number of men and women who get yen to change mates every so often.
 After say, the third divorce, why not just start over and remarry the former husbands and wives who have grown uninteresting and have been discarded?
 Minnie, who was number one, might look pretty good after a few months or years with Susie, num- Der two, and Sadie, number three. A husband couldn't possibly re- member much about the faults of number one after coping with the idiosyncrasies of couple of other women.
 Besides, by that time all women would surely have come to seem very much the same. And a man should have become enough of a philosopher by then to say, Min nie, Susie or Sadie-what does it matter? They're all women, and all women are hard to get along with"
 TIME REVIEWS INTEREST
 
 All mothers know that if you sneak away few of child's play things of which he has grown tired and hide them for couple of months, then bring them out again, the child is as delighted as he would have been had he been given some new and shiny toy.
 So the same thing ought to work with the men and women who need change in marriage. Bring out an old wife, and she ought to be as good as a brand-new one for the playboys who never grow up.
 Such system would cut down considerably on the number of lives a much-marying man or wo- man would mess up.

KivAlENA FIELD TWO POLLING DATES; OUT
 GOES ENTIRE VOTE

While checking ever the ballot returns from this years election returns, the Canvassing Board dis covered a bit of humor, that, while not affecting the returns, will dis count the votes from the little vil- lage of Kivalina, in the Second Division. It seems that a number of Kivalina's voters were going to be away on hunting trips on the scheduled election day, October 8, so the polls were opened in the village on September l and 35 votes were cast. To make the situation legal" the polls were opened again on October also
 All this is just a shade irregular so the Canvassing Board decided that Kivalina votes would have to be discarded for this year. But since this was Kivalinas first elec- tion and since the village is made up of Eskimos, this is not consid- cred in the light of an attempt to stuff" the old ballot box. But Kivalina will know better next year

By MAX HARRELSON

NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-A United Nations sub committee wrote a new safeguard into the nebulous world arms reduction plans today by providing that any program drafted in the Security Council must be approved by special ses- sion of the 54-nation General Assembly.
 The new factor was injected in to the arms resolution as Assembly President Paul-Henri Spaak of Bel giun announced he was prepared to stay in New York until Christ mas 1948" if necessary to break the stalemate over the arms reduction program and troop census.
 Spaak had said yesterday he would sail for home Saturday re- gardless of whether the Assembly had finished its business.
 Secretary Of State James F. Byrnes was reported ready to in- tervene in the discussions for the first time but probably not be- fore tomorrow

PLANE .N CRASH ON
 MOUNTA
Missing Marine Corps Transport Hif Slopes of
 Rainier, Is Belief

SEATTLE, Dec. 1z.-The Marine Corps transport plane missing since Tuesday night with g men aboard is believed to have crashed on the south slopes of Mount Rainier
 Coast Guard officer, Lieutenant Commander R. M Finley says that by checking the height of peaks it passed, it has been decided that the plane should be on Nisqually Gla- cier, somewhere above 5000 feet.
 All reports of rangers and var ious people who heard plane over head Tuesday afternoon have been consolidated and no reports were made Of 8 plane north of the mountain. The last report of g plane being heard that evening came from ranger at Paradise Valley, about a half mile east of the Glacier.
 Commander Finley said an air search of the mountain slopes to- day is impossible, but he said he is going with rangers to Paradise Valley at the $500 foot elevation to be ready to continue the search vixen the weather clears
 The weather on the mountain was said to be very thick Tuesday when the Seattle bound transport radiced it's last position report to the Toledo range station about 40 miles southwest of Mount Rainier
 Flooded streams and washed out bridges hampered Coast Guard and Army search parties in their efforts to comb a 50-square mile area i'm mediately south of lofty Mount Rainier, which is believed to hold the fate of g men missing since Tuesday aboard a Marine Corps transport plane.
 The National Park service office at Longmire, reported goal of the rapidly-shifting hunt, said none of the searchers had arrived there during the night although tEey were expected during today. Long mire is near the toot of the 14,408- foot mountain, where an unidenti- fled plane was reported to have been heard late Tuesday afternoon about the time the missing plane would have been in the area.
 Coast Guard spokesmen in Seattle said their communications car at Eatonville, midway between Tacoma and the mountain, reported the ad- vance party was having difficulty moving into the area because of flooded streams which had swept out several bridges.
