Wall Borders Available.
nOES your house or apartment
have painted walls which are
broad expanses of unbroken monot-
ony? Lots OF rooms have walls like
that which seem to be entirely too
bare for comfort and need something
to break it up. OF course, pictures
and other decoration like that will
help. but even then you can't have
pictures all over the place. What
the room probably needs is q border
around the top to kind Of finish on
things pleasantly.
If the ceiling is quite high 1t IS
obviously a good idea to put a touch
of color or regular design up there,
and you can now do just that with
special wallpaper borders which 70

These borders are available in q wide
variety Of colors and patterns and
will add tremendous amount to
the attractiveness OF almost any room.
So next time you are sitting down
contemplating the ceiling. or Vonder-

wonders for you

FIJI. A. RESTORING
BL|GHTED AREAS
Rehabi|itates Residential
Sections Hard Hit by
Depression.

Rehabilitation OF hundreds Of par
TALLY residential neighborhoods Is one
Of the direct results of the subdivision
review work Of the Federal Housing
Administrations Land Planning Sec
ton.
The majority Of the more than 1000
cases reviewed by the section during
the last three years have involved
neighborhoods created prior to the
depression which were allowed to 20
to seed during the long period Of
building inactivity.
Owners Of subdivisions have been
assisted in locating the causes of
blight and eliminating the defects
which made their properties undesir-
able. Hundreds Of neighborhoods
have been improved and placed in
marketable condition as a result Of
suggestions made by the Federal
Housing Administration.
Big Supply of Lots Left.
Seward H. Mott. chief OF the Land
Planning Section, points out that the
service rendered to owners of par
TALLY developed subdivisions is equal
In importance with the review of
plans for new subdivision develop
ments.
AT the end of the last period OF
great residential construction activity,
the stock OF residential building lots
on hand was estimated by many per-
sons to be sufficient to care for normal
city growth for several decades" Mr..
Mott said
During the years OF the depression
hundreds Of newly created neighbor-
hoods were allowed to deteriorate and
at the end of the period hundreds of
neighborhoods which were highly de-
sirably, when first developed, were
entirely unfit to compete with the
newer subdivisions being opened.
ITO allow these neighborhoods to
deterlorate further would have not
only been Wasteful Of land and money,
but would have endangered the value
OF all properties in the vicinity.
Therefore, wherever possible, the
Land Planning Section has attempted
to aid owners of such subdivisions to
Improve them. The program has been
highly successful"
Recommendations Varied.
Types of improvements recon-
manded by the section to property
owners varied in each instance, Mr..
Mott said. In some cases the only
change necessary was in the character
OF the zoning and deed restrictions
blanketing the project. In others it
was necessary to change street lay
outs, to demolish existing structures
which detracted from the appearance
OF the neighborhood, or to place the
tax structure Of the development on
o stable basis.

 BrOadcasting Stati0n-Active support of a local broadcasting station as an aid to air-naviga- ton and for the purpose of sup plying outlying communities with news, pleasure and education.
 Reindeer-A plan to supply In terior Alaska with an adequate supply of reindeer meat the year around at prices which will make its use an economy for the con- sumer.
 Some of the foregoing sugges- tions are subject to variations and adjustments in accordance with local conditions but it will be found upon investigation that they are valid and merit early action.
 For instance, the formation of non-profit-development corpora tion to aid prospectors may not be deemzid within the range of possibility. but the proposal should at least form the basis of legislation that will secure some systemmatic aid for promoting the prospecting and development of the enormous dormant miner al area of Alaska.
 The supplying of reindeer may be of benefit only for natives or the needy, but at that it is well to remember such population forms a large percentage of the total in Alaska.
 Other suggestions as to what Alaska needs and can do in her best interests are now in order. Let the candidates and the in- terested public now bring them forth and put them to the test. Don't Forget-the Nugget circu- lates your political ads in the outlying section without extra cost

