CARL sTOECKEL REPORTS ON MOUNTAIN HIKE
 MADE BY BOY SCOUTS
By Carl stoecke.

On July 17th Martin Newman and Lynn Schwartz, two local Boy Scouts, and l left Wrangell ana. were driven by Mrs. Schwartz to the Rainbow Falls trail lbetween miles and 3 out the highway. ;. We started on the trail at 12:30. D. m We now had to depend on cur own physical resources. In 20| minutes we arrived at the falls, one of the beauty spots in the yi- einity of Wrangell Martin took out his moving picture camera and took a series of pictures of that pretty place. After a brief rest We continued on our way. l will men ton here that this was the boys first experience in mountain climb ing.
 From now on there were no more trails We had to battle our way through different varieties or brush, including the ever obnox. ious devil clubs We had to cross wind falls and walk on fallen logs or crawl underneath them. For tho first two hours the terrain was hardly eleyating, the incline rathe. slight Toward three o'clock We hit the big timber and We made better altitude. The day had beeh pretty one, a few fleecy clouds added to the charm of the sky. A round six o'clock we got above the tall timber. At 2000 feet we oh served an abundance of cedar trees up to two feet in thickness.
 We could now see the outline ol the peak. We were walking on charming meadows. The highest point of the summit was perhaps half a mile away and about sou | feet higher than our present loca. ton. At seven o'clock sharp We made the 27OO-foot peak. Our time was six hours since leaving the Rainbow Falls.
 The panorama from the top mocks description. The meadows " ere dotted with wild flowers anu an occasional clump of dwarf trees Iup to five feet high. The boys wh3 were slowing down somewhat be- fore reaching the summit were now, all of sudden, so full or pep that they had to plunge into enc of the numerous pools I fol lowed their example and after that We built a fire and later on da yOu"ed a portion of our yictuals. A bout ten o'clock we pulled in foI a nights rest.
 Soon the stars were shining over our heads, but a horde of mos. quitos must have been aware ot our presence and with their char scteristic tenacity they gave Us battle. In the encounter We lost some of -" slumber. Finally we capitulated by covering ourselves up all over and thus avoiding the little beasts.
 The next morning was beautifu; We could see the outlines of all 1 the fine peaks on Etolin ana Prince of Wales Islands also the high snow-cappcd range Up the Stikine River. Wrangell was hid. den from view, but the Institute was in plain sight After Martin l took many more movies and also a 1 few snapshots with another cam era, We spied a lily pond about thousand feet below us on a mus keg plateau and after a breakfast we proceeded uown hill and got there.
 The slopes down to the lake were very slippery and We haL many spill before we finally ar. rived after an hour of sliding ana tumbling. The pond is about
 feet wide and ornamented with

BARTLETT CALLS
 RESEARCH LEGISLATION
 BY CONGRESS VICIOUS

WASHINGTON - Delegate D. L. Bartlett of Alaska denounced this week as a vicious piece of legls lation" the pending authorization of S144,940 for agriculture re, search in the Territory with the provision that the Agriculture De partment take over the work now done by the University of Alaska
 The compromise 1948 agricul- ture appropriations bill carries the money and says the Department shall take over the work done by the University and any unexpend ed funds 1t now has on hand.
 That money includes Federal an1 Territorial funds appropriated rol the agriculture station operated for the Territory by the University Cf Alaska, Bartlett said
 The House agreed to the confer ence report last Friday and tho Senate debated it Tuesday.
 Vicious Legislation
 T think this is one of the most vicious pieces of legislation affect ing Alaska which has ever been passed by the Congress of tne United States" Bartlett said in . statement. Ut is an abrogation of home rule and local responsibiI- ity."
 "The University of Alaska is 4 land grant college in exactly tno same sense as are similar instfta tions in the United States propei and all of us know that Congres $ would never seek ito move in sucn a fashion concerning land gram colleges in the states.
 Not only does this bill diyest the authorities of the University 'of Alaska of all control with res pect to the agriculture research program but it high-handedly as- serts the supreme authority of the Congress over the Territory D. seeking to take out of the Terri tOrial treasury funds appropriated by the Territorial legislature Tor agriculture research at the Uni versity and give this money to the Secretary of Agriculture for ex penditure.
 "Is Fantastic"
 Ut is fantastic that such a pro. pOsal should ever have been made =. the language which finally appears in the bill is proof enough that politically the Territory is ab- solutely at the mercy of any man or small group of men in Congress determined to work his or its will"
 Bartlett said that the conferees statement that the action does not reflect any intention to modify or depart from the policy of agricul- ture research through grants to the states and territories or to in- itiate a policy of taking over state experiment stations 'is extremely puzzling because that is just what this bill does"

May Get Less Money
For 1917 livestock

y. S. farmers on March first had
plans to plant little bigger acre
age of the principal crops than the
1916 acreage; but the paintings this
this year will be per cent below
the peak area planted in 1914 Wheat
paintings will be higher and plant
ings of feed grains will be lower
than last year.
Rural economists at Ohio State
University estimate the state 1947
corn paintings will be reduced /
per cent below the 1916 level, oats
will be down almost per cent, and
barley paintings will be cut IL per
cent. The cut in acreage would low
er Ohio 1947 production of feed
grains about 2 per cent below pro-
duction in 1916.
Reduced corn paintings across the
nation reflect the above average
amounts of old corn in storage and
of the national decrease in livestock
numbers. Even with the expected
reduction of 2.7 per cent in the ma
tional corn acreage, the 1947 plant
ings will produce about 3,0000000OO
bushels with normal weather.
Ohio farmers report intentions to
plant 9 per cent fewer acres of po-
tatoes than in 1946, and the reduc-
ton in the national potato acreage
is expected to be II per cent. High
potato yields made possible by more
compete control of insect pests will
counteraCt some of the reduction in
acreage when total bushels are
measured.
Buckeye growers turn away from
the national trend in soybean plant
ings by saying the acreage in this
state will be down per cent from
1916 although U. S. paintings are
expected to be 6 per cent higher
this year than in 1916. Flax pro-
ducers in the U. S. say they will
increase flax acreage 70 per cent
over 1916.

policy to check up on your own stat
tus when you reach 65 if for no
other reason than to receive advice
on the course you should take as
well as having answered any ques-
tion a person may have in regard
to his individual standing. In fact,
any person, regardless of age, work
ing under the Social Security Act,
can receive information on how his
account stands either by writing the
GAINESVILLE field office or by calling
personally when a representative is
in Caldwell.
McCauley also called attention to
the family of a wage Garner who
has died, stating that a member of
a family should let the field office
know of this fact so that a deter
mination can be made if benefits
are payable on the workers wage
credits. This should be done as
promptly as possible so that no loss
in benefits will occur in the event
that the deceased wage Garner was
insured.
The GAINESVILLE field office is now
located in the Lind Arcade building,
having recently moved from the
Postoffice building. Due to the in
crease of growth, larger quarters
were necessary in order to render
better service to the public. The Of
flee hours of the GAINESVILLE office
are from 800 a. m. to 500 p. m.
Monday through Friday.
In addition to Muskingum coun-
ty, the following counties are serv,
iced by the GAINESVILLE office: Cos.
hocton, Athens, Guernsey, Hooking
Monroe, Morgan, Noble, Perry anc
Washington. A representative from
the GAINESVILLE office will be in Cald
we'll the first Tuesday of every
other month The next visit will bt
June 8, in the Postoffice from 11:0(
to 1900 noon. He will assist appli
.cants for old-age and survivors in
surance benefits, and furnish in
formation concerning the Social Sc
curity program to beneficiaries anc
the general public.
