THE GREAT QUESTION

The question of whether the worlds as
pirations will be served by democratic free
dom or the totalitarian state can only be
resolved by the use of every national re-
source of brains and effort and the fullest
cooperation between every segment of our
society = including, above all, cooperation
between government and business.
Businessmen are only too often overly
antagOniStic to government and equally,
those in government have found it politi
cally useful to harass business. Our pri
mary problems are now global in scope.
They are altogether too vast for government
or business corporations to resolve alone.
To meet the demands for the cold war,
clearly working partnership between bus
mess and labor and government is needed.
There will always be differences of pol
icy and opinion between these three groups.
But they can and must be arbitrated with
out imperiling the national interest - and
even the national survival-in this time of
an ominous hardening of the cold war
The question is how to do what is neces
sary in the area of public policy and at the
same time maintain freedom of enterprise
and decision in private business. This is a
goal that must be given support by all of
us if we are to remain free nation.
POOR FISH,
There are still few people in the Uni
ted States who can't understand many of
the stock political arguments for increased
government spending for federal power
plants. The plea is always advanced by pub
lie power advocates that such construction
is necessary to strengthen the national de-
fense or prevent some future power short
age In the particular region affected. But
the same proponents of expanded govern
ment-owned, tax-eXempt power oppose eff
forts of taXpaying investor-owned, publicly
regulated power companies to increase pro-
duction in the same area.
To justify tax-exemption for government
competition with private enterprise, plus
other special advantages denied all other
business and industry, "cut-rates" are the
bait used to attract the public to the social
istic lure. Thus is the general public hooked
to pay additional taxes to make up for those
which privileged users of "cheap" federal
power escape. Of course if the whole pow
er industry was socialized the rates would
have to be increased to make up for lost
taxes of over 81 billion dollars a year now
paid by investor-owned power company GUS
toners in taxes levied against the compan-
les by city, county, state and federal govern
ments.
We are spending billions for defense
against communism, which is the ultimate
in socialism, while we go right ahead under
mining our free enterprise, capitalist sys-
tenn. Russia must be laughing up her sleeve
as we lay the ground work for her political
philosophy.

BABSON PARK, Mass. October
13-Many people are puzzled when
they see unemployment riding
along at high TO of the labor
force while employment keeps
reaching one new peak after an
other. They see in this situation
ar indication that there is really
the germ of depression under
lying the present recovery boom
in business. The reasons for high
unemployment in a time of top
menacing They are due to the
natural population expansion and
other related factors.
WHY UNEMPLOYMENT
STAYS HIGH
For one thing, some producers
and retailers are pricing them
selves out of business. Many in
vestors are of the opinion that la
Dor is chiefly to blame here. But
actually, each group in the econ
omy wants more and tries to take
in additional money by raising
prices or wages. The result: Con
sumers buy fewer goods. mer-
chants lay off clerks; manufac-
turers fire production workers. 1t
is a vicious circle. with all groups
helping to keep the spiral going.
Taxes. too, can cause unemploy-
ment in a roundabout way. The
levies for defense, social security,
old-age pensions. foreign aid farm
subsidies. ard road building are
never-endingly heavy. Such taxes
make many employers so angry
they take it out on labor by re-
ducing staffs.
Foreign imports are another is

An order appearing in the Fed eral Register revoking Public Land Order No. 78l is looked upon as a threat to the future development of the municipal airstrip.
 The order turns back the land now occupied by ACS adjacent to the airstrip to the ELM A portion of the land Is needed for airstrip use, and in the event of further ex- tensions involving Federal funds the property in question is needed.
 That portion will then be turned back for ACS use City Manager Poland is protesting the transfer.

 To the Fishing Industry-fish- ermen and processors. The Alaska Sportsmen's Council and Member Clubs. and to the general public Dear Friends:
 Upon my retirement as Commis- sioner of the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, wish to express deep appreciation for your coopera- tion and good will during my 12 years in the service of Alaska
 During this period. Fish and Game Department has been devel- oped from an idea on few scraps of paper to a well functioning or ganization of 175 carefully chosen, well-trained, dedicated employees. These now administer the great fish and game resources of Alaska in protection. biological research and management
 Setting up a department to uti- lize and harvest the vast wealth of Alaska's fish and game resources on a sustained yield basis has been my primary concern and endeavor since 1949.
 Several factors such as far sighted legislative support contrib uted greatly 10 the realization of these endeavors.
 However, without your active in tereSt that manifested itself gen. er0usly through the years in both moral and material support I know that the aims for the Depart men1 could not have been fully realized.

 With deepest gratitude I wish to thank each one of you for sharing in the building of vial Depart menf h OFT great new State

 It has been said that the U- s. cannot compete with low-xage countries. No less an authority than the Chase Manhattan Bank said in a report: Many products can be pro duced cheaper in the L. s. despite much higher wage rates
 Wages are on the increase in Japan Reliable statistics reveal that from 1851 10 1859, real wages in Japan rose fl percent, compared to q percent in the U. S What might be surprising 10 the average American is the range of fringe benefits received by Japanese workers. year-end and summer bonuses amounting to 2 or 3 months pay; family allowance; liv- ing-cost allowance: length of serv- ice allowance: low-cost housing pro- yided by employers: meals at ex- remely low prices; skill and job status premiums; and a host of others
 The Japanese worker is not so bad off when you consider that the purchasing power of the Japan csc yen for commodities that he uses in his daily life is considerably greater than its U. S dollar equiva- lent. It has been estimated that vegetables and fruits costing s1 in the U. S. would cost 30 cents in Japan: s1 worth of fish would cost 5 cents: Of clothing. 50 cents; of grain, 57 cents. etc.

What Ollie and Kook will be able to do in

Kukla Fran and Ollie went off because
sponsors lost interest. Then, curiously, they re-
