Makes
Ersatz Hills

BERLIN.-(AP).-Berlin, which
is built on a sandy plain as flat
as a pancake, will have its hills
as fast as Germans can pile up
the rubbish from its bomb ruins.
In planning the Berlin of the
future, park planners have de-
cided that the city can best be
cleared by making mountains
of the debris and then planting
them with grass, trees and BUSH
es. The huge Nazi-built anti-air-
craft towers scattered through
out Berlin which are being blast
ed to destroy their war potential
will serve as a base for many of
the hills.

Swedish Nurse Slated to Head
World Council at Session Today

Slender, earnest, Gerda Hojer from
Sweden is the worlds ranking nurs-
ing official.
Her selection as president-elect
of the international Council OF
Nurses was expected to be confirmed
today In the concluding session OF
the nursing organizations grand
council, which has been meeting
here this week.
Interviewed in the Mayf1ower
Hotel, where delegates from 80 coun-
tries have setup their headquarters
Miss Hojer smiled nervously at the
prospect of presiding over the full
session of the first postwar nursing
conference when it moves next week
to Atlantic City, NJ J., for the con-
Guiding meeting,
Council officials say Miss Hojer
has been studying parliamentary
procedure and hasn't missed a
moment of the deliberations this
week,
She will be the second Scandi-
navian to head the international
nurses organization. The first was
Baroness Mannerheim, who pre-
sided over the 1925 Congress in
Helsinki, Finland.
Miss Hojer is a graduate of the
Red Cross School of Nursing In
Stockholm, studied at the London
School of Economics and was on the
the staff of Maria Schittius Hospital
In Stockholm before she became
prisident of the Swedish Nurses
Association, her present post.
She has been in the United States
since February on a scholarship
from the Rockefeller Foundation.
Sweden would like to send some
of its nurses, to this country to work
| in American hospitals and learn
American techniques, Miss .Hojer
related, but American regulations
prevent them from holding nursing
Jobs during their visit. United
States nurses may work in Swedish
hospitals, she said.
Among the most important issues
to come before the grand council
in its meetings here, according to
Miss Hojer, is the question of train
| ing for practical nurses
| Miss Hojer said the council would
recommend establishment of proper
standards for the training of this
group.

You can always tell when
Viola's lost an argument, one
successful prospector confded.
She invariably shows up with a
new hat to perk up her spirits.
But by the time she's worn it a
few times, she has usually won
her point.
One of the most productive of
Mrs. MacMillan's innovations
is the continuous convention,
made up of key experts from big
mining companies and govern
ment departments, which trav-
els from coast to coast briefng
prospectors on new mining meth
DDS. The discovery of the new
Aldermac Moulton Hill Mine
last year was a direct result of
one of these lectures.
Il Pays OF
ANOTHER Macmillan project
that is beginning to pay off is
the establishment of a special
mining course at the Univer-
sity of Toronto. At least so
Americans took the course last
year.
Though she is anxious to en-
list as many young men as pos
sible in prospecting, Mrs. Mac
MILAN makes no bones about the
fact that it is one of the tough
est and most heartbreaking ways
to earn a living. Striking it rich
is still a long shot.
When a young man asked her
Evening star., 1947-10-05

advice recently, she told him
that if he were willing to leave
his family from freeze-up in the
fall to breakup in the spring,
live in drafty shacks at 40 below
zero and 60 hungry, he might
make a 60 of it. He was willing,
she says with a twinkle, and it
paid off well.
No cxyhabies Wanted
SHE thinks there is room for
many more women in the field.
Today the Association has Is
women members. But, she warns,
there is no space for crybabies.
A hardy constitution, a stiff
upper lip and a scorn for luxuries
are more important than maps
and pickaxes.
Women who are the least bit
squeamish won't like prospect
ing. Mrs. Macmillan learned
that lesson early.
1--WE stopped to visit an old
prospector who had nine dogs"

to his NANCY mongrels. And
they're the best little helpmates
a man ever had. Never have to
wash dish. l just set them out
for the dogs, and they clean 'em
up nice as you please
When he offered me tea and
sandwiches, l was about to re-
fuse. My husband kicked me un-
der the table. You see, no one
ever refuses hospitality in the
bush. It's bad manners. So l
gingerly nibbled a bit of sand

ately hoped l wouldn't be sick.

Smithsonian Combs 8 Tons
Of Rock to Trace History

PaleontologfSt at the Smithsonian
Institution are busy these days read
ing the history of the earth, as
written in fossil shells imbedded in
eight tons Of rock, for a period
extending from It's, 5,o00, 900 to 212,-
000, 900 years ago.
The period is called the Permian
geological epoch. It was one of
the great transition periods Of
earthly time when the planets crust
was becoming fixed into something
approaching its present contour and
back-boned Notwithstanding the
possible ancestors Of mammals-had
conquered the land.
For eight years, the Smithsonian
Institution has been accommodating
Permian material. Progress in the
past has been rather slow since it
was necessary to chip each fossil
from the hard rock by hand with
laborious care and patience in order
that all details might be preserved.
A new method of dissolving the
rock in acid has speeded the work
recently. The fossils, composed Of
silica, are not affected by the acid.
Predominant fossils are those Of
shelled creatures whose remains be-
came imbedded in offshore sea-
bottom ooze. Most of them are
small. Their fossils are like cryptic
letters stamped in rock.
A special laboratory has been set
up for the work. All the fossils in
the eight tons Of accumulated rock
will be etched out and classified as
soon as possible. It is expected the
number Of fossils Of this period In
the Smithsonian collections will be
about doubled. Then will remain
the dif1cult task of Interpretation.

Permian areas Is West Texas. Other
large deposits of rocks formed in
this period are in China and Russia.
In the Northern hemisphere the
Permian epoch on the whole seems
to have been a temperate period

Southern hemisphere, there was
