A GREAT SUCCESS
The Bering Sea Club Hallowe’en
party last Saturday evening was a
big success with a capacity crowd
of merry makers filling the club
rooms which were decorated for
the holiday with cats and witches,
pumpkins and pumpkin candles at
the tallies.
The party was very informal
with guests apperaing in gingham
dresses and some with pigtails.
Many admired the beautiful mur
tls which were completed last
week by C. Johansen, depicting
Alaskan scenes.
Bobby Whiten furnished the
music for the dancing.

Election eve — as usual — finds
the major Presidential candidates
confident of victory.
President Truman, speaking in
St. Louis Saturday night, said the
people, through the Democratic
party, “are going to win this elec
! tion.”
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, the Re
publican nominee, told a New
York City audience it was the “eve
of victory” for the GOP.
Truman has predicted a vote of
60.000. 000. A heavy vote “is always j
good news for the Democratic
party.”
Herbert Brownell, Jr., GOP
campaign manager, looks for a
52.000. 000 turnout with a margin
of at least 3,000,000 for Dewey, j
Gov. J. Strom Thurmond, States’ t
Rights candidate, predicted his
ticket will receive “millions of,
votes” and prevent either Truman
or Dewey from enacting an anti- i
job discrimination law.

1948 campaign as only one battle
Plan 500 Homes,
Large Warehouse
For Anchorage
■ ■
SEATTLE, </P)—Proposed plans
for the construction of 500 homes
and a large warehouse in the An
chorage area were under discus
sion by officials of a Seattle devel
opment firm today after a trip to
Alaska to investigate possible sites
first-hand.
Harry Lewis, president of the
Pacific Alaska Development com
pany, said the outlay may approx
imate $25,000,000. He said the pro
ject would be of a permanent na
ture.
Besides housing, the firm is con- j
sidering the construction of a huge
warehouse at the proposed termin
al yards at Anchorage to handle
supplies for railbelt distribution to
wes'ern Alaska.
Lewis said a smaller warehouse
may be built near Fairbanks.
Others on the trip were Gerald
Field, consulting architect, and
Floyd Reischling, an attorney.

o fthe outcome his Progressive
party will fight on.
Alaska Has Arrived
Says Ken Kadow
FAIRBANKS, (/P)—An economy
richer than the gold treasures of
the past will follow the develop
ment of adequate housing in Alas
ka, Kenneth Kadow, chairman of
the interior department’s Alaska
field committee, told the city coun
cil and planning commission in a
week end pep-talk.
He recommended the housing
bottleneck be broken by immedi
ate construction of temporary
housing for skilled labor.
He cited these points in support;
of his optimism:
Alaska is the last domestic
source of 11 metals the United
States is collecting in industrial
stockpiles.
It has two of the world’s best
hydroelectric sites — and electro
chamical industries will move any
where on earth where they can
find cheap power.
The federal government is ready
to spend two billion dollars in the
next few years in the Territory—
but even without this adrenalin of
dollars, Alaska “has arrived,” he
said.
