voIume VII, no.
We hope that you will notice
that today's issue is Number
l of Volume VII of Stewards
newspaper, "The only news
paper in the world that gives
a boot about Seward, Alaska"
This volume, the beginning of
new year, is dedicated, as in
the past to only news that is
fit to print. Nothing dirty, sour
rilous or to the detriment Of
Seward ever appears in this
paper Anything mean or dis
creditable about the city, its
government or it's people that
reaches print may be sometimes
found in other papers, but not
in this one.
of the United States is at stake.
No segment of the American
people could be more fervent in
their desire for peace than those
who have felt the hardships and
pain of actual war F.. as has every
blessed member of the American
Legion.
Today let every one of us re-
dedicate our lives to the principles
set forth in the Declaration of In
dependence, born TIA years ago
this day:
1--WE hold these truths to be self
evident, that all men are created
equal. that they are endowed by
their Creator with certain inalien-
able rights, that among these are
life, liberty and the pursuit of hap
piness.'
But the real significance of
independence Day is not alone
what we Americans do on the
Fourth of July . but also what
we do on the fifth and sixth and
every other day of every month in
the year.
Anyone can stand for the Star
Spangled Banner or wave a flag.
But it took a great deal more than
that for our forefathers to win the
independence of the United States
{. and it has taken great deal
more for many of us i. yes, and
it may take even more for us and
our descendants to preserve the
liberty that is our precious heri-
tage.
Probably no more solemn note
was sounded than by that sterling
patriot John Adams who, after af-
fixing his signature to the Declare
ton of Independence TIA years ago,
said: Il am well aware of the tot!
and blood and treasure that it will
cost us to maintain this Declare
ton, and support and defend these
United States"
After the parades and speeches
are all over and the last sky
rocket has been set off :. . it might
be well worth while for us to sit
down quietly and mediate earnest
ly on the true significance Of indie
pendence Day and the response
biltieS of American citizenship to-
day +. and tomorrow :. and for
all time.
Whether this Country of ours
lasts depends on whether we take
seriously the words of the Declara-
ton of independence. Our survival
as free people rests on whether
we conscientously discharge all our
obligations as good citizens. True
patriotism does not mean Just
talking about good citizenship. 1t
means practicing good citizenship.
1t means ACTION!

ISD Head Gives Latest Information On School

With this money the board is purchasing certain fixtures that will be adaptable to the new building, and has paid $6, 000 to the architect. In- stallation of new siding on the main school building will also be paid out of the tobacco tax fund, Hughes pointed out. Money from the fund cannot be used for operational ex- penses.
 At the present time the need for additional space is compelling the board to take all monies available for re- novation of such additional space as will accommodate the ever-increasing enrolment, Hughes pointed out.
 We began the 1850 session with 300 students and we now have 360 students, which in

 Meanwhile, John c. Hug hes. president of the Inde- pendent School District board. said that the plans for the new school have recently taken a second place since original negotiations for General Services Admins tration aid were initiated. /, ''The school has fallen be- hind other projects for two reasons; the site selecte' is at a point removed from utility service and would necessitate new installation in order to make the construction at that site practical; and the me- chanical act of the transfer of the site, although it has been acquired, has not been con- pleted.
 However, Hughes, added the transfer of title should be completed soon. He explained that the land office states that the title should be conveyed to the city rather than the school district, as there is no pro- vision in the law for giving title to a school district.
 Although the federal government is reducing ex- penditures for anything but defense projects, Hughes pointed out, 'the possibility of obtaining federal aid for the school is not. entirely out of view. It is possible,' he added, that within the req sonable near future funds will be obtained for the construc- ton of a school even though the GSA procedure has been stalled.
 Congress" he pointed out. ''has passed legislation in the recent past which makes federal aid available for con- munities affected by defense construction. It is the hope of the school district board that the housing project which seems reasonably certain will impress upon the federal agencies the need for a new school, and therefore force the appropriation.
 The school district has taken no steps for a local bond issue, Hughes explained, except a preliminary survey because the districts taxable wealth is still insufficient to assume the burden of building the type of school the board

