give some insight into the future of local government
 Self Government
 The Constitution directs that AlaSkans shall have maximum of local self-government with a mini mum of local government units 1t suggests prevention of duplica- ton of tax-Ievying jurisdictions and liberal construction of powers given to local government units.
 Two Types
 Under statehood, local govern ment will be two types. First there will be the borough government. an intermediate unit between state and city government. Finally there v'll be city government. The Borough
 Letus first examine the borough
 
 government, its purposes and or ganizstsOn.
 The COnstitltion provides that -~sit of Alaska will be divided into boroughs. In densely populated areas, ttese vIl undoubtedly be organized bo:ouahs. In less popu- lated areas, the3 may be termed 'Unorganized" boroughs. Stan dardS and provisions for borough organization will be provided by the legislature.
 As the transitional articles of the Cdnstitution provide that cities, school districts, health districts, public utility districts and other local subdivisions of government existing on the effec- live date of the Constitution will continue to exercise their powers and functions under existing law until new legislation is provided to carry out the provisions of the Consultation, local government can continue as 1t is.
 in View of the many vitally pressing matters which must be considered by the first legislature. 
 lt is possible that local government organization may wait several years before fl can be studied and considered for legislative action.
 Borough Boundaries
 Let us clearly understand that the boroughs are not synonymous with the present state election districts, although possibly when standards for borough boundaries are determined. some boroughs and election districts could have the Saw2e boundaries. Ire borough Boundaries Will be dete, mined by 'an area and population with com non interests. The standards used 10 determine the limits of al borough shall include population, geography, economy, transporta- ti0D and other factors.
 Taxation and Debts
 
 The State will delgate taxing powers to organized boroughs and cities only. No debts may be con- tracted by the boroughs or cities unless authorized for capital i'm pfovements by the governing body of the unit and ratified by majority vote of those qualified to vDte and voting on the matter.
 The Assembly,
 The governing body of the sorough will be it's assembly. The composition of the assembly will be determined by the legislature or in the assembly'S charter. Each first class city and each city of any other class determined by law will be represented in the assembly by one or more members of its city council. Other assembly members will be elected from and by quail 4B

Ho Hum!

1t is getting to be bit monotonous
these pennant-winning ways of Casey
Stengels New York Yankees. But
monotony is the spice of life for or
Case, who now has tied the late Connie
Mack of the one-time Philadelphia Ath-
leticS for the honor of being manager
with the most pennants to his credit.
Each has nine league championships
marked after his name in the baseball
record books.
The only surprising annoying
thing about this years victory of the
Yanks, as far as Casey was concerned,
was the failure of his team to clinch the
flag several weeks sooner AS, matter
of fact, his boys did not look as good
during the latter part of the American
League race as they did earlier in the
season. Maybe the New Workers just
didn't want to make the contest look too
easy. In any event Milwaukee's Braves,
who are well on the way to being the
National League champions, had better
not judge Mr. Stengels outfit by its
performance in the past few weeks.
Those Yankees are as tough as the
callouSeS on Yogi Berras hands.
Meanwhile, monotony of another
kind engulfS our home team, the Wash
ington Senators. Cal Grifhths ne'er-
do-well club once more is assured of
cellar berth in their league, despite the
efforts of Roy Sievers and a few of his,
colleagues. That old saying about
/ Washington being first in war and peace
but last in the American League just
won't down.

