To hundreds of people in Alaska the most important thing about William E. Craumer is his sigma ture. So instead of running pho tograph of Mir. Craumer, as has been the practice in this Know Your University series, we are printing his signature.
 MT. Craumer is comptroller of the University of Alaska, and his signature appears on every check issued by the University, the Geophysical Institute, the Food Service, the Bookstore and the Experiment Station.
 Bill Craumer comes from Lewis burg, Pennsylvania, in the cen tral part of the state. Lewis burg's claim to fame is not that it lies on the edge of the great Ap- plachian coal belt, but that it is the hometown of Bucknell Uni versity. Bucknell University has lot of meaning for the UniVer- sity of Alaska, as it is the Alma Mater of President Emeritus Dr. | Charles E.. Bunnell.
 Craumer was a junior at Buck nell when World War II came along. One day, as it happened to million Americans, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt sent him postcard that said Greet ings." Before Bill got used to the khaki-colored suit he was wear ing he was in basic training at Camp Maxey in Paris, Texas. William was in the Army three and one-half years, and spent two of them in Merrie Ole England.
 Being an accountant major, Bill was a valuable G.I. He was shunted all over England, from camp to camp, to straighten out books, accounts and bring order out of snafu. Bill didn't mind this bit as he got to see just about all of England, either in line of duty or on three-day passes. He got himself we'll acquainted with Scotland, too,
 After VIE day the Joint Chiefs of Staff decided Bill (and his Field Artillery were needed on the other side of the world. So Bill crossed the Atlantic west bound, greeted Lady Liberty in New, York Harbor with wide smile, and went home to Lewis burg on a 30-day pass.
 The day the Japanese threw in the sponge, Bill was in the front room of his home listening to the radio. When the flash came "Ja- pan surrenders, he calmly went upstairs, opened his closet, took out his unused civvies, put them

on and went downtown. He stood on the sidewalk and watched the Victory Parade go, by. That was the first parade he had enjoyed in long time.
 Craumer went back to Bucknell and in June of l947 was awarded his Bachelor of Science degree majoring in accounting. His first job was with a medium sized (500-employees) accounting firm in New York City. Bill soon showed his mettle and was put on the road supervising audits. While going over the books of an in surance company in Philadelphia, a most attractive registered nurse, Yvonne Horning, of Chester, Pennsylvania, crossed his path. They met, liked each other and dated. And more about Yvonne later.
 One day Craumer was called to the long distance telephone. A wire had been received by Buck nell from Dr. Charles E. Bunnell. "The University of Alaska needs a comptroller"
 Would you like to go to Alas ka?" Craumer was asked.
 No, I don't think so. Who wants to go to Alaskan"
 Then Frank Davis, secretary of the Bucknell Alumni Association, who had taught school with Charles E. Bunnell in Alaska back in 1901 and 1902, gave Craumer a sales talk on Alaska that had him on the ropes in short order
 Four days after hearing of the job. Craumer was on a plane bound for Fairbanks. He arrived at College in August, 1948, took off his coat and went to work.
 It took Bill only an academic year to prove he was an excellent man for the job and to show him that he liked Alaska. Then he started making plans that includ- ed Yvonne Horning. On Febru- ary ', 1850, at 45 below, with pr. Bunnell giving the bride away, 1 Bill Craumer and YVonne were married at St. Matthews Church in Fairbanks.
 Last week son, weighing 2 lbs, l l3 ozs., arrived at St. Joseph's s Hospital, Fairbanks. 1 Right now, William E. Craumer. comptroller of the University, Is with his young son and setting up an account in the family ledg- er:, entitled William E. Craumer, ] Jr."

