Most assuredly we are in a

Communication

Editor, Daily Alaska Empire.
 Dear Sir:
 In your paper of October 31 under the heading: New Federal Tax or Liquor, Nov. 1st, quote:
 "An example; beer will be taxed an additional $1.00 barrel, broken down, this amounts to one third of a cent a pint. Since this is less than a cent, no increase is allowed but when three or more pints are sold at once, an additional cent may be charged to cover the new tax, OPS. explained"
 It isn't clear however whether one cent per pint or for three pints may be charged by the dealer. I gather that liquor dealers have at tended meetings with OPS. off cials and I grant that the average dealer is an intelligent person who would fully understand what the new tax means. Whether intelli- gence is below par, or dealers are after some extra cash, can't say, but my recent experience proved that something is wrong some place.
 Purchase of two pints of Bud- weiser beer at the liquor store nor mally would amount to fifty cents plus cept city tax; it cost me fifty-five cents plus l cent city tax. In other words, 21a cents have been jacked up by dealers and new regu- latipn is that no raise is called for.
 Drinking at bars is altogether getting prohibitive. An II ounce can of beer, better known as a rooster, normally sold at twenty five cents is now thirty cents. It's a boost of five cents on short beer. Some places, pints of beer went up as high as ten cents per pint. I haven't tasted hard liquor, but one can well imagine what the price would be. Cigarettes went up five cents a pack at the bars and if I'm not mistaken, the tax boost was one dollar per thousand
 Now I wonder what that meeting between those two faction S amounted to. Are liquor dealers getting the best of the OPS. or is it that OPS. is too slack, or am I interpreting it all wrong?
 Most of us like a drink of this or that and I don't begrudge law full profit, but in this case, the way see it, someone is off the beam un- less the new tax is explained more clearly, and enforced, the general public will be fleeced as usual.

Bio Turnover of 0ffi(erS Underway In Korea, Japan

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6 - tRl - A shift of 13 generals, involving eight key posts in Korea and Japan, is underway.
 It is the largest turnover of top officers at one time since the Kor- can war began. But the command CTS of all divisions and corps in Korea have heen changed at least once.
 A Pentagon spokesman said the re-assignment order was not a shakeup of the far east command He said it was part of regular rotation of top officers which was started early this year. At that time it was explained that the pur- pose was to spread the combat ex- pelience Of Korea as far as possible by assigning senior officers to field Cuty and using veterans to direct training in thc 1nitei States.
 The re-assignment list will mean new commanders for the 9th and lCth Corps in Korea, the 18th Corps in Japan, and the 2ath and 7th Infantry Division in Korea. It also will change the deputy chief of staff for the far east command in Tokyo. the deputy commander of the 9th Army in Korea and a top member of the LIN arnistice negotiating team.
 Maj. Gen. Henry I. Hodes, now the deputy 3th Army commander and "a truce negotiator, will take over a combat division in Korea, the announcement says.
 Maj. Gen. William w. Harrison, Jr., now commander of the 9th Training Division at Fort Dix, N. J., will assume Hodes' 8th Army job. Maj. Gen. Claude B. Fe-enbaugh, commander of the 7th Division in Korea. will replace him on the truce team.
 The reassignment order obviously was prepared several weeks ago, be- fore the present stage of truce ne- gotiations.

Bishop (rimoni Is
 Honored, Spokane's Gonzaga University

SPOKANE = The new women's residence hall at Gonzaga univer- sity, the first in the university's GA year history, has been officially named Crimont hall announces the Very Rev. Francis Corkery, S.J.. university president.
 The hall is named for Bishop Joseph Raphael Crimont, S.J, DD., first Jesuit bishop of Alaska, and former president of Gonzaga uni versity.
 The residence hall is spacious four story home at E526 Sinto, pur- chased by the university and just opened this fall. Some 35 out of town coeds are residing there. Mrs. Edna Mulligan is the housmother.
 The late Bishop Crimont was a well known figure in Spokane ana the entire northwest and Alaska. He was born in 1858 in Ferrieres near Amiens in northern France. When the Rev. Joseph Cataldo, Sd, one of the pioneers of the west. went to Europe in the 1880's to re- cruit missionaries to the United States, Bishop Crimont, then a scho- lastic in the Jesuit order, answered Father Cataldo's call. He came to the United States in 1886 as mis- sionary to the Crow Indians in Montana.
 He was ordained in 1888 and be- came a naturalized citizen in 1893. The following year, 1894, he went to Alaska where he became superior of the Holy Cross mission in the Yukon. In 1901 he became presi- dent of Gonzaga university.
 During his years as the university president he greeted President The odore Roosevelt during his visit to Spokane and Gonzaga university.
 Bishop Crimont was named pre- feet apostolic of the Catholic Alaska mission in 1904 and in 1917 became the first Bishop of Alaska. He was Bishop during both world war and II and saw the dog sled travel change to airplane travel. He was instrumental also in the canoniza- tion of Mother Cabrini.
 In 1922 he celebrated his 18th anniversary as Bishop at the age of 84 and is listed as the oldest Bishop in point of years in the American heirarchy.
 He died May 20, 1945, and is buried at the Little Flower of Terese shrine in Juneau. The shrine was built under his leader ship as Bishop by Rev. William LeVasseur, S.J., who recently re- turned from Alaska and is now supervisor of the Neg Perce Indian mission and St. Joseph's children's home in Culdesac, Idaho.

