four and a-half billion dollars.
In his discussion of the tax pro-

government should:

adding to the national debt:

Eliminate war profteering. In
this connection, the Senator said.
1t is inconceivable to me that
any American would use this
emergency as a basis for amass-
ing excessive profits either out of
government contracts or through
strictly private enterprises.
Mr.. Frear predicted delay in
Senate passage. of the bill if at

that this matter can be expected

days of illness. This paralysis shows marked tendency to- ward improvement after the dis ease has reached it's height.
 There is a type of polio, in which symptoms are vague and without any accompanying par alysis, which occurs frequently during polio edidemics, it was stated.
 The disease is contracted through body discharges of in- fected persons. Close association with these infected persons, even though they may not be suffer- ing from a clinically-recognized attack of the disease, is the source of infection, Dr. Ham explained.
 The physician made no special recommendations, other than those for maintaining good nu- triton and getting sufficient rest, for Valdez residents.
 Territorial department of health officials have stated that closing schools and theatres and other wise established quarantines is ineffective and unjustifiable. They feel it is better that children re- main in school, where first symp- toms may be easily recognized, and treatment can be immediate.

Division Democrats Sweep All Offices In Tuesday Vote

There can be no more Solidly Democratic stronghold in Alaska than there was in Valdez at last Tuesdays general election. No Republican name stained the pre- cinct~ record that listed Valdez top choices when votes were tall ,~ lied last Tuesday evening.
 There were 139 ballots cast in Valdez.
 Voters recorded their choices for Democratic candidates in the following manner:
 Delegate to Congress -E. L. Bartlett, IA.
 Treasurer-Henry Roden, 105.
 Commissioner of Labor-Ross Kimball, 79.
 Territorial Senator-Victor Riv- CTS, 81; z. J. Loussac, 65.
 Territorial House of Representa- tives-William A. Egan, 128; Jack Scavenius, 97; Stanley McCutch- con, 81; Chester C. Carlson, 80; Jack D. Conright, 72; Wendell P. Kay, 68; C. A. Pollard, 65.
 Tuesdays election did show an unusual pattern in party trends. Anchorage and the Matanuska Valley switched from strong Democratic support to back Re- publican candidates. Other out lying areas in the Third Division apparently voted as solidly Dem ocratic as the more populated areas did Republican.
 At press-time, with many of the outlying areas still to be heard from, the seats in the house still were wide open. Although no one had conceded the election yet. ii also was apparent that the Third Division will send two Republi- can senators to the next session of the territorial legislature.

P0LI0'S NOT IN VALDEZ YET, DR. HAM SAYS, BUT HE NAMES PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES

Don't listen to rumors," warns pr. Kenneth Ham of Valdez Com- munity Hospital. Although it was whispered here last week that several cases of polio had been reported in Valdez, there is absolutely no truth in the rumor." |"
 Dr. Ham stated further, how even that local residents are aware of the incidence of polio in other Alaskan communities, and constant vigilance should be maintained here to guard against a local outbreak of the disease.
 The physician advised all local residents to avoid excessive fa- tigue and to maintain standards of good nutrition in order to keep in the peak of health.
 Early symptoms of polio were described by Dr. Ham. It is an acute illness, he said with vary ing symptoms but usually with headache and a characteristic stiffness of the neck and spine. Any suggestion of this latter symptom justifies an examination of spinal fluid, according to the physician.
 Continuing with listing of symptoms, he added that about half the cases develop a lower neuron paralysis in the first few

Four Ships Dock Here During Past Week

Four boats, among them the S.S. Alaska making her last voyage into Valdez this winter, docked here last week.
 Other ships tieing up here dur ing the week were the North Beacon, an Alaska Freight Lines barge, and the mailboat Siren" !" explained by Pete Nickoloff.

VALDEZ ATHLETES TURN TO vOLLEYBALL

Volleyball - and co educa- tional volleyball, at that - comes front and center on the stage at Valdez Gymnasium on Oct. 19.
 On that date, the first game of the 1850 season in Valdez gets under way at eight o'clock. A team of Reds, anonymities as far as the Valdez News can determine will compete with their White opponents, who also are anonymous, for the first victory of the new year.
 All Valdez residents are in- vited to enjoy the game on Oct. 19, and the subsequent games to follow. (The Valdez News hopes to do a better job of re- porting who's playing who, be- fore the next game-time rolls around.)

We Want Men" Is Cry of Choral Group

Men, preferably with voices but not necessarily so, are the primary need of the newly or ganized choral society here. In fact, the need is so pronounced that almost any man will do, a spokesman said, even if he can't do any more than "carry a tune in a basket"
 The choral group met for the first time at the home of Mrs. Raymond Huddleston on Oct. 5. Those assembled practiced first on the lovely and familiar Christmas hymns, and then began work on a Christmas contata.
 All who enjoy singing are urged to attend future choral meetings. Hereafter these meetings will be held at the home of Miss Helen Long. The group expects to meet at 7:30 pm. on Thursdays.
