Three Safe In Plane Crash
 Near Fairbanks

FAIRBANKS, (P)-Pilot Elmer Nicholson radioed late Saturday his trimotor Stinson was demol- ished and was a complete wash out" after a crash landing near Nenana, 50l miles south of here. but that he and his two passengers were uninjured. His message said they were able to unreel the radio antenna and communicate with the aeronautical radio station here. Pilots Jim Dodson and Eddie Steger left later in small planes to locate and drop snowshoes, sleep ing bags and food to the stranded trio. The passengers names were not given.

characterized those as police state" methods. He cannot consist ently urge a police state system upon the American people to save European countries from becom- ing police states.
 Increased production obviously is the key to the solution of all the problems involved in Ameri- can aid to Europe and in European rehabilitation. Unless American production is stepped up still higher, this country can't increase its exports without driving prices still higher Until European coun- tries increase their production, they can't feed themselves.
 The idea of the Marshall plan is that the United States will help European countries to get back upon their own economic feet as they help themselves. Any emer- gency aid this winter should be tied in with this plan. European countries which are given extra food supplies should be required to use this food as an incentive to increase production. The United States can set a proper example in this respect by requiring of German coal miners, for example, increased production in return for increased food rationS.

"Little Assembly" Confronted With Important Issues
(By John A. Paris. Jr.D

LAKE SUCCESS, (P)-An au- thoritative source said Saturday the projected United Nations lit tie assembly''-boycotted by the Soviet bloc-may be given five inn portant issues, including the Aus trian peace treaty.
 Creation of the little assem- ply" which has been approved by the assembly's 67-nation political committee, now requires only plenary session affirmation, ana this is expected next week.
 The probability that the little assembly, would soon find itself confronted with a series of import ant issues was advanced as the po- litical committee continued .he east-West wrangle over the adn,is- sion of new members to the United Nations.
 One authoritative source said the United States may take the cad in laying down the work of the projected little assembly," which was the brain child of sec cetary of state George C. Marshall. In view of efforts to wind up the present regular session of the gen. eral assembly, an authoritative source said the little assembly, may be given these items:
 1. The question of abolition of the veto and other means to re- vamp U. N. machinery.
 2. Revision of the Italian peace treaty.
 3. Problems concerning the new ly created U. N commission on Korean independence.
 4. Study of the Austrian peace treaty in event the four-poWer for eign ministers meeting in London this month fail to find a solution.
 5. Review of the Spanish queS- ton.
 The veto, revision of the Italian peace treaty, and the Spanish question all are listed for consid- eration by the present session of the assembly, but many delegates believed they would be deferred in order to wind up the session by Dec. l.
 If this happens, they said the little assembly" would take them up, make recommendations and report to the annual assembly ses- sion next year.

The Shetland shortage has an
other special reason. During the
war troops SWarmed all over the
North of Scotland and the Islands
too. They got to know the local
crafterS, and man, cOupOn-ShOrt,
persuaded them to accept orders
for sweaters for their wives and

found doing business that way
was more profitable. and less wool
got onto the market in consc-

The real fine Cashmere used
to come from China. and was un-

from Persia and elsewhere had to
substitute. and goods of the old

high hopes of a recovery to pre-

Industry depends on many
raw materials produced from the
soil. 1t also depends on water
stored in the soil. Water which
rushes madly from the land to
the streams and onward to the
ocean does no one much, if any,
good. Water conservation is i'm
portant because it reduces eros
ion, keeps slit out of our lakes
and streams, helps reduce food
damage and stores water needed
for crop production.
1T takes so gallons of water
to produce an ear of corn; SO
gallons 60 into the production OF
a pound loaf of bread, including
production of the grain and the
bakery processes; and $4,000 gal
Ions 60 into making a ton OF
steel. A sound and complete soil
and water conservation program
is the best insurance against a
drought period in the climatic
cycle.
"Whole nations and govern
ments in turn depend on the pro.
ducts of the soil; they depend on
the prosperity and well-being Of
communities and individuals.
And so on, the cycle goes. Wars
have been fought, because of q
shortage of land and water re.
sources. And hungry people are
not peaceful, happy people"

services, either through local ag-
ricultural organizations or by
carrying on specialized phases Of
agriculture on personal basis.
