would not have dared to do so even had they been permitted. In contrast. a thin faced, frail Italian wearing spectacles walked timidly up to the rostrum and made plea.
 T raise my voice for new re- public which is striving toward the lasting and constructive peace which you are seeking" he said. "A nation of toilers is ready and determined to work with you in the foundation of a more just and humane world"
 There was no applause when the --thin-iaasd--1ta Italian ished---sseA in~ dication that he had won support for the cooperation he was seeking. Nor was there any thought that this man could long remain at the helm of the turbulent, wavering coalition of parties which then gov- erned Italy.
 Today, however, that man, Pre- mier De Gasperi of Italy, still frail, still thin-faced, still wear ing horn-rimmed spectacles, is in the United States, not as a sup pliant representing a conquered na- ton, but a friend and partner in defense cooperation for western Europe.
 And having just come from Ot- tawa and a discussion of mutual NATO defense, De Gasperi knows better than most how drastically the diplomats have reversed them- selves since that frigid day in the Palace of Luxembourg in 1946.
 Homespun Premier
 It is quite possible that Italy would not be playing this role of full partnership had it not been for the man who arrives in Wash ington today. He is not a prepos- sessing figure. In fact, you can't imagine anyone more the opposite of Mussolini than Alcide De Cas- peri-drab, demure, modest, home spun.
 But the exact opposite of Musso- lini-in more ways than one-is what Italy has needed in these harassed postwar years. And De Gasperi's life has been the reverse of Mussolini's almost from the day it began.
 It began. incidentally, not in Italy but in Austria. De Gasperi was born-70 years ago-on the wrong side of the tracks. The son of a minor Austrian government official in the Tyrolean Alps, where Austria and Italy meet and where slices of territory have changed hands over the years
 De Gasperi studied at the Uni versity of Vienna, got into the labor government movement, was elected to the Austrian Parliament as an Italian separationist, battled against both the Austrian aristo- cracy and Italian Communists, and finally. after World War I had shifted his part of the Alps from Austria over to Italy, was elected to the Italian Parliament.
 Christianity And Politics
 It was in this period when the first seeds of Italian Fascism were sprouting that De Gasperi helped found the popular party. later the Christian Democratic Party, based on the principle of applying Christianity to social and political welfare.
 The foundation of that party came too late. Also the train on which De Gasperi first rode to Rome to take his seat in Parlia- ment arrived too late Ahead of him arrived Benito Mussolini and his Fascist Black Shirts. De Gasperi's @~aix, had hoep shuptpd aside ta

Federal Nl'layiga1tHiionl ! Ia Laws; Motorboat Regulations

If you own and opgate boat, for business or pleasure, it would benefit you to acquaint yourself and comply with the Federal Nav igation Laws and Motorboat Res ulations. Thees laws and regula- tions are enforced by the U. s. Coast Guard and violations ther- of, when detected and reported, generally carry monetary penal ties. Many of these laws and reg ulations have been enacted to pro- mote safety to life and property; therefore, full compliance with them is to the interests of your self, your passengers, cargo, and pocketbook.
 The Commander, 17th Coast Guard District at Juneau advises that the most frequent violations involve failure to have boat num- bered and to have number certifi- cate and required equipment on board; failure to have numbers painted on bows, failure to report the abandonment and change of ownership of boats, and failure to report casualties to the District Office. In Alaska, some boats are carrying passengers or freight for hire in violation of law without having been inspected by the Coast Guard and in possession of a valid Certificate of Inspection.
 If you are uncertain as to the re quirements of law and regulations as they apply to your boat, any Coast Guard officer will assist you in their interpretation. More

