Seward people this week have
had the opportunity to listen in on
and. if it had been deemed neces
sary, the right to intervene in a
Civil Aeronautics Board hearing in
volving air carrier service between
this seaport city and tho city of
Anchorage.
Probably the most significant
aspect of the entire proceeding
from where we sit is the fact that
someone has kept faith with Sew
ard. About four months ago, Mr.
Kinsey of the Civil Aeronautics
Board was in Seward and at that
time said the hearing would be
held here. Mr. Kinsey kept his
word.
The people of Seward are more
interested in certification of a Sew
ard based air carrier than in who
carries the mail or at what price.
Evidence presented clearly de
fines the fact that Seward wants a
locally based carrier. The CONVEN
IENCE of such an arrangement is
undeniable. The NECESSITY or
lack thereof for such an operation
will be decided upon by the Civil
Aeronautics Board. If. in these four
days of the hearing in Seward, evi
dence presented is not sufficient
to convince the Board of the neces
sity for a Seward based carrier,
such a certificate will not be grant
ed as a result of this hearing.
Now, my friends, if we have evi
dence at our disposal which might
have influenced the Civil Aero
nautics Board into making the de
cision we want—but did not submit
our facts at the hearing—we have
no one to blame but ourselves if
the decision does not suit us. We
had the opportunity and the right
to intervene. It might well be a
long time before another such op
portunity is presented.
Now we find ourselves in the po
sition where we must accept with
out criticism the decision of the
Board, which will weigh the facts
presented and render a decision
which appears to be the best for
the most people.

By Mildred Kirkpatrick
One of the most amazing
news items was brought to my j
attention today. A request was I
made by Miss Helen Case, sec- j
retary at Jesse Lee Home, to
inform the people of Seward
“in a nice way” that the/gardens
at Jesse Lee Home are private
property.
Every mouthful of food that
is not raised and preserved from
the farm and gardens at Jesse}
Lee must be purchased. This
adds considerably to the ex
pense of operating the home.
Miss Case tells me that the
little boys at the Home have to
stand guard in shifts to protect
their garden from vandals and
from pilfering by townspeople,
some of them prominent people.
The boys are now taking down
license numbers of cars whose!
passengers are observed taking
radishes, onions and other small
stuff from the garden.
It seems hard to believe that
anyone would deliberately pilfer j
from this garden any more than i
they would steal from their
neighbors. There is no doubt
that the Jesse Lee Garden is
well kept and the vegetables
are tempting, but let’s refrain
from depriving those youngsters
of the benefit of their labors
and the natural pride they have
in the raising of fine vegetables.
It is unfair, unjust, illegal,!
to pilfer from the Jesse Lee
Home garden just as much as
it is to break into a man's home.
Let’s have it stopped!
KITCHEN SHOWER FOR
BEVERLY BAUER
Miss Beverly Bauer, bride
elect. was tendered a kitchen
shower Tuesday afternoon at
the home of Mrs. K. S. Rustad.
with Mrs. Warren Bauer co
hostess.
The living room was prettily
decorated appropriate for the
occasion, featuring a cake cov
ered with miniature kitchen
furniture.
During the afternoon games
were enjoyed, ending with a
surprise “mock wedding. While
Mrs. Rustad played the wedding
march with a mouth organ, Mrs.
Clarence Larson entered the
guest room dressed as the “coun
try parson”. Next came the
“bride and groom,” little Lor
raine and Barton Stanton, fol
lowed by train carrier, little
Christine Larsen. The reading
of the ceremony caused much
hilarity, and the bride-elect
stated that she would be a duti
ful wife to avoid the “conse
quence.”
The honoree was the recipient
of many beautiful gifts, after
which a delicious dessert plate
was served to the guests present.
Guests were Mrs. Robert Duf
fy, Mrs. Wallace Stanwyck. Mrs.
Joe Hardy, Mrs. Donald McDon
ald, Mrs. John Sandvsky, Mrs.
James McSwain, Mrs. Warren
Bauer, Mrs. Forrest Rustad,
Mrs .Lloyd Thornton and Mrs.
Clarence Larsen.