Israeli Panic Buying
BY The Assoeiaied Press

TEL AVN, Israel, Aug. 29.-An
Israeli government SOS today
brought an unofficial American
mission flying here to help stop a
runaway imitation.
While crowds stormed stores in
panic buying and banks for heavy
Withdrawals. black marketeers
thrived at gouging.
Mems suits, without ration cou-
pons, are selling for as much as
$3.50 each. Shoes bring $50 a
pair. A package of American
cigarettes, $1.04. Soap is 10 cents
a bar on the free" market.
The almost hysterical rush to
convert cash into goods appar-
emily is due, for one thing, to a
public fear that the government
is about to extend its rationing
decree.
The Israeli Finance Ministry,
which has been issuing public re-
assurances, blames false reports
in the Swiss press for starting a
run on the banks.
Official financiers claimed the
sharp rise in bank Withdrawals
and money in circulation was not
imitation. The Finance Ministry
issued statements that "the panic
among the people is completely
unfounded."
An overseas appeal from Premier
David Ben-Gurion is bringing some
40 American Jewish leaders by
plane from the United States for
conferences with the Premier next
Sunday.

Plow Hitching Said to
Be Common Problem

Of tractors get sore shoulders,
more pillow bitches would be proper
ly adjusted" states Guy w Gienger,
Extension Agricultural Engineer at
the University of Maryland
He describes the problem of proper
hitchng arrangements for tractor
plows as the least understood adjust
ment in blowing. Poor adjustment
may increase fuel consumption as
much as % percent and greatly in
crease wear on both the tractor and
pillow.
an the old days" he explains,
"the horses frequently developed sore
shoulders when the hitch was out of
adjustment This emphasizes the
problem and steps We're usually taken
to improve the hitching arrangement.
The modern tractor doesn't develop
sore shoulders and the waste of fuel
frequently goes unnoticed."
The correct hitch is straight line
from the center of resistance on the
pillow to the point of pull on the trac-
tor, he explains. The center of re-
sistance of a single pillow is about
one-quarter the furrow width to the
right of the Landslide of right hand

which Mr.. Truman claims credit and
to which he intends to point on his
political trip starting next
week is i'm fact thoroughly false
prosperity. To take this sort Of "pros-
perity' seriously is to expose our
selves to shock from which it will
be hard to recover.
For the truth is, the prosperity"
about which the President boasts
comes from the fact that the Govern
mcnt is annually spending $4,000
100000 more than it takes i'm in taxes.
This is Il tremendous sum. With it,
huge subsidies for the farmers, main
tenance for the INDECENT, idle and
thriftless, provision for countless UNI
necessary iobholders and for numcr-
Gus Unnecessary purposes are sup
piled. All of this money is put into
circulation Along with the vast sums
spent on foreign aid and in prose
cuton Of the cold war, it holsters
salaries and incomes of individuals
and, satisfying our immediate APP
petite, gives us false sense of
security.
The fact is that every day the
national debt gets larger and the ma
tional finances more deplorably I'M
manageable. This isn't real pros
perity. 1t is about as perilous state
of affairs as well can be imagined.
Actually, we are living Off that fat
Of America and it is pretty close to
criminal, under these circumstances,
to tell us that all is well with the
country and that no one need worry
about our strength and soundness be-
cause wages are up and money is
plentiful In the war period from 1910
to 1915, we had prosperity" which
came Just in time to rescue us from
a disastrous slump as the New Deal
spending policies had begun to peter
out. Everybody had a job. Factories
were working overtime. Ships were
being built by the hundreds. Wages
were shooting up. Individually, we
were all prosperous then but it was a
war prosperity founded ON huge war
expenditures and a debt which now
exceeds $250,OOO,0 100000.
The prosperity which we now
have is partly due to the tremendous
demand for goods following de
structive war, and partly to the con-
tinued pouring out Of Government
money from the Treasury spigots. 1t
is prosperity" fraught with grave
danger, and it is the worst sort of
demagoguery to capitalize it for
political purposes, deluding the
people into believing that everything
is lovely and the goose hangs high.
