4 NAVSTA Personnel Cited at Inspection
CHIEF COMMENDED—Chief Storekeeper Eugene P. Ducharme is
commended by Capt. N. R. Lincoln, Jr., Commanding Officer, for
his selection as Chief of the Month. The letter of commendation
stressed Ducharme’s devotion to duty while acting as Commissary
Division Officer during that officer’s illness during August, duties
he assumed in addition to his own. During this time, the Chief
continued conducting classes in advancement which he had organized
and was teaching after hours before. “This exacting schedule did
not prevent you from continual active participation in local com
munity affairs,” the letter read. “As Cub Scout Registrar and ‘Den
II)ad’ you are contributing to the welfare of your community,” it
continued, calling his conduct '‘outstanding” and “in keeping with
the highest traditions of the Navy.” U. S. Navy photo

You cannot bring about prosperity
by discouraging thrift.
You cannot strengthen the weak
by weakening the strong.
You cannot help the wage earner
by pulling down the wage payer.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man
by encouraging class hatred.
You cannot help the poor
by discouraging the rich.
You cannot establish sound security
by spending more than you earn.
You cannot build character and courage
by taking away man’s initiative
and independence.
You cannot help men permanently by doing
for them what they could and should do
for themselves.

Manager, and “as supervisor of the
Kodiak Bear you have initiated
editorials on Leadership, Navy

ing Man’s Code and Know Your
Government,” the citation read.

Citizenship
“A special day like Citizenship
Day, which will be observed Sat
urday, September 17, is necessary
as a reminder to reconsider our
benefits and duties as citizens.”
So said Mike Rose, president of
the Anchorage Bar Association,
who through fate of birth and par
entage, is a citizen of two countries.
He was born in France of Ameri
can parentage, and due to the laws
of the two countries, is a citizen
of both.
Rose continued: “We tend to
forget that good citizenship con
sists in small duties -and large
privileges. It is voting on election
day—a small thing. It is also in
forming ourselves on the qualifi
cations of candidates for public
office.
"“It fs making ourselves inorf
familiar with the history of our
country through reading such in
struments of democracy as the
Declaration of Independence.”
These are small things, but they
help develop a consciousness of
citizenship that otherwise we will
not acquire.
Rose made a significant state
ment when he said: “Citizenship
can be expressed in many ways. It
is necessary to express it, other
wise it is in danger.”
Rose urged Alaska groups to
plan special observances for Citi
zenship Day—if nothing else—the
display of the flag.