AHA Finances
Privufe Builders

A new name in the conStruc-
ton industry has entered the
Alaska building scene. AS a new
source of financing for private
builders the Alaska Housing
Authority. has compiled an en-
viable record during its first
nine months of mortgage opera
tons. I'VE now have outstanding
loan commitments totaling S4.-
100000 for new residential con-
struction, and over 100000 in
commercial loans for purchase
of building materials" announc-
ed E. Glen Wilder, Executive
Director of Alas a Housing
Authority. The Authority has
now become in this short period
the largest mortgage lender. in

of the Act. Many Stateside Con-
tracing firms have entered the
Alaska building scene as hous-
ing sponsors during the last year,
However, in all cases financing
on reasonable terms from pri-
vate lending institutions must be
unavailable before the Authori-
ty can assist in its financing.
Realizing that to interest
builders in residential construc-
ton in Alaska liberalized con-
struction financing would have
to be made available, the Cong
ress passed the Alaska Housing
Act creating a revolving fund of
fifteen million dollars and
amending the National Housing
Act to permit the Federal Hous
ing Administration to insure
loans in Alaska for one-third
more than in the States. The
Congress also approved the AHA
as a mortgage and mortgagor
for all purposes under the Ma
tional Housing Act and provided
for liberalized underwriting of
all loans where the Authority
was the mortgage or mortgagor
The Authority has broad plans
for this new program for 1851 as
inquiries have been made from
as far north as kotzebue, and as
far south as SaXman.

do the impossible and agree that
q three-day 1ay-over In his home
town of Paducah, KY, will give
him all the rest he needs. The
trip will be made by plane.
Off-the- Cuff Speeches.
The speeches will be mostly of
the off-the-cuff variety. of which
the Vice President is q master.
More than anything else it is
hoped that he will stir the party
workers to get out and work and
the voters to come out and vote
on election day. In view of the
heavy registration reported from
most States, it is thought that
no more than that is needed to
assure retention of a Democratic
House and Senate. So the vet
eran campaigner Is expected to
follow his usual line, one calcu-
lated to warm up the faithful and
cause them to do their stuff. The
crowds will hear the best-natured
man in the world, giving way to
righteous anger over the deplora-

behavior of turning the other

Moscow Technique.
Moscow developed q clever tech
nique TO subject this country to
humiliation. It singled out only
American diplomats and members

for indignities unparalleled In dip

Even the Berlin airlift. which
showed what we could do In q
pinch, did not restore the conf
dence of the free world In our
ability to answer Russia in kind
The peoples in Europe and Asia
wondered what q handful OF
American soldiers and airmen
could do against the overwhelm-
ing mass Of Russian ground and
air forces. The reverses we suf-
fered in Korea In July and August
merely confirmed the impression
of the military helplessness Of the
United States.
Then, when the situation looked
as gloomy as during the early days
of Hitler's victories against France
and Britain, a miracle occurred
American and South Korean
forces, backed by a few land. sea
and air units Of other nations
turned the tables and In less thar

Nine Causes for Concern
Loss of Senate Democratic Leaders
Feared In Coming Election Fights :

causes for concern, the Demo-
Gratis put positive conviction that
they will take @. O. r. seats in
Ohio. Idaho, Colorado and Mis-
souri,, with grounds for hope IN
Indiana and Wisconsin. The net
loss would stin be three. not
enough to overturn the Senate
which they now control by IL
votes.
Democrats still insist that no
general trend against them exists
and that they can retrieve most
of these races by hard work.
They are counting on labor more
than ever before; q confidence
which the unusually heavy Ohio
registration seems to justify.
Hide Goes With the Hog.
They are also beginning to say
that with peace in Korea, the
champ ought to take to the road.
Unless some great crisis occurs
meanwhile. the heaviest possible
pressure can be expected upon
President Truman from within
his party. His difficulty viii be
to pick and choose among the
candidates he will help, since he
can't go to many States. Now
resting aboard his yacht, the
President will not even be back in
Washington until Wednesday Of
next week.
The President wants to cam
paign and entertains no doubt
that he would be Of help. But as
his recent bipartisan appoint
ments prove. he can be Influenced
to abandon political considera-
tions and even debts owed to
friends when foreign policy is at
issue.
In discussing the November out
look, politicians take the posi-
tion that the hide goes with the
hog, that the House will general
ly follow the Senate trend. They
are guessing on reverses for the
Democrats, no overturn Of control.
