Zoo Director Theodore Reed
said he has been informed in
a note that Mr.. vorys had
trapped q eve and her lamb
somewhere In Alaska. DR.. Reed
said he believes the capture
was made In the remote Brooks
Range. north Of the Yukon
River and well north Of the
Arctic Circle.
sim In Mountains
The rare animals are still up
IN the wild mountains where
Mr.. Vorys trapped them. DR..
Reed said he was told. It might
take Mr.. Vorys weeks before he
and his two partners can bring
the animals out for transporta-
ton to the United States.
II the animals are success
fully transported out Of the
wilds and down from Alaska,
DR.. Reed said their acquisition
would be one Of the geological
finds Of a lifetime.
They would be the stars In
a collection Of North American
mammals the Zoo has long
sought to feature. DR.. Reed also
expects to receive some noun
tain goats from the State Of
Montana and some desert Big
Horns from the Fish and Wild
Life Service as q core for the
North American display.
No details have been received
about how the sheep were
captured or where they are. DR.,
Reed said the legislators son
visited him at the Zoo last
spring and was commissioned
to try to trap some Dalls. Mr.,
Vorys had some previous ex-
perience in the Alaskan wilds,
bringing out wolverines and
lynxes.
He wrote DR.. Reed recently
that he had spotted two bands
of the sheep in the mountains
with a spy-glass from his cabin
and intended setting out for
them shortly. Mr.. Vorys also
wrote that he was considering
use of a helicopter to get into
the remote region where tn.
animals roam. News OF the
success of the mission has just
reached Washington.
Practiced FalcOnry
The young adventurer has
been interested in the outdoors
since childhood when he
trained hawks in falconry
After graduation from Yale
where he received a degree in
anthropology. Mr.. Vorys
worked on newspapers in Texas
and Anchorage. Alaska. For
time he also wrote q syndi-
Gated column on the out-of-
doors.

Sightseeing

The conflict over sightseeing
and charter service focuses d.
rectly on Mr.. Chalk's modus
operandi Of glamor and the
hard SELL"
Capital Transit chartered
buses to parties, but did not
operate limouSines or individual
sightseeing. Mr.. Chalk has en-
tered the latter fields in earnest.
His limousine feet in 1857
crossed $4,000. and charter
and sightseeing buses took in
nearly S4S3 900. Both businesses
are growing.
Since last July the company
has also taken in nearly $780,
900 for a new contract service
for several Federal agencies.
Competitors last month
sharply attacked these new
services at hearings before the
House Select Committee on
Small Business. There were
charges that the Chalk COM
pany had undercut rates, raid
ed competitors personnel and
made UP losses on the side
line" operations out Of pro-
ceeds Of the mass transit busi-
ness. Critics also complained
about the city's allowing Of
mass-transit tax exemptions on
the sideline services.
Competing bus lines said the
tax benefits enabled Transit to
bid low on the government con-
tracts.
j. w. Falk. chief accountant
Of the Public Utilities Commits
sion, testified that the Transit
firm in the year ended last
August 81 lost about $200.00O
on sightseeing and limousine
rental. He said he expected tc
take the position at the forth
coming fare hearings that such
losses should not be saddled
on the regular riders"
Corporation Counsel Chester
H. Gray, the Districts chief
legal officer, has ruled that
Transit is entitled to its pres
lent tax exemptions under the
franchise. But Commissioner
Mclaughlin, reporting Mr.
Gray's view, predicted that
Transit under this interpreta-
ton may drive its sightseeing
competitors out Of business.
Spends for Promotion
1t was brought out at the
hearings that over half of Mr.
Chalk's charter and sightseeing
revenue in his first year went
for advertising and promotion
A check last week showed that
Mr.. Chalk is spending foul
times as much for promotion
as Mr.. Wolfson did four years
ago.
Transit has been baking al
requests to disclose more about
its sightseeing finances. They
contend these cannot properly
be separated from the overall
operation.
I'VE consider the sightseeing
business as part of the glsmor.
izing treatment to entice thu
public to ride with U.S." Mr.
Chalk said in explaining hi:
stand. If the treatment Il
halted by official action. HI
warned. it might mean higher
fares.

