BEHRENDS—A JUNEAU TRADITION
The story ot the B. M. Behrends Company Is the
story of Juneau: the story of the firm and the city
that grew up together.
In the early eighties, when B. M. Behrends ar
rived here, Juneau was in its infancy. Less than five
years had passed since Dick Harris and Joe Juneau
had lirst discovered gold in Silver Bow Basin. The
famous Treadwell Mine had been ih operation but
two or three years. Sitka was the capital of the
Territory and the mails were still being carried between
the towns by canoe.
Like most of Juneau's founders, young Behrends
came by way of Sitka. He managed the Sitka Trading
Post for its owner, former Governor Brady, on the
present site cf the Thomas Hardware Company.
Most of the city's early residents were miners
and prospectors who had found their way from the
western United States and the Oregon Territory to
the Cassiar fields, to Wrangell, Sitka and finally
Juneau. These were the men who had business with
young Behrends at the Sitka Trading Post. They had
a great deal of confidence in the young merchant
and urged him to strike out for himself in his own
store, although they discouraged the location of the
new store (where Bert's now stands) on the grounds
that it was too far from the business center of town.
But when the twenty-seven-year-old merchant op
ened the new store, the miners beat a path to its
doors. Behrends outfitted and supplied the miners to
their complete satisfaction and became the confidant
of many of them and custodian of their money and
valuables. After several miners' cabins burned, de
stroying all their contents, Behrends ordered an iron
safe with a combination lock — probably the first
in the Territory.
Prom this beginning, th° Behrends Bank origi
nated, opening for business February 6^ 1891—Alaska’s
first banking house. The bank prospered as did the
store and was soon recognizee as one of the strongest
private banks in the Northwest. Many established
Juneau firms can trace their origin to Behrends
financing as will many yet to come.
Through the years that followed, Behrends name
came to be synonymous with quality merchandise and
honest dealing and the business grew with the repu
tation. The city expanded and improved — and the
Behrends organization kept pace with the new and
varying demands of its customers.
B. M. Behrends lived to see his store change
from a miners’ outfitting post to a modern depart
ment store. His passing in 1936, shortly before the j
store’s golden anniversary was deeply mourned by
his many friends and by the city he had helped to
build.
Juneau salutes the B. M. Behrends Company on
their 64th consecutive year of service to the com
munity.
IN APPRECIATION
“You have a town of character, a town of sta
bility. We like your town, and like to come here.”
That is what S. E. Stretton, District Manager of
Standard Oil of California had to say about Juneau
at the Chamber of Commerce meeting Thursday.
He added that Alaska has been good to his com
pany, that his company wishes to do what it can for
Alaska and for instance gives scholarships to students
attending the University of Alaska. Standard Oil
also has plants at spots in Alaska that don’t pay
for the installations. “The communities need the
fuel, so we continue the service,” Mr. Stretton said.
We appreciate what Mr. Stretton says about
Juneau and what Standard Oil does for Alaska.
We appreciate the fact that the company brings
its meetings of Alaska managers to Juneau. We hope
1 they will come again and again.
The Washington
Merry-Go-Round
(Continued from Page One)
strikes last month in key plants,
including the Douglas plant at
Long Beach, Calif., on September 5;
Pratt and Whitney, Southington,
Conn., on September 19; and Cur
tiss-Wright, Wood-Ridge, N. J., on
September 25.
In addition, strikes are brewing at
tin* DUUmS •pia'M.-TfITSg, OklS.;
ulenn Martin. Baltimore, Md.;
Fairchild, Hagerstown, Md., and
Borg-Warner, Chicago, 111.
SUSPECTED CONSPIRACY
These strikes have the earmarks
of not being entirely coincidental.
The exact engine types produced
by the struck plants cannot be pub
lished, but they are so vital that
aircraft production has been ser
iously crippled.
In order to keep other plants
from shutting down, the Air Force
has accepted airframes without en
gines and other key parts. Mean
while, total plane production has
fallen to almost half the monthly
goal set by the President.
The aviation industry isn't the
sole source of labor trouble, how
ever. Six major work stoppages have
also occurred at the $500,000,000
atomic energy plant at Paducah, Ky.
