UL HEAD WARNS
AGAINST SNOB
APPEAL IN WORK

STLOUIS Making the image
of an agency on "snob appeal
and exclusiveness at policy max
ing level" is a fatal threat to
the social work profession un-
less recognized and erased was
the opinion of Whitney M. Young,
Jr.. of New York, executive di-
rector of the National Urban
League, at workshop session
of the 10th annual conference of
the Council On Social Work Ed
ucation.
"Such attitudes, though not too
frequent make the agency nothing
more than a private club" he
further said.
Mr.. Young urged those engaged
in social service work to now
make real a longtime theoretical
concept = that of working with
rather than for people,"

 Bartlett noted that Kodiak fish ermen pointed out that the Oce- anic's gear had been marked in ac- cordance with suggestions made recently by a State Department representative.

Democrats Sen. Ernest Gruen- ing, Gov. Bill Egan and US. Rep resentative Ralph Rivers were re- elected Tuesday, as Alaskan voters turned down by a 5000 plus mar gin an initiative to move the cap- ital but okeyed $17,000,000 in bonds, including $2,2OO,OOO for a vocational school in the Kodiak Aleutian district.
 Rep. Gil Jarvela CD was re- elected by defeating Chuck Powell by 71O to 230 margin, while Nick Begich, also a Democrat, appar- ently won the senator-a atlarge seat by narrow margin over Bob Stra- ton, Jr.
 Closest race on the state level was the governorship with 28O precincts reporting, Gov. Egan had 26,045 votes to Mike Stepovichs s 24,462. Sen Gruening won by about an 5000 margin, while Rep. Riv- er's margin was slightly under A. 900.

Strange that the metropolitan dailies in both Anchorage and Fairbanks looked upon the Uni versity of Alaska Construction bonds amounting to S5,950,O00 and the capital move as great bOOns to the state, while the $2,- 100000 for a vocational school along the Kodiak-Aleutian chain was "pOrk.barreT" measure not warranting support of the popu- lace.
 Just before or immediately after an election is a good time to find out who your friends are. Have you tried to cross Benson between Kraft's and Naughton's in the evening as all the Base employees are returning to town. If you have you know you are in for a Is to 20 minute wait.
 It's still our contention that a stop sign should be erected there to slow down the traffic coming down the hill, or perhaps we can do as is done in many places-wait until someone is killed there.
 And now we hear about the Kodiak housewife who sum- moned a TV serviceman to fix the set.

By Karl Armstrong

AlaSka'S Senior US. Senator E. L. Bob" Bartlett sent an urgent wire to the Department of State shortly after his arrival in Kodiak yesterday morning advising that a really dangerous situation is in the making" here and further stated actually I am very fearful what may occur should there be combinations" of Russian traWlers destroying American crab fishing gear.
 At about 10 am. yesterday morn ing the Kodiak Mirror received a ship-to-shore radiophone call from Captain Albert "Coogan" Peter son of the boat Oceanic advising that he had observed a large Rus sian stern tra VI CT dragging through the area in which he had his 30 pots out. The call was re- layed by Skipper Vic Hansen of the factoryship Mercator in Lazy Bay. At that time Skipper Peter. son was unable to determine the full extent of the damage done by the Russian trawling but estimated that at least half, or 15 pots, were lost.
 They went right through my pots, which are radar marked ac- cording to the advice of the US. State Department, pulled up their trawl and unloaded it into their hold, and proceeded to then put their traWl back into the water and trawl back through the pot area again." Skipper Peterson told the Mirror.
 The Oceanic is owned by Lloyd Cannon, president of the United Fishermen'S Marketing AsSocia- ton.
 The incident took place approx imately seven miles south of Sit kinak Island. Only one Russian ship was seen and it is believed to be the first time there have been actual eyewitnesSes to to such gear destruction by Russian traWlers.
 At a hearing of the Merchant
