REVIVE FLOGGING

Senator Charles Tobey, New Hampshire Republican,
suggests reviving the whipping post
1t is hard to believe that in these modern times the
Senator really serious 1t strange that of
legislators should be willing to return to such tlandsh
acts the whipping psf.
This suggestion will be made punishment for Of
ficials who betray their trust
There is little question about the corruption going
in government dsgraceul and those found gull
ty should be given the extreme penalty of the law with
fear of favor but to talk about whipping people
the New Hampshire Senator suggests childish and
backward looking and step the United States could not
afford to take.
Senator Toby will you introduce this bill in your

THE REIGN OF TERROR
MOVES ON

Recent terrorlStlcS activities IN
and around the state of Florida,
have led many people to regret
F'lllv conclude that "The Reign of
Terror Moves On" in this Gland
of the free and home of the
brave"
Not satisfied with sneak bomb
ings and other low down cow
ardly activities designed to in
timidate Negroes and other mi
nority groups, the terrorists have
actually gone in for cold blooded
murder, with little or no regard
for human life.
The coWardly bombing of the
home of Harry T. Moore, State
NAACP leader, and the killing
of Moore and injuring of his wife,
Mrs. Harriet Moore, Christmas
night at Minis, Fla, represents a
back mark on the entire state
of Florida. The incident also
o.ackens the status of law and
order in the entire United States.
Such terroristic activities on the
par, of those who would take the
law into their own hands. only
serve to retard the progress that
has been made not only in this
state, but throughout the nation.
The act was obviously pre-
meditated, Willful, deliberate and
with malice afore-thought. The
entire law enforcing agencies of
the county, state and nation
should be modified on a never
relenting search for the culprits
in this case. The maximum pen
atty under the law should be
metered out to the offenders if
they are found to be guilty. The
memory of this crime should rot
be allowed to pass out of the
minds of the law abiding people
of this state and nation. Unless
some concrete move is taken in
this and other similar acts of
terrorism, to the end that justice
will prevail, the fate of the law
abiding people of this country
will always remain a big ques-
ton in the minds of the rest of
the nations of the world. Let's
catch these culprits and bring
them to trial.

RENAL PENINSULA PUBLIC WELFARE DISTRICT ESTABLISHED HERE

Information has been received from the Alaska Department of Public Welfare that Seward and the Kenai Peninsula will be constituted welfare district, with headquarters in Seward.
 Mrs. Margaret Hafemeister has been appointed as District Director. Seward City Council agreed some time ago to provide an office in the city if funds were appropriated to set up the Kenai Peninsula District. It is not known yet how much of a staff is to be provided for, but the council expressed belief that the Health Center will be large enough to include the welfare office, at least temporarily.

Appoint New Head Of Civil Defense

Colonel Clarence E. Johnson. US. Army, retired, was appoint ed chief of civil defense for Sew ard area by the City Council in special session last night. He will fill the vacancy left by Pat rick Began and the Fourth of July Committee upon the re- quest of that group to be re- lieVed of responsibility so as to devote full time to the promo tion Of the community celebra- tion and Mt Marathon race.
 MT. Johnson, native of Vir- ginia, has spent many years in Alaska. During the war he served with troops in Seward, where he now makes his home.
 The question of appointment was tabled by the council last month until a man could be found who would meet with pop ular approval. General con- census of opinion seems to be that MT. Johnson, with his ex- perience in organization and command is the man for the job.

Local Girls Article App ears Ia h9 h9aeazine

Lura Peck. 12-year-old daugh- ter of Mrs. Victor Mahan, wrote an article which was published in the children's magazine Play mate" She described a fishing trip down the Bay and around Rugged Island last year.
 In response to her story, which was published in a recent issue, Lura has received more than 150 letters from children all over the United States.
 School children ask questions about life in Alaska, among which are such queries as, DO you go to school in an igloo?" Do you live in an ice house?" Do you have 3 dog team?" Does your father hunt seals with dogs?'
 Many letters are from Scout groups, and from school children and classes, all of which point up the amazing ignorance of continental schools concerning Alaska.

General Blood Tvpine To Be gia nay 3

Blood typing of every person in Seward will begin next Tues day, May 8, with the school chil- dren, and will be done at the school
 A charge of twenty-five cents will be made for the typing, which will provide each person with a record to be carried at all times, and a record to be kept in the city for emergency use @....:
 Adults who are willing to make up a blood bank for dona- tions at the Sanatorium and hos pital will be typed without charge. This will require addi- tional testing which will be done under the supervision of Dr. Phillips, medical director at the SanatOrium.
 Blood typing is urged as part of National Civil Defense, for the protection of all civilians in case of war emergency. Many times, in case of accidental in- jury in peace time, in surgery, and some disease, the immediate use of blood will save life or reduce illness. By having ones blood type immediately avail able, much time is gained in treatment. It is hoped that every one will respond to the blood typing program as readily as they have to the typhoid i'm munization and BCG vaccina- ton.

Living Differen+iaI Committed in ksGw PiI!

Language contained in the h. tcrior Department appropria- tions bill for the 1852 fiscal year would deprive Alaska resi- dents employed locally by the Interior Department of the g per cent cost-of-living allow ance.
 The language, termed by Del egate Bartlett as being unWar- ranted discrimination, would discontinue the 25 per cent diff ferential to all Interior Depart, ment Gncluding ARR) employ, ees outside the continental lin, it's of the US. other than those who were resident citizens of the continental US. at the time of their employment.
 The bill, reported to the House on April Is, contains funds for all Interior Department agen- cies for the fiscal year starting July 1 Debate on the measure and amendments to the bill oc- cupied the major time of the House last week and will con- tinue through this week when the restrictive language affecting the 25 per cent differential will be considered.
 Ii will be recalled that in the mid-forties when a 25 per cent differential was paid admins trat veiv attempts were made by the Department of the Army to do away with the payment. The attempt was successfully defeated, and in 1948 Congress enacted a law which resulted in the present 25 per cent cost-Of- living allowance now paid to all Federal employees in Alaska and other places outside the conti- mental United States.
 The cost-of-living survey just completed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics proves that the cost of living in Alaska far ex- ceeds 25 per cent over the Dis trict of Columbia. The study based on survey made in Feb ruary, and confined to Anchor age and Fairbanks showed that price differences on food and clothing in those areas is from 37 to 47 per cent higher than the same commodities in Seattle, which in turn is higher than in the Capitol.
 The announcement made by Secretary of Labor Tobin stated rents were found to be more than twice as high in Alaskan cities. Rents, based upon two and three room houses and apartments with private baths in the three cities, were found to be 113 per cent higher in An chorage and IF per cent higher in Fairbanks.
 The 25 per cent limit was placed by Congress, and even that appears to be in danger from the prohibitive language in the Interior Department bill.
