CONGRESS
COMPILED BY THE CHAMBER
OF COMMERCE OF THE
UNITED STATES

UNITED STATES
by Courtesy of The ST. Croix
Chamber of Commerce
THE SENATE LACKS a separate
committee to deal with a billion
dollar subject-veterans' affairs.
That situation may be corrected.
The veterans organizations
hope so.
Sen. Ferguson (R-Mich.) and 35
colleagues of both parties are
sponsoring S. Res. 148 to establish
a permanent Committee on Vet
erans' Affairs. 1t would be effec-
tive with the next-83rd Con-
gress.
Since the first World War, the
Finance Committee has handled
most veterans legislation in the
Senate. Bills dealing with hospi-
tails and education for veterans US
ually 60 to the Senate Labor and
Public Welfare Committee.
The idea of a separate Senate
committee to handle legislation
for veterans in not new. The vet
erans' organizations have been
urging it for years.
They point hopefully this year
to the facts that, first, So Senators
are behind the idea-with still
others expected to back it-and,
second, that members of both FL
nance and Labor are among the
SO.
THE SPONSORS of S. Res. 148
include Chairman Murray Cd
Mont.) and members Morse (R-
Ore.) and Nixon (R-Calif.) of La
Dor, and Martin (R-Pa.) and But
Ter R-Neb.) of Finance.
The head legislative representa-
tive of one veterans organization
feels S. Res. 148 has a $3.50
chance and says its fate will de-
pend upon elbow hard Senator
George opposes it." George Cd
Ga.) is chairman of Finance. He
is we'll liked and respected and,
this legislative representative
feels, even some of his colleagues
who favor a separate veterans
affairs committee will back down
if George insists.
1t is the habit of committees, in
the Senate and House, to guard
their jurisdiction jealousy.
S. Res. 148 is in the Senate
Rules and Administration Chm
mittee and probably will be"as-
signed to a subcommittee some
time next month for study, accord
ing to the staff. A staff member
says there is no indication at pre-
sent as to when there might be
final committee action on the bill.

KOtzebue News

At meeting sponsored by Miss Alice Connolly, head nurse of the ANS hospital at Kotzebue, 16 women of the Arctic village or ganized the Kotzebue chapter of the Alaska Crippled Children's Association. The charter members include the Misses Eunice Logan, Adeline Chaides, Alice Connolly, Virginia Powell, Gladys Kolter- man, Virginia Larsen, Christine Sorrill, and Mesdames George Wilson, Delos Westbrook, N. G.. Hanson, Thomas Richards, Raven Sheldon, Louis Rotman, Eugene Sours, Robert Baker, and Jack Bullock.
 Committees were appointed for two projects to be carried out in July: the Fourth of July commit tee, headed by Gladys Kolterman, had a booth for the sale of ice cream and cold drinks during the games and beauty contest. Vir- ginia Powell was appointed chair man of the committee for the rummage sale, to be held July 24.
 Prior to this time personnel of the hospital have shouldered the responsibility of providing enter tainment and gifts for the many children brought from all over the northern part of Alaska.
 It was felt such interest and participation should be reflected through local activities and the new chapter is the result.
 Archie Ferguson'S MS Kotzebue was the first boat of the season into Kotzebue Sound. It was fol- lowed the next day by the B & R Tug and Barge MS Tula, which brought in steel for the Standard Oil tanks being constructed in Kotzebue by Morrison-Knudsen.

 WASHINGTON, P) - Tn e Senate Small Business Committee said Monday the Civil Aeronautics Board should act promptly to re- lieve the hardships it is imposing on Alaska through its restrictions of flights from the United States" ;"
 The recommendation was the second by a Senate committee within six months to the CAB to ease it's policies governing avia- ton in the territory.
 Tn February an Armed Services subcommittee urged the CAB to relax it's regulations sufficiently to encourage the development of aviation in Alaska.
 The latest report dealt with the effect of CAB rule on the lines which fly on an irregular or non scheduled basis. They are known as "non-skeds." The CAB regula- ton restricts non-skeds to three round trip flights per month over major traffic segments and eight round trip flights between all other points.
 The committee said it was alarmed" by the testimony of Alaska's Governor Gruening.
 The governor described the CAB as 'tan absentee bureau cracy (which has greatly re- tarded the normal development o1 Alaska" Its policies, he said, had been disastrous . (anO dia- metrically opposed to the policies of President Truman.