Mclaughlin
Won't Yield
For Kurrick

Commissioner Robert Z. Nc
Laughlin has no intention of
stepping aside to give Commits
sioner David B. Karrick a
chance to be president Of the
Board Of Commissioners.
It's not a matter Of prestige
but Of functional duties, Mr..
Mclaughlin said, and said
again last night under ques-
tioning by reporters on Station
WWDC's Report to the People"
broadcast.
He said that Mr.. Karrick had
mentioned to him that he
would like to serve as president
of the board but we've never
gotten to anything definitive"
Mr.. Mclaughlin was ap-
proved Friday by the Senate
District Committee for q second
term as q Commissioner. As
soon as the Senate acts, the
three Commissioners will re-
oreanize-which means elect Q
president of the board.
Tie-Breaking Vote
The third member Of the
board is the Engineer Commits
sioner, Col. A. c. yelling. II
the two civilian Commissioner
each votes for himself, the tie
breaking vote will be Col
Welling's.
In recent disagreements
among the Commissioners, Col
yelling has voted with Com
missioner Karrick on three q
toll issues. He has not indi-
Gated how he will vote on the
question of the presidency.
The question Of whether Mr.
Mclaughlin will give Mr.. Kar-
rick an opportunity to head the
board was posed by a reporter
recalling a prediction made by
mr.. Mclaughlin two years age
when he was elected president
of the board. At that time, Mr.
mclaughlin said Mr.. Karrick''
chance of election as president
might come as early as the next
change in the Engineer Com.
missioner.
The Engineer Commissioner
did change but the presidency
of the board didn't.
To Get Opportunity
81 merely stated" recalled
Mr.. Mclaughlin, that Mr.
Karrick would have a further
opportunity Of being elected
president Of the board. He has
had that opportunity and viii
in the future"
Mr.. Karrick's terms, he said
expires next April 6.
Mr.. Mclaughlin argued thai
he has precedent on his side
He said only one president o.
the Board Of Commissioner
passed it on to another Com
missioner while remaining II
office. That Commissioner, HI
recalled, died in Office.
ITO me-" he said, 1.-THE presi'
dency of the board is not merely
a matter of social prestige. i
is a functional position. Their
are many respects in which
the president Of the boart
conducts specific activities"
He was asked II he woulC
serve his full term II a Judge
ship was offered.
Even then" he replied. "I'C
have a decision to make"

Here There Everywhere

Walter Reuther, president of Ute United Auto Workers, has shelved his 4-day work week pro- posal, and has come out favoring share-the-profits program. This is something of bombshell to the auto industry-a direct blow where X will hurt the most profits.
 \ Reuther still makes the usual demands an immediate general wage increase, modification of sea- 'sonal unemployment benefits; higher pensions, improvement of .ccstroAliving formulas, etc.-but his plan would provide that all profits above 10 per cent on net capital before taxes would be divided in three ways: (1) One half of the profits above 10 per

cent would be retained by the corporation for it's stockholders and executivec: (2) One fourth would go to all hourly-paid and salaried employees other than executives eligible to participate in executives bonus plans and (3) One fourth would go to consumers in the form of rebate to those who have bought the company's products during the course of year.
 These are revolutionary ideas, despite the fact that management has proposed and instituted pro- fit-sharing ideas of its own. Com ing from labor makes it revolu- tio1nary, but will it be palatable to industry? Some modified form of

WATER PROBLEMS

Nine property owners signed a petition seeking the City'S aid in alieviating the flood conditions that arise from the drain off the hills above North Brooklyn. Since we at the Mirror office are direct " concerned with the problem we are naturally in accord with the Asa that something should be done about if.
 We differ only. in one respect to the property owners signing the leetition- They ask that provision te made for drainage before hard surfacing of North Brooklyn. We a.'G' Why wait that long?

