In memory of our dear wife and
mother, Annie 5. Wilson, who passed
away February "a, 1851:
Our memory often wanders as twi-
light shadows fall
Back to the days of happiness, far
beyond recall;
And a vision comes before us so calm,
so dear, so sweet,
OF her, whose lips are silent,
Whose eyes are closed in sleep.
God has taken home our Mother,
Placed her head among His flowers,
Taken back to the one He lent us
To a better home than ours.
Although our hearts are heavy,
May it ease the pain we bear,
Just knowing that our dear one
Is loved and cared for there,
With our Saviour she is waiting
In that upper garden fair,
She is watching for our coming;
There will be no parting there.
Peaceful be thy rest, dear Mother,
1t is sweet to breathe thy name,
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.
In Gods tender hands entrusting,
Every link in loves bright chain,
Is a blessed hope that whispers,
! Mother, we will meet again.

House Group Hits Justice Tom Clark For Bad Judgment

WASHINGTON, R)-A House judiciary subcommittee closed it's books on the 1946 Kansas. City vote fraud case Saturday with a final blast against Supreme Court Justice Tom Clark for using what it called extremely poor judg- ment."
 Clark, then attorney general, approved an inappropriate, inn proper and unheard of" method of limiting a preliminary FBI in vestigation in the case, top con- mitteemen said.
 Chairman Chef D-Ky) and Rep. Heating R-NYO said in joint statement Friday that this final judgment" of Clark's pro- cedure was supported by secret testimony taken from former At torney General Francis Riddle. The testimony also was released.
 Heating also told newsmen Saturday the committee had ob- tained new and "very significant evidence" in another phase of it's investigation of the Justice De- partment.
 He would not discuss the evi- dence, but indications were it con- cerned the activities of a promi- nent Chicago politician in re- cent case handled Nby the depart ment against the Pabst Brewing Company.
 The fresh evidence came during a closed door session Saturday with Raoul Berger, former Jus tice Deparment attorney who rep resented Pabst in troubles with the government last year.
 The company was charged with violating Pure Food laws by main taining an unsanitary granary in Peoria, III. A civil suit was dis missed but the company was fined $500 on conviction of criminal charges which it neither contested nor admitted.

Secret Radar Base Built
Continued from Page One)

Continued from Page One) < the code name "Spaarvohn" in honor of the 'coptery pilot.
 The next day, 20 more men were flown there, along with a tractor frame and tracks. Within the next 20 days, 130,0O0 pounds of supplies and equipment, in- cluding three tractors and bull dozers were dropped by para chute.
 An airstrip was scraped out of the muskeg on a per cent grade in the valley at the foot of the mountain. C-82 Flying Boxcars were able to make the risky land ings. But so dangerous is the let down and landing that replace ment pilots must make 12 trips from central supply base to the strip before handling the con- trols themselves.
 The radar base was put into

operation last December, and per manent buildings and barracks were completed this summer.
 Weather conditions are ex- tremely severe and hazardous. Twice last December the radar towers blew down.
 Later, in the dead of winter with the thermometer down to 60 below zero, two officers were blown off the mountain by a 120- mile an hour wind. It took them 26 hours to walk back to the base on the other side.
 The station was put up by men of the 531st and an Army Avi- ation construction battalion.
 Men now stationed there re- ceive double credit toward rota- ton. The normal Alaska tour of duty now is two years.

POWER OF ONE VOTE

This column is addressed to the nearly fifty per cent of eligible Alaskan voters who, election after cleo on fail to make the short journey to the polls to do their American duty If you have been regular voter and if you have planned to vote tomorrow, don't waste your time by reading any further
 And with all dutiful citizens turned elsewhere in this newspaper, let address the sackers
 Upon you depends the preservation of representa- tive government and our capitalistic system The trend which started several years ago with fewer and fewer people voting Election Day, is alarming Representa- tive government be perpetuated and individual freedom and responsibility preserved only when the majority of the people speak In the Presidential cleo on of 1948 less than half of the eligible voters in the United States went to the polls.
 If you and the others who have summed the polling booths do not begin to exercise your right to vote, the rule of the majority will become the rule of the few This not only applies in national gov ernment butts equally true in territorial and nicpal governments.
 But, do we hear you say, What good will my one little vote do? That vote of yours is not little vote it is powerful one The value of one vote has many times proven to the election defeat of parti cular candidate; has meant the passing defeat of an important piece of legislation for example,
 The Alaska Statehood Bill was defeated in the last Congress by one vote.
 Thomas Jefferson was elected President of the United States by one vote in the Electoral College
 John Quincy Adams got to be Chief Executive be- of one vote.
 Rutherford B. Hayes made the White House by vote His election contested and referred to an Electoral Commission Again his margin of victory was just vote.
 The States of California, Idaho Oregon, Texas and Washington taken into the Union by virtue of a single vote
 Yes, indeed, your vote is important. Remember
 Bad officials elected by the good citizens who do not take the trouble to vote; that voting is your of freedom; that your very future depends upon your vote Election Day.
 Whatever your choice, do your job-exercise the power of that one ballot-vote tomorrow

Best Basement Floors Are Laid Over Gravel Cnders
By Dovid G. Borenther

There's much more to q good
basement floor than the smooth
dry surface you look at and walk
on. When properly built, it's not
Just q slab Of concrete hiding the
earth that once served as the floor
of most cellars.
II basement floor is laid in di-
rect contact with the earth, it's
bound to be more or less damp. It
may draw moisture up through
capillary attraction, and being
perpetually cool It will aid and
abet condensation. You won't be
able to keep floor paint ON it and
chances are you'll have plenty of
trouble trying to keep asphalt tile
bonded to it. 49,
The best basement floors are
laid over a bed of 4 to 6 inches of
coarse gravel or cinders with a
layer of Tapped 35-pound asphalt
roll roofing Sandwiched in be-
tween. Or with a 2-inch collcrete
subfloor under a hot-mopped two
layer minimum of membrane
waterproofing.
y When the natural water table
the ground water level;-is
known to be relatively high, al
layer Of hollow clay or concrete
block is laid fiat on the ground
before the floor felt and concrete
slab are laid. Sometimes an inch
Of sand or mortar topping is
placed over the hollow clay or con-
crete block. .-
Where the water table is low,
footing drains can be depended on
to carry of excess water and a
subfloor drain may not be needed.
But a gravel or einder base as an
equivalent to a layer of tile is al
ways important to reduce capil-
larity and insulate the floor
against condensation.
'Ff The best basement floors are
separated from the foundation
footings by the under-fioor felt |
or membraning, and they are sep
arated from the walls by a bitumi-
nous filler. This provides an ex-
pansion joint.
