Little Dutch Band
Still Wows Them
BALTIMORE, Md., (/P) — The
old band wagon with the fringe on
top was 75 years old last summer,
but it was revived after 30 years
of idleness and is well on its way
to being a classic adjunct of pa
rades, picnics and other entertain
ment programs in western Mary
land.
The Little Dutch Band of the
Middletown Volunteer Fire de
partment dresses in costumes of
44 the Gay 90’s with whiskers to
match and tours adjacent areas in
the ancient vehicle. It often plays
tunes that were popular in other
days, but can give out on occa
sion with strictly modern music.

Alaskan To Greet
Christmas Ship
In Bremen
When Europe’s Christmas relief
ship docks at Bremen, a represen
tative from Alaska may be on the
dock to greet her.
Present plans are that eight (it
may be cut to 4) leaders from the
great Pacific Northwest will be
flown to Bremen to welcome the
ship they loaded with food and
clothing, and then will spend two
months in Europe to see the situa
tion for themselves.
Governor Greuning has nomin
ated Ralph Bartholomew of Ketch
ikan as the Alaska representative.
“We are trying the arrange free
transportation by air,” Howard W.
Parish, Christmas Ship chairman,
said in Seattle today. “We are lim

He recommended the bill not be
passed for these reasons:
1. The policy of promoting the
American merchant marine should
be continued because of its proven
worth.
2. A reduction of the American
merchant fleet potential for future
emergencies would harm national
security.
3. There is no assurance the pro
posed revision of the coastal ship
ping laws would give better Alas
ka service, and because of the lack
of obligation of foreign companies
to serve any but the most profit
able routes, poorer service might
result.
4. Alaska’s service can be ade
quately fulfilled by American
shipping.
Companies which served well
during the war should not be
abandoned in peace.
6. American companies should
be encouraged to return service to
