MORE TRAINS, BIGGER CREWS TO TACKLE
 ALASKA'S SUMMER FREIGHT SHIPMENTS

More frequent freight train schedules and larger gangs for handling the freight will take care of Alaska's delivery problems this summer, Col. John P. John son of the Alaska Railroad an- nounced this week. Beginning late this month, two freights a day will haul commercial freight out of Seward.
 The ports of Anchorage and Whittier will handle only railroad and military materials, it was dis closed. The Ocean Dock at An chorage will be opened this sum- mer, to receive materials con- signed to the Fire Island military base.
 To help move what is estimated to be the largest freight shipments ever to reach the Territory, the Railroad has ready for service 73 locomotives, 603 box cars, 405 flat cars, 569 goldolas, 177 hoppers and 137 refrigerator cars.
 Beginning in mid May, two pas senger vessels and two to three freighters are expected to dock at Seward each week.

ed by the N.A.A.C.P. was chaired
by Lincoln Ragsdale. Mr.. Noah
Griffin, Western Regional Direct
tor of the organization also made
a short talk.
Mr.. Eichenauer, a member of the
white race, who realized at an
early age, the injustices imposed
on minorities had this to say:
Everyone should love and re-
spect his parents and I do, but I
have not accepted everything they
told me as the gospel truth.
You see, my mother is from
Galax, Virginia, and I grew up
with the Negro in his place" at

background, but still no crusader
for equal rights for all races.

realized that something was wrong

 The Pacific Coast Leagues second round of openers had everything big crowds, great pitching, home runs and free peanuts.
 In the crowd department, biggest success was Portland's afternoon and night doubleheader with Oak land which drew a total of 19,39l fans. The Beavers showed their ap- preciation by winning both game by the identical scores of 7-2. Red Adams pitched the afternoon VIII and Roy Helser got credit for the night job.
 Pinky Woods of Hollywood threw a three-hitter to spoil Seattles de- but before 13.494 hometowners Woods had one-hitter on the fire until the ninth when Lonnie Frey lashed line double, actually Seattle's only honest hit. Bill Schu- ster followed with a floating fly that dropped safe, but Woods quickly put out the Rainiers' fire. The Stars won 40.
 Another fine pitching job was turned in at San Francisco by Elmer Singleton who retired the last F men in order to beat Sacramento GA. He threw no hit, no run ball the last five innings after being little wobbly at the start.
 Los Angeles beat San Diego B. to stay atop the standings witt neighbor Hollywood Elbie Fletcher and Lloyd Lowe did some fancy stickwork to keep the Angels ahead Each had four hits, including : home apiece.

Keeping Scandinavian Record Clean
Politically Is Stunned In Everett
By A. BJERKESETH

The Scandinavian group of vo-
terS in the State of Washington
are perhaps one of the biggest
blocks in the so-called foreign
field and of course every politi-
clan seeking office is more than
anxious to get on the right side
of the Scandinavians with the
possibility of getting a big chunk
of their votes. You cannot blame
the politician for trying, that's
more or less his business, but
when you see certain Scandina-
VANS stepping out and, on behalf
of their landsmen, maintain that
they can deliver their votes, then
it is time to call them to task.
1t is true that the Scandinavians
in the State of Washington sew
eral times have rallied around
their "own" candidates but in
such cases the candidate usually
has been an Outstanding man in
the political field deserving their
support.
Most of our Scandinavian socie-
ties are in the Fraternal class ana
do not ordinarily mix into politics
but when election ii m comes
some of our misguided leaders
seem tempted to build a fortress
of their own from where they can
take one or more stabs on the po-