Another reason for lagging de
fense production is that structural
steel has been going into civilian
construction instead of building de
fense plants. Also the nation is seri
ously short of machine tools. Labor,
incidentally, is reported to be burn
ed up at the new tax bill which is
full of loopholes for certain taxpay
ers.
With American boys dying in
Korea and this country's very ex
istence threatened by Soviet atomic
power, it is time for management
to give up fat war profits and labor
to forget its squabbles.
Note—If the strikes continue, the
Defense Department will ask the
President to appeal in the name of
patriotism for a no-strike pledge
in key defense industries.
AMBASSADOR BOWLES
It wasn’t supposed to leak out,
but all Democratic Senators met
around the .supper table the other
evening to discuss private party
matters. Before the cocktails were
downed, the supper-caucus had
turned into a rally for Chester
Bowles, World War II price boss
and ex-governor of Connecticut.
What got their back up over
Bowles was a GOP policy announce
ment that the Republicans would
oppose Bowles’ nomination to be
ambassador to India.
“This is a test to see whether
the Democrats are running the
Senate or the Republicans," snorted
Rhode Island’s vigorous 84-year
old Sen. Theodore Francis Green.
“Bowles was the only governor
who balanced his budget without
raising taxes,’’ declared Senator
George, with admiration. “I am go
ing to support Bowles, and I feel
every Democrat should support him.”
Though confessing past differenc
es with the ex-OPA chief, the
Georgia Senator described Bowles
as “an honest, courageous, intelli
gent American.”
This was echoed by Arizona’s
modest Sen. Carl Hayden, who said
he had always “found Chester Bowl
es to be honest and a man of great
conviction.
“I suppose during his term as
OPA director, Bowles had scraps
with every member of Congress, but
he always stood his ground," Hay
den recalled.
Freshman Sen. Mike Monroney of
Oklahoma described Bowles as “one
of the best-informed men who has
ever served in government,” and
pointed out that America will be
represented by a man whose “so
cial convictions and political phil
osophy" are particularly suited for
the India post.
NEW DEMOCRATIC UNITY
In fact, the Democrats became so
united over Bowles that the caucus
reached a new high in party har
mony. Even such political oppo
sites as Nevada's Pat McCarran
and Illinois' Paul Douglas clasped
hands.
For two years, Douglas had block
ed McCarran's bill to pay Judges
who have to travel $15 per diem.
Douglas had considered this tod
high, proposed $12.50 per day, but
refused to go higher.
So, taking advantage of the very
friendly spli-lt, McCarran brought
up the question of his two-year-old
bill and twitted Douglas for holding
it up.
“I can’t imagine that the Sen
ator from Illinois wants to hold up
the Judiciary for $2.50,” McCarran
grinned slyly.
bouglas strode over to McCarran,
clasped his hand and boomed: “Pat
this a love feast It’s $15!"
Senate Majority Leader McFar
land urged the Democrats to help
him wind up the Senate's work
by October 13 or, at the latest, Oct
ober 20. Vice President Barkley
agreed that “it’s important for
members to get back to their home
constituency."
SENATOR GEORGE WARNS
Recalling his days in Congress,
Barkley remarked: "I found out that
many things I considered great and
momentous problems in the cloak
rooms of the Senate were of little
importance when I got back home."
He told how he once voted against
a pay raise for himself ar a mem
ber of Congress, then went home
expecting to be praised for his "self'
sacrifice.”
"1 humped into an old friend,
and we leaned up against a build
ing on the shady side of the street
and engaged in conversation,” re
minisced the Vice President. "The
subject of the pay raise came up,
and I told my friend how I had
voted. I expected everybody would
be honoring me for my corageous
action. But the first thing my friend
said was. 'you are Just a fool’.”
The Senators agreed to adjourn
as fast as they could finish the
"must” legislation. Then Senator!
McCarrau, with a twinkle in his eye, j
got up and read a list of 10 “must” :
bills. Ail 10 had been introduced
by MeCarran.
NOTE- Probably the mo t impres- !
sive statement of the evening was
made by Senator George, considered
an arfhconservatlve. Pounding the!
table, the powerful Georgian thun
dered: “The more X look at the
tax picture, I am convinced that we
must have strong economic ccn
trols, both direct and indirect. I
want to make it clear that my
feeling is much more delm'.te than
it has ever been.”
