Thanks for Our Blessings
EASTER IS' THE SEASON of hope and joy, and
many of us will pause during these days of dedica
tion to give thanks for the blessings we have received.
. . . The Alaska Crppled Children’s Association feels
sure that if you realized this fact: “Crippling strikes
one family in five every year,” your contribution to
the Easter Seal Campaign will be a generous one.
The Alaska Crippled Children’s Association was
formally established in 1946. It is a voluntary, non
profit, lay organization, dedicated to helping the phy
sically handicapped in Alaska. It cooperates with
all public and private agencies in any and all services
for the crippled child not duplicating services already
being rendered by an existing agency.
Some of the services given through its program
are: Psychological Services, Physical Therapy, Speech
and Hearing Therapy, and the services of a Hospital
Mother, for the children in the Orthopedic Ward at
Mt. Edgecumbe. Many of the Chapters help supply
eye glasses, hearing aids, braces, and other equipment
necessary to the rehabilitation of the handicapped.
REMEMBER — “No man is so tall as when he
stoops to 'help a crippled child.”
The Question Is How!
LYNDON JOHNSON, the Senate Majority Leader,
says: “Americans are a can-do, will-do people.
They believe in progress and growth. They believe in
ever-higher income and earnings for all the people.
And they want tomorrow to be far better than yes
terday.”
Everyone will agree with such general objectives.
The question is how to reach them.
If we are to have ever-higher income and earn
ings, and if tomorrow is to be better than yesterday,
we must have an expanding and improving economic
machine. That means we must have tax policies, for
insaance, that will encourage investment and risk
taking. It means, above all, that we must have a
climate which is favorable to the growth of businesses
of all kinds and all sizes.
Whether we will have such a climate will in large
part depend on the actions and attitudes of the Con
gress of which Senator Johnson is so influential a
member.
MacMillan Gets
Top-Level Greeting
At Leningrad
LENINGRAD, Oft — British
Prime Minister Harold MacMil
lan arrived in Leningrad Saturday
to find a surprise top-level Soviet
delegation waiting to greet him.
It was headed by First Deputy
Premier Mikoyan and Foreign
Minister Gromyko.
A British spokesman said Mac
Millan had no advance notice
that Mikoyan was joining him for
his two-day visit to Leningrad.
A British official said that Mi
koyan had mentioned earlier in
the week that he might come^to
Leningrad but, as in the case of
Soviet Premier Khrushchev’s trip
to Kiev, the British were later
told these plans had been dropped.
Khrushchev canceled a trip to
Kiev with the British leader,
pleading he had to see a dentist
about a toothache. That same day
he received an Iraqi delegation at
the Kremlin, and many observers
said Khrushchev had a “diplo
matic toothache.”
Mikoyan was in a gay mood as
he waited on the ramp and
greeted MacMillan. Both ex
changed friendly remarks before
MacMillan went off with Lenin
grad officials to inspect a brightly
uniformed guard of honor.
The appearance of Mikoyan was
especially surprising in view of
the fact that he implied Friday
night that MacMillan was respon
sible for the chill on British-So
viet talks in Moscow by taking a
“tough line” on Germany.
Mikoyan also voiced a warning
that if the West does not arrange
a peace treaty with Germany and
settle the Berlin issue, the Soviets
will sign a separate pact with
East Germany. The Western pow
ers do not recognize the Commu
nist East German state.

Alaska House Has Bill
Providing for Vacancy of
Governor’s Office
JUNEAU, UP) — A bill providing
a method of declaring the office
of Governor vacant was introduced
in the House Friday.
The bill provides that if the
Governor has been unable to per
form his duties for six consecu
tive s months the Senate should
adopt a formal motion finding
him incapacitated.
Within 10 days the House would
hold a public hearing, presided
over by a supreme court justice,
to prove or disprove the charges
specified in the Senate motion.
A finding of incapacity would
be left to a vote of the 40 House
members, and it would take a
two-thirds vote of the House to
rule that a vacancy existed.
