Defenses Improving
Despite Fund Cuts,
.Leva Tells Reserves

Despite budget cuts, the defense
potential of the United States is
improving because existing funds
are being used better, Marx Leva
Assistant Secretary of Defense,
reported last night.
He was principal speaker at a
dinner of the Navy Chapter of
lthe Reserve officers Association,
held in the Naval Gun Factory.
Mr.. Leva traced progress made
under unif1cation and said the
whole project has contributed
strongly to maintenance of world
peace.
Cites Airlift.
He cited the Berlin Airlift and
the part played in it by the Mill
tary Air Transport Service as an
illustration of how all the services
worked together in the interests
Of the Nation.
In commenting on defense
budget limitations, Mr.. Leva
pointed out the job was mot so
much to cut the fat as to transfer
it into muscle"
AS an example, he said that
while there are fewer ships in the
active fleet than there were a few
years ago, more of them are ready
to fight. In all branches of the
services, he said efficiency is being
increased by cutting down admin
stration and overhead costs.
George Installed.
We now have a sound core" on
which to base future defense needs,
Mr.. Leva said. 1--WE have a stronger
Department of Defense with re-
duced cost to the taxpayers.
George E. George was installed
to succeed Richard K. Lyon as
president of the reserve chapter.
Others who took Office were Mil
ton P. Thomas, senior vice presi-
dent; Frank E. Mann, junior vice
president, and James K. Nc
Cracken, treasurer.

SUPERINTENDENT
ACCOMPLISH MUCH
AT 3-DAY MEETING

Long, concentrated sessions in
vclving statistics and other figures
occupied Alaska school superintend-
ents for NEST of their three-day
Advisory Conference last week.
Several important matters were
accomplished, according to Dr..
James C. Ryan, Territorial Edu-
cation Commissioner.
The group will make three rec
concentrations to the Territorial
Beard of Education before its meet
ing early in 1851. These concern
formula for assigning the num-
Der of teachers to an individual
school; a request for legislation to
change the method of paying Ter
ritorial refunds to incorporated
school districts, and an amendment
to requirements for high school
graduation.
Although there are other details,
the change in provision would, in
effect, eliminate biology as a def
mite requirement.
A method for making school re-
funds was worked out, but some
points could not be considered for
lack of time.
The group, which numbered % of
Alaska's rs superintendents, adj
mitted the Mt. Edgecumbe School
and Sheldon Jackson High School
to the Alaska Athletic Association,
specifying that these schools will
be bound by the same rules as
those for Territorial schools.
Mt. Edgecumbe is operated by
the Alaska Native Service, and
Sheldon Jackson, by the Presby-
terrain Church.
Along with the Thursday Friday
Saturday conference, DR.. Ryan, as
chairman, called a meeting of the
Alaska State Committee, North
west Association Of Secondary
Schools.
Nineteen applications for l950-5l
membership in the association were
eceived-eighteen renewals and "a
new one from Kodiak Naval Oper-
ating Base.
The Committee (Ryan, Sterling S.
Sears, Juneau, and Theron Cole,
Sitka) will recommend them all to
the December regional conference
in Spokane, accompanying the re-
port with comments concerning
credits.
OF the 26 superintendent, only
those from Pelican, Unalaska, Sell
dovia and Eagle were unable to
attend.
Not a superintendent, but an in
crested party attending the confer
ence was Luther Case, head OF the
education Department, University
If Alaska.

Capt.,Mrs. Darlington
On Month S Visit Here

He's Uncle Hill to half the town
of Oak Harhor, Wash, where he
also has been mayor.
He's known as skipper along the
Yukon and the Stikine.
But it's being grandfather to the
three young children of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. H. (BilD Darlington, Jr.,
that Capt. w. Hill Darlington is
enjoying for a month.
He and Mrs. harrington have
just made the acquaintance OF their
youngest grandson, 8-month-old
Edward John, since arriving Sat
urday on the Princess Louise. The
Juneau family has visited them
once since their last trip here
three years ago.
Alaska is really home to the
whole family. The Captain has been
coming here since 1897. From 1916
to 1943, he operated four Hazel B.
vessels on the Stikine River, the
Hazel B /, 2, 3 and 4.
Then he and his brother, Sid,
chartered the Aksala ("Alaska,
spelled backward from the White
Pass and Yukon Railway, and OPP
Grated the vessel for two years.
Their first load was $500 miles
down the river, 200 up the Tanana
and 400 to Galena. In their five
trips, they took 5000 tons OF
freight, with the boat and four
barges. When the war ended, they
took the whole string up to White
horse, picking up the junior Bar
ringtons at Eagle.

at Dawson in 1913" said the cap
tain, "and it wasn't long before
she was Mrs. Darlington She had
lived in Skagway since she was 3
years old.
After the war the Captain bought
a mems furnishings store at Oak
Harbor, the Naval Air Station on
WILDLY Island, near Seattle.

aska once in while. Home, you
know.

