"Alaska Visitors
Association" Gets
Organization Going
With the adoption of the name
"Alaska Visitors Association,” an or
ganization got under way today with
plans to bring tourists to Alaska in
an effort to develop the territory's
untapped resources.
Thirty representatives of towns
and travel industry were present at
the meeting Saturday morning in
the Senate Chambers which chose
George Sundborg as its acting chair
man and Ralph Browne as acting
secretary.
In a keynote address Gov. Ernest
Gruening told of the tourist poten
tial in the territory, and suggested
adoption of the plan to secure an
appropriation from the Territorial
Legislature, to be matched by busi
ness people and travel agencies, to
finance travel or tourist association.
The plan, similar to that of the
Hawaii Visitors Bureau and asso
ciations in the various states could
develop the tourist business until it
could become one of Alaska’s great
est sources of revenue, the governor
said.
“The thing now is to try to make
the organization function, then
money must be raised to match any
funds received from the govern
ment."
With the finest scenery in the
world, we have much to offer the
tourists who respond to Alaska
travel advertising, the governor
said.
Another meeting will be held in
Anchorage Monday, and Mr. Sund
borg, will be present.
For the purposes of organization,
voting procedure was set up with
representation accorded on a basis
of population. Mr. Sundborg will
carry the proxies of the southeast
Alaska group to the meeting in An
chorage.
In a report on tne trip uuuugn
Alaska by George Armitage, Hawaii
tourist executive, and himself, Mr.
Sundborg said they had visited 37
different places in Alaska, attended
25 meetings explaining the purpose
of a proposed tourist bureau, and
made five radio broadcasts.
"This meeting is a follow-up of
those efforts," Sundborg said.
Discussion of means of raising
money, of methods of spending it,
and of administration followed.
Those present at the meeting in
cluded: Mrs. Marion Fraser and
Pat Carroll, representing Skagway;
Mr. Frank Young, mayor of Haines;
from Chilkoot, Carl Heinmiller, Ted
Gregg, Mary Barrer, Steve Larsson
Homer; Royal O'Reilly from Taku
Lodge; J. W. Pettigrew and Elder

FAIRBANKS POLIO
VICTIM FLOWN TO
SEATTLE IMPROVES
SEATTLE, Nov. 4—4*1—Little Jo
ann Wold, 12, Fairbanks polio vic
tim, was recuperating today at
Children’s Orthopedic Hospital af
ter a 1.640 mile flight by Pan Am
erican World Airways from Alaska.
Left crippled by the dread disease,
little Joann was still smiling when
the Pan American Clipper landed
her here at Boeing Field.
Her hardest battle was ended.
She spent 21 days in an iron lung
in a Fairbanks hospital fighting for
her life.
Accompanying Joann on her long
airplane trip south were her mother,
Mrs. Eleanor Johnson and her
physician, Dr. John Weston of
Fairbanks.
At Children’s Orthopedic Hospital,
aided by the resources of the Na

alysis, it is hoped Joann will over
come the crippling after-effects of
the disease.

THESE DAYS
--BY
GEORGE E. SUKOLSKY
THE SHORTAGE OF TEACHERS
I The teaching profession is run
I ning down, although teachers are
| comparatively well paid for a pro
fessional group. To the monetary
payments must be added the short
year, the short day and the op
portunities to earn additional pay.
These used to be regarded favor
ably until the 40-hour week for in
dustrial workers equalized the ad
vantage of a short day for teach
ers. The steady income and tenure
used to be a great advantage for
teachers, but with full employment
and even wartime employment, in
dustry can provide steady work
and seniority is similar to tenure
in some respects.
Teachers go into industry for
higher pay. It is a matter of
money. The preparation for school
teachers has become stiffer; the
examinations tougher; and if a
teacher really wants to advance,
he or she has to take summer work,
leading to an M. A. or a Ph. D.
I It is cheaper to join a union and
get a job in a factory.
There was a time when the posi
tion of schoolteacher stood in the
community as a post of great dig
nity and importance. The school
teacher was among the leaders of
men. Public esteem and leader
ship are often compensations in
themselves. The leveling of com
munal life has removed these ad
vantages and has left the teacher
in the position of just another
government worker, often regarded
as a particularly unsatisfactory
worker because the school system
in many communities is no longer
favorably accepted by parents who
wonder why their wonderful child
ren come out of the schools such
queer creatures. Non-parents won
der at the costs.
The number of children going
to school is on the increase. Shifts
of population influence school costs
and activities. For instance, large
new building projects throw upon
communities new burdens of tax
ation beyond their strength. Thous
ands of children are being born
I to veterans who in from four to
six years hence will need schools
in these new areas. Local budgets
rarely make provisions long enough
in advance not to send the tax
rate up to heights that actually
endanger home ownership.
In some communities, teachers
are changed often to avoid tenure,
thus preventing that continuity of
personality which builds an insti
tution. In rural communities that
is particularly a growing vice, the
idea being that the community does
not want to be tied to a teacher
it cannot fire.
It is expected that by 1957, ele
mentary school enrollment will
reach 29,500,000 and high school
enrollment will be 7,300,000. This
will mean an Increase by about
10,000,000 children over a period of
10 years, and provision must be
made for them, not only in build
ings but teachers.
i The real dilemma for local com
munities is that money is getting
to be harder to find. The thing
called "welfare” eats up so much
of a municipality’s budget. Even
rural townships find old age relief
and similar welfare funds encroach
ing on school and road money.
Real estate in cities cannot carry
much more of a tax load without
raising rents, and whenever Chat
is tried, for whatever reason, a
howl goes up on the general as
sumption that the landlord is a
usurper per se.
If parents were happier about
the schools, the teachers would,
nevertheless, have greater public
support for increases. The fact is
that quite generally parents won
der what the children learn at
school. The fault is not altogether
the teacher's; it is as much the
responsibility of the parent.

As a parent, he insists that his
child shall, in the school, be taught
to be a decent citizen, an upright,
moral person. This can only be
done by religious education; by
teaching by precept; by reading
the bible and the great writings of
our civilization. As a citizen, he i
often objects to just that. He can.
not have it both ways. Children;
brought up without moral precept
and without religious guidance lack
a complete education in their early
years. Yet, many parents want I
just that but object to the results
of their own desires. Then they
blame the schools and the teachers
for their own decisions as parents
and citizens.
Teaching in elementary schools
must be made more attractive
while at the same time the schools
must be more selective as to the
quality of teachers. It is a tough
problem not easily solved, but an
important one if the citizens of our
next generations are to be any good.
