Easter time, symbol of spring and the blossom ing of growing things in most parts of the world has the meaning in Nome although the earth is still covered by carpet of winter snow. It is also the time when church attendance hits its peak and many people attend church only that day every year. to worship tribute to the immortality of the spirit and the indestructibility of the soul.
 Easter is the most joyful time of the year it marks the triumph of life over death It is time to pause and remember the things for which are working The right to faith which gives life it's richest meaning; the freedom to work for personal goals rather than in the service of slave state.
 Free men of faith have one weapon which can- not be touched by enemy regardless of his martial strength faith in God and in His power"
 So strengthened in our faith and in deter imitation that good shall triumph let work, each in his way to safeguard the brotherhood of man and to assure that there will indeed, come time of peace on earth to men of good will

Latest A-Blast Is Puzzle To Observers

LAS VEGAS, New, LR - About half of the 30O-foot tower used in Tuesdays atomic blast was left standing, an AEC source says, which makes the puzzling shot even more of a puzzle to those outside the curtain of secrecy sur rounding test explosions.
 In previous .detonations, SO far as is known, the towers have been vaporized, leaving no appreciable trace.
 The other unusual features of the blast:
 Its cloud was a mere WiSp of white, compared to the boiling smoke mass of most previous shots, and was not visible in Las Vegas 75 miles away, as is GUS. tomary. The shock wave, usually felt here, was not noted. But on the proving ground, observers got their strongest jolt of the current series.
 The AEC source would not am- plify Tuesday statement which said the test involved an expert mental device which might re- suit in new weapon"

Weather Bureaus Across Nation Measure Radio Activity from A-Blasts

NEW YORK, R-Weather bu- reau stations across the country daily set up "flypaper" apparatus to trap and measure electronically radioactive dust from the Nevada atomic blasts
 However, the New York office of the Atomic Energy Commission said Thursday the increase of radioactivity in the air after a nuclear blast is small and not dangerous.
 An AEC spokesman said the readings also serve to gather still more knowledge on the patterns of dust distribution. The daily radio-activity map, he added, shows that the movement of dust clouds is west to east.

Time Has Come For Newsprint Industry in Alaska

WASHINGTON, R-The Forest Service has told Congress that the time has come for successful de velopment of neWsprint industry in Alaska to meet anticipated newspaper printing needs.
 At the same time, existing sup plies of newsprint were reported to be adequate for 1853 although the long-range prospect was for increased demand.
 Ira J. Mason, chief of the Divi- sion of Forest Management of the Agriculture Department Forest Service, and H. B. Mccoy, Ma tional Production Authority ad- ministrator, brought the House Interstate Commerce Committee up to date on the newsprint sit uation.
 Mason. told the committee We'd nesday that the Tongass National Forest in southeastern Alaska has 78 billion board feet of timber available for pulping operations, with expenditures of no more than 10 million dollars required to construct main access roads. He said the Forest Service be- lieves 'the time has arrived where it is possible to develop major pulp and paper industry in Alaska which can compete successfully in national and world markets"
 The first major pulp plant in Alaska is now under construction and is scheduled to go into full operation July l, 1854, with a daily capacity Of $50 tons of pulp.
 The committee has had the neWsprint situation under con- tinuing study for a number of years as paper for newspapers has come in increasingly tight supply. Prices at the same time have risen to $126 a ton, putting an economic squeeze on many publishers.

LEST WE FORGET An Unorthodox Easier Meditation
 1853
By L. E. oST


 Eighty-six years ago we had one of the best Presidents we have ever had in the United States, a MAN-Abraham Lincoln
 At that time we also had Re- publican Secretary of State, Will liam Seward. Eighty-six years ago this week the Republican William Seward bought Alaska from the Russians for the then staggering price of $7,2O0,0OO for the United States of America. How would it be for the Eskimos, Aleuts and Indians of Alaska today if those Republicans had not bought AL aska away from under Russian domination? As for the white peo- ple-how many would be here?
 Those Republicans set the col cred people free from internal domination, and they set Alaska free from external slavery. Today we again have Republican Pres ident for our land who would set us free from the oppressive tax slavery under which we have been sold for some time. Certainly every right thinking Alaskan should whole-heartedly unite be- hind our Republican President to help set us free from the very present danger of being sold into slavery under Russian-American Communism.
 Let us not forget-Let us try to realize what the danger is to us, who want to be free under law, when approximately one billion seven hundred million people of the world today are under less or more Communistic influence. This is not idle speculation. It is the stark fact facing us as real free domloving people.
 True anarchism is originally supposed to be a government by an inner law, free from any ex- ternal law. But human nature, being what it is, compels a gov ernment by external law. Under our republican form of govern ment we still have the right to seek redress from oppressive laws and also from oppressive situa- tions.
 Nineteen hundred fifty three years ago, one, greater than be- loved Lincoln and Seward, died and rose again at Calvary's Hill to set us free from eternal slavery. This Easter week shall we not again whole heartedly dedicate ourselves and our all to the Christ of Calvary, that men and women shall have eternal freedom under Gods Law of Grace?
 As the beautiful Easter lily de- lights our eye, so let the sweet fragrance of the risen Christ dom- mate our lives, and we shall not have lived in vain.

COLD WAR VICTORY FOR IKE

President Dwight D. Eisenhower's administration scored a major victory recently when Anthony Eden announced that Britain would no longer allow goods to travel to Communist China in British ships The British action removed of the sorest spots in US. U.K relations.
 The order is more important than first meets the eye, since it means the British are refusing to allow their supply ports all the world to refuel ships carrying war goods to China. This may hurt almost much the ban against British ships carrying the Reds cargo, since ships of many nations depend on British ports in Asia and the world to sustain them in Asian waters.
 The British move is another step in the program to make the in Korea increasingly difficult and unpopular in China, and from that standpoint is def mite triumph for the Eisenhower administration.
 If you've missed the boat, there's not much use waiting for your ship to come in.
