City To Share
 Courtroom Costs

Faced with the possibility of the discontinuance of the availability of the Courtroom in the Donnelley Building, the City Council voted the expenditure of $100 a month towards its rental.
 In letter to the City, David l.. Luce of the Court System of Alaska pointed out that the State Court System would be unable to stand rental costs of $14,400 a year as at present. He proposed that other agencies, both state and municipal, as well as organizations desiring to use it, share in the costs. Heat, light and janitor service is in cluded in the rental.
 By this arrangement, the City will be able to hold its court cases there, as well as special council meetings, etc.

Mirrored Reflections
By SIG DECREE

This question was asked: Have you noticed the profusion of U. s. postage stamps which have been issued recently in a wide variety of designs and colors? It's won der that the Post Office workers can keep track of them-and from all indications, they're having trouble. Recently, a youngster mailed his entry away to contest. The stamps he used were of the trading variety rather than the called-for postage kind. Uncle Sam's boys cancelled the stamps and delivered the letter without question.

Civil Defense loomed as major necessity in a discussion at the Chamber of Commerce meeting Thursday noon at the Town Club.
 Art Brooks, Civil Defense direc- tor in this area, stated in remarks made before the group that i've need to depend on ourselves" in the event of an atomic attack. He pointed out that buildings set aside for defense in the Abercombie area will serve the purpose, even though they may be crowded. We are faced now with the problem of breaking and entering, and the re- moval of items stored there, which has happened on several occas- ions" He stated he has sought to have more frequent patrol of the area, and called upon all present to drive through the area in an eff fort to apprehend those breaking in.
 Brooks stated that the State Civil Defense director has promised 1000 cases of rations to be shipped to this area, but Brooks recom- mended all individuals provide themselves with rations to last two weeks.

Dear old lady at The Adver-
tiser"
Keep up the fight. Your ethi-
cal foe has been sitting on his
brains SO long they are numb.
Many men resent the fact that
we women have brains and the
opportunity to use them. They
still live in an era in which they
believe "the moon shines ONLY
the cowshed, Ka-Ka-
Katie"
I find your editorials factual
and unbiased. This is as it
should be and I can think of
no higher praise for an editor
who seems to have the interest
of her community at heart.
The necessity of continued
employment here prevents my
signature on this but you have
admiration for running your
business as YOU think best.
Sincerely,
A GNWD subscriber
