At the request of a number of fishermen in Alaska, the Delegate has introduced a bill to extend the benefits of the Public Health Service to fishermen.
 The provisions of the law grant ing the benefits of the Public Health Service to seamen are embraced in Title 24. Sec. l, U. s Code, which reads as follows;
 The term seaman, wherever em ployed in legislation relating to the Public Health Service, shall be held to include any person employed on board in the care, preservation, or navigation of any vessel, or in the service on board, of those engaged in such care preservation, or naVi- gation"
 These provisions of the law have been construed to be limited to doe umcnted vessels, that is, to vessels of five tons or oyer, and not to in cludc fishermen who are not neces- sariIy or principally employed in the care. preservation or naVlpatiOn of the vessel.
 In view of the fact that free med ical service and disqualification is now extended by law to CCC work CTS, to persons employed under the emergency Relief Appropriation Act of 1885, no sound reason exists why similar benefits should not be eX- tended to those who engage in the hazardous occupation of fishing. The text of the bill as introduced by the Delegate reads as follows, the new matter not existing in present law being underlined:
 That section 3 of the Act of March 3, 1875, entitled An Act to promote economy and efficiency in the mar inc hospital service" (f8 Stat 485), is hereby amended to read as fol- lows:
 The term seaman, wherever em- ployed in legislation relating to the Public Health Service, shall be held to include any person employed on board in the care, preservation, or navigation of any vessel, whether the same is a vessel of five tons, or over, or less in the service on board of those engaged in such care, pte- ASerVation, or naVigatiou and sad term seaman shall also include any person operating. or employed. on board, any such vessel in fishing op- eratiOns, or in the service, on board. of those engaged in fishing opera tiOns carried on by means of such vessel"

IMMORTALS WILL
 GET SKYSCRAPER
French Academy to Install Self in One-Present
 Quarters Inadequate

Parls--(UP)-That venerable in- stitution, the French Academy, is thinking of installing itself in a skyscraper.
 The bulbous- domed Pailais Maz- arin on the banks of the Seine. in which five of the numerous acade- mics which compose the French Institute have their quarters, is proving inadequate for its task. and committee of the Forty I'm mortals has been appointed to de- eide how to improve its usefulness and how to protect it from fire.
 The committees first move was typically academic. It decided to repair ma unused stairway 50 that members of the French Academy will not have to usc tho same en- trance to tho building as ordinary acad dcmicians, who remain mortal. Tho more radical project of con- structing a skyscraper in the court. facing the Mint, in order to house all the branches of the Institute was received with less favor. Its proposer pointed out that the Mint Is considering moving, and that its building might then be added to tho skyEcraper.
 Perhaps the problem of financ. ing the new building had some. thing to do with tho disfavor witl which the proposal was greeted The Academy is not oyerburdenec l with available funds.

proportion as to the number of voters, both tn ofiice and employ. ment, and Improvements, as given other districts. This may seem out of reasoning. but we are not asking for anything more than we are en- titled to.
 In the past years, political par- ties, both democrat and republican, have abused the rights of the peo- pie by building up political ma chimes which if carried out pro- perly would not look bad in the face of the people, but those who have been selected to represent the people of the districts were never meant to represent tn pople but wre hand picked by the town com mittees and instructed. How can we have representation if condi- tions remain the same. We are go- ing on record as not affiliated with any political party. We believe in standing for our rights and de- manding the kind of representation we are entitled to. Now, how can we protect these rights which each of us possess. By organization and being a good loyal member. This isnot meant as a warning to any party, but we just want to point out that we propose to control our districts and not the paries."

IFOREMEN TO FORM
 SAFETY COUNCIL
Decision Reached Follow ing Lecture By Dr Stack
 Last Evening

Plans for the ultimate forma- ton of a safety council in Wa terbury were formulated last night at the YMCA by the Industrial F .remen's club after the 200 mem bers present had heard a lecture on safety by Dr Herbert J. Stack. Dr Stack, educational director Of the National Bureau of Casualty and Surety Underwriters. advised that careful study of accident pre- ventions be made in this city.
 Following Dr Stacks talk, the members voted to have President William Caligan name a commit- tee to confer with city officials on plans for beginning lengthy safety campaign in Waterbury. It ia expected that after the commit tee organizes a campaign in CO., operation with the city there will be steaps taken to have the coun- ell here become affiliated with the National Safety Council.
 Dr Stack declared that a per- manent safety campaign would bring about a reductio min number and seriousness of accidents In the Waterbury area. He advised the formation of educational programs in the schools and outside, forma- ton of schoolboy patrols, safety publicity, and even the teaching of goo ddriving.

