SEWARI) INTENSELY GRATEFUL
Again Seward citizens and the people of this en
tire region should feel grateful to the War Department,
the Alaska Road Commission and to^ Major Malcolm
Elliott, president of the commission, in that the final
appropriation for the harbor of refuge for small ves
sels. Resurrection Bay, has been alloted, the sum of
$40,000, as is announced announced in today’s dispatches.
First of all comes the great benefit to small boat
owners who will now find a haven from south winds
which somtime attain frightful proportions in this
vast bay; secondly, Seward is bound to achieve a great
er commercial business, from which all will enjoy some
part; thirdly; boating, as a recreation, will receive an
impetus which has long been lacking situated as we
are on the edge of one of the finest bays in the world,
bar none.
And Seward is also grateful that many other ports j
and waterways of Alaska have also received liberal al-!
lotments for important port projects.
REPORT ON THE REDS
Some rather surprising information is contained
in the recent report of the House committee created:
to investigate the activities and propaganda of Com
rnuists in the United States.
The report shows that while the actual number of
Communists in this country is relatively small, perhaps
not more than 500,000, they are very active in their at
tacks upon American institutions and our system of
government. It is also stated that these Communists
'‘are apparently proud of taking orders from Moscow
and giving allegiance to the Red flag of the Soviet
Union of Russia.”
Briefly, the Communist program is to abolish all
so-called capitalistic governments and bring the whole
world under the domination of Russia; to confiscate
and take over ail property by the state; to establish
race equality, social and otherwise; to abolish all forms
of religion.
There are no less than 11 daily and 78 weekly Com
muist. newspapers in the United States, nearly all print
ed in fareign languages, which vigorously advocate
this program, besides 12 Communist publications not
entered as second class mail matter. In addition, tons
of pamphlets and other ‘Communist literature are cir
culated each year.
Two organizations for propaganda work among
school children are maintained, called the Young Com
muist League and the Young Pioneers of America. A
total of more than 60 Communist organizations oper
ating in the United States are listed by the committee.
One significant statement by the committee, which
really sums up the case, is as follows: “In reality, Com
munism is a mortal enemy within our country, aiming
to destroy our republican form of government, guar
anteed by the Constitution, to cause civil war and bring
about revolution in the United States.”
The efforts of the American Federation of Labor
in its fight against Communism are highly praised by
the committee. The Federation’s strong stand has kept
the Reds from making much headway among American
workers.
Here’s a tip for General Manager Ohlson of the
Alaska Railroad, to be used perhaps, in the future. The
Burlington railroad is getting tired of having motorists
knocking its trains around. So, when Floyd Hauck of
Broken Bow, Neb., charged ‘his automobile into a
freight train, knocking three box cars into the ditch,
the railroad sued him for $239.
It seems that no one has thought of a taxpayer’s
relief bill.
