SAILORS SHUN
WAR TRADE

Determination of American sea-
men to protect their lives from
dangers Of a war in which they
are not involved, appeared likely
last night to become an import
ant aid to the Government in dis
couraging shipment Of war mate
rails to Italy and Ethiopia.
This possibility was raised when
the crew Of the freighter Oregon,
loaded with aviation gasoline re-
portedly bound for Italian Somali.
land via the Orient, refused to
ship the vessel from San Pedro,
Calf,
They acted after first inquir-
ing from Government officials
whether their safety could be
guaranteed by the United States
if they handled the vessel, and
received a message from Secretary
of State Cordell Hull saying:
"If gasoline mentioned is in
fact destined to an Italian pos
session, no guarantee Of safety Of
the crew can be given"
At first inclined to sail the
freighter under the promise OF
war bonuses" the Seamen de-
cided this would appear too "mer.
cenary." The message from Hull
convinced them.

with a magazine or several news

Mrs. Thomas Lepak, from Gne-

Youngsters pressed their noses
to the panes, eager to go, thrilled
by the prospect of adventure.
Young men and women, not mar

were happy. But the middle-aged
couples with children did not
smile. Soberly they faced the fu-

promise of a livelihood.

81 FAMILIES ON
WAY TO ALASKA
and new HOMES
Honeymoon for One Couple;
First Time Away From
State for Others

Goodbye to Minnesota!
Perhaps for years, perhaps for
ever, CT farm families bade fare
we'll Friday afternoon to the state
that had been their home.
They entrained in st. Paul for
San Francisco, there to sail for
Alaska, where the FERA offers
them new farmsteads in a coloni-
cation project in the Matanuska
valley.
Many never had been out of
Minnesota. 1t had been their
birthplace, its soil had given them
a living and then, in years of ad-
versity, had taken it away. They
look for a new beginning in Alas
ka.
Like a European immigration
scene of the last century was the
departure from the Union depot.
Tears were shed and there was
reason to weep, for old folk were
seeing their children and their
children's children whom they new
er expected to see again.
A thousand relatives and friends
congregated in the station for the
last embrace and last words with
the $50 who went.
Burdened with baggage and
huge rolls of bedding, the 2S0
boarded seven day-coaches to find
seats that were to be their chairs
by day and their beds by night.
The trip is providing one couple
a free honeymoon, paid for by
Uncle Sam.

Miss Catherine Scarlet, 26, both
of Little Fork, were married We'd

for the trip" the bride observed,
"that we hardly had time to get

In St. Paul she wore her we'd

gown, tied with bows at the
shoulders, and gold earrings and
a gold bead necklace. Formerly
primary school teacher at the
Nett lake Indian reservation, she
quit her job to marry and go to
Alaska.
Mr.. Lennon, bronzed and rug
ged, hopes to engage in diversified
farming. Unmarried, he could not
have been eligible for farmstead
in the FERA colonization pro-
ject. Married, he is.
Accompanying them are their
brother and sister-in-law, George

Within the past few weeks a good many women have wanted to know how to care for the perma- nents they got during the holidays. The majority complain of dryness and 0 few say that their hair Is un- manageable now. All want healthy scalps and smooth coiffures.
 A dry condition Is fairly easy to remedy. You need hot oil sham poosI of course, and. since you don't want to brush out your finger waves, you. should massage your scalp with your fingertips every night before you go to bed.
 Sit beside a fairly low table, putting your elbows on it and rest" ing your head in your. hands. Place fingeptips flat against the scalp and try to move 1t backward and forward as well ag in tiny circles. Remember that. your scaip--rot fingers--should move.