SCHOOL NEWS
HIGH SCHOOL

We have heard directly from Korea in letter from Jack Dowd who is now sergeant in the army. We feel very proud of Jack in that he represents Nome High School in far off Korea. He has been in Korea approximately five months. Since the Nationahsts evacuated Seoul, the Koreans have been pouring down into Pu- san. They do not have place to live and find it difficult to make enough money for their next meal. The children run around looking into the garbage cans for a crust of bread.
 Jack has been in several parts of Korea. He first landed at Po- hangdong from his previous serv- ice in Japan. From there he moved to Hamhung which is just below the 4Oth parallel and on the east coast. He was evacuated from Hamhung when the Chinese moved in. He is now at Pusan on the southern tip of Korea.
 Report cards came out Wednes- day and the following students made the honor roll: George Bell, John Bell, Katherine Bjornstad, Clara Brown, Kay Coulthard, Lo- gan Dowd, Juanita Fagerstrom, Dorothea Hudert, John Hudert, Betty Jean Hurlbert, Clara Jor- eensen, and Lawrence Okpealuk.
 A few changes in the program have bee nmade for the second semester. Economics follows the work in civics, trigonometry re- places solid geometry, blueprint reading in place of mechanical drawing and study of sentence structure takes the place of liter ature in the English classes.
 The Girl Scouts are promoting the "March of Dimes'' to combat the disease of infantile paralysis.
 Mercury, which is the smallest planet and closest to the sun IS now at an advantageous position for observation, being at western elongation or the extreme west end of its orbit. IL is a morning star but rather difficult to see just before sunrise.

BY JOHN K1TAsAko

Mr.. Kametaro Kawaguchi, who
captured first prize In the Seattle
Times Silver Salmon Derby, is a
gracious and modest winner-and a
popular one, judging from the fine
things the Times said about his gen.
erosity in passing along advice on
fishing.
What impressed us the most
about Mr.. Kawaguchi's victory was
what he-said in an interview with a
Times reporter.
Among other things, he told the
reporter that the biggest thrill he
got out of the derby was being able
to fish ION an equal footing with all
the others, and of knowing he had
"as good chance to win as any, re-
CARELESS Of my race.
Kawaguchi said his winning
meant lot. mot only to me, but to
ali OF my race. It makes for better
understanding, and better citizens
Those we're indeed appropriate re-
marks to make. People who read
the story about Kawaguchi would
find 1t difficult not TO agree that
this Japanese fisherman was wor-
thy winner. and they would find 1t
hard to be envious toward him for
having won such a valuable prize.
We think he is something of q
public relationist in his own right
And mighty good one. Certainly
he knew what to say. and he said II
very well.
Maybe, he was prepared to say
what he did just In case4he won Then
that makes him an optimist as well
as man of preparedness and fore
sight.
Ordinarily a Japanese winning
first place in big fishing derby
could be expected to be so hoped
up with joy and pride he would not
be able to think of anything else to
say except how glad he was to win.
But Mr.. Kawaguchi had marve-
lous presence of mind when being
interviewed by the reporter, and be-
cause he did, what he said was given
a good play in the paper.
Mr.. Kawaguchi's citation over his
victory, no doubt, was heightened by
the fact that before the war Japan
ese were barred from participation
in fishing derbies.
The Northwest times. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1947-1955, 1951-11-07

But here. in 1851, he was awarded
the top prize of brand new Dodge.
Could victory be any sweeter?
It seemed so incongruous and I'M
just that Japanese we're not allow
ed to enter fishing contests IN pre-
war days. No other aliens or race
of people we're declared ineligible.
Fishing is supposed to be a sport,
and discrimination of any sort Is
entirely out of place IN sporting
events.
Fishermen regard themselves &c
sportsmen. But sometimes you find
the biggest phonies among them.
Those so-called sportsmen who
were responsible for barring Japa-
nese were most likely possessed with
a fear that Japanese from the old
country. who were wise to the ways
of fishing. would cop prizes handily
If allowed to compete with whites.
The war brought on many chang
es, and caused a lot of ideas to be
re-examined and readjusted. The
decision to permit Japanese in fish
ing contests Is but one of them.
The period Immediately following
the end of the war was the time to
institute changes. 1t may be that
sane minds in the Times and fishing
circles generally were gradually
coming around to the idea that dis
elimination against Japanese was a
shameful blot on the sport, and
they figured it was as good time
as any to make the change without
raising lot of protests.
Forgetting the sordid past of fish
ing derbies, we'd like to congratulate
Mr. Kawaguchi for winning a car.
and for capitalizing on once-in-a-
lifetime opportunity and doing a
bang-up job of public relations.

q MANY.
families. which before the war
were in an embarrassing shape Is
far as food and shelter and clothing
were concerned. are now rolling
smoothly in the dough. They have
found World War II and the war
time evacuation "a blessing in dis
guise". And they have met and en-
tertained new friends freely as If
they were always living in rich. ex-
pensive style.
Some of them have forgotten
their old friends-the ones who rea-
lily helped them when they were in
dire need of funds and moral sup
port before the war. Old friends.
like old shoes. have been rudely
tossed aside in favor of new friends.
It is sickening to cite such cases.
But they are not uncommon in our