TERRITORIAL CAMPAIGN ISSUES
Fairbanks News -Miner)

|
 The approaching Alaska pri- maries and election will bring to the fore a number of contentious issues. These will be fought out on their merits. It is to be hoped the people will be sufficiently in- formed when they go to the polls to vote on them intelligently and render a verdict in the best in- tereStS of all concerned.
 When it come to the matter of public projects, such as building of more and better airfields, high ways and communications service practically all are in accord so long as the funds are available.
 Other projects not so often call ed to public attention and which might well be sponsored in the interests of all within the terri tory, and especially this area are the following which merit favor able consideration:
 Copper R. & NV. RY.-Should be taken over by U. S. and ex- tended to serve the large copper region in that part of Alaska. It can probably be purchased at a small fraction of it's value once the Kennecott Mines are exhaust ed.
 Amending Mining Laws of AL aska-By act of Congress make the recording of annual assess ment labor a necessity to hold ground. Improve system of record ing mining claims so that ground open for relocation or location can be easily seen from the re- cords. Allowing claim owners to pay cash into a special develop ment fund instead of performing labor on the ground when desir- ed by owner. Providing a sound law for the grouping of mining claims where it is done to devel- op a mine and not merely to hold ground without assessment labor.
 Alaska Coal Sales-Erection of coal bunkers at Seward or Anch orage for the loading of coal on ships for delivery to coastal cities

of Alaska. Money for that pur- pose was appropriated by cong ress or authorized by the Secre- tary of the Interior but nothing has ever been done. Coal cannot be shipped from Seward under present conditions owing to delay in loading ships at Seward.
 Tax on Patented Land That the Territory pass laws taxing all patented mineral and placer claims and homesteads each year on nominal basis with power to sell for delinquent taxes. This to get back into circulation dormant holdings by absentee owners.
 WOrkmen's Compensation - Laws to be amended so as to give family or married man an equal chance to earn a living in Alaska with man with no de- pendents.
 Campaign for Local Labor Conducting an active campaign by this Chamber among all en- ployers in this section of Alaska to give preference in hiring lab- or to the man who lives here the year around and spends his mon ey here and showing no favors to those who migrate each win ter. Insuring the bona fide pro- spector with work each summer so that he can spend as much time as possible in the hills in the winter season.
 Formation of Development Cor pOratiOn-Formation of non-pro- fit development corporation to as- sist prospectors and others with development of mining proper ties, Aid given to be in the nat ure of loan to be repaid with interest after the property is on a paying basis. The fund to be increased from time to time as necessity requires and to be kept busy with new development as older assisted properties have re- paid their loans.

Oxford, Oct. Commissioner Of
Agriculture w. Kerr Scott told dele
gates to the State Grange convention
here today that "the North Carolina
Department of Agriculture will devote
large portion of it's time within the
next two years in seeking a stream
surate with the States industrial
growth"
A past State master of the Grange,
Commissioner Scott pledged his CO.
operation and efforts in securing
what he termed needed advancement
in our marketing work"
He said that farmers should not be
content to send their products to mar
ket in haphazard manner, declaring
that adoption and practice of APP
proved marketing methods bring the
growers definite premium"
Super markets, quick freezing
plants, additional canneries and an
increase in marketing work in gen
eral are necessary in a progressive
agricultural program" he said.
sThe farmers produce must be at
tractively packed and presented, or
'streamlined' to attract the ever-dis-
eliminating housewives eye" he adj
ed ''While farmers have lost thous-
ands of dollars by neglecting to pro-
perly prepare their produce for mar
ket, it has been definitely proven that
they could turn a loss into a profit in
many cases by following the funda-
rnentals of good marketing.
Commissioner Scott said that good
production methods have yielded
dividends. but added that "the mar
keting budget must be somewhat in
line with control and production ex-
penditures in a. ell-balanccd agfi-
cultural program" He added that APP
proximately half of one per cent of
the total money spent for crop con-
ltrol, production and for other pro-
( duction purposes is spent for mar
keting.
ITO compete with other states who
recognize the necessity for an ade-
quate marketing program, we must
invest more if we expect to derive
profits from our agricultural invest
ments," he said.

Tyson of PittsbOrO was startled to
see spider crawling on the face
of her three-year-Old daughter,
Shirley Ann. She attempted to
brush it off, but it darted into the
child's ear.
Shirley Arm was taken to Camp
hospital here, where DIR. Horton
Camp poured few drops of alcO-
hOl into her ear, stunning the spid-
er. Then he extracted it. Upon
examination, the insect proved to
be "black Widow" Most remark

she was showing no i'll effects.