ANS Education Man
Returns from Visit
To Coastal Schools

Martin N. B. Holm. education
specialist of the Alaska Native Serv-
ice, returned yesterday afternoon
from a seven weeks trip visiting
the ANS schools along the Alaska
coast.
On September 2 he flew to Point
Barrow where he joined the ANS
supply ship, North Star. Holm ar
rived there the morning of Septem-
Der 8 at o'clock with his plane,
making a turnaround to deliver Is
students to the Mt. Edgecumbe vo-
cational school, He reports that the
students arrived at the school the
same day utilizing Pan Am out of
Fairbanks and Alaska Coastal Air
lines out of Juneau.
Schools visited by Holm were on
the Arctic Ocean, Kotzebue Sound,
Seward Peninsula, Little Diomede
Island, King Island, Gambell and
Sevonga on ST. Lawrence Island,
Mekoryuk on Menivak, Norton
Sound, Taunak on Nelson Island,
Akutan and Perryville in the Aleu-
tians and five on Kodiak. There
were total of 81 of the 96 ANS
schools visited by Holm on his
5000 mile yearly trip to the coastal
and island schools.
About $50 King Islanders and
their skin boats were transported
from Nome where they work during
the summer months longshoring and
carving in ivory. The larger OF the
skin boats measuring from 81 to
SO feet in length can carry a total
of 81 barrels of oil with an cupboard
motor as the power unit, Holm re-
ports. A total of 1900 tons of freight
were lightered in at Nome from the
North Star in four days.
The North Star was able to cut
81 days from her schedule because
of the lack of ice in the Arctic
Ocean. The weather was excellent
for the trip, Holm continued.
Bush pilots aided Holm by beach
landings in visiting schools at St
Michael, Stebbens, Koyuk, White
Mountain and Solomon. This was
his twenty-fourth supervisory trip
in 20 months. He reports that the
new school building at Kivalina was
being used for the first time. En-
rollment is up in most OF the
schools. The school year starts dur
ing the last part of August or the
first part of September in the ANS
schools.

RESPECT PEDESTRIANS RIGHTS

Every driver of motor vehicle has
tender regard for the rights of the pedes-
trian when@he happens to be the pedes7
trian. Cd such occasions, they are in
position to understand that approximate
~ 65 per cent of all persons injured or
killed in automobile accidents are pedes-
trians.
After a narrow escape from some
driver, they are then willing to believe
that a pedestrian is entitled to safety and
that whether he is in the right or wrong,
the driver should protect him.
We hope that every automobile driver
in Monroe County who reads this, will
make up his or her mind to drive care
fully, having regard for the presence
of children in the streets, the location of
schools and Fairgrounds and the natural
tendency of children to ignore danger of
which they are not fully aware
let's all give a thought to the children
particuIary They furnish ene-third of
the fatalities that result from automobile
accidents. They are entitled to- safety
and If drivers do not give it to them, then
il is time for the State to step in and,
by laws strictly enforced, to see that the
children of Florida have as nearly absolute
protection as can be obtained.

WHAT IS YOUR MENTAL STATUS?

The average citizen of Monroe County
would not be hurt by careful analysis of
his or her mental state
While most of us usually like to boast
of our intelligence, the fact is that few of
us ever try to do more than assert our
opinions, many of them picked up years
ago and never tested since that day.
Seekers after truth, if such there be,
should resolutely attempt to master the
new facts that detailed research has re-
yealed in all important lines of human
thought, Philosophical inhabitants, if
still conscious, should, it seems, reset their
theories in order to conform to recently
discovered facts.
To the many youngsters who are at
tending schools and colleges, we call at
tention to the necessity of regarding their
training as starting point in the search
for truth. When every graduate shall
leave college with the clear understand
ing that what he has learned is nothing
but the base of education, we may put it
down that our teaching is amounting to
something.
