VOTING LEAVE - The
White House has announced
that President Kennedy is con-
tinuing the Eisenhower admin
stations policy regarding the
giving of time off to Federal
employees to vote or to register
to vote.
Under this policy, where the
polls are not open at least three
hours either before or after an
employees regular hours of work,
he may be granted an amount
of excused leave tno charge to
annual leave) which will per-
nit him to report for work
three hours after the polls open
or leave work three hours be-
fore the polls close, whichever
requires less amount of time
off.
If an employees voting place
is beyond normal committing
distance and vote by absentee
ballot is not permitted, the en-

time off in order to be able to

Mr.. Castro in a new "decla-

Cuba. He blamed them for the

Mr.. Castro's 2 hour and 40

In my travels about Alaska I have heard many complaints about the construction trades labor unions in our great state. There is hiring hall discrlmina- ton affecting union members. Non-union members cannot even get into the unions regardless of experience, ability or qualifica- tions. The latest union-contractor agreement prevents even union member from seeking his own .job, he must wait his turn on the union hiring list. This de- stroys incentive for there is no advantage in having initiative or ability in trying to do a better job for each man is reduced to job equality with the poorest worker of the union
 Right to work means simply that no man is required to be a member of a union 10 obtain a job or keep a job. Right to work laws are in effect in 20 states and in 19 of these states the number of union members has increased faster than the na- tional average of other states and wage rates have increased faster and have gone higher.
 The labor union movement was started to protect the work ing man from the tyrants of in dustry; now the working man must be protected from the ty- rants within the unions. A right to work law is one step in this direction.
 Alaska must have a right to work law to preserve those pre- cious freedoms of which we are all so justly proud and which have made our nation great.

kenncdy's Biz Bills Are In for Tough Shedding.
By Raymond Crowley


 WASHINGTON lR-Tlhe thump- ing House vote for his trade ex- pansion bill came like a tonic for President Kennedy, who had begun to tallSlike a frustrated man
 It's no sign, however, the other big, controversial measures on the Kennedy program will get through. The reciprocal trade policy, begun in 1884, has had considerable sup port ln. both parties for years. President Eisenhower, for instance, was for lowering of trade barriers.
 On other issues - his defeated farm bill for example - Kennedy has been learning the hard way the tfouth of political maxim.
 A Presidential candidates ability to promise is usually far greater than his ability to perform. Espe- cially if he promises big innova- tions
 In the 1860 campaign. Kennedy pledged bold and novel programs which. he argued were needed to get this country going again.
 Last week he acknowledged, at a news conference, that he lacks a dependable working majority in Congress to get the job done This despite the fact that the Demo- crats have big majorities in both chambers = 64 to 35 in the Senate and 263 to 174 in the House
 Kennedy said it was hard to get any big controversial bill through because so many Demo- crats vote with the Republicans. Butthls has been going on for years.
 In fact, the last President who could make sweeping promises of bold innovations, With ny.real hope of being able to perform was Franklin D. Roosevelt in the 1882 campaign.
 When he got elected, Congress ate out of his hand for a while passing bill after bill containing vast social and economic innova- tions. But that was because the country had been going through ar economic cataclysm - the great depression. The mood of Congress and the country, was anything but conservative.
 But the New Deal ran out of steam after while. A turning point might be said to have come in 1887. That year Roosevelt, angered because the Supreme Court knocked down MIRA and some of his other measures, pro- posed bill which would have en- abled him to enlarge and thereby pack the court The bill was beat en.
 Since the mood of Congress has largely been conservative. There have been no great innovations in domestic policy, barring of course the emergency measures of World War H.
 If the Democratic party were a single unity, with a common view point, Kennedy could count on a dependable majority But the party has seldom been this. It's like a big tent, sheltering liberals and conservatives. To degree. this also can be said of the Republican party
 In Congress the conservatives Republican and Democratic-are the dominating force, and there's no sign on the horizon that this situation is likely to change any time soon.

Mrs. John Glenn, Sr.,
Ohio Mother of Year

COLUMBUS. Ohio, Mar.
16 (AP).-The silver-haired,
quiet-smiling woman who has
seen almost a month of hon
ors heaped upon her son,
drew the spotlight herself to-
day.
Mrs. John H. Glenn, ST., of
New Concord, mother of As
tronaut 1t. Col. John H.
Glenn. was named Ohio
mother of 1862 and a can
didate for American Mother
of the Year.
Mrs. Glenn will be hon.
ored officially at a luncheon
Saturday, April IA, at the
Athletic Club of Columbus,
presented by the Ohio Com
mittee of the American
Mothers Committee, Inc.
The selection of the Ma
tional Mother of the Year
will be made the week of.
May 7 in New York.
The 65 year old Mrs.
Glenn was born in Lore City,
Ohio. The family later moved
to Cambridge, where she at
tended high school and then
went on to take a teacher
training course at Muskingum
College in New Concord.
After teaching for several
years, she and John Herschel
Glenn were married in May,
1918, at Camp Sheridan, Ala,
just before Mr.. Glenn left for
duty in Europe.
The Glenns first son died
at birth. The astronaut was
their second son. With the
death at birth of a daughter
in 1926, the Glenns adopted
a month-old baby girl, Dor
othy Jean.
In 1855, Mrs. Glenn was in
jured critically in an auto
mobile accident while en-
route to visit her son. After
months in casts and two
years on crutches, she re-
sumed normal activities. In
1858 she fell and fractured
her left hip. Her doctor
attributes her recovery from
both accidents to the will
of a remarkable woman"
Mrs. Glenn is a member
Of Westminster Presbyterian
Church and has been active
in the women's missionary
work. She is also a member

The word, cancer, naturally
strikes fear to the heart of
anyone. Generally, it is
thought that the cancer vic
tim is a doomed individual.
This is too bad for several
reasons. In the first place,
this is not true. Also, the
terrible dread of the disease
causes some to delay in
checking in with physician
when suspicious symptoms
occur. Then, too, there has
been some indication that
emotional stress may speed
the spread of cancer, or con-
tribute to its re-occurrence.
Actually, many folks do
not realize how many people
have been cured of cancer.
Today in the United States
alone, there are more than
one million people who have
been cured.
While there have been no
real breakthroughs and no
miracle drugs, there has been
