SCHWINN BIKES AT MADSEN'S
COMMUNICATION
The following has been received
by The Empire:
An open letter to the City Coun
cil, Juneau, Alaska:
On the morning of November £
a two-alarm fire ravaged some
buildings on Franklin Street
Though these buildings were verj
old and seemingly in not too good
condition it was a tragedy that thej
were burned, for in their destruc
tion two children were killed. As far
j as anyone can deduce from the news
dispensed by the radio or newspaper,
this frightful tragedy might have
been avoided.
Although the responsibility for the
children’s death may be laid to their
having been locked in their room,
these questions will occur to those
who consider even disinterestedly
this tragedy:
1. Why did this hotel have only
one exit, when most public meeting
places or rooming-houses must have
more than one exit?
2. Has any qualified official in
spected buildings in this city to dis
cover if they are adequately pro
tected against fire?
3. Can the causes of the many
fires which have occurred in Ju
neau in the past year and a half
be laid only to an unfortunate chain
of circumstances?
4. Or are the people of the city of
Juneau to blame for the deaths of
these two young boys and the trag
edies of the other fires, because of
their indifference, carelessness or
callousness?
The volunteer firemen of Juneau
and Douglas have performed their
services in a competent and fear
less manner, but they have too
many counts against them when
buildings such as those which
burned November 9 are allowed to
stand uninspected and unprotected.
We as a city must take upon our
shoulders the responsibility fer dis
asters which occur so repeatedly.
Perhaps we can make our city one
to be proud of, by insisting on ade
quate fire prevention through good
ordinances requiring a high mini
mum standard of fire safety, rigid
enforcement of such ordinances, and
a thorough safety education pro
gram for all people in the area.
Until we of Juneau can accept the
responsibility for fire prevention,
our city will be one to be avoided
instead of admired.
(signed) Betty Hammond,
P. O. Box 2221.

"IF WINTER COMES"!
CAST, 20TH CENTURY
For acting at its very best, you
will have to turn to “If Winter
Comes,” M-G-M's richly effective
adaptation of A. S. M. Hutchinson's
novel of a man whose code of
I honor forces him to take the blame
j lor another man's mis-conduct —
even though it means villificattoi,
at the hands of his wife, employei
and neighbors.
Four of the year’s outstandlnt
performances are compressed in this
gripping picture, which will be
show'll today and Wednesday at
I the Gross 20th Century Theatre.
Deborah Kerr, the English actress
i is the woman whose fine sensibili
i ties prevent her from renouncing ai
antipathetic husband for nn ideal
I istlf writer.
| Walter Pidgeon as the writer
j caught up in a web of incriminatim
j circumstances when he befriend
| Effie Bright,- a young girl who ha
! gotten herself into trouble, turn
i in the most forceful and dramatii
I characterization of his entire career
j while Angela Landsbury, as hi:
i pretty, jealous and misunderstand
j ing wife, adds another brilliant por
trait to her gallery of “heavies.”
Last, but far from least, is the
work of Janet Leigh, who brings tc
the ro'e of the ill-fnted Effie Bright
j a compassion and tenderness that
I is nothing less than remarkable ii
| a player of so limited experience.