BLACK GOLD TO
 HELP NEBRASKA
Continued Industrial Im-
 prOvement Results in "Wildcatting" for Oil

Lincoln, Neb (UP)-Continued
 industrial improvement is certain to result in extensive "wildcatting" for oil in Nebraska, according to
 Dr George F. Condra. head of the Department of Conservation nt
 Nebraska University.
 Two wells are being drilled this
 spring In widely separated sections of the state, and prosDectors Tor
 major oil companies have found indications so optimistic that more than 100000 acres of Nebraska land have been leased. New interest in prospects Of
 "black gold" in this strictly agri- cultural region was aroused fol- lowing severe earthquakes this year-the first tremblors of any consequence in nearly half a cen-
 tury. Condra explains that these dis turbances of the earth have been of a nature to force toward the surface any deposits of gas and oil located within the environs of the
 state. :, He believes that if industrial consumption of existing oil and gas supplies continues at its pres ent rate, or is accelerated by re-.
 viving business conditions. gradual depletion of existing fields will
 bring pressure for discovery and
 exploitation of new oil-bearing re- gions.
 All prospectors in this state have made reports, according to Condra, which give every indica- ton that the substrata does contain oil and gas.

BY NEELY TURNER Assistant Entomogologist, Conn. Agricultural Experiment Station,
 New Haven

The entire eastern part of the United States is undergoing a widespread outbreak of termites. In Connecticut the present epi- deinic is by far the most serious on record. Reports to the Experiment Station at New Haven average about one day. and the injury varies from q slight infestation in a porch to severe infestations in 6 semi-public building requiring an expenditure of thousands of dol- lars for repairs and adequate pro- lection.
 There Is no way of judging whe- ther or not termites will continue to increase in abundance, but if the present level does continue a great many houses in the east will require expensive repairs. Certain ly new buildings should be erected termite-proof.
 During the past two weeks sta- ton entomologists have investigat- ed infested buildings in Stamford, Greenwich, Bridgeport. Newton, Westport, West Haven, Hartford. Manchester, Waterbury, Easton, New Haven, Norwich, Milford, Wallingford and Norwalk. In one place the wood under the floor boards had been 50 eaten away that a man had put his foot through the floor in walking over 1t. Tn another, the joists of the building had ben hollowed out so that a series of props had to be placed in the cellar to keep the house from collapse.
 In response to numerous letters and telephone calls, the station is preparing a bulletin on termites and termite control in Connecticut that will be published in May. Meanwhile the following informa- CTS.
 The Insects
 Termites are small underground | insects about IA inches long that live in highly soclallzed colonies in moist soil. The adult males and fe- males are black, but the workers that obtain food for the colony and damage houses are white, Termites live on wood. Frequently the white | workers may be seen scurrying around when 6 dead log Is turned over in a woodland place. Termites gain access to buildings through direct contact between wood and ssoil. through cracks in foundations which allow hidden access to wood, or through tubes built on the foundation walls. Once in the house. they begin to hollow out beams or woodwork, making frequent return trips to the soil for moisture. If they are cut off from ' water. they die very quickly. How ever, killing one group of workers by blocking their contact with the
 soil will not insure house against
 a second invasion from the same colony.
 l How to Look For Termltes l Home owners may be able to determine whether or not termitea are damaging their property by taking the following steps: During the spring months. watch for black bodied. winged males and females in or near your house. At this time colonies frequently send

out such swarms which may be mistaken for winged ants. On find- ing insects of the kind, collect a few specimens and send them in a tin or cardboard box to the Ex- pertinent Station at New Haven for Identification. Termite flights do not always occur in infested build ings, but frequently they are the first indication of termite presence.
 The next step is to examine the basement walls and sills in search of light-brown, earth-like tubes. These are covered runways built by the workers over Instructions between soil and wood. They are about IA inch in diameter and either round or oval in cross sec- tion. Such tubes are suM cient evidence that a house is infested. Examination of wooden posts and stakes in the ground around the house will show whether or not termites are very abundant.
 Thirdly, the home owner should examine wooden steps, porches, or other structures where wood Is in contact with the ground. If the wod has been eaten out or Is hol- low, termites may be present.
