Motorists Most
Stop for
Emergency Vehicles
City Police Chief Bernard Bou
wens and Territorial Police offi
cers this week drew attention of
all motorists to the importance
of coming to a complete stop
when being approached or pass
ed by an emergency vehicle
■which is showing a red light and
sounding a siren.
On Monday of this week two
incidents that could have result
ed in an accident were reported
while fire and police equipment
were answering a fire call. At
the intersection near the Steve
Ward building motor vehicles
failing to stop nearly caused a
collision and a police patrol car
was forced into the ditch by an
approaching vehicle which fail
ed to observe the flashing red
light out on -the highway.
Territorial traffic laws state:
"The operator of any vehicle up
on meeting any vehicle with a
red light showing to the front
ishtall pull hi3 vehicle to the ex
treme right side of the street or
tiighway and stop until the em
ergency fas passed or until he
is directed by a person of com
petent authority to proceed.”
The application and enforce
ment of this law pertains to
streets of municipalities as well
as to roads and highways.

MEETING SPEAKERS
Mrs. Robert Reeves, National
Gemmittee woman, and Miss
Dorothy Prior, delegate to the
Republican Territorial Conven
tion in Juneau, both of Anchor
age, were guest speakers at the
Matanuska Valley Women’s Re
publican club meeting held on
Monday evening of this week.
Miss Prior spoke to the group,
offering an outline of business
conducted at the Juneau conven
tion. Miss Prior estimated that
there has been a 50 percent turn
over in voters since 1950. It is
necesary that candidates for of
fices get themselves known, she
said, for the voters who are
comparatively new to Alaska will
be voting for names that are
familiar to them.
Mrs, Reeve spoke on “Why Be
A Republican”, comparing the
basic aims of the party as being
similar to those of the Democra
tic party. “It is the way in which
these aims are carried out that
we differ”, she said. “The Re
publican party offers help to the
public with which to help them
selves and an opportunity to re
turn the money to the taxpayer
at a later date,’’ she said. “The

Dairymen of the area who will
be transporting milk to the local
creamery Sunday morning are
requested to contact creamery
manager Jack Flint to arrange

Residents are invited to keep
in touch with developments in

the spur track from the crossing
and set it back, running it into
the main line just ahead of the !

the use of longer planks.
the money is coming from (the
taxpayer) nor with any provision
for returning it to the taxpayer.”
Mrs. Reeve urged more interest
in politics. She warned against
CIO infiltration in politics.
