enforce
ment detail, becoming completely
familiar with our local and county
situation. While in the army, I
was given posts of considerable re-
sponsibility, demanding administra-
tive and organizational ability. The
only time I was relieved of a COM
mand was to take more respon-
Sible assignment. I entered the
service as a private, was discharged
as a lieutenant-colonel."
Flake is 36 years old, native Of
Snowflake, and a graduate of Phoe-

the morning of March 80. on
many occasions both the defense

the Court to intervene and allow
the defendant to continue :.
Wolf had her to give an exhibit

on the table and the location and

'ACCA'S SHARE OF COMMUNITY CHEST
 COMES RIGHT BACK TO VALLEY KIDS

Valley children benefit directly by a contribution to the Commu- nifty Chest, drive chairman Mar win Slaughter pointed out today. The Palmer chapter of the Alaska Crippled Children's Association is a participating member in the Community Chest here. Last year the local ACCA, which is headed by Mrs. Victor Johnson, Mrs. Max Sherrod and Mrs. Norbert Swo- boda, received $350 from the Chest.
 MT. Slaughter said it is the plan of the Community Chest board to familiarize contributors with the activities of member agencies during the current drive, now in progress. He pre- sented a brief outline of ACCA's work for this week.
 The biggest job of ACCA is to build fund for the crippled chill dren's program of the Territorial Department of Health. Funds raised in Alaska are matched by Federal funds from the U. s. Chil- dren's Bureau. Last year ACCA contributed $25,O0O toward the crippled children's program. In addition, the organization gave

$4,600 to the Mt. Edgecumbe Hos pital at Sitka.
 One Valley child, hospitalized at Mt Edgecumbe, already has re- ceived more than $1O,OOO worth of care, MT. Slaughter reported. The child, victim of polio, has been hospitalized there for several years.
 The functions of ACCA are not limited to direct service, how ever. Mrs. Marshall Hoppin, head of ACCA, told of nine Valley children helped through pur- chase of orthopedic appliances and overnight care, in the past year. In three instances the As sociation even purchased lunches for Valley children who came to Anchorage to attend an eye clinic.
 Mrs. Hoppin further reported that in just four months of the past year, Valley children had re- ceived glasses, undergone eye surgery, ear plastic surgery, ton sillectomies, and corneal ulcer op- erations at ACCA expense. In addition, some Valley children were provided with hospital care in Sitka, Seattle and Chicago.

First, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh prize - those were the rewards a 12 pound, one-ounce salmon brought Carl Arvidson of Cordova in the first annual silver salmon derby, held at that city last week. Although B juveniles tried desperately hard, Carl was the only derby contestant to haul in a fish on derby day. He took his multi prize winner on a hand line.
 Adult prize winner John Cerino did almost as we'll in the prize lists in the second section of the derby. MT. Cerino's catches won him first prize, grand prize, fifth prize, first fish prize and smallest fish prize.
 The derby showed a net profit of $25.41, committee head John Byers reported. The money will be used to start a fund for the Cordova Izaak Walton Chapter, to be spent for planting fish and game in the Cordova area.

Buffalo TranspIan+ed To Copper River Area

The upper Copper River coun- try acquired a buffalo herd of seven animals-three bulls and four COWS, late last month, ac- cording to a Fish and Wildlife Service announcement this week. The FWS trapped the animals from the Big Delta herd, where they are becoming too numerous, and moved them to their new home in the Copper River coun- try.
 The agency is planning to move even more animals in the future. In the meantime the seven buff falo already transported are giv- ing Cordova hunters visions of the kind of steaks they'll be en- toying in another 10 years or so.
