W alsh Looks To Siberia Flights

PearSe M. Walsh, a Nome Sena- tor and veteran airline employs. stated Tn Juneau that Wien-Alaska Alrlincs, of which he is Nome sta ton manager, is looking forward to the day we can serve Siberia" The statement came as a result of the linking up of Juneau and WhltehorSe with a teletype and push telephone communications network the airline maintains throughout Northwestern and Arc tic Alaska.
 Walsh, in Juneau for liaison work on the Wien take-over from Pan American, has been extremely cri- tlcal In the past of the lack of Air Defense in Alaska. This past year he telephoned Secretary of De- fense McNamara direct as a result of Russian aircraft overflying Alas ka. But Walsh now states, "I think that the thaW in Russian American relations is setting in, especially with the worsening of Chinese-Russian relations"
 According to the Nome Demo- crat, son of a pioneer Alaskan family, i've now land at Gam bell, on the northeastern tip of St. Lawrence Island, and that is only 25 miles from Siberia" A lessen ing of tensions plus the sale of American wheat to the Soviet Union indicates that there may be a general opening of trade be- tween Ourselves and the Rus sians," according to Walsh. If this is the case, i've stand ready to serve as a carrier through the back door to the Soviet Union and we happen to have the ex- perience for the job," Walsh noted.
 Wien Alaska was established in 1924 and serves both the Northwest and Arctic coasts. Their communi- cations network, a brainchild of Ed Parsons, not only is the ''muk- lux telegraph" for most of Alaska's Eskimo communities. but also is, through their Barrow station, the "eyes' of transpolar flights by in tercontinental airlines. Parsons is the assistant to the General Man ager of the airline.
 Wien Alaska hopes to make their take-over of the Juneau-W White hOrse-Fairbanks run later this week, but have yet to make a defi- nite announcement due to formal lack of approval on the part of the Canadian government.

KORTH STRIKES BACK
 WASHINGTON R-Fred

who is resigning as Navy secre- tary, has challenged Secretary Me Namara's decision to install con- ventional rather than nuclear power in a new aircraft carrier.
 North told the Congressional Atomic Energy Committee that the decision by McNamara portends conventional engines in ships to come.
 He said the failure to build more nuclear vessels would be tragic for surface striking forces in the next decade and beyond.

IDENTIFY MISSING MEN

WASHINGTON LR - The Army has identified two US. officers and an enlisted man as missing in South Viet Nam.
 Apparently they are the three Americans reported as believed captured in a fight between Viet Name government forces and Com munist guerrillas yesterday, 40 miles southwest of Saigon.
 The Americans are: Capt. Hu- bert Versage of Baltimore; 1st It. James Rowe of McAllen Tex: and Sgt. Daniel Pitzer of Spring Lake, NC.
 Researchers have found that most people don't mind waiting 30 seconds for an elevator, but as the interval approaches a minute they begin to fuss and fume.

Workers
Let us take the case of a Fill
Pine cannery worker, who mar
ried an American. He was able
to send two of her daughters
through a university, where one
was magma cum laude, and the
other, suma cum laude. Had he
gone back to the Philippines as
a laborer, he would not have
been able to have put his chill
dren through college. Here, his
contribution to Filipino prestige
is much greater than many Fill
pinos at home, who stayed and
died in the town where their
parents and grandparents had
lived and died.
Since Roosevelt's New Deal,
the workers have won a great
deal of rights, power, and dig
nifty, as we'll as independence,
through unionization. For a ho-
tel manager to kick and slap a
bell hop with impunity within
sight of the other employees is a
thing of the past.
1t should be pointed out that
there are many Filipino workers
here, who are able to send more
money home than if they stayed
in the Philippines all of their
lives. The remittances have
helped the country.
For example, A was employed
as a caricaturist by the Hearst
papers and later as an artist by
Century Fox Studios. He was
making $500 a day during the
depression, when most Filipinos
were making less thain $500 a
week. Later, he moved to a res

GONE PEOPLE should never give parties.
- Numbered in this group are those eager
beaver, unyielding perfect hosts and hostesses
whose evenings "At Home" tick off like the Ten
Commandments and offer the same devil
may-eare spirit Of fun
For this Push-Hard-tO-P Perfection cult of
party-givers, the First Commandment is: Thou
shalt be most carefully invited The guest list is
for them an agony of good and evil, pitting the
delightfuls against the billiards, and the de-
sirables against the indebted-to's. Invitations
are finally addressed on the basis of balance,
comfort and control and the resulting assem-
bly, is bland and boring.
The Second Commandment: Thou shalt
come in Arriving guests are greeted on the
front porch, in the yard, or in extreme cases
at the foot Of the driveway, with the host trOt-
ting alongside the car pelting its occupants
with words Of extreme welcome.
"Hiya, Larry Good to see yal Man, are we
glad you people could come. You look great,
Suzy, Just great Come on In, the old lady is
dying to see yal"
shall we park the car or bring it in with
usY"
"You are a character, Larry, q character!
Just run the little buggy up here In the azaiea
bed and let's get partying!"
Storm warnings have been hoisted, and
you would be wise to fake coronary and pay
ambulance expenses home. Once in the
clutches Of the old lady. you've had 1t. You are
herded to the cloakrOom, stripped of over
clothing. and pumped into the playrOom like a
syringeful Of JOY.
The other guests have begun to sense the
fact that their fun is not measuring up to the
efforts Of the host and hostess to provide for it.
They are choosing chairs and waiting uneasily
for something to get them going. Mouths close
like traps, and all heads turn to each new ar
rival, hopefully expectantly.
The Third Commandment: Thou shalt be

sumption an invitation to the vOmitorium The
guest who politely refuses glass finds it filled
anyway, and he must drink it or be subjected
to lecture on the vintage, bouquet, and utter
suitability Of that wine to that dinner. The i'm
plicatiOn being, Of course, that his refusal is
based on wilful ignorance Of the finer things
in life
Dinner includes gourmet dishes" that
defy description, but they will be described
at length and with subtle reference to the
time and effort consumed in preparing them.
The meal is topped off with dessert resemb-
ling something left behind by sick spaniel,
and then Thou shalt be seTUed an qtteT-dinner
hqueuT.
The Ninth Commandment: Thou shalt par
ticipGte In fun and games Guests who have not
devised q reasonable excuse for leaving the
party after hqueurs are marched back to the
pIayroOm for mental or physical exercises in
hilarity. With dinner hanging onto the backs
of their teeth, they are forced down under the
limbo stick or up into laff-riot levels Of enter
tainment in charades. A few spineless souls
may be spun into q mandatory twist, but
whatever there is no quarter given those
guests who would like to sit out the late hours
in conversation.
The Tenth Commandment: Thou shalt not
90 home. In an evening filled with social quick
sand, by far the greatest hazard lies in trying to
wade through the host and hostess who are de-
termined to set new indoor records for party
Longevity. The guest who prepares to leave be-
fore am. is accused of all sorts Of mischief,
especially marital, and every bit in the tone Of
resolute gaiety that has saturated and pre-
sumably sunk-the soiTee.
There is ready rehabilitation for these
former prisoners Of the UNEXPLAINED party.
Once out from under and homeward bound
they may set down a commandment Of their
own Thou shalt not trap Us for an evenimO IN thv
home again. Amen.&
