LIKE BAILING OUT THE OCEAN
/
Not Afraid To Fight
OUR GOVERNOR EGAN is not afraid to fight when
the cause is just, as is proven in the employment
security problem now going into high gear at the
Capitol).
Management and labor each came up with bills
they felt were justified. Both bills have good points
and both have extremely unfair provisions. Labor
would tax total wages, which is an unjust, and almost
impossible tax for small business hiring skilled labor,
but does not touch small business with unskilled labor,
so only one group was to be penalized. Management
would cut off the wage earner, who only got in a few
weeks of work during the year. This program was set
up to help the worker who didn’t make enough to
survive, and was not intended for a luxury for those
drawing big wages.
Our Governor has come up with a compromise
bill, carefully worked out, which should save a lot
of time when it reaches the Legislature, and with
minor give and take, should result in a fair bill.
A tax on total wages is just another step toward
inflation, against which the President of the United
States warned, in his recent address to the nation.
We hope that Second Division can look with pride
on its legislators, as brave men ready to support their
Governor in this issue.

Helping Boys To Grow '
SCOUTING HELPS BOYS meet the demands and
opportunities in this increasingly complex world.
Three programs, for boys of three age levels, are
designed to develop physical fitness, self-reliance, an
obligation to God, a sense of personal responsibility,
an attitude of service to others, a willingness to share
with others, and living the free way of life.
As a supplementary program to the nation’s basic
institutions — the home, the church, and the school—
the Boy Scouts of America has the cooperatipn of
religious, civic, business, labor, and educational
interests.
These groups are chartered by the National
Council of the Boy Scouts, to carry on the programs
for its boys and those of the community, all under
selected, competent, trained adult volunteer leaders
— 1,200,000 of them!
Today there are 3,300,000 boy members in 111,000
unit§ which are found in American communities
almost everywhere.
Scouting contributes to the family unit with
parents taking active part in most Scouting activities.
Cub Scouting, for boys 8, 9 and 10, teaches a boy
to do interesting things — handicrafts, collections,
games, stunts, nature lore and hobbies — in his own
neighborhood with his parents.
Boy Scouting, with its out-of-doors program,
teaches the boy of 11 through 13 to be self-reliant. He
learns first aid so that he may be helpful to others
and able to take care of himself in times of emergency.
Through Scouting, the boy 14 and older gets a
well-rounded program of outdoor, social, service, and
vocational activities.
When you support the finance campaign of the
Western Alaska Council, now underway, you are
helping boys to grow.
