"SMALL BUSINESS”
By C. WILSON HARDER
According to Greek mythol
ogy, the city kingdom of Troy
was well night impregnable.
The Trojan warriors were
skilled and brave, the defense
works well engineered.
But the
Trojans, de
spite their
bravery and
engineering
in genu i ty,
had some
rurious weak
nesses. One
was that i n
their highest c. W. Harder
government circles there was
quite a fondness for good look
ing women, usually without
benefit of clergy. The other
weakness was a great gullibil
ity.
* * *
Hence, when the Greeks built
a great wooden horse and set
it before the gates, the Trojans
could not resist taking this
horse in to get a better look.
* * *
There are many who feel
that the location of the United
Nation's headquarters in New
York is working out to he some
thing of a 20th Century Trojan
, horse. This belief is held by
many who do not necessarily
condemn the principle the lT
;-.. hul believe it should be in
some place Use Switzerland.
* -.'f A
Largely due to tne very vigi
' lr.nt work of the FBI. Russian
• spies are being picked up in the
‘ United States who are actually
i officially credited to the Rus
: siati delegation at the UN.
! There is also a bit of talk
around that some of the more
attractive members of the Rus
i sian fair sex have no qualms
* about accepting an invitation to

polite phrasing goes, if there is
a chance to latch on to some
security secrets.

It seems quite fruitless to
rail at any questions of Moral
ity involved. This is a matter
on which attention has been
focused since Adam and Kve,
without too great an effect.
Thus, from a standpoint of
realism, it is to be recog
nized when there are a lot of
well paid bureaucrats with lit
tle to do, and lots of leisure in
juxtaposition with attractive
and dedicated femmes fatale,
things are bound to happen.
Thus, moving U.N. out of the
U S. seems logical.
* * *
It remained recently for
Congressman H. R. Gross of
Iowa to really point up the
silliness of the situation. The
Congressman reports, due to
Russian insistence, U.S. tax
pavers pay major share of
cost of operating a school in
Moscow fer Russian spies.
0*0
The United States pays.
Congressman Gross says,
32.02'-, of the entire cost of
operating the UN operations.
Part of this cost is maintain
ing a school in Moscow to teach
R. nans the English language
for .obr at U.N. in Now Yonc. j
Ik *
Thus, r .hips the American j
people a.e even more stupid
i than the Song destroyed Tro
1 ;r.ns, as there is no record that
the Trojans put up one drach
! ma to help the ->ncient Greeks
| build their woouen horse. But
today tiie American taxpayer is
being f ed to pay the major
part oi " cost to train Rus
sian «n methods of des
troying the United States. This
is somewhat akin to the con
demned man being forced to
pay a part of the hangmans fee.
Centennial Motto
Sought In Contest
A competition aimed at the
creation of a suitable centen
nial motto and emblem was an_
nounced today by Robert D.
Arnold, executive director of
the Alaska Centennial Commis
sion.
“The commission seeks a dis
tinctive motto and emblem,”
Arnold said, “to aid in the pro
motion of Alaska’s one hun
dredth anniversary under the
American flag.” He said that
the motto and emblem would
be used on various items, such
as publications or medallions,
which are produced in connec
tion with the Centennial cele
bration.
Goals for the Centennial year
adopted at the commission’s
first meeting were, Arnold said
“to fashion a statewide centen
nial for Alaskans and others
1 which will appropriately com_
memorate the purchase of Al
aska by the United States from
Russia, to celebrate Alaska’s
rich historical heritage, and to
demonstrate to the people of
the world, Alaska’s promise of
the future.”
Entries in the competition
may be made in either or both
of the two divisions — motto
and theme. Open to all Alas
kans, the competition closes
Oct. 31, 1963. Announcement of
prizes will be made later.
The rules which govern this
competition are as follows:
1. Entries may be made in
either or both of the two divi
sion—motto or emblem.
2. No uniform entry blank
wil be provided, but it is sug
gested that entries be made on
standard letter - size paper If
entries are made in both divi
sions, separate sheets of paper
should be used.
3. All persons residing ir. Al
aska are eligible to enter this
competition, with the excep
tion of members of the Alaska
Centennial Commission, the
Department of Economic Dev
elopment and Planning, its
staff, or members of their fam
ilies.
4. All entries must be re
ceived at the office of the Com
mission (Box 1421, Juneau) no
later than midnight Oct. 31,
1963.
5. Entries will be judged on
the basis of their originality,
dramatic impact, aptness in
portrayal of Alaska, and appro
priateness for use in the Cen
tennial celebration.
6. Judging of entries will be
done by members of the Alaska
Centennial Commission or a
committee of its choice. They
will announce their decision no
later than Dec. 31, 1963. The
decision of the judges will be
final. Whether the winning en
tries will be designated as of
ficial for the Centennial will be
the decision of the Commission.
