Spring Arrives
In Kodiak

Kodiak residents wondered
this week if spring had sprung
or if there was a hole in the
dixie. The official first day of
spring arrived along with
snow, rain and wind.
The wet, slushy condition
under foot did not reveal the
first green blade of grass and
the brisk winds carried away
any robins first song.
However, most residents
checked the day on the calen-
der and hopefully awaited
Kodiak's famous sunny
weather.

Stock Market C|ings
To Fractional Gains
AS Trading Recedes
BY the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK. Sept. 1.-THE
stock market held tenaciously to
small gains today, but the volume
of business dried up as prices ad-
vanced.
Price changes were mostly frac-
tional either way with the plus
signs predominating. Some of the
gains ran to between l and 2
points. but not many.
Business was at a rate of around
a million shares for the entire day,
a sharp repression from the $780,
600 shares traded yesterday.
Among major divisions on the
higher side were railroads, utili-
ties, non-ferrous metals, a few
chemicals and radio-television
issues.
Steels were unchanged to lower
most of the time while motors were
narrowly mixed. Neither was very
active.
Western Union was under
heavy pressure and lost between
2 and 3 points on Wall street re-
ports that John Fox, largest stock
holder, intended to liquidate his
holdings. Mr.. Fox recently pur-
chased the Boston Post.

Campbell and Broyhil
Trade Punches on
Foreign Policy Issues

Edmund D. Campbell. Demo-
cratic nominee. and Joel T. Broy-
hill. Republican, are continuing
to debate national issues in their
fight for the 10th District Con-
gressional seat from nearby Vir-
ginia.
Last night, foreign policy oc-
cupied a major part of their
speeches before approximately rs
people at Patrick Henry School in
Arlington.
Mr.. Campbell pointed to Gen.
Eisenhower's Endorsement of Sem
ator Jenner as "a positively shock
ing event" and emphasized Sena-
tor Jenner's voting record. He
shifted the attack to Mr.. Broy-
hill, calling his opponent IAN arch
Republican isolationist" and con-
tinued by claiming Mr.. Broyhill
supported Senator Taft for the
presidency before the Republican
National Convention.
"We should not send a Senator
Jenner to Congress from the 10th
district" Mr.. Campbell concluded.
Mr.. Broyhill charged that the
policies carried forth by "a motley
crew of political adventurers since
1882, instead Of containing COM
muniSm. have encouraged it," Mr..
Broyhill scored the Democratic
administration as having dis
astrous and unsound fiscal policy.
The Republican nominee con-
Itinued: Our laundering policy i'm
the Far East has led us to a war
in Korea. Do the parents who have
lost their sons in Korea approve
of the Democratic foreign policy
and how about the boys who are
still fighting over there?"
l In the question and answer pe-
',riod, Mr.. Campbell countered Mr.,
1Broyhill's charges that the ad-
miniStration had encouraged
rather than retarded communism.
'I"Our active part in the United
Nations, the Security and Point
Nv programs, and the Japanese
Treaty-a treaty of understanding
rather than revenge-have re.
,tarded Communism" Mr.. Camp
bell said. 1.-THE Marshall program.

keeping France from going com.
