Religion And World Unrest

He holds to the belief a strong United Nations could resolve in ternatiOnal conflicts without war. While nationalistic feeling is part of the difficulty, the chief obstacle to the creation of strong world government is international a. pathy." he states.
 There is no doubt in the mind of this writer that international apathy is the big factor. Apathy is the destroyer of anything good, for it breeds dullness and in-, sensibility. We do not cotton to an International police force, particu- larly, but we do believe in an organization such as the United Nations, where representatives of government can meet to discuss problems of an international nature.
 To condemn religion as having failed to influence leaders and individuals, we believe, is wrong. Apathy has entered the picture here, certainly, but in spite of it, religion continues still to exert its influence. Our concern, in this present crisis, is the substituting of another theology for that of religion. That theology, coupled with technological advancements, is bringing war closer to us each day.
 Is that reason for scrapping religious beliefs, aping our protagonist,. and concentrating on improved technology? We must assuredly, keep abreast in the latter. But there is still the need to temper our judgment. Religion plays its part there.

or was it something breWed in the basement that caused this costly dream? Tn the first place, such service would have to be State subsidy, it being out of this world to expect few rubberneckS to make 1t paying deal
 I have lived on this Island since 1889 and have yet to hear of any one having the fare who could not leave here. You give the impress sion that with ferry service one would need little or no money. Who would foot the bills for the service the State?
 Our representatives and you could think of any number of pay ing projects. Our fisheries are still a big deal, in spite of poor packs in the last few years. We will be taking control of them in a year if we concentrate on the problems that go along with the responsibility.
 If the State wants to go into the boat business, why not start with a fisheries research vessel? It would be something constructive, something that would help us now.
 When such time comes that the Rubberneck trade warrants a ferry service, and it will be a pay ing deal, I think private enter prise will be able and willing to furnish such service.
 Let's quit smoking that pipe and get down to the business of running this State on a paying basis now, taking care of the first things first and leaving the others to a time when we can afford to SubSidize.
 Sincerely,
 Al. Tiny" Cichoski

FERRY FROM FARMLAND

Elsewhere in this issue, my friend Tiny" Cicoski took me to task for exploring the, idea of a ferry service to the mainland. He presented some constructive ideas, which in his opinion should be done first by the new state, rather than the ferry. That's fine. We like opinions, and as we said, We will be glad to publish them, whether

Can religious influence inspire enough of demand for a peace ful solution to international con flict, or has religious influence declined to the point that it is capable only of formulating our final prayerS?"
 This question was posed by RE. Needham, in the Jan. 16 issue of the Polar Star, the official publi- cation of the University of Alaska st4dent association. Stating that the influence of religion has de cI,ned throughout the world in the 2Gft century, the author voiced a1a opinion that t,.is decline ''has t,e,n concur ent with the growth of our SechRology and the rise of rigorous scientific investigation" He goes on to say: I'The occurrence df two world wars has demonstrat- ed che apparent inability of reli- zion to cope with the tremendous problems of an increasingly com plex civilization" r
 The author pleads for the recognition of "a new technology"
 
 that is capable of almost instan- tareous destruction of our society. Two courses are open to us-the discovery of a solution to stop it, or Che other alternatiye-so pray that the end of our lives may be mercifully quick.
 Seeking a more positive alter native, the author asks if this should take the form of bigger and better missiles. He doesn't think this will be an effective deterrent. Another alternative cit ed is World Government backed ny an International Police Force.