Two Men of Destiny Meet

A summertime Sunday meeting in
the little French village of Colombey-
Les-Deux-Eglisesm may prove one day to
have been an important milestone in
the history of Western Europe. For 1t
was in that country retreat last Sunday
afternoon that Premier de Gaulle Of
France received Chancellor Adenauer
of West Germany in the first meeting
between these two leaders Of nations
now allied but often hostile in the past.
Appropriate to its setting, If not to its
Importance, this was a meeting OF great
est Neutrality-suspicious. an official
agenda or even an official record. And
from the time these two men of des-
tiny" shook hands warmly at the en-
trance to General de Gaulle's modest
villa there was every evidence of mutual
cordially and sincerity Not until early
evening did the Foreign Ministers of
the two governments join their chiefs
for brief review of the conversations
and issuance of joint communique.
With obvious deliberation, sthe COM
munique itself reflected the friendly
informality Of the conference, the feel
ing that ancient hoStilitieS have been
set aside and that common interests
rather than differences are prevailing
in the Paris-Bonn relationship. Signifi-
cantly, the communique emphasized
that French German harmony and CO.
operation not only are essential to the
two countries themselves but are basic
requirements in West European unity
and in maintaining the strength of the
Western alliance.
In sense, this meeting provides
one more chapter in the unwilling" of
the true personality and philosophy Of
General de Gaulle. There were many,
including DR.. Adenauer, who had reser-
vationS about the aloof French soldier
during his postwar years of self-imposed
isolation from the interminable political
squabbling in his country. There were
suspicious that he was waiting only the
time to lead a military dictatorship to
power that he favored a right-Wing
nationaliSm for France instead of par
ticipation in the economic and political
community projects. Since accepting
the premiership on June l, however, the
general has given no encouragement
to these fears. Establishment of a gen.
uine and lasting entente cordiale be-
tween France and West Germany could
indeed, as the Sunday conferees said, be
contribution benef1ting "all peoples
in the field Of great world problems"

Shaking Up the Boards

The record of reappointments tends
to support the Commissioners belief that
the membership of the city'S numerous
examining boards for the trades and
professions has gotten into a rut. The
practice has developed over the years
of automatically reappointing board
members as their terms expired. One
such member, who retired recently, thus
served uninterruptedly for half a CEN
fury. 1t is not surprising that the sys-
tenn has been criticized as fostering
apathy and arbitrarinesS on the part Of
boards charged with protecting the pub
lie against incompetency by followers
of certain trades or professions.
The situation came to special notice
Of District officials four years ago when,
through reorganization of the District
government, all such boards were placed
under new Department of Occupations
and Professions. Robert G.. CogSwell,
director of the department, taking note
of complaints that some of the boards
were not properly representative of all
elements of the occupations they were
SuppOSeu W supervise, lOunu CIldC re-
peated reappointmentS had tended to
"stagnate" the boards In a move to
inject new blood into these groups,
therefore, the Commissioners have asked
the Citizens Advisory Council to study
a proposal by Mr.. CogSwell that terms
be limited to three years. with only one
reappointment permissible. The plan,
of course, would require more attention
by the Commissioners to the selection
of board memberS-but that is as it
should be.

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

is a notebook filled with mel
odies.
He found the thing the
other day, and wondered at
the melodies. They were not
bad at all, really, and still are
better than some tunes which
have attained popularity.
The composition Of such
small forms is the very begin
ming of composition. 1t is a
far cry, indeed, from these to
the great symphonies and
operas, and so on.
Jones thought that life is,
after all. a matter Of chance.
Had he met some dynamic
music teacher who knew how
to bring out the best in a
pupil, he might today have
been a musician, instead
of -.
He had felt this same way,
once, when he watched a
travelling symphony board a
bus.
He stood in the doorway Of
a hotel, and a pang of little
envy came over him.
Then his common sense
came to the rescue, and he
was glad to think of all the
one-night stands he had
missed, the poor meals, etc.
Musicians may be poets,
but they are men and wom-
en-, too; they have to live. to
eat, to battle, and to be pes
tered by tax collectors.
x x 4
AS for music bringing true
sweetness and light into life,
there can be no question of
that; music has in it, not
only the power to soothe the
savage breast, but also to
increase the blood pressure
in the best way.
Jones heard recently of
an old lady who loves rock
and-roll music. And why not?
This music has been caSti-
gated, but its invigorating
effect cannot be disputed.
Rock and roll makes a person
feel better.
Even such music is a tran
quillizer. This may sound
strange, but the fact is that
true tranquility comes in
many ways, and the strong
rhythms of Latin American
music, for one, will achieve it.
Or rock and roll.
The tonic effects Of music
have come to the fore in
recent years. Even prescrip-
tons of melodies have been
made for certain diseased
states.
1t is not unreasonable, per-
haps, to believe that some
music in the personal life,
especially self-created music,
plays a real part in making
life better, both physically
and mentally, and may add
to the length of days. and a
youthful state of mind.
