SEVENTY YEARS OF SERVICE
Tomorrow marks the seventieth anniversary of the
inauguration of postal service in Juneau.
On April 8, 1881, the Harrisburgh postoffice had
its ollicial opening, but the name was changed to
Juneau in January of the following year. Both names j
honored Juneau's pioneers — Richard T. Harris and
Joseph Juneau, discoverers of gold in Silver Bow Basin
in the summer of 1880.
The first steamer to deliver mail to Juneau (or
Harrisburgh) was the Eureka, formerly the California,
sailing once a month out of Portland, Oregon. In
tho' c early years, mail between Sitka and Juneau was
often carried by canoe,—an arduous trip of from three
days to a week. Today, the flight averages about fifty
minutes.
Not too much information is available on the early
history of Juneau's postal service, although Juneau
citizens had already petitioned the Post Office De
partment for money order service by the summer Of
1889.
Although the list is incomplete, some of the early
postmasters were: J. C. Stitt, who served from 1885
to 1889; Charles E. Coon, 1890 to 1899; R. P. Nelson,
about 1900; John J. C. Barber, 1900 to 1903 and E. J.
Brooks, from 1903 until 1908. Later incumbents, bring
ing the list up to date, include: John T. Spickett, !
E. L. Hunter Sr., Z. M. Bradford, Mrs. Lottie Spickett,
Albert Wile and our present postmaster, Mrs. Crystal |
Snow Jenne.
'
From a small beginning, the progress has been
continual. Air mail and frequent steamer schedules
hare reduced delivery time to a fraction of that re
quired in the early days. Various refinements have
been introduced to streamline the handling of the
United States Mail, Juneau's latest being the recent
installation of metering equipment to speed up parcel
post service.
It is with great pleasure that we salute the men
and women who provide the link with our friends
and relatives away from Juneau and with the firms
throughout the world with which we do business.
MRS. LUTHER C. HESS
Sadness was brought to the hearts of all who
knew her by the death in Seattle Saturday of Mrs.
Harriet Hess, of Fairbanks.
No woman in Alaska has done more for the Terri
tory than Mrs. Hess, who came north early in this
century. Her first home in Alaska was in Juneau
where she was assistant principal in charge of the
local high school for five years, then, in 1907, she
moved to Fairbanks to become high school principal.
It was in Fairbanks that she met Luther C. Hess,
prominent banker, lawyer and mining man of the
interior, to whom she was married in 1911.
Though her activities were many, her chief inter
est over many years was the University of Alaska and
she had been a member of the University Board of
Regents since its establishment in 1917. She was
named, in 1916, to select the site for the proposed
college.
In recognition of her work for the university, the
school’s women’s dormitory was named Harriet Hess
Hall.
Mr. Hess served one term In the Territorial House
of Representatives and six in the Senate as a member
from the Fourth Division and a Democrat. Like her
husband, Mrs. Hess was active in the politics of her
party and was Democratic National Commiteewoman
for Alaska.
Her other interests included welfare work and
she was a member in the Fourth Division of the
Board of Children’s Guardians from 1913 until the
work was taken over by the Department of Welfare
in 1935. Her clubs included the Eastern Star, Pioneer
Women of Alaska, the American Assocation of Uni
versity Women, Soroptimists, the P. E. O.
Few Alaska r.s have had the broad interests of
Harriet Hess. Tew Alaskans have accomplished so
much of worth for the Territory as has Mrs. Hess.
To her husband The Empire, like their other
friends throughout the north, extends very real
sympathy.
OOPS — SORRY!
In two recent references to the Argentine news
paper La Prensa, and between the typewriter and the
printed page, La Prensa became La Presna. So, be
fore we receive any letters telling us how to spell the
name of this world-famous newspaper — here it is:
La Prensa.
The Washington
Merry-Go-Round
(Continued from Page One)
Lafayette in turn passed it on
to Tom Paine with these words:
“The key goes to America. Give
it to our General.”
That was how one of the most
famed tokens of French freedom
happened to be hanging in Mount
Vernon when President Auriol vis
ited Washington’s home last week.
