President
 Chamber of Commerce Seward, Alaska.
 Dear Sir.
 HaVing broken the ice in the relationship between Seward, Nebraska and Seward, Alaska, 1t is our desire to keep things going.
 We are shipping two metal highway markers, reading 'oeW- ard, Nebraska. 4l35 Miles. Thought you might like to post these iu d conspicuous space. We have two here in Seward, Ne bras.la on our main street read ing Seward, Alaska 4135 Mile" which are creating q lot Of at tcntion.
 Seward, Nebraska now has a nice bowling alley and the game which Seward, Alaska challeng- ed us to last year can now be played. Figure out the details and send them along.
 We are working on sending our Basket Ball team up your way and though if may or may not be possible this year, we are going to try. Both towns would receive an enormous amount of publicity, most likely some magazine such as Look would send a camera man along.
 Let Us hear from you
 Sincerely yours, HAROLD JAMESON PS. We are showing the one hour movie we took on our trip ltp there this Summer several nights each week. We should be on the pay roll of the Alaska Chamber of Commerce.

"God Bless You and Be Hea!+hy.'' '' Writes Korean Orphon

A little handmade Christmas card, made with colorcd cray ons, bearing the picture of a church, a decorated Christmas tree, sun, moon and stars, touch ed the hearts of all present at the Eastern Star meeting this week. The card is from Han Whang Chul, Korean orphan child adopted by the Seward Chapter. He is Ii years old.
 ms.de the folded card was a letter from the little boy:
 My Dear Sponsor:
 How are you dear sponsor. l am do.ns well with pleasure every day, owing to your spon- sorship with love. 1 am healthy and also getting grown up in heighth more than before
 Il will do my best 10 study hard and be useful person in the future to please you in order to award your gratefuIncss.
 I also hope you do love me forever. God may bless you and be healthy --..~
 Your loving,
 Han Whang Chul."
 Han Whang Chul is in the Sac Dol Children's Home at Pusan. Korea, where Americans are caring for a large number of war orphans These children can be sponsored for the small sum of SPA per year. It is hard to realize in this country that a child can live on such paltry sum. Anyone wishing to send gifts to this child or any other may do so by getting the com plete address.
 In addition to the Christmas greeting, Han Whang Chul en- closed a snap shot of himself and others of basketball group. Of this he says, Some US. sol diers taught us to play basket ball. It's lots of fun. We wish we could challenge the boys and girls of your town"

Brennan Indictment in
Secret 1estimonyCa

|: The Government will drop the
indictment against Ray Brennan
Chicago Sun-Times reporter, ac-
cused OF posing as an official OF
the Senate Crime Committee, but
it intends to seek another, firmer
one on Tuesday.
In series of maneuvers in the
U. S. District Court for the Dis
trict of Columbia yesterday. Mr.
Brennan came out winner of the
first round. The case was before
Judge James r. Kirkland.
! Judge Kirkland refused to dis
miss the indictment against Mr
Brennan. as requested by his at
torney, George Young, in a morn
ing appearance. But, he ordered
Assistant United States Attorney
Frederick Smithson to furnish Mr..
Young with bill of particulars,
clarifying the charges.
Charges Not Clear.
The judge said Mr.. Young had
some merit in his argument that
the indictment did not specify
clearly the offense charged to Mr..
Brennan. He ordered the bill of
particulars to be delivered to the
defense before 4 pm.
At 2:30 pm. Mr.. Smithson
went before Judge Kirkland and
said the Government had decided
to drop the indictment on Tues
day when the case came up for
trial. But, he said. he intended to
take the Government witnesses
right over to the grand jury and
try to get another indictment.
Mr.. Smithson said this decision
was made after consultation with
United States Attorney Charles M.
1relan. Since Judge Kirkland. in
asking for the bill of particulars.
had indicated the indictment
might not be drawn properly, it
was decided to seek f1rmer in
dictment, he added.
Secret Testimony Involved.
The reporter is accused of posing
as an office manager of the Sem
ate Crime Committee in Noven-
Der. 1850, to obtain a CODY of secret
testimony. The testimony was that

Moore that Keen be punished only
by a $3.50 fine. Judge Moore in
sisted, however, the offense called
for a sentence. But he agreed to
suspend it and put Keen under
probation for one year.
Two other charges lodged
against Keen when he was ar
rested were dropped by Mr.. Pyles
They were charges of exhibiting
obscene film and importing into
Maryland films that had not
passed the State Board of Censors

speculations and in gambling on
sports and elections.

obtained from the Anderson Re-
porting Co., official reporters for
