PROPOSED CALENDAR
CHANGE BE DISCUSSED
7Th-DAY ADVENTIST

At the regular IL o'clock service
in the Seventh-Day A Nv IN i t
Church on Saturday, study will be
given to the proposed calendar
change. AS there is a widespread
movement in the world today, there
arises questions, would the pro-
posed change have any effect upon
the days set aside for worship, or
is it change that only business
men need to study; would it eff
feet the weekly cycle as has always
been known and when, and how,
would the change, if adopted, go
into effect? These are some of the
questions that will be considered in
tomorrow's meeting.

IMMUNIzATl0NS FOR
SCHOOL, CHILDREN AT
HEALTH CLINIC MEET

me regular monthly clinic for
immunization against smallpox and
diphtheria will be held Wednesday
August 16, at 10 a. m, in the Jul
neau Health Center, Territorial
Building, with DR.. c. c. Carter in
charge, it was announced today.
In addition to the immunization
for infants, opportunity will be
given children entering school this
fall to have reinforcement immuni-
cations. 1t is recommended that
vaccination for smallpox be done
before the child is year old, and
repeated again before entrance to
school. The reaction to the second
vaccination is ordinarily very mild
and does not leave scar but
serves to indicate the immunity the
person has developed. 1t is also
recommended that every infant re-
ceive two doses of toxoid after nine
months of age, and one reinforcing
dose before entering school.

Decentralized Socialism
(New York Times


 The Senate version of the surplus disposal bill provides that no Government agency shall manu- fracture or produce articles with Government-owned plants in competition with private industry This is sound principle The bills restrictions on Govern ment operation, however apply only to the Federal Government They should apply to the use of these properties by State and local governments as well There one section of the Senate bill however which would encourage such competition by States and political subdivisions This is the section which per mts them to acquire these surplus properties at 50 per cent of the sale less value 30 per cent Of the price offered by the highest bidder whichever is lower In other words, whether the private bid IS adequate or inadequate local community may acquire the property at half the private bid or lower
 The net effect of this provision could easily be to create series of so-called "yardsticks' throughout the country But Government yardsticks of this type tend to be less than thrtysix inches in length. If municipalities acquire properties at hail price, they can begin competing with private industry on an unequal basis Such a development would lead to the very evils presumably to be avoided by the re- sricton placed competitive operations by the Fed eral Government. Instead of giving local com munites a preferred position in the acquisition of surplus war properties they should, anything, b2 placed in a less favored position, particularly in connection with plant and equipment which can be used to compete with private industry It is foolish to encourage private enterprise in clause o the bill and to discriminate against it in another The House bill did not contain this 50 per cent provision. It should be rejected by the conference committee

DEWEY AND THE PRESS

Unlike President Roosevelt, who frequently delights in clashing with newsmen, Governor Dewey goes out of his way to stroke the fur of the Press
 Whenever a new reporter joins the Dewey special train, the Gov ernor is tipped off by his alert public relations staff and makes a special point of greeting him. Even when Dewey has not previously met the neWsman, he will surprise his conference by calling the new conner by name.
 The other day. on Dewey's barn storming trip, caustic Paul Ward of the Baltimore Sun joined the Dewey train. At the next press conference, Ward took rather remote position on the left. Dewey, apparently informed in advance that Ward had joined the train, greeted him as follows. Well, MT. Ward, glad to see you But what are you doing way over there in the left-field bleachers?"
 Out of the corner of his mouth, but loud enough so everyone could hear, Ward replied I'm here to catch foul balls"

 Hull was trying to explain his policy of secrecy during the Dunn barton Oaks world security confer ence, and told how, years ago, when he was a member of Congress, he and his colleagues on the Ways and Means Committee put sugar on the tariff free list.

 However" he said when reached the hotel that night, a reporter came up to me and said so you put sugar on the free list, eh'?"

 The collections were made under the name of the New Jersey State Republican League" and the Re publican Citizens Committee" but the men who promoted these high sounding organizations and raised so much money from Congressman Thomas constituents were George Beihl, who has boasted that he once wrote publicly for the Bund, and Dixie" Anger, an intimate of Bund counsel Wilbur Keegan and of the Bund's New Jersey gauleiter, Aug ust Klapprodt.
 Senator Ferguson, former one man grand jury in Detroit, didn't let the fact that he was investigat- ing Republicans sway his impar- tiality He was particularly indig- nant over a booklet of crude paro- dies on American hymns and folk songs for which Anzer had written anti administration lyrics. Among them was a COP campaign song to the tune of Deutschland uber AlleS.'
 NOTE-The Dies Committee has always denied charges that it didn't want to uncover Nazi activities. Yet. when Fritz Kuhn testified be- fore the committee four years ago and admitted knowing George Beihl, director of New Jerseys State Republican League, Congress man Thomas, a member of the committee, made no move to pro- tect his Republican constituents.

 British diplomatic sleuths have concluded confidentially that FDR wanted Phillips letter published, in order to give him a better bargain ing position with Churchill They figure that Rooseyelt's position re- garding India is now strengthened, that he can point to an aroused U. s. public opinion as to British delays in India and so demand from Churchill a house cleaning of the entire Indian situation.
 That is the way European di- plomacy frequently works, so the British think American diplomacy works the same way.

One of the reddest faces on Capitol Hill is that of reactionary Representative Parnell Thomas of New Jersey, chief COP member of the Dies Committee. For several years he has been charged with the duty of Investigating un-Am- erican activities, but has spent his time largely prosecuting ex-pro- fessors and liberals in the Govern ment who once were connected with progressive and democratic or ganizations
 It took another Republican, forth right, fair minded Senator Homer Ferguson of Michigan really to un- cover un-American activities which Congressman Thomas should have discovered long ago. For they were in Thomas own backyard-in fact, in his own district in New Jersey.

Do you have poor digestion? Do you feel headachy after eating? Do you get sour or upset easily? Do you feel tired-listIess!

Do you feel headachy and upset due to poorly digested food? To feel cheerful and happy again your food must be digested properly.
 Each day, Nature must produce about two pints of a vital digestive juice to help digest your food. If Nature fails, your food may remain undigested- leaving you headachy and irritable.
 Therefore, you must increase the flow of this digestive juice. Carter's Little Liver Pills increase this flow quickly - often in as little as 30 minutes. And, you're on the road to feeling better.
 Don't depend on artificial aids to eounteract indigestion when Carter's Little Liver Pills aid digestion after Ma iuge's own order. Take Carter's Little Liver Pills as directed. Get them at any drugstore. Only lQs and 25s, 6
