In reference to the future of
Seward and the Kenai Peninsula
Cliff Kaynor. editor and pub
lisher of the Ellensburg, Wash.,
Daily Record, says. “As I see it,
the biggest job you people have
is a selling job.” Mr. Kaynor
and Don Eck, manager of the
National Editorial Association,
are spending the day on the
Peninsula before leaving tonight
on the Alaska. They have just
returned from a several days
trip to Anchorage and Fairbanks
arranging an itinerary for 250
newspaper publishers and their
wives who ’^lan to tour Alaska
in June of 1951.
The way it looks now, ap
proximately 100 of these people
will be spending four days as
guests of Seward and the Kenai
Peninsula.
NOW IS THE TIME to start
laying plans to show these peo
ple an enjoyable time. If you
have any ideas along these lines,
attend the next Chamber of
Commerce meeting and let’s
have it.
A favorable news story in I
each of 100 different Stateside
newspapers would be worth
more from a publicity angle than
any paid advertising we could
buv—at anv price.
SENDING THESE PEOPLE
home with a kindly feeling to
ward Seward and the Kenai
could very well be the making
or breaking of our future. Let’s
make it—starting now!
Liberty comes not by laws:
it is in men, in their traditions,
in their blood—it is an eternal
and unrestricted quest for truth
and a better way of life.
The National Safety Council
reports that one person out of
every 16 persons in the United
States suffered disabling acci- i
dents in 1949. Watch your step
during the balance of 1950.

On a day like this, with the
sun shining and an air of peace
pervading over the town, it is a
difficult thing to muster up the
courage to plan for the civilian
defense of our city.
In the first place, less than
half the people one talks with
believes in the necessity for such
planning. And it is mighty hard
to get the cooperation of people
in a project they have no faith
in, or do not feel the need of.
Nevertheless, if we do not
plan, practice and perfect some
plan of civilian defense, and a
war does develop, and Seward
finds itselT in the path of it—
then we would all blame our
selves for not having forethought
and foresight enough to prepare
in some measure for the emer
genc.v.
Tliis is in no way an effort to
frighten Sewardites into civilian
defense planning, because I am
one of the disbelievers. I will,
however, take any part in any
plan that is devised by any group
of organized planners for the
safety of our people.
When the civilian defense
corps is organized, it will re
quire complete cooperation by
everybody, and must be prac
ticed until it is an everyday part
of the life of Seward, just as
much as the fire department, in
order to make it work in time
of need.
If those in high places think
it advisable to set up practice
for the safety of seaport towns,
then, by all means let us do so,
and promptly. We have heard
considerable talk about it, now
let us have some action and an
indication that someone in town
is thinking about the problem.

Ever notice how clear water
turns muddy when stirred at the
bottom of the pool? The same
thing happens when you pry
too deeply into your neighbor’s
affairs.
A story is making the rounds
that the time is coming when
people will do only mental
work. We are of the opinion
that that will cause record
breaking unemployment.
