winter is offered by scientific poll

paper showed that the average family

and meat weekly than it did in Dec
ember, 1945, or about 35 per cent over
the previous figure.
The Post found the average family
spent $1548 for food last winter and
that during August, 1916 it spent
$2063 for identical purchases.
Breaking the figures down on the
basis of weekly expenditures by fam

THE VERY THOUGHT OF YOU" SHOWING
 AT zOTH CENTURY

Think you've got family trouble? Wait until you see what Dennis Morgan is up against in the new Warmers comedy hit, The Very Thought of You at the 20th Gen. tury tonight for the last times.
 Morgan plays soldier, back home from the Aleutians on brief furlough before shipping out again. In Pasadena he meets Eleanor Parker and is brought home for dinner. Opposition in the form of a tense, over-emotional, war-strain- ed family motivates the story.
 Also starred, besides Miss Park CT and Morgan. is Dane Clark. Faye Emerson, Henry Travers, and Beu- lah Bondi head a brilliant support ing cast. Delmer Dawes who di- reoted Destination Tokyo" worked on this film as story -collaborator and director. Franz Waxman wrote the musical score underlining the screen play.

of our great statesmen represent ing us in the Legislature as joke. The real joke in the situation is that most of the political boys in the Legislature are opposed to the bill. They believe that delegates to National Conventions and National Committeeman and Committeewo- men should be appointed by few hand picked politicians. They are the cnes who are advocating state hood for Alaska in no uncertain terms, claiming that the people of Alaska should have the right to vote for President. For my part it is more important to me to have a vote as to who shall be nominated for President than to have vote at the general election. Tn view of the fact that this bill was defeated at the regular session in l945 the thought naturally comes to mils1 that the politicians in the Legis- lature are not so much interested in votes for the people of Alaska as they are in political jobs that will be created as a result of State hood for Alaska. By their votes we shall know them. All we need do is to require every candidate for the Legislature to state how he voted on House Bill No. g, or how he stands on the bill Does he prom ise to restore these rights to the voters of Alaska if elected? The power to restore these rights is in the hands of the people of Alaska. By our votes we make our choice. Until we are capable of helping nominate a President we are cer- tainly not capable of electing one.
 It seems that some of the mem bers of the Legislature are being severely criticized because they re- sent being dictated to by our inn ported Governor of Alaska. It seems to me that if a Governor from the outside is to control our elected representatives in the Leg islature we would be just about as well off if we abolished the Legis- lature altogether. If the people we have been sending to Juneau to re- present us are not capable of en- acting legislation for the benefit of Alaskans why not try electing some who are? By their votes we shall know them.

COMMUNICATION

Editor, the Empire
 The report concerning the acti- vities of the Special Session of the Legislature by Representative AL aska Linck and published in the Fairbanks Daily News Miner on the 18th day of March was interesting Particularly interesting was her statement regarding House Bill No p introduced by Representative Maurice T. Johnson, Republican from the Fourth Division.
 Many of us remember that along in 1883, when the Democrats gain ed control of the Legislature that the part of the Direct Primary Law, giving the people of Alaska the right to elect their own Ma tional Committeeman, Committee women, Delegates and Alternates to the Republican and Democratic National Conventions, was repealed It seems that at that time the members of the Legislature were of the opinion that the voters of Alaska were not competent tC choose their own National Commit teemen and Committeewomen or to decide who should be elected tc help nominate the Republican and Democratic candidates fer Presi- dent and Vice. President of the United States.
 Representative Johnson's bill is a bill to restore these rights to the people of Alaska and according tc the report was considered by many

THIS LOVE OF OURS" FEATURED
 CAPITOL TONIGHT

This Love of Ours" opens at the Capitol tonight, starring Merle Oheron, Claude Rains and the new Hollywood find" Charles Korvin. It also introduces the school girl actress, Sue England, in one of the seascn's best fledgling performan- ces.
 This Love of Ours" is the story of a Paris actress deserted by her doctor husband when he believes her unfaithful. Their reunion a decade later, and the problem ot their daughter, who believes her mother is dead, are main keys of the powerful drama.
 Years-not months-were spent by Bruce Manning, John Klorer and Leonard Bruce in developing a screen script from the Pirandello play because of the delicacy re- quired in handling some passages. Locales are Paris, Chicago and Pasadena.
 Miss Oberon's costumes, design ed by Travis Banton. who created her wardrobe for "A Song To Re- member and Night in Paradise, ? are in keeping with her three en- vironments-wife of a French physi- elan, pianist in cheap nightclub, ard spouse of 9. famed pathologist.
 The short added feature is the story of the G. I. Bill of Rights en- titled Honorable Discharge" of the This Is America series.
