TWO FORMER RESIDENTS
 ARRIVE HERE THIS WEEK

Two former residents of Kodiak, Leo and Ray Sears, arrived in town Tuesday. Both expect to re main here for the summer and early fall.
 The Sears are now living n Santa Barbara, Ray having moved there with his family in 1854. Leo, his wife Jerry and the children moved to the same city last year. The two brothers report their fam lilies all well, and enjoying the California climate. MT. and Mrs. Sam Sears are still in Santa Bar bara. They also report that Tom Silcox, who was also former resi- dent here, will remain in the Cali fornia city. It was at first thought that he woul be here this summer also.
 Leo and Ray will build a litney and fish for Halferty's Cannery this summer.

latter was felt to be too small. An other, the ten mile" clause. was also discussed very thoroughly, as was that of the suggestion that all purchases made from mail order houses be taxed. Mayor Johnson stated this feature had been dis. cussed at great length, but no solu- tion as to how to levy it had been found.
 It was proposed that it be made possible for the merchant to ab- sorb the tax if he so desired. The ordinance in its present form indi- cates the tax be added to the pur- chase price.
 It was brought out at the meet ing that $500,0O0 is the sum to be raised by the tax, allocated in sums of $250,000 each for Small Boat Harbor and street and road improvement.
 Speakers from the audience sug- gested the Council have a concrete plan to follow in the expenditures of the funds, which could be used by the present Council and future City government officials.

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, March IA, in an interview here today, G. D. Abbott, international hair and scalp consultant and Director of Merrill Hair & Scalp Consultants, said: There are many different scalp conditions that may cause men and women to lose their hair. Using common sense. person must realize no one tonic or so called cure-all can correct all these different conditions" he explained.
 READ WHAT A FEW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE AMERICAN HAIR AND SCALP ASSOCIA- TONS MANY SATISFIED CLIENTS HAVE SAID ABOUT THEIR HOME TREATMENT IN THEIR UNSOLICITED REPORTS; THERE ARE MANY MORE IN OUR FILES:
 My hair has grown very much, you can see new hair all over my scalp. The new hair looks lively and much better. l am well pleased with my hair, it looks so much bet ter and much thicker and I thank you so much"

Treatment are given this guaran- tee, If you are not completely satisfied at the end of thirty days, your money will be returned" This is only because most people are skeptical of claims that hair can grow on balding heads. Usual ly when a person avails himself of the Merrill treatment, his skepti- cism disappears.
 No Cure-All
 we have no cure-all for slick, shiny badness" Abbott empha- sizes. If there is still fuzz, that hair follicle of the scalp is still producing hair. Merrill's users have grown hair. We have many reports testifying that after using our home treatment, weak fuzz has developed into healthy mature hair. Proper use of this home treatment may bring about a healthy scalp condition which will help the body to produce new hair. If there is any fuzz at all, a healthy scalp condition may be re- stored, and the hair may grow normally again as nature intend ed" There is one thing Abbott wants to be certain every man and woman knows. If a recession ap- pears at the temple or a spot be- gins to show up on the crown of the head, there is something wrong and it should be given immediate attention.
 Free Examination
 In addition to reexamining present clients, the Merrill method of home treatment will be demon strated to others who are interest ed. The examination is very thor ough and highly technical. It re- quires 20 to 30 minutes. The Con sultant makes no charge for this examination and no appointment is necessary. After examining the person, he is told the required length of treatment and how much it will cost. Regular reports are made to the Merrill firm in Okla homa City to check the progress of the home treatment.

Sales Tax Views Aired At Meeting

NUuuSn AicL dt du OPCu AuCCtlhS at the Elks Club. About sixty-five people attended, and aired their views on sections of the ordinance. Mayor Johnson presided.
 Main objections centered around the proposal to tax rentals, enter tainment, particularly certain ad- mission categories, and transporta. tion tax on children's bus fares.
 John Fletcher, manager of the Orpheum Theatre, asked for q consideration of his proposal that existing student and ehildren's rates not be taxed. The present rate of 50 cents will have to be upped to 50 cents, he said, because the Federal tax of five cents on charges of over fifty cents will then apply. We worked for two years to institute the low stu,!ent rate," he said, which was estab- lished to give the student a break"
 Jim Loan also requested consid- eration be given school children and Boy Scout troops, in setting a tax on bus transportation for these age groups.
 Jack Hinckel sought clarification on certain sections of the proposed ordinance. He thought sub-head b, under Section 4 should be clari fled. Speaking later, he gave it as his opinion the ordinance should be very specific as to what item is to be taxed.
 Dr. Sullivan and Dr. Bob John son both expressed the belief there should be no tax on drugs or medi- cine sold by prescription, and that there should be no tax on medical, dental or hospital services. Dr. Johnson stated the tax does not apply to these services in any Al askan cities having the tax.
 Commander J. w. Grant, District Legal Officer at the Naval Station, the Navy's position on the proposed charge on rentals. He read excerpts from the Adju- tant Generals letter from Washing ton, DC, seeking the elimination of this form of tax. He stated it would work hardship on military personnel, and civilian workers. The former, he said, especially those in the lower rates, are find ing it difficult even now to meet the high cost of rentals and ser vices in the Aleutian Homes pro. ject and other housing in town. Payment of the tax would fall on the U. s. Government, he said, which is already spending huge sums to keep personnel here. He also explained the difficulty in securing civilian workers on the Naval Station, due to the high cost of living here. We have reached the limit" he said, i've are unable to subSidize their (servicemen) coming here, further"
 He then went on to state that ac- cording to survey made, service men without rates buy less food than others. They just haven't the money to buy the food, after rent and utility services are paid" he said.
 Grant intimated that failure to give the Navy's proposal consider ation and the increased costs, which he said are already prohibi- tive in Alaska, may result in with drawal of the Naval Station, which would be established in a less cost ly area. "The tax on rentals is un- ique," he said. He also criticized taxing transients for permanent improvements.
 H. F. Macdonald also spoke in behalf of eliminating tax on rent als. The serviceman already pays a tax of $293 a year when he pays his rent" he said. This figure ap. plies to the Aleutian Homes.

