Pest Office Calls
Aleutian Mail Bids
(Continued from Page 1)
During this period Delegate Bart
lett was successful in having Con- j
gress pass his bill which gave
authority to the Postmaster Gen
eral to spend $250,000 a year for
mail boat contracts from Seward
to points in the Alaska Peninsula
and the Aleutian Islands, thus
doubling the sum of money pre
viously available for providing this
service.
In the meantime, the air carrier
having the mail contract had be
come a certificated carrier by des
ignation of the Civil Aeronautics
Board which made mail payments
on this air route mandatory. Dele
gate Bartlett had several meetings
with Post Office Department offi
cials in an attempt to have the
power boat service restored while
still keeping the airmail service.
The department finally agreed to
send the superintendent of the
Railway Mail Service at Seattle,
A. D. Lawrence, to Alaska to in
vestigate the matter. Mr. Lawrence
rendered his report several weeks
ago and acting upon that report
the Post Office Department in
formed Delegate Bartlett previous
to public announcement that the
department' within the week will
advertise for “a safe and seaworthy
vessel of sufficient size to provide
adequate space for mail, passen
gers and freight of a type satisfac
tory to the Postmaster General” to
service the route.
Miss Sandra Dangler made his- j
tory in her young life last Friday (
w h e n she was confined to her
home with a touch of the flu. It
was her first day to spoil a per
fect attendance record in her
school life since she began in kin
dergarten. Sandra is now in the
fifth grade and was very proud of
her record and it was a bit of a
set-back to her to have to give in
and stay home Friday morning.
Mrs. Bob Hall has joined the
nursing staff at the Seward Gen
eral Hospital, effective last Friday

Open Letter to the Residents of Seward
and the Kenai Peninsula:
Do you want to divorce Politics rom engineering in the
engineer's ()ffice ?
Do you like tt> have.your gas tax money diverted to the
creation of a personal political machine for the 1 ligh
wav engineer?
Do you want to have the pas tax money used exclusively
for roads, docks, floats, hush airfields, and not devoted
to frivolous and personal purposes?
Do you want to have your Territorial engineer an
engineer 01 a Police Chief ? ()1 course policing outside
the cit es is, and should he, the function of the Mar
shal s Office, the U.S. Army, or the Alaska Road Com
mission. I his would mean no cost to the Territory,
but would he paid tor from U.S. kinds and would mean
Civil Sen-ice and the cutting out of politics.
Do you want an efficient Coastal 1 lighway to the States
which would end at one stroke maritine strikes anil
Alaska's strategic and menacing isolation—a highway
that will cut i ooo miles between Alaska and the Pacif ic
Coast where dwell 12 million of the world’s most auto
motive-minded people and which would mean that hun
dreds instead ol scores of cars would he travelling to
Alaska—and winch will give direct and efficient access
to the military supply depots in Seattle?
With war portending and without efficient land trans
port, we face the possibility ol having our sea lines
attacked by the most formidable submarine fleet in the
world, or in history. The latest model German sub
marines surrendered to Russia and are now.being dupli
cated by German technicians and operated by German
operators.
If you want real protection from both economic dis
tress and the menace of isolation by war anti destruc
tion of the power of the steamship monopoly and mari
time strikes with an efficient alternate—