The Municipal Council Of

Council Bill No. q on May II,
1851, to permit the service of
Summonses in lieu of arrest

less distinguished service have
been better treated. The small
pension would at least have
helped to keep his daughter in
college.
The legislators should have
voted for the measure, if even
for selfish reasons. Indeed, it is
unusual in St. Croix to find a
man surviving more than one
term in the legislature, but
there is no telling that some
day another member of the
body might suffer the same
fate as Harrigan. In the Virgin
Islands, when the average le-
gislator goes out Of office,
involuntarily or otherwise, he
leaves empty-handed, without
lump sum payments, pension
or anything else, regardless of
length Of service. One would
have expected that Mr.. Harri-
CAMS former colleagues who
are familiar with the sacrifices
that legislative service re-
quires, and the dangers it
often impose upon ones family
would have exercised a great
er degree of sympathy and
generosity. In voting against
the measure they did an in
justice, not only to Mr.. Harri-
gan and his survivors, but to
themselves as well.

When a person whom one
dlsllkes passes away the natu-
raj and immediate human re-
action is sympathy for those
who survive, a considerate
evaluation of the events and
activities that made up the
deceased life, and a tendency
to forgive him for whatever
errors or foibles for which he
might have been blamed. Sell
dom does even the most i'm
placable foe carry his hatred
beyond the grave.
But that seems to be the
case with the foes Of Ludwig E.
Harrigan, one Of the most dis
tinguished members of the St.
Croix legislature, and presi-
dent of the St. Croix Labor
Union, who died in Office
several months ago.
Recently, Councilman Alva
MacFarlane introduced a bill
in the Crucian legislature to
grant a pension of $25 a month
to Mr.. Harrigan's widow. The
proposal was voted down by
an overwhelming margin. If
there was anything wrong
with the measure, it was that
the pension it proposed was
shamefully small and made
quate. For great service
rendered to the people by Mr..
Harrigan, the municipality
could afford to be a little gen
erous to those he left behind.
Harrigan died while in the
performance Of his duties. It
may be said truthfully that
his devoted attention to the
peoples business which caused
him to drive himself at a furi-
Gus pace, and to develop
irregular eating habits which
largely contributed to his all
ment, was the direct cause Of
his death. Certainly, persons
much less deserving or with

ing, and sustained the game for
many years. But what has he
received?
AS AL Monroe was wont to
say, II may be wrong, but ="
I cannot recall anybody ever
giving Joe Louis an automobile
and lot of valuable presents.
Has anybody ever paid off the
mortgage on his home? Has
anybody ever thought Of estab-
fishing trust fund for his chill
dren? Has anybody ever given
a real DAY for Joe Louise"
The champion must think
about these things as he reflects
over the last Is years and
thinks of what has been said
about him, and Of what he has
tried TO do This must cut deep
as he has seen and even support
ed programs to honor others who
have flashed into the limelight
for contributing far less than he
has to public morale and inter
racial goodwill.
1t is doubtful if Joe would
want it now, because at this
point such would smack of
benefit, and the champion has
proved that he is not looking for
charity. But when they paid off
Larry Doby's mortgage, no one
considered it charity. Just the
same, it may not be too late for
us to stop talking about how
great Joe was, how he ought to
quit fighting, and a lot Of other
trash, and join hands to do some
thing really nice for the big
fellow.
In the meantime, this writer
will string along with the champ
in whatever he wants to do.
Naturally, none of US want to
see him get hurt or humiliated,
but he probably has been hurt
and humiliated more by the
treatment he has received, es-
pecially from many he has help
ed, than he could ever be by a
Msrciano or anyone else in the
ring.

baseball fans believe that Carver

Lou ROudreau. manager Of the

Boudreau believes that Carver can

NEW YORK, Joe Louis is a
great guyl There are millions
who would agree with this OPEN
ing statement, but there are
probably not too many who have
really considered how true the
statement is. This writer was
present with his friends, Dan
Burley and Henry Brown, the
eminent cartoonist, at Bacon 5
Casino in Chicago when Joe
Louis had his first fight. He has
followed his career ever since
in and out of the ring.
Hundreds of writers have told
in deathless prose how much
Joe Louis has meant TO boxing,
to his race, to his country and to
the human race, but few have
bothered to write much about
what Louis has meant to him
self in terms of security, which
is important along with prestige
and community service.
Well, what about Joe Louis?
He has been all the writers and
preachers have said he was, but
what has it meant to him in tam
gible things? How has the pub
lie showed its appreciation?
During his career as a fighter,
Louis has helped practically all
who asked of him. He is in
trouble now with the Govern
ment over his taxes and there
are many who believe he return
ed to the ring after announcing
he would quit after the second
Walcott fight which he won, in
order to square things with
Uncle Sam.
Louis has appeared at benefits
70 help all kinds of causes; he
CAV close to 100000 to Army
and Navy Relief; he toured
camps during the last war at
home and abroad to entertain
troops. He has made many rich
and he helped numerous friends
establish themselves in business.

Though there's much trade