Alaska IWeutherynne'

Those who profess to be able to fore
cast the political weather are running
true to form in their analyses of the
Alaska election returns.
With Alaska Democrats, on the whole.
winning comfortably over their Repub-
lican opponents, G. o. P. Chairman Len
Hall sees mo significance" in the returns.
But Adlai Stevenson, who can read the
weather signs just as we'll as Mr.. Hall.
halls the results as "the best news since
the Maine election"
For our part, 1t is bit difficult to
see how some $4,000 voters In Alaska.
concerned almost entirely with local
anairS, can serve on october 10 as a
reliable guide to the way in which so
million Americans will vote in a presi-
Dental election on November 6. But
since there are those who think that the
Alaska voting serves as political wealth
ervane, look at the record is in order.
The most significant contest in
Alaska presumably is the race for dele
gate to Congress. In that battle. E. L.
Bartlett, Democrat, was reelected for a
sixth term with about Sc per cent of the
VOTE
Mr.. Bartlett has run each time
against different Republican opponent.
In 1854, when the Democrats won control
OF Congress. he got 1873 per cent of the
Alaska vote. In 1852, the year of the
Eisenhower sweep, he got 566 per cent.
In 1850, when the Democrats retained
control of Congress, the Bartlett per-
centage was 726. In 1948, when Harry
Truman nosed out Governor Dewey, Mr..
Bartlett won his most impressive victory
-78.5 per cent. And in 1916, when the
Republicans won a smashing congress
sional victory, Mr.. Bartlett polled 703
per cent of the Alaska vote. We do not
know just what this adds up to. Perhaps
Mr.. Bartlett's Sc per cent in 1856 really
is some kind OF a political weathervane.
But 1t doesn't tell us which way the
presidential wind is blowing.

An AHment of Sorts

Despite widespread impression to
the contrary, most Frenchmen labor at
least as hard as most Americans for their
daily bread. In fact, more than a few
of them labor so hard that some of their
solicitous compatriots have decided to set
up in Paris an organization that will be
known henceforth as the Institute for the
Study and Prevention of Overwork. AS the
title implies, the Institutes main objective
will be to try to promote the public health
by dissuading people from undertaking to
do too much either as bosses or rank-and-
hle toilers in industry and agriculture.
Although 1t could be easily overdone
and abused, this seems to be a sound idea

fall into the middle of r street
NV, at the corner of Fiji

car, secured aid to help put

nearby house to get a friend
OF hers to accompany her to

given prompt emergency treat
ment and is now receiving ex-
cellent medical care. MY
mother had suffered a serious

could have resulted in a more

Tainted Testimony

There is no reason to doubt that
Communist Steve Nelson and four asso-
clates are guilty, as jury has found
them to be, of violating the Smith Acts
ban on advocating the violent overthrow
of this Government But Mr.. Nelson and
his comrades have Just won another
judicial reprieve.
The Nelson case has been in the Fed
eral courts for more than six years. He
was also convicted once under a State
sedition statute in Pennsylvania, but that
conviction was thrown out on the theory
that the Federal Government had taken
over the prosecution of sedition and allied
offenSes.
The latest reprieve came this week in
6-to-3 Supreme Court decision to send
the Smith Act case back for a new trial.
1t seems that the Department of Justice
FEELS that one Of its witnesses against two
OF Nelson's associates at the first trial
mas turned out to be liar. The depart
ment urged that the case be sent back
to the trial court for a finding as to
whether this witness had told the truth
at the trial despite his subsequent living.
The Supreme Court majority felt, how
ever, that new trial should be ordered
for all of the defendants.
This means, perhaps, that another
six years will elapse before there can be
a final determination of Nelson's guilt,
which is hardly open to question. Still,
desirable as it may be to speed UP the
processes OF criminal justice, it is more
desirable to guard against the chance
mat a conviction might rest in part on
tainted testimony.

Dr.. Mann Commended

Mann, director Of the Zoo is
to retire October 81.
I feel DR.. Mann is to be
commended for his excellent
Federal service and l hope
he will be given fitting recog-
milton for his outstanding
work. Our Washington Zoo
ranks second to none and the
wonderful way the animals are
cared for is a real tribute to
DR.. Mann's management.
l am not familiar with his
record but I am sure he has
served our Government and
the public well. All the new
buildings and the great num-
Der Of animals: the result of
his untiring efforts attests to
this.
He has been a careful PLAN
ner and has done what he
could to get additional park
ing space to accommodate the
motorist. Still we need more
parking space for the hun
dreds that want to see our
Zoo.
I do not know DR.. Mann. but
/ want to show my apprecia-
ton for his fine work. MY
children and I have spent
many happy hours at the Zoo.
