OPS Appoints Two
Juneau Grocers
To Advisory Board
Two Juneau grocers have been
appointed to the Food Distributors
Industry Advisory Committee for
Alaska, Fred O. Hanford, Terri
torial Director for the Office of
Price Stabilization, announces.
They are: Bill Cope of 20th Cen
tury' Super Market and R. W. Rob
inson of West Coast Grocery Co.
The appointments were made by
Michael V. DiSalle, national direc
tor of Price Stabilization.
Purpose, of the advisosy com
mittee is to consult with O.P.S.
officials in the preparation of a
tailored regulation for the food dis
tributing business in Alaska. This
trade is presently covered by Regu
lation 9. but a tailored regulation
is deemed desirable to take into
consideration specific trade prac
tices and business methods of the
food distributing business.
Committees have been formed in
the clothing, hardware, used car
and lumber trades, Hanford said,
and another is contemplated for
the bituminous coal business.
“O.P.S. policy is to invite a repre
sentative group qf business men to
sit down with us and supply needed
information before we draft a tail
ored regulation,” Hanford explained.
"We have had to confine these
sessions to the four largest towns
in Alaska because these are the
towns where we maintain branch
offices. It is a little impractical
to ask business men from the
smaller towns to travel some dis
tance to attend a meeting since
they would have to pay their own
expenses."

Christmas Dinner
Two new members were initiat
ed into the Pioneer Auxiliary ol ;
Igloo No. 6 at a meeting held re
cently. The new members were Mrs.

for baskets to be distributed to the
needy at Christmas, it was an
nounced at meeting. Mrs. Howard
Erickson was awarded the crocheted
bed spread.
The Pioneers are to hold their
Christmas turkey dinner December
28 at 6:30 p.m. in the IOOF hall.
Gifts are to be exchanged at the

Guard Encampment
Provides Big
Logistics Problem
Approximately 55 tons of equip
ment and supplies were moved over
an 800-mile rail and water supply
line in connection with the Alaska
National Guard encampment now
being held at Mendenhall Glacier.
This included 12 tons of food, two
tons of meat, 60 tents, gasoline field
ranges for cooking, oil tent stoves,
cots, mattresses and weapons.
This is what the military calls
“logistics” which Webster defines as
“the military science that embraces
the details of moving or supplying
armies and the general conduct of
a campaign.”
These supply functions are the
responsibility of the U .S. Property
and Disbursing Officer Lt. Col. M.
H. J.’isma, stationed at Anchorage.
He i* assisted by Maj. E. W. Kunkle
n.d Warrant Officer Joseph Walsh,
,Uo stationed at Anchorage.
They say that their department
furnishes everything “except the
body" in connection with encamp
ment.
YOUR LIFE
INSURANCE...
Calvin Coolidge, former Pres
ident of the United States and
then a member of the Board
of Directors of the New York
Life Insurance Company up to
the time of his death, once
said:
“I urge every father and
mother as they are interested
in the future of their children
to see that they are taught the
purpose and value of life in
surance. Parents should help
their children to take out poli
cies at as early an age as pos
sible. Taking out such policies
and then turning them over to
the children as soon as they
are self-supporting starts them
cut in life with a real value
and assists them in acquiring
early a sense of responsibility
and habit of saving which will
help them throughout their
lives.”

or daughter this advantage—
