League of Alaska
Cities Proposed By
Anchorage Mayor
Many Alaska mayors and
City councils are this week re
ceiving invitations from Mayor
Z. J. Loussac of Anchorage as
follows:
“For many years it has been
apparent that the Cities of the
Territory should work together
in order to provide the people
of Alaska with economical and
efficient city government; for
many years there has been a
great lack of contact between
the city governments of Alaska.
“With our rapid growth and
with the rapid emergence of
our Territory from the frontier
status we must work together
in order to fulfill the responsi
bilities we owe our citizens.
“Alaskan Cities are the basic
unit of our government and
will continue as such whether
the Territory achieves statehood
or not.
The Mayors and Councils rep
resent the closest contact that
the Alaskan citizen has with
his government. Their contact
is a daily one, touching every
type of human activity and ex
tending to more and more de
tailed regulation from day to
day in keeping with the ap
parent wish of modern peoples.

REPEAT ON PILING FIRE
Creosoted pilings make the
most spectacular fire! About 10
minutes to 3 the smoke billowed,
the flames shot up, the alarm
sounded and the Fire Depart
ment went into action.
The smoke turned from black
to tan and then died down. The
flames flickered and went out
and the rapidly gathered crowd
dispersed. The fire was out in
about 20 minutes.
The fire had taken place today
where the piling was stacked
along the railroad tracks be
tween the Railway Express of
fice and the railroad depot.
A similar fire in nearly the
same location took pla^e a few
weeks ago.
A survey shows that you can
learn more by keeping your
trap shut—in other words, it’s
hard to blow and swallow at the
same time.
Tip to motorists: The safer
your car—the safer you are.

Catholic Information
Get a priest—any priest!
They carried him into the emer
gency ward, mangled and dying,
and all he would answer to re
peated questions was: “a priest
—a priest!”
‘‘Get a priest,” ordered the
surgeon impatiently, “any priest!
It doesn't matter. I've seen
scores of them die—these Cath
olics—and without exception
each calls for a priest and also
without exception each passes
on resignedly if the priest has
come in time. Funny thing!”
Funny? It’s the most natural
thing in the world if one under
stands the importance to a Cath
olic of the Sacraments and the
need for a priest for administer
ing them.
No matter how faultless the
dying Catholic, no matter how
recently he may have confessed
his sins to a priest, when death!
approaches it is his greatest
desire to make a final confes
sion, to receive his God in Holy
Communion, to have the healing
graces of Extreme Unction—to
pass on to his God with every
possible preparation.
This is what is known as a
“happy death,” for which every
Catholic prays throughout life,
for which he yearns and calls
when he is aware of his critical
condition. That is why the Cath
olic priest is ready day or night,
fair weather or foul, to rush to
the side of the sick or dying.
That is why he will risk plague
or pestilence, shot or shell, dan
ger of any kind, to reach him
who calls for those graces of
God which the priest alone can
administer.
The Catholic priest may or
may not be a good preacher.
He may or may not have a pleas
ing personality. He may or may
not have the average amount
of human weaknesses.
But when he stands upon the
altar of God and when he ad
ministers the Sacraments, we be
lieve he is exercising God-given
powers with the same validity
and efficacy as did Peter and
the other Apostles who received
their mandate from Jesus Christ,
Himself, 1900 years ago.
Every Catholic knows this.
That is why, when death comes
on apace, he calls for a priest—
any priest.
If it's anything Catholic, atk a
Catholic!
