DANlELS-In the Lions Den
 There is no basic difference between closed doors on the meetings of government agencies and Russios iron curtoln That's the opinion expressed by MurIin Spencer chief of SeottIes Associated Press bureuu when he visited in Juneau recently
 Evidently Nr. Spencer had first-hund knowIedqe whereof he spoke If there's anything harder to get into than meeting of government men, where policies are formulated that will affect the lives of all AIuskons don't know what it is We met some pretty silly censorship regulations, when worked on military newspapers during the war; and while they made us boil at times could understand some justification tor that censorship.
 For non-miIitory meetings, in postwar AIosko we find none at uIl Why can't the press be allowed to know and to inform the people of the plans that being made for Alaska? We all have to live here and we all will have to live under those plans, Why can't have the right to protest while planning is still fornno tive enough that ideas can be changed? Why must we wait until rigid program is prepared before know what it is-ond then be forced to accept that plan, because "ts too late for changes now"
 We think the whole idea of q prepared hondout, to be released for publication following meeting, is ridiculous. Newspapers have q right to get their own story. How can news be fresh and new, with local slant, when all newspapers all over Alaska get exactly the same material? We ought to have the right to tell cur own story, and to tell it in style If gov- ern1ent men think necessary to okoy the draft of
 story before it's printed why most of us will agree to that.
 And why must always be led to believe that everything discussed in meeting carried through to final unonimty of opinion? We think difference of opinion is heolthy and we're dorned sure thot no group of human beings got together in session. where difference of opinion wasn't voiced Why can't we know and tell about that? If we have one idea about subject and you have another it's more than probable thot both of us can arrive at new idea thot will be better than the original idea of either of
 A difference of opinion stimulates thinking. Why can't newspaper tell about those differences and get its readers to thinking, too? =".*
 We're getting pretty disgusted with the whole gov- ernmento plan of meeting behind closed doors and talking in whispers. We're Americans our tax doI- lars are paying the salaries of those who are meet ing, virtually in secret We want to know what they re talking obout-to be able to read about it and disagree with it. if we feel that way That's the American way of doing things and we want to keep it that way

Catholic priests you've seen
them, no doubt many Of them. Per-
haps, you've talked with some and
even known one or more intimate
ly. If SO you have found them rath-
err regular human beings, haven't
you? Well, so they are-and so
they are not. Let us tell you briefly
The Catholic priest was once a
newborn baby-a boy baby. AS a
youth he chose his own career.
He applied at his diocesan semi
nary and was admitted after pass
ing rigid tests for strength of mind,
body, and character.
In the seminary he lived and
studied and prayed for about II
years studied for the first six
years Latin, Greek, modern Ian
guages, English, history, and math-
ematics; then came two years of
logic. psychology, ethics, advanced
physical science. Hebrew, and 9TH
er subjects. At the end of the
eighth year the academic degree or
Bachelor of Arts Recognized by
the State) was conferred on him.
Then he continued for four years
of post graduate work in Sacred
Scripture, dogmatic, moral, and
liturgy. And finally, by the laying
on of the hands of the Bishop, he
was ordained priest of God.
And SO, dear neighbor, when you
next see Catholic priest, you will
be looking at member of what is
undoubtedly the most highly edu-
Gated class of men in the world;
but, more than that, man who
las ST. Paul himself puts it,, TAX
en- from among men, is ordained
for men in things that appertain
to God"

Catholic Information
Just what is a priest?

Christ'S ambassador on earth. He
teaches Christ's truths as Christ
taught them. He administers
Christ's sacraments as Christ ad-
ministered them. At his daily Of
fering of the Holy Sacrifice of the
Mass, he continues till the end of
time Christ's own sacrifice of the
Last Supper and of Calvary. This
is Catholic belief.
Without the Catholic priests of
the early centuries, Gods revela-
tions to man would be now un-
known-His soul-saving graces be-
yound our reach; and all Christian
ity would be considered today as a
myth of 1900 years ago. From the
first Pentecost Sunday till this day,
the enemies of God, of Christi of
His Church, have realized this and
so have attempted to discredit, to
calumniate. to extinguish His holy
priest hood-so vainly, so foolishly
for Christ had promised Peter.
the Pope of His infant Church:
"the gates of hell shall not prevail
against it."
Catholic priests more than 300,-
900 of them ambassadors Of
Christ in every land! Strong, cour-
ageous men-God-loving, Godfear-
ng,humble men, who in the last
breath of their mortal life cry out
to the saints and sinners of their
flocks; pray, dear friends, for my
soul; because of him who has
received much, much is expected"
If it's anything Catholic. ask a
Catholic!