"A Striker
 "Kodiak has gone under ground!"
 This isn't the carpenters. or the fishermens union, or anything like that. Rather its the Union of the Alley Cats! Nor is there anything subversive about it. Rather it's adversive.
 Instead of bombs being thrown, it's big round plastic balls. Men and women hurl them with all their might at ten maple pins. Like rifle shot, there is sharp, Staccato report at the impact of ball and pins. Well done," comes from adversary and comrade alike as all the pins fall.
 You've guessed it-bowling has come to Kodiak. You go down a few steps, and a new world opens up before you-Six beautiful alleys, new and shiny with their ten pins, like so many well-drilled soldiers, standing in formation, at the other end.
 The players, one by one, alert
  and poised, send the ball on its course-"A strike!" or maybe it's "A spare" Whatever it is, it's the total score that counts.
 Ladies and men get that wild look in their eyes, as they start the ball on its way. Many of them offer rusty swing, from being away from the game these many years-but as time goes on, no doubt their games will improve, and the champ of Kodiak, in the mems and also in the w6niens divi- sion, will be crowned.
 CHAMPS TO DEFEND
 The first State Bowling Tourna- ment will take place in Anchorage next month. The mainland bowlers have been at it for years, however, but Kodiak may not be able to enter a contestant this year.
 In the women's division, Barbara Cells will be in there defending her title as reigning Alaska Wo- mems Match Game champion, against Jan Pentecost, and about 50 other contestants. Qualifying rounds will start Feb. 21 at pm. The finals will start at 1 pm. Feb. 2.

we agree with them or not. He stated, though, that I inferred in the editorial, it would cost little or nothing to go by ferry. Read that editorial again, Tiny"
 Tiny" also takes me to task for indulging in a little "pipe dream ing" Since when has pipe dream ing gone out of fashion? For it is out of dreams that realities are born. Some of the finest inven- tionS we have, the modern, enjoy able and practical items of every day use were at one time just a dream. So with any project.
 Two rumors that have been mak- ing the rounds this week proved false. One concerned Gov. Egan, whose death was reported, and the other concerned the death of Capt. Thye, former co of the Coast Guard Detachment here.
 As Mark Twain once said: "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated"

 Here's little game I defy you to play in Kodiak (unless you live in one of the Aleutian homes). Write down your house number (stumped?)
 If you get past that one: Double it
 Add five
 Multiply by fifty Add your age (Don't cheat) Add 365
 Subtract 615
 Answer: In the result you will find that your house number is to the left and your age to the right.

YOUR
MONEYS WORTH
CITY Owned by Outsiders
~ SYLVIA PORTER

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - II you
worked for a manufacturing
firm in Louisville today. the
odds are better than six to one
that you'd be en- employee Of a
plant owned by outsiders -
controlled by interests far re-
moved from your hometown.
More than 80 per cent Of the
manufacturing jobs in this
187-year-old Kentucky city are
in absentee-owned corpora
lions. Decisions Of crucial i'm
portance to the workers. their
families, the entire community
are not made by Louisville
residents; often they're made
by executives. efficiency experts
or financiers who rarely visit
the city.
If you worked for a big retail
store in Louisville, the odds are
eight to one that you'd be
working for a branch, a coast
forecast chain. OF Louisville's
seven biggest stores only one is
home owned and that one is
fifth in size.
In Louisville, absentee owner
ship of industrial plants. stores,
major service organizations is
no longer a threat arising from
the great merger trend Of this
decade.
Trend Is Reality
Here, the trend has become a
reality. And the implications go
far beyond the obvious-the in
clination Of imported" mana
gers to disregard local charities,
to give only minimum support
to city groups.
In Louisville, absentee con-
troll is striking at the very in
dustrial and financial heart Of
the city itself. Here is a tale
which cities the Nation over
will ignore at their own peril.
The list of Louisville COM
panies sold to or absorbed by
Nationwide concerns since
World War II covers dozens of
once famous names. And I'm
not including new factories
which American corporations
Rave established here-such as
General Electric's creation on
Louisville's outskirts Of Appli-
ance Park, the worlds largest
home appliance factory. Nor
am ! touching on the hundreds
OF small distilleries which have
been gobbled up by the liquor
giants. Omitting these. consider
that in the past 10 years:
Mengel Furniture has be-
come Kroehler and Mengel Box
