“SEE AMERICA FIRST"
(Editor’s note: The letter here
with printed is incomplete due to
lack of space. The first portion
quotes Chapter I, Article 73, Dec
laration Regarding Non-self-gov
erning Territories, in which the
writer states the U. S. is pledged
in signing the United Nations
Charter to “recognize that the in
terests of the inhabitants .... is
paramount, and accept as a sacred
trust the obligation to promote ;o
the utmost.the well-being
of the inhabitants.” The balance
of the letter is as follows:)
It appears to be time that our
globe trotting “Do-gooders” take a
look in their own batk yird. Let
us take on instance of the United
States noncompliance to the above
pledge.
Prior to World War II, the Bris
tol Bay area of Alaska was ihe
richest Red Salmon fishing ground
in the world. Due to mismanage
ment of this fishery by the United
States Fish and Wildlife Service
during and following World War
II the salmon runs have been all
but depleted. It has been neces
sary for the President of the Unit
ed States to declare Western Alas

three years.

this loss of our natural resources

KODIACTOKS PLAN.*..
UNUSUAL PRODUCTION
The Kodiactors, augmented by
an enlarged membership and re
newed interest, are planning the
most unusual production ever pre
sented by Kodiak’s Little Theatre
group, according to Betty Tullos,
in charge of publicity.
The production will be called the
“Festival of Spring.” It is an af
fair devoted to wonderful and ex
citing entertainment, according to
advance notices. Three big-hit, one
act plays will be presented. First
on the program will be “In the
Suds.” This is a very light comedy
based on the “Taming of the
Shrew” theme, and is said to ne
a novel play.
The next attraction will he "Good
Night Please.” This pliip has been
a very successful hit with summer
stock groups in the States. It is a
comical farce portraying' a bank
president trying to enjoy a week of
rest. A play entitled “Submerged”
is the third offering of the eve
ning. This is an interesting drama
that will hold you spellbound, ac
cording to Mrs. Tullos. "You will
actually see a man drown right be
fore your eyes,” she says.
Production dates are June 1, 2
and 3 at the Lake Louise Little
Theatre on the Naval Station.
