they expect the giant "blues" to

priced at the moment due to the
stormy weather we've had the past

heavy rains drive the crabs away

ROSE POT.
From Mrs. C.. B. B., Alexandria,
In the first place a rose pot is
not made from faded" rose petals
that have been dried. It is made
from slightly opened buds which
have been picked in the early
morning before the sun has got
to them, for the sun fades them.
There are explicit detailed direc-
tions for making either a rose

INFORMATION FOR THE PUBLIC
EVERY NOW and again reports come that the local Po-
nee IS working on a case, or that some officer of the law has
bsen attacked, with the attacker on the loose. In each and
every case these reports come after the damage has been
done, and more frequently than not, results are most unsatis-
factory.
THE LOCAL POLICE Department should cooperate
more fully with the press in releasing reports Of incidents in
which the public is interested. Not long ago a group of boys
committed a theft and promptly proceeded to spend the
money in lavish manner. Many noted the event but thought
no more OF it. On the other hand if the Police had released
word OF the incident then its task in promptly experimenting
the young offenders would have been greatly reduced, and
the job done much more quickly.
BUT POLICE is not the only department extreme
y loathe to issue news. Just what is the real underlying cause
we do not know. Perhaps it is because people here shy away
from news; perhaps it is because there is a deep-seated fear
that somebody will be offended. Then too, the hesitancy
might be due to failure to keep abreast of the ,standar d de-
mocratic method whereby the public is entitled to be an
Prised Of the normal news coming out of departments Of gov
eminent These officials fail to realize that they owe a duty
to the public; that every citizen has a right to know what is
happening with the government which he is called upon to
support and which is ~truthfully his.
HERE 1S "A Limit beyond which officials should not be
asked to go in releasing news of their departments. There is
always confidential information which can possibly serve no
good purpose by being aired publicly. AS to these matters no
paper in these Islands could expect information for public
release. That is not the object. There are always matters in
each and every department which can, and should be given
the public, and these are the matters Of which we speak.
THEN THERE is another reason why each department
should see to it that information reaches the public. Invari-
ably, by one method or another the word gets around, and all
too frequently inaccurately, SO that people on the streets
know the wrong things in the wrong manner, and much more
harm in done via this dubious method.

Two Women Injured; Moose Is Killed In Freak Automobile Accident Sunday

Two women were injured and moose was killed last Sunday afternoon in an accident that oc- cured at Mile 39 on the Palmer Highway.
 Mrs. Lloyd F. Judge suffered a fractured left knee cap and damage to her teeth while Mrs. Walter Warner received broken nose and bruises to both ankles. Both women were taken to the Air Force Hospital for treatment.
 The large cow moose was dressed out at the scene by Fish and Wildlife agents Bob Burk- holder and Dave Collins and was given to the Lazy Mountain Chil- dren's home.
 The moose came to its end at 3 pm. Sunday after it jumped onto the road in front of a car driven by H. L. Cacy.
 In an attempt to avoid hitting it, Cacy told the Highway Patrol he swerved into the other lane of traffic. Coming towards him was a car driven by Lloyd F. Judge. The two met head on, sandwich ing the moose between them. The moose, well along with calf, was instantly killed.
 The front ends of both cars were seriously damaged.

Alosko Prepares for BiQqesf Tourist Season

The biggest Alaska tourist sea- son ever, despite heightened de- fense activity. is looked for in 1851 by Territorial officials. As Alaska's Governor Ernest Gruen- ing puts it: Alaska is now pre- pared to receive visitors from east or west, and in either case is pre- pared to give the appropriate warm welcome in our own way"
 The Governors statement was made at a banquet of the Alaska Visitors Association at which the newly organized tourist promo ton group outlined plans for a banner travel year.
 At the session, which was held at Juneau with all members of the Territorial Legislature in at- tendance, Larry Moore, vice pres ident of the Association, ikened Alaska to "a Betty Grable in overalls." He explained how the new organization plans to tell the world about the Territory's tour ist attractions. R. E. Ellis, presi- dent of the association, declared Alaska's transportation, hotel and resort operators prepared for the biggest flood of visitors in the Territory's history.
