l946 Plans Call
For Increase
In Pulp Planting

A further increase of nearly
100000 acres in 1916 crop goals,
recently approved by Secretary of
Agriculture Clinton Anderson,
was pointed to this week by the
Victory Pulpwood Committee as
evidence of the enlarged national
demand that will be made this
year for paper, paperboard and
other pulpwood products.
The new and final goal set by
the Department of Agriculture
calls for 296, 001 900 acres to be
planted with various cultivated
crops. This compares with an
earlier tentative figure for 1916
of 295, 087 800 acres. and with
286, 1871, SOC. acres planted last
year.
with demands for food hold
ing at peak levels" the commit
tee declared ''the additional
pulpwood needed just to supply
the cartons, containers and other
forms OF packing necessary 10

| produce will soar into thousands
of cords.
And this does not take into
account the greatly expanded

, products, nor does it take into ac-
4; count the growing use of pulp
| wood in the manufacture of ray
on staple fiber textiles and plas-
tics" the committee said.
The upward crop revisions are
based on recommendations made
| by state and local farm officials
and farm organizations.
Farmers have pointed the way
toward a full, balanced produc-
tion," MI. Anderson was quoted
as saying. "They are ready to do
their part in using the great pro-
ductive capacity of America to
achieve the high standard of liv-
ing of which we are capable"

Shore Theatre InstdUs
Last Word In Seats

After weeks of deliberations and inspection the
Shore Amusemcnts chose for its SHORE THEATRE
the nationally known American Seating Company
commodore" model seat, which features a pleasing
overall design. The color combination of the entire
chair planned by first rate artists skilled in their
trade The lines of the entire chair are clean and sweep
ing There useless protuberences to act as eve
sores to catch clothing dirt The very appearance
of the Commodore chair is relaxing and restfu. The
chair is designed that sits in, and not on it, The
firm yielding seat, the padded back which is shaped to
fit the body, the correct posture relationship of the back
to the seat and the correct height of the seat itself all
lend themselves to posture perfect comfort that the
American Seating Company is proud to claim for its
chairs alone
The seat conceals the mechanism which makes the
seat self-raising The hinges also hidden within
the pan of the seat. This eliminates all danger of
pnched fingers and torn clothing due to exposed hinge
mechanism.
The type of spring used is of Il radical new design.
1t consists of five arches of heavy spring wire stretched
the seat from side to side
The seat is set at predetermined height from the
floor, height which is neither too high too low
but is correct for the average person
All materials and designs are thoroughly tested
in the American Seating Company laboratories before
they are allowed to be used in its chairs
A visit to the SHORE THEATRE will prove the
rest and relaxation receives from his chair.

House to consideration Of the bill on the Consent Calendar. There fore, ruling will have to be ob- tained from the Rules Committee before there is further considera- tion of the measure. Objection to its passage has been made both within and without Alaska. The objections from the States came from Seattle and Tacoma, and they, like those in Alaska, stressed opposition to government in busi- ness.
 While that objection certainly is dcbatable, the hard fact in this case. is that government operation offered a possible solution to the most pressing problem before us today and, in my judgment, the al- formative suggestions that have been made fail by a wide margin to provide solution" Delegate Bartlett continued.
 Tt is interesting to note that some of those most violently oppos- ed to government intervention be- cause of interference with business were clamoring not long since for government subsidies in the con- struction of ships for the Alaska trade. Of course, such subsidies would have meant taking money out of the pockets of taxpayers of the nation for the benefit of AL aska, and that is just what The Alaska Railroad bill would have done, and justifiably so, I believe, in furthering the development of Alaska"

Brings Serious Note to Studies
By Jessie Font Evons

There Is something new in the
classrooms and on the campus of
the George washington University,
and because of 1t a new note has
crept into the conversations Of It's
various student clubs. It is due to
the more than 1900 service veterans,
including 100 women, who are bring
ing an emphatic note of seriousness
to the business Of education.
They come from all over the
United States, and their range is
from buck private to major gen.
erals. Many Of them are still wear
ing their uniforms with insignias
and decorations. But there is no
mistaking the service background of
those who have gone back to civilian
clothes. Their erect, military car
riage and the swinging cadence of
their walk is self-evident, even If
one did not glimpse their discharge
buttons.
Their average age Is approx
imately 81 years. Forty per cent of
them are married, and 10 per cent
have children to support while they
get their college educations. Nat
urally they have no time for the
usual long summer vacation. Instead,
they are booked up for the uni
versity's summer sessions In order
to complete their courses sooner.
BY far the greater number have
never been to college. Some, by
