Rosien Appointed Exec.-Sec'+y
 League of Cities

Upon the resignation of Rob- ert E. Sharp as executive sec retary of the League of Alaska Cities, the league president, z. J. Loussac, with the consent of the executive board, appoint ed MT. Arthur H. Rosien to the post on a part time basis.
 MT. Rosien was appointed upon the basis of his educational background and past experience at Syracuse University, and with approval of those members of the executive committee whose cities have become members of the League.
 Mir. Sharp, who was appointed as temporary secretary by the committee at the organizational meeting last August, resigned, because, as he says, T find that my principal duty as City Man. ager, City of Anchorage, and several other collateral positions 1 now hold, makes it impossible for me to devote sufficient time to League duties. l also feel that the duties of League Executive Secretary are such that there is a need for a full time secre- tary as soon as funds are avail able"
 The appointment of MT. Ro- sien was effective January Z, so as to allow sufficient time for the legislative work required to fulfill the directives to the Board of Directors by the Au- gust Conference to be completed for submission to the Territorial Legislature this year.
 Seward has not yet joined with other Alaskan cities in the League. It will be brought before the Council again at the next session by Councilwoman Kirk patrick, member of the Execu- tive Committee of the League. Se]dovia and Kodiak are the 1 latest communities to ratify the constitution and enter into the League. Mrs. Kirkpatrick ex- pressed the hope that Seward will participate in the League activities with the next meeting

usage "alumnus" means "a male

The plural of alumnus Is

We may wonder where Stone Age

facts which have been gathered, II
appears that colored soil, mixec
with oil from animal fat, supplied
much of the paint. Some of tht

BOON TO KEY WEST

Representative Lantaff's talk with
Captain Adell about the proposed extern
sion of the Inland Waterway from Bahia
Honda to Key West, revives project
that should have been completed many
years ago, Key Westers have never been
able to understand why the waterway,
when it was dredged from Miami south,
stopped at Rahia Honda, an uninhabited
key r
The waterway is like an alley, ending
in cul-de-sac. Dozens of times the Key
West Chamber of Commerce and other
local civic bodies have tried to have the
waterway extended to this city. In 1912,
it appeared certain that the extension
would be made when President Roosevelt
approved an appropriation of ST 1926, 900
for the project. But that was as far as the
movement for it's completion got, for the
money to do the work was not appropriate
ed by congress.
While The Citizen does not know
what will be the Navy's reaction to Rep
sesentative Lantaff's view that the water
way would be decided factor in bring
ing freight by barge to Key West in wea-
Their too stormy for outside travel, yet
that conviction is a plausible one. Sea-
farers in Key West, or anybody else who
has travelled through the keys, have felt
many a time the need of an inside route
to Key West. AS they didn't have that
route, protected from wind and sea by
keys on both sides, they were obliged to
seek shelter till the outside rough seas
subsidized.
Representative Lantaff told The CT
tizen that 1.-THE Bureau of the Budget in
Washington will not approve of any pro-
iect now unless it is geared to the defense
effort" As that is the case, the only hope
at this time to have the waterway extend
ed to Key West is to have the project APP
proved by the Navy.
.ai Nobody knows what may happen in
bringing supplies to the Navy in Key
West, To assume this or assume that is,
purely a guess. But we do know that if
the highway is damaged by storm to the
extent that traffic would be held up for
several days, an inland waterway route,
with barge service. would be a boon to
Key West if highway traffic were inter.

DEPORTATION A POWERFUL
WEAPON

The United States Government has a
weapon to use against aliens who come
into this country, fail to take out citizen
ship papers and then enter upon life of
crime.
The weapon is deportation. 1t will be
used against the alleged fixer of college
basketball games in the New York City
area who, it is said, went to Cuba three
years ago and subsequently came back
without visa, representing that he had
U. S. citizenship.
The United States has been extremely
liberal in permitting aliens to come to this
country and become citizens. After rel7
atively short period of time, they acquire
all the rights of U. S. citizenship and
some means should be available to deport
them if they are subsequently identified
with criminal gangs or mobs In other
words, if an alien comes into this country
for life of crime the nation ought to
have some way of deporting him, whether
he is citizen or not.

The United States needs at least g.

Freeman, of Hopkins University
School of Nursing. She points out that the
Array Nurse Corps is having difficulty in
reeruiring a 5000 quota.
According to the lady, one of every
ten girls graduating from high school
must be recruited for nursing service if
the nations needs are to be met. These
cannot be filled by using the 2O5,OOO
nurses now inactive because eighty-seven
per cent are married, fifty-seven per cent
have dependents under eighteen and 1915
per cent are over fifty years of age.

Millions and millions of dollars

charter boat for two days. Four
of us stayed in Stuart three days.
We paid $50 day for our charter
boat, had two double rooms for
three nights at local hotel, used
taxis six times, went to two pic
ture shows, patronized three diff
ferent eating establishments and
two cocktail lounges, bought
caps and sun glasses, cigars,
cigarettes, newspapers and sun
dries at ideal drugstore. Two
members of our party liked the
looks of Easter outfits displayed
in local dress shop and pur-
chased two. Later in a local
tackle store they bought a guam
tity of tackle. In mems shop
Ramsey bought pair of shoes.
AS far as Stuart was concerned
we were tourists. We came with
