Juneau's First War
Dead from Korea
Home for Burial
A gray overcast sky from which
snow fell almost steadily marked
the homecoming last night of Joe I
Rogers, the first Juneau soldier
killed in the Korean war.
His body arrived on the Baranoi.
As the ship slowly swung into her
dock, the honor guard from the
208th Infantry Battalion of the1
Alaska National Guard came to at- i
tention. Just as the flag-draped
casket swung over the side of the
ship to be lowered to the dock, the
honor guard saluted and bugler
Walter Smith sounded "To the Col
ors.”
Waiting on the dock were rela
tives and friends of the soldier
killed by enemy action July 28 at
the Korean front. Standing with
the relatives was Capt. Walter A.
Soboleff, chaplain for the 208th
Battalion.
Pallbearers from the Veterans of
Foreign Wars and American Legion
posts carried the remain of Ju
neau’s first Korean dead to the
waiting hearse. From the VFW
were Les Ricker, Ward Garrett, El
don Taylor, Fred Dawley, James
Brunette, James Fennell and Louis
Bowers. The American Legion was
represented by Homer Nordling and
William Clark.
Leading the procession to the
Carter Mortuary was a police es
cort. Following the police car was
the VFW color guard. The honor |
guard marched on both sides of the
hearse in measured step. Immedi
ately following the hearse were
members of the VFW and Legion.
Cars containing relatives and
friends of Joe Rogers followed the
veterans’ organizations.
Funeral services will be announc
ed later.
First Eskimo
Recruits Join
Canadian Army
EDMONTON, Alta., Dec. B—(A>)—
Two Eskimos arrived here by plane
today for induction into the Can
adian army. They are the army’s
first Eskimo recruits.
The youths, Ralph Sakvoayoak,
28, and Tony Dillon, 19, came from
Tuktayaktuk, Northwest Territory,
near Aklavik at the mouth of the
Mackenzie River.
They were interested in an army
carrer by Cannon Colin Montgomery
brother of Field Marshal Bernard
Montgomery, who directs the Ang
lican Mission at Aklavik. The Esk
imos were schooled at the mission
and both speak English.
Army officials said the youths
probably would be in uniform by
Friday.
They were dressed for 33-degree
below weather when they arrived in
Calgary and found the temperature
was a balmy 20 above. It was 33
below when the plane left Aklavik
yesterday morning.
The National Geographic Society
says many of the Portuguese who
settled in New England fishing cit
ies came from the Azores.
Korea Truce
Talks Slowed
As Reds Stall
MUNSAN, Korea, Dec. 5—Vf)—1
Allied negotiators asked questions
for two hours and a half at an
Alice-in-Wonaerland sort of Kor
ean truce session today—and got the
answer to just one question.
The Reds defined what they
meant by a neutral country and
gave examples: Communist Czech
oslovakia and Poland, or non-Com
ir.unist Switzerland, Sweden and
Denmark.
The Communists want neutral
teams to supervise any truce reach
ed, and only at “ports of entry.”
Allied subcommitteemen at Pan
munjom asked 30 times what the
Reds meant by “ports of entry.”
They didn’t get an answer; the
Reds said they already had ans
wered clearly.
Subcommitteemen scheduled an
other meeting for 11 a.m. Thurs
day (6 pm. Wednesday PST) to
try again. It will be their third
such session. Their job is to work
out means of making a cease-fire
effective and supervising an arm
istice.
As the Wednesday meeting ad
journed a Tokyo broadcast by the
“Voice of the United Nations
Command” accused Communist
negotiators of using double talk
to gain political objectives through
the back door.
The broadcast said the Red pro
posal to ban all troop replacements
would have the effect of removing
foreign troops from Korea. This
was one of the Reds’ first political
demands. Under the Red plain
troops leaving for sickness, injury,
rotation or expired enlistment could
not be replaced.
The broadcast al$o charged the
Communists “are more interested
in building airstrips for war than
In rebuilding the country for peace.”