Children Should Be
Seen and Not Hurt!
It's Spring again!

And and more boys and girls riding
bicycles, roller skating playing ball and enjoying
many other outside games. This means there
youngsters on the streets.
Sheer childish exuberance and thoughtlessness
make Spring, with its nice weather, hazardous
time for children. anxious time for parents and
teachers, and responsible time for motorists.
When Spring first invites children's outdoor ac-
tvities four five months of pentup energy are
unleashed suddenly and safety training learned in
the Fall may have been largely forgotten.
Motorists must realize that children likely
10 be unpredictable and irresponsible Responsible
tty must therefore be assumed by motorists, par
ents and teachers.
The knowledge that he may not be legally re-
sponsibe for accident involving child would
be small consolation to any driver. The parents
emorse would stem not from he did but from what
he did not do. 1t is the parents obligation and the
motorists responsibility to give the child the bene-
tit of his most careful driving.
Too few parents realize that traffic accidents,
according to the National Safety Council kill more
children to Is old than any disease. Par
ents will bundle the youngsters up in Chilly wealth
hurry them to the doctor at the first sniffle and
teach them neglect scratches and cuts but in
many instances they turn them loose with scant,
no. instruction in protecting themselves in traffic.
The way your child walks and plays may
well determine his future or lack of it.
Here hints for parents to follow in
keeping their children from being killed injured
In traffic accidents
ONE - Teach your children that the streets and
highways are for cars, not scOOters, tricycles
play.
TWO Teach them to cross the street ut the
corner preferably at one with an automatic signal
traffic officer; to look both ways then for turn
ing traffic, and only when the way is clear.
THREE Cooperate fully with p ice and
school officials in enforcing safety rules.
FOUR - Set example of safe behavior in
traffic.

practically all his life, when things got tough the
sorry but have to lay you off and then the next
some one in that was buying him drinks supply

Now he is protected by the union am speaking
OF, Local IL, and the wages have gone from 35c up
to as high as $2.35 an hour. don't think you could
beat the average any place in the country.
Now we have insurance and sick and hospital
care with weekly benefits too and old age pen
sion which can't be beat any place Conditions
very good in any of our shops if we have the right
committee in there and if they need any help the
union that you represent always that they get it.
1t has been long time ago that we started the
industrial union, but it has never progressed here
in Local IL until you became the president of It,
We had fellows that wanted to get just divvy
while they were acting union officers but after
you took office it really went to town. We only had
about half dozen shops in it but after you became
the President it grew high about rs shops.
Then you became the Regional Director. glad
that got but you should of had it several years
before Then you got to be Vice President. More
power to you Dick you deserve all that's coming to
you and hope that the union will progress with

The Toledo Blade
Gentlemen:
After reading all about the so-caI1ed attack on
reading Martins recent articles on Local II cleo
tions it seems to that there would be question
in the minds of the good union people who work
in the various shops and that would be to ask him
how he felt after selling his soul for few paltry
pennies.
Martin claims that he has known Richard Cos
ser since they were kids. But yet he couldn't have
really known him. not really, he would have
realized that Mr.. Gosser could not be capable of
doing all the underhanded things that Martin s
accusing him of doing~ Dick Gosser is in office on
his own merits and accomplishments. You say,
Toots, that you have done many good things in
this labor movement but just exactly what it
few grievances that you might have settled-a
few contracts that you might have got signed?
Because, in your article, you say you did all the
routine things such handling grievances and ne
gotiating contracts That's all. But what specific,
great things have you done for the workers? Com
pared to your accomplishments take look at Dick
GoSSer's union record Quite comparison, isn't it?
Therefore, Mr. Martin, one of the great things
you could have Gone for the workers in your
shop and other shops in the city, just slipped by
out the help of Paul Block Jr, would be to inform
the people, while you International Rep
resentative, in union meeting, of the very bad"
things that were going in Local IL elections But
you didn't then. Now you do. Who will believe you,
Mr. Martin? The members of your Union Equity

LIFE-SAVING ANSWER

Do you know the answer to this mathemat-

If you add and caution to your driving
skill, subtract speed when you are passing
through school zones and residential areas, mul-
tipIy your road safety habits and permit nothing
TO divert your attention to the road ahead of you
what is the answer?
The answer may be the life of some boy or
