Cancer Crusade
 Goes Over The Top

JUNEAU - Mrs. William A. Egan, State Chairman for the 1860 Cancer Crusade, reported that the Fund Raising and Cancer Edu- cation Crusade which concludes at midnight tonight, is expected to be the most successful ever conducted in the State of Alaska.
 Many communities raised more money than ever before for this great purpose, and more import antly reached more people with the life saving facts about cancer.
 Mrs. Egan went on to say that while all communities of Alaska have done a remarkable job this year, special mention should be made of the two communities which conducted a cancer cru sade for the first time and had outstanding results - they are SkagWay with Mrs. Hans Soldin as chairman who turned in over $400, and Kotzebue with Mrs David Johnson as chairman who turned in over $500 to the Alaska Division in Juneau.
 The State Crusade has already counted over S53,000 and is ex- pected to exceed $57 ,000 when the final report is made.

 Policemen carried her inside the airport building, where she quick ly recovered. She walked to the press room to talk with newsmen IS minutes later.
 Eve done all I can do. I think our government should be able to do something. I'm glad to be home. I really don't know what else to say" she told newsmen.

Two Airmen Stimulating Flight To The Moon

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, 1.-Two Air Force pilots, in the midst of a simulated trip to the moon, broke the record for time spent in a make-believe space ship.
 Capt. William Habluetzel, 36, and It. John Hargreaves eclipsed the old record of 13 days, 20 hours and 40 minutes set last February by Sgt. Hobard Craft and Vim. Henderson.
 There was little fanfare with the record breaking and observ- CTS at the School of Aviation Medicine said the pair took no notice of their achievement.
 The men were sealed in the tank Aug. 15, They plan to stay inside their "space-ship" at least IF days, which is the length of time believed necessary for a flight to the moon and back using equipment and fuel expected to be available in the near future.

exactly who 1 am and what l am doing out here on the coast. I have been a school teacher since 1853 and an officer in the End Eskimo Scout Battalion. Back in 1858 I gave some assistance to a native company that was begin ming competition against one of the big monopolistic companies of this area. This past spring l was told by the BIA, to either stop mixing in commercial ventures or resign, so I resigned. I am build ing a log house in the village of KWiguk and starting a local air. craft charter business in partner ship with a full native partner. With five children and no pre- sent income, it is obvious why 1 wasn't able to campaign and l would have accepted the results of the last election if so many people hadn't been able to vote.
 I know my chances are slim, but there is still a chance, and if some people will wake up and realize that these people are sin cerely interested in their govern ment and highly resent being sold short on their votes, then a good purpose will be served.

Letter To The Editor
KWiguk, Alaska August 25, 1860

August 25, 1860
 First I would like to thank you for that small piece you put in the paper when l visited Nome the day before election. I did en- joy meeting many people at Nome and l find it very inter esting place.
 I have not heard the final of ficial election results. The last word I had was the unofficial report published in the Nugget on Aug. Is. It showed that I was behind MT. Bronson by 157 votes. l presume that very few addi- tional votes will be added to those totals. From all appearances it would seem that the people have made their choice for the Repub- lican and Democratic candidates for the various offices. I take eX- ception to this when it comes to the office of state senator.
 More than 300 voters were de- nied the right to vote. That fig ure may be higher, for I am only speaking of the lower Yukon River. Here we have total of nine villages that were unable to cast a single vote. Included in these nine villages are three villages where I have spent the better part of the last 10 years. Now these villages are not just small villages. Two of them are over 400 in population. They rep resent a native population of over l 400 people.
 In the past, ballots have been sent out to the Postmasters in these villages, and they have passed them out to qualified vot- CTS and then sent them in with their postal stamp on the back. They naturally expected the same thing to happen again, since they received no contrary instructions. On election day everyone was calling for ballots and there were none.
 More than 50 people begged and borrowed gasoline and made the six-mile trip from Kwiguk to Alakanuk just to vote. Alakanuk didn't even have enough ballots for their own village Ga common complaint so they numbered and used the sample ballots. Evident ly these votes were thrown out, for I see by the results, there is total of about 40 votes counted at Alakanuk.
 Is this a case of bureaucratic bungling or were these people purposely denied their privilege of voting? To me it seems there is a complete lack of concern for the people out in these small viii lageS, and that was the whole req son I was running in the first place. Sol am still running for write in vote I don't know whether I can muster the finan- cial means to make trip all the way north, but, one way or an other, l am going to make mystelf heard. I'll let the people decide if this was a valid election.
 Unfortunately in the last cleo ton, I did not have the time nor the means to campaign as I wanted to. You may wonder just

a months visit with her chill
dren, Mr.. and Mrs. Eddie Rob-

Cotton. We found Chicago
much changed in many ways
instead of the many old
fire-trap buildings, we drove
out to see many of the citi-
zens living in attractive one
family homes, surrounded by
lovely lawns not too diff
ferent from the Negro-owned
homes to be found in every
section of our city. We
found that huge, ultra-mod-
ern apartment buildings had
replaced many of the dirty.
rat-infested buildings, but we
also found that these apart
ments had been placed out of
the rent range of many of the
families who had once lived
in those same neighborhoods.
We found however, that with
few exceptions, everybody we
met in the city thought we
were just plain out of our
mind when we said, we inten-
ded to live in Jackson the rest
of our life.

back home after attending the
funeral services held in Chi
cago, Ill. the city that
had been her home for more
than a half century the
city that this aunt so dearly
loved. And again, as death
so soon steps in to take away
one whom we loved dearly, we
feel that this sorrow is more
than we can bear i. F.. but again
we are also reminded Of the
beautiful heritage that is ours
by having been associated with
this dear one and we dry our
tears. To us, this aunt was
the most beautiful example of
a we'll ordered a well reg
life. a most beauti-
full example of what clean,
wholesome, comfortable living
can do for one never, we
believe, during her near 06
years of age, did anyone see
this aunt, when she was not
immaculate and we'll groomed
from the top of her head to
the tip Of her toes. Great
pride in her personal appear
ance at all times was a relig-
ion with Della King Campbell.
This aunt, also leaves to us
heritage of what can be accom-
plished by hard work, thrift,
safe and sound investments.
She will be greatly missed by
many who for years have seen
her seated, along with a youn-
ger sister, on the porch or in
the yard of her well appointed
home on South Michigan.
