Lichtman had a terrific rep

was ice cold in his appraisal of
pictures which he had to sell.

Don't Bic The Hand That's Feeding You

This week the Alaska Steam made momentous decision Screaming two inch headlines announcing Alaska Steamship Company to end Passenger Service''
 Just few facts and figures to show what the curtament of passenger service will Alaska and especially Kodl ak in the months Alaska does fifteen milo1 dollar tourist business every year. fact the tourist trade ranks third in value the Territory dollars and cents The tour trade curtamen will set Alaska back 20 years stated Brad Phillips Chairman ofthe Anchorage tourist and trade Committed of the Chamber of Commerce Various ways and means have been attempted by the Steamship Company combat the deficit they have been operating under for the past years and still the loss last year claimed to be $420000
 Unionm good thing for the working but IS the contention of that the Unions largely responsible for this deficit The company has been forced to carry full all voyages regardless of the number of passen gers
 It stands that the number of Union Maritime Elm poyees on ship carrying capacity load ofpassengers should be greater than the ship carrying twenty alean trip And yet the Union compe the Steamship Com pany to employ the full number of employees both trips h other words each passenger would have four or five attend ants including water cooks and cabin boys all getting top wages Does nt make much sense does it?
 As stated before Unionism good thing until any partc uar Union symes it's personnel into unemployment through jealous program to load hiring when
 dat agency could carry it's business with about half
 e pay roll it forced into paying by that Unisns umatu
 It seem if the Maritime Unions have bit the hand that kSs been feeding them. .rz

iva. KEEPS RIGHT TO
HOLD VALLEY POWER
RATES AT LOW Level

WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-
Tennessee Valley Authority keeps it's
right to hold down electric rates in
its area. The House has also decided
IVA shouldn't be forced to pay in
terest on government loans.
For 20 years, IVA has been able
to fix the rates cities, co-ops, and
private utilities charge their custo-
mers for TVA-generated power.
Without that right, IVA spokesman
feel cities might boost rates to get
more operating revenue and firms
might raise rates to increase prof
its. IVA wants power sold at the
lowest possible rates.
iva already turns over every
thing it makes to the U. S. treasury.
Forcing it to pay 21a % interest on
the $500 million invested in power
wouldn't mean more for the treasury.
The House gave IVA $1O3.6 mil
lion for 1954-55. It's not enough to
start new steam plants to meet ap-
preaching power shortages. Valley
congressman tried three times to
boost IVA appropriations. Each at
tempt was beaten on party lines =
Democrats for, Republicans against.
In the midst of House debate Con-
gressmen Ralph W. Gwinn Urn. "
shouted that IVA is socialist, COM
