COLD BAY SUMMIT MEETING
The great debate at the Cold
Bay Summit Meeting was the cur
rent issue of moving the Capitol.
The logical place for the Capitol
is Cold. Bay according to the Rus
sel Creek Hermit—but Cold Bay’s
elder statesman disagrees.
The Hermit from Russel Creek
qualified his arguments by say
ing “Cold Bay is a transportation
hulb with a major all-weather in
tercontinental airport, located ad
jacent, to the North Pacific sea
lanes and has a harbor and dock
that wilt accomodate the largest
vessels. In addition the building
of the Aleutian Railroad will pro
vide surface transportation to
such important places as Sand
Point, Squaw Harbor, Akutan and
Nirioolski.” And according to the
Hermit, “Cold Bay is closer to
all the other 49 states than any
other city.” . The Hermit went
on to say, “and natural resources
.abound in , the area, with fish,
crab, whales, 40 million dollar mer
cury mines and air—the latter a
boon to any legislator prone to
run on wind. ”
At this point in the great de
bate, Cold Bay’s Elder Statesman
stopped pbfifing his cheroot and
replied, “We don’t want the Cap
itol at Cold Bay because of the
wind, for there might be legisla
tors that are all sail and no an
chor. “Furthermore,” he said
,“it is against the law to move the
Capitol to Cold Bay. The Cap
itol will be located in a neon jun
gle where people live only until
they are run over by an auto
mobile.”
’ The Hermit interrupted to ad
vance a question, “What law pre

Big Debate Is On
The boys down Capitol way,
(Washington, that is), have had
their entire schedule disrupt
ed by the great debate which con
tinues to rage on thte hill. Sen.
Gruening’s newsletter will give
you an inkling of the proceedings
as our Southern gentlemen hold
the floor on the civil rights bill.
“Sen. Ernest Gruening (D -
Alaska) was among members “liv
ing in” on Capitol Hill this week
as the United States Senate
remained in continuous session
24 hours a day. The session,
which began at noon Monday, was
broken by only one 15-minute re
cess as senators from the South
spoke extensively in opposition to
any action on civil rights.
.'Senator Gruening identified him
self with a group of Democratic
Heberals pledged to passage of the
strongest possible civil rights bill.
The features advocated by this
group include 1) an effective vot
ing rights provision, 2) authority
for the attorney general to en
force the 14th amendment, 3)
technical and financial assistance
to school districts doing away with
segregation and 4) if necessary,
the invoking of closure to cut off
debate and bring the civil rights
issue to a vote.

One Beam family for six
generations... One Kentucky Bourbon
formula for 165 years!
What makes Beam bourbon taste so
good? More than anything—it is the fact
that today, as for 165 years, it is still the
Beams who make BEAM, under the
same formula, in the same Kentucky
country where bourbon was bom. That
is why you can always buy Beam
bourbon with trust.