The owners of the Mirror building have gone to con- siderable expense recently to pro- vide drainage for the building, and much time has been spent other wise in coping with the situation. Nevertheless, the problem has not teen licked entirely-and never will until adequate provision is made to drain off the mountain side, and diverting the waterflow

constructed by the thousands, and that each would be more difficult to destroy than. a large air base with its planes. He is backed up! in his views. by former Marshall Of the Royal Al rnc~cn. Sir John Slessor. and Gen. Norstad, com mander of NATO.
 All don't agree on this, accord ing to US. News. In some quarters there is a very real fear that the chance of war grows constantly greater, and that the men in the Kremlin will move without warn ing once they have real or seem ing major edge in modern weap- ons. Capt. WD. Puleston, U.S.N. (Ret.), top military analyst, thinks the missile age means the outmoding of the massive retalia- ton policy. He says there is prudent and honorable alternative to c0nceding an enemy the first blow. We should, he believes, make it absolutely clear what areas of the world we will fight to defend and back our stand up to the letter Then, we should make it equally clear that when we see evidence that any nation is pre- pairing A~ attack us we will inn mediately deploy our forces for war. and serve notice that we will attack in self-defense unless the aggressOr nation dismounts it's attack preparations. The time in history is past when this nation can afford to let the enemy deliver the first blow" he says.
 So goes the great debate of the missile age. What comes out of it, here and abroad, may determine whether civilization as we know it is to survive or not. .

to the creek across the road.
 Though we don't subscribe to the Pollyanna philosophy of "sing- ing in the rain", actually we don't mind tiff we did we would move to a rainless belt. But we like it on the outside, where we can dress for it from head to foot. It's when it comes into the building that We object. Also, when it af- fccts our sleep, as it has done on nights when rains of torrental proportions come down, filling not only our lakes, streams and reser- voirs, but also the shop.
 Watching one day City grader travelling along Brooklyn Ave, blade down, swooshing the inch or two deep water that lay on the road, right on to the sidewalk and into the Mirror office has prompt ed these remarks. Any effort we make can't cope with a situation of that kind.
 We might consider stocking our own private lake, known as Mirror Lake, located right in front of the building, with fish. But hanged if we want to stock the inside of the building, too!

therplan will, we think, come out of it when bargaining starts in April.
 Profit-sharing is not new, but is good for a business, and might bring industry and labor more closely together.
 However a warning note must be inserted. According to a letter on the subject of labor and indus try, the Guaranty Trust Company has this to say: "Spokesmen for er's profits. They have never re- prone to quarrel with the employ the Workingman have always been conciled themselves to the fact that those profits are really the workingmans best friend. Ii is the prospect of profits that creates the job, and it is the realization of profits that maintains the job. .''
 This same kind of letter and advise should be sent to the Gov ernment, for the same application could be made as regards income taxes. Profit, under our system, is the motive for expansion, which in turn creates purchasing power all down the line.
 ~ \ * The five cent cigar, and the five cent magazine, as well as the five cent cup of coffee has been gone for long time. Now cow-punchers and smokers of Bull Durham, who have for about a century paid 5 cents for bar of this popular roll-your-own, will now pay 6 cents. Inhale deeply. men-get that extra cents worth out of your bag of smokes.
 Missiles Again
 Should we strike the first blow in missile war or should we gear ourselves for defense in a retalia- tory capacity7
 There are two schools of thought on this. According to recent issue of US. News & World Report, the experts are disagreed on this. Gen. Gallois of the French Air Force, feels that the threat of massive retaliation will be more effective defense policy in the missile age than it is today" His reason is that missile launching sites can be

Each week this column will publish news and rating infor- nation concerning insurance. We will endeavor to explain the functions of insurance from the layman'e viewpoint. Any questions you may have con- cerning the subject will be answered promptly AUTO insurance rates were increased recently. Collision, Comprehensive and Liability rates were increased. effective January 22nd. Liability rates were increased an average oi 15%, Collision 39o and Compre- henSive 25eo. These rate in creases were for the Territory as whole. Several states had rate increases for all classes up to 25%.
 These increases are outcome of the staggering number and cost of the losses involved. Last year, insurance companies paid more on auto losses than during any other period in their hist Ory.
 We in Kodiak can help keep our insurance costs down by observing good driving habits. It's the little things that count, such as signaling for turns. stops, etc., use of chains on snow and ice, lights all in work ing order...
