A UNION OF FREE PEOPLES

The idea of federated Europe is running into some difficulties especially because the British and Canadians want part of any unlflcatlon that does not include the United States.
 Even the sponsors of the United States of Europe seem willing to swap the scheme for one that includes the Atlantic community, including the US. Already, they point out the free nations of this grouping have accepted military partnership and argue with some pausibiity that economic and political affinity is just as logical.
 We are quite prepared to admit that logic strongly urges the free nations of the earth to join hands and we know of no better proposal than that of Clarence Sret who years ago. proposed that the free nations emulate the example of the American colonies and form union that would be patterned after the ex- ample in this country
 We are ready to accept such union, which would joint defense common currency and free trade, provided that membership be limited to those coun- tries that have freedoms such as free press, free speech freedom of religious worship trial by jury and popular self-government. We would not want to be tied up, even remotely, with any other nation.

Mining Congress Asks Return To Gold Standard

LOS ANGELES, (P) - Tn e American Mining Congress adopted a recommendation Mon day that producers of gold should be allowed to sell it domestically or abroad.
 It adopted a resolution demand ing a return to the gold standard to check imitation and urged re- moval of restrictions on Ameri- cans ownership of gold.
 A currency not backed by gold and silver, the resolution said, in- vi.es unrestrained deficit finan- cing, waste and careless accept ance of commitments impossible for future generations to meet"
 In a second resolution, the min ing congress asked "streamlin- ing and simplification of govern ment agencies, and the elimin- ation of multiplicity of bureaus dealing with mining activities"
 A return of free, private com petitive enterprise" in the mining industry was also sought in a third resolution which included the pledge of "unyielding oppo- Sition to communism"

U. s. NAVY IN MEDITERRANEAN

Not generally known in the United States is the fact that the US. Sixth Fleet operating in the Mediterranean consists of seventy warshps and repre- sents the most powerful operating unit that has sailed under the American flag in time of peace
 The fleet which protects the southern flank of the free nations of Europe is headed by the 45O0Oton air craft carrier, Coral Sea- which is of the worlds largest ships It will work in conjunction with British and French naval units and in the event of an emer- gency provide defense forces of Western Europe with the same type of air and shore bombardment that given troops in Korea by the Seventh Fleet
 Good resolution and babies crying in church are lot alike both should be carried out immediately.

John Mccormick, Head
 Alaska Selective Service, Explains New Draft Law

John Mccormick, Alaska head of the Selective Service, accom- panied by It. Col. Oscar E. Cut ting, conferred with the local draft board for several hours Monday, reviewing the regula- tions of the new draft law as passed last June.
 Most important in the new reg ulations is tn e change which makes married men without chil- dren eligible.
 MT. Mccormick called attention to the fact that registrantS de- ferred for educational or other reasons, are subject to induction up to the age of 35 years.
 Another important feature, he said, was concerning men who belong to reserve components and who joined them between the dates Feb. l, 1851, and July 1, 1851. Induction may be post poned as long as they attend drills and other requirements. If their unit is not on active duty, they are subject to induction un- til they reach the age of g years and nine months.
 MT. Mccormick and Col. Cut ting left yesterday for Fairbanks.

Reindeer Herd Started On St. Paul Island

A nucleus of a reindeer herd was successfully transported re- gently to St. Paul Island in the Pribilofs from Nunivak Island, Dale Belcher, assistant director of the Alaska Native Service native resources division, said re- gently in Juneau.
 The reindeer numbering 31 were transferred from the govern ment owned herd under the juris- diction of the native service on Nunivak to the Fish and Wild life Service for the purpose of giving the natives on St. Paul another source of food supply.
 It was necessary to "hog-tie" each of the animals in transport ing them in smaller boats to the FWS vessel Penguin II, for ship ment to St. Paul, Belcher said. The Penguin had to anchor off the island. Nunivak Island is just north of the mouth of the Kusko- kWim River in the Boring Sea. NL~ N,.s~y~ n~~,S1&c

Council Holds Busy Session Monday Evening

Due to the serious illness of Councilman Alexander and the resignation of E. Straub, several matters before the Council were postponed last Monday evening until next Monday evening, Oct 29th.
 The material for the applica- ton for Social Security for muni- cipal employees has been received and the resolution for completing the papers will be acted upon at the special meeting next week.
 It was reported that the match ing fund of the territory, known as the Grant in Aid for school repairs totalling over $28,000, will assist the city materially, inso- much as the city will only have to put up 35 cents on the dollar or about $10,000 for these repairs. This plan was originally accepted by the Council last year.
 An agreement has been drawn up to be submitted to those buSi- ness houses who use city drains throughout the winter months According to city officials, this practice is costly to the city, as considerable thaWing has to be done every spring.
 The new fire engine has been received and Councilman Reader will head the installation.
 It was reported that more city street lights and light fixtures have been broken by vandalS in the past few months than in any other year in the history of the city. The city officials are plan ming drastic action against the violators, who apparently are children who have not been taught to respect public property. Over $500 has been spent in re- placements.
 The Health Committee reported that the sanitary services are in violation of City Ordinances Nos 282 and 346 by the use of the ramp built in the east end of town. Due to the complaints of the people living in that area the services are being ordered by the Council to cease using the ramp.
