"Your laws and the laws of
any country are only as strong
as the people who make an !
enforce them ” J.Earl Cooper,
U. S. Attorney for the Third
Division, told the Kodiak Ro
tary Club Tuesday.
Cooper, who arrived here
Sunday for the session of the
I District Court, was guest
•speaker following the club’s
[regular luncheon. The title of
his talk was The Functions of
the U. S. Attorney’s office.
Ray Martin, member of the
club, shared the podium with
Cooper and gave a colorful
resume of his recent trip to
Mexico.
One of the most pleasant
duties of the U. S. Attorney’s
office is in the matter of grant
ing citizenship to men and'
women, Cooper said.
“It is nice to do something
for people rather than to
them, as the duties of my
office so often require,’’Cooper
stated.
He explained the close co
operation existing between
the attorney’s office and the
U. S. Marshal.
“Most U. S. attorneys are
only charged with prosecuting
federal offenses. However, in
Alaska and Hawaii, we are
required to prosecute major
territorial offenses as well as
federal,” Cooper said.
Martin told of visiting Ro
tary Clubs in Mexico, com
pared the prices of that
country to those in the U. S.,|
and told of an incident that
occured to him while strolling
the streets of Acapulco.
J. G. Martz, who has seven
years of perfect attendance
at meetings,is a past president
of the club and now an active
director and secretary, re
minded the members that Ro
tary was observing the 46th
anniversary of its founding
this month.
The first Rotary club was
started by Paul Harris, a
Chicago lawyer, in Eebruary,
1905.
Guests attending the meet
ing besides Cooper were A1
Strelaw of Kodiak Naval Sta
tion, Dean Hart, PNA aud
itor, and visiting Rotarian
Elmer Johnson.
Kodiak visitors to the An
chorage Fur Rendezvous are
