OIL AND WAR

On occasion, during the recent war, there not enough fuel oil in the New York fill the bunkers of the battleship Missouri according to statement gently made by Fleet Admiral Chester w. Nmitz, at San Francisco
 Deploring the lack of oil storage facilities around the world the chief architect of our victory Japan said that this might explain our interest in Middle East oi Moreover he pointed out that using oil to- day at faster than did during the and that if conflict should begin he doesn't believe there is enough oil in the Western Hemisphere to meet our needs.
 The Admiral revealed that only storage in the world meets the needs of the Navy This is the under ground storage the island of Oahu, which has cap- acity of six million barrels of fuel oil.

 It pointed out that the great killing diseases of kind can be eradicated Moreover, projects for long range economic development of the world requires that they be eliminated this goal is to be obtained Never theeSs, governments and legislatures throughout the world show some reluctance to appropriate money for the fight for health.
 The United States it should be noted, is expected to contribute thiryve per cent of the total budget This is relatively small amount in comparison with the sums available to the American government Neverthe- less the principle behind the appropriation recognizes disease as the common enemy of mankind and its erad cation as the common duty of all nations

Alaska Political Whitewash

In one evening we the people have been led from
he morass of Democratic party bungling and de-
iousness into the light of understanding and purity
We refer to Pinkertons letter describing how his
Democratic Precinct Committee recently became first

scandal over the Palmer airport not scandal

Pinkerton, who sounds buoyed by the recent mon
political" visit Dr. Gruening made to Ketchikan,
hasens into print to tell us that his Precinct Com
ittee dsowns parentage of the fishermens licensing
law The fact remains that his party fathered the
egslation pushed it through the legislature, and
following the close of the session beat their chest
in satisfaction the great tax measures they mao
adopted And DR.. Gruening opned that 1t was the
,est legislature in Alaskas history Insofar as this
particular bill is concerned only has to look at
the halibut landings in Ketchkan to see why Pnker-
ton has to get to audience with some sort OF a
story before October.
The constructive offering of criticism which Pink
aron now plaintively requests was made during the
949 sessions of the legislature and fell on the deaf
ears of the Gruenng inspired legislators We are
slapped on the wrist for repeating our complaint
against the fshermens licensing law but We 1eel IL

life of our city than any single thing we know Of

nittee wants to whitewash the three Ketchkan leg

It really should be banned when you think of
the influence it may have on school children, or
adults who may be prone to fall under the spell OF
such perverted thinking
The editorial when boiled down and the scum
of the Democratic party brew removed says that any
fraud worked on the Federal government is ustfled
No holds are barred in the battle for Federal funos

Ancorage Times will be able to convince anyone that
black is white that crooked deal can be JuStlfled
While it seems too academic to mention, we
wonder if the Anchorage Times and his left end at
Ketchkan are aware of the fact that tax money Goes
not belong to some stranger. That such raids on
the treasury means that someone will have to pay
higher taxes ao make up for the inflated value the
palmer gang set on their airport property. Needless
to say that someone is YOU.

PRIVATE RESPONSIBILITY

In time of war, it is not unusual
for a people to become deeply con-
cerned over details. Where is Pu-
san? What did Averell Hartman
say to General Macarthur?
All this is interesting, but it
divorces the mind from our major
problem-the answer to which will
decide what our world will be, no
matter whether battles are won or
lost.
Obviously something happened
between the years 1914 and 1850
which altered the course of west
ern civilization and of American
history and life. That alteration
has not been for the better. 1t
has brought us, to date, three gen.
eral wars and an economic dis
location of great depth. It's social
consequences are just beginning TO
appear in the changed character
of our family life.
Walter Hoving, merchant, put
it this way:
"Why are we so confused? Is it
possibly because so many Of cur
basic beliefs were under fire during
the first half Of the twentieth CEN
fury? Beliefs that we used to take
for granted suffered from constant
and vigorous attack. Take our
religious beliefs for example. The
initial assault on religion came
from science. Science set itself UP
as having an omnipotence Of its
own Many people instead of rec
ognizing that science was merely
discovering the laws of God were
led to believe that science itsel!
was God. They were made to fee
that the spiritual basis for the
universe was oldfasllioned ard OBJ
solete"
This is a clinical diagnosis of q
deep social illness, namely. that
the vast accumulation OF unrelated
data has had the effect of separ-
ating us from the essential char.
acteristic of western civilization
which is, private, personal, indiWd.
ual responsibility.
But what it comes to is that not
a majority, or a mass or mob
or committee, nor even a minor
ity, can assume responsibility fol
the conduct of the individual il
the presence of God.
This concept Of personal respon-
sibility had the broadest historical
consequences, for it evoked the doc.
trine of personal liberty and O
political and economic freedom. Or
the political side, it destroyed thu
concept of despotism and estab
lished the principle that good gol
eminent is one in which the choice
is made, in an orderly fashion, b.
the people themselves. On the &c
