We, the Veterans of Foreign
Wars and American Legion Of
ficers and members of Kodiak, on
this day—November 11 - 1960,
known as Veterans Day, do soilm
nly bow our heads in silent prayer
for our departed comrades. We
salute the many veterans through
out the free world for the part
played by them in helping to bring
about peace.
We commend our Govern
ment for its part in main
taining peace. We commend all
branches of the Armed Services
of the United States for their
unity, knowledge, alertness and
continuous efforts in maintaining
peace.
It is our sincere hope that
someday Veterans organizations
will cease to exist as this will! mean
a complete end of armed conflict
throughout the world.

JUNEAU (/P) — “Alaska is de
finitely back in the two party sys

not been expected to make more
than a token showing. They cut
deeply into the Democrats major
ity in the legislature, gave Rep.
Ralph Rivers a scare in his bid for
re-election, and put Nixon in a neck
and neck battle with Kennedy for
the State’s three electoral votes.”