Return Key to France
In this connection I should like
to suggest that the cherished key
to the bastille now be returned to
Fiance—as a symbol of everlasting
frit ndship between our two coun
tries.
The average American who visits
Mount Vernon does not appreciate
the key's significance, and the role
it played in French history. But to
France it means the day of liberty,
the founding of the French Repub
lic. For. as the Liberty Bell tolled
out tire call to revolt in Philadel
phia on July 4, 1776, so the key
to the bastille freed the oppressed
of France on July 14, 1789. :
That is why every July 14 since
then is Bastille Day—the chief1
French national holiday.
Imprisoned in the bastille at that
time were such French patriots as
Vcltaire, Lally-Tollendal, Cardinal
De Rohan and the man in the
iron mask. They had been impris
oned because they criticized the
government or offended members of
the nobility.
Tiiat is why Bastille Day and
the key to the bastille mean so
much to France, and why it would
be such a significant gesture of
iriendship if we returned it at this
time. .
It could be enshrined in a monu
ment not unlike the statue of Lib
erty as a symbol of freedom.
Soviet Scandals
The American public may leel
depressed over the scandals recent
ly exposed in Washington. How
ever, a Russian scandal, with all
the earmarks of the Fulbright RFC
investigation, has recently been re
ported by British intelligence.
The scandal took place in Bulgar
ia, about 37 miles from Sofia where
Russia operates a uranium mine,
the Goten mine.
The boss of the mine is a Rus
sian engineer, Khrissimovich, whose
salary is equal to $1,200 a month.
He named his wife his assistant
at $900 a month, and took over the
most luxurious mansion in Sofia
for their quarters.
Following his example, three
ether Russian engineers, Vetrenko.
Dubrovsky and Stihma, pulled
(own cushy jobs for their wives at.
1 m $450 to $900 monthly. In com- j
ton, Bulgar ian miners are paid i
the equal of $54 a month.
To make life more pleasant in
the satellite state, the Russians set
up their own retail stores, stocked
them with the finest foods in Bul
garia, and set the prices consid
erably lower than prices paid by
Bulgarians.
All this was bitterly resented in
Bulgaria and helped to increase
current Bulgarian unrest.
Capital News Capsules
Less Inflation—The fight against
inflation is a long way from being
won, but the picture is now brighter
than in the last three months. This
is partly due to a tapering off of
the consumer buying spree; also
the recent decision of the Federal
Reserve Board and thf Treasury
Department to depress the price of
long-term government bonds. Big
banks and insurance companies are
now holding on to their govern
ment bonds rather than selling
them and showing a loss on their
books. This means less credit in
flation, though the bankers and in
surance tycoons are far from happy
about it.
Warning to India—Assistant Sec
retary of State McGhee warned
Prime Minister Nehru of India on
his recent trip to check the loyalty
of certain top officers on the Indian
general staff. McGhee made a spe
cial trip to Delhi to warn Nehru
that Russia may try to 'Overthrow
his government by stirring up a
phony revolution. He also gave
Nehru a complete report on the
plot to subvert the Pakistan army,
said this should be a grim lesson
to India. Nehru, however, resented,
rather than welcomed the advice.
As a result Indian-American rela
tions are worse than ever.
Merry-go-round
Marriner Eccles, who has threat
ened to resign from the Federal Re
serve Board several times, now tells
friends he has definitely made up
his mind to leave the board on
June 1. (A mistake—the govern
ment already is painfully short of
good men.> . . . . A1 Hayes, presi
dent of the machinists union, is
talking to other labor chiefs about
publishing a daily labor newspaper.
Jointly sponsored by the AFL and
CIO, it would present the trade
union viewpoint on national issues
as the Wall Street Journal speaks
for big business . . . one reason
Gen. Lucius Clay was eased out as
No. 2 man for mobilization was
Clay’s stubborn refusal to take ad
vice from anyone. His own assist
ants were saving that “even Con
fucius couldn’t advise Lucius.” . ..
The B-36 feud is smoldering again.
This time, instead of the navy
and air force bickering, it's the
army and air force. Army generals
believe the air force should spend
its money on tactical planes to
support ground troops, but the air
force wants to build more B-36’s
for strategic bombing.
