Seattle Nursery
Wins First Prize
In Floral Exhibit

The well-known Seattle nursery
prize at the Western Washington
Fair this year.
Strander, owner of Strander Ev-
ergreen Nurseries, a firm devoted
largely to growing of ornamental
evergreens, built a contemporary
rock garden featuring many rare
plants. Some of these plants have
never before been exhibited in this
region of the country.
The garden was designed by his
son, John B. Strander, a graduate
landscape architect from Cornell
University, in Ithaca, New York.

Oslo recently. He has been given
the assignment by the American
Philosophical Association to write
a book on the history of Norway's
labor movement and the structure
and activities of Norwegian labor
organizations. DR.. GaleRson was

Preliminary figures indicate
that this seasons catch of mack
erel will be an all time record.
Last years catch has been already
doubled. Good catches are also re-
ported from the herring fisheries
near Iceland. Some of the boats
will be able to make two trips
during the season.

Here, as in so many other cases,
the stupidity of the invaders, led
to the opposite of what they had
I intended. After Professor Bohr's
departure the Germans occupied
the Institute and turned it up
side down in an effort to find the
clues to his results. Professor
Bohr has returned home after the
war, and, with DR.. Boggild. is
continuing his work on the split
ting of uranium. In connection
with this work the Institute is
about to undertake big extern
sions.
A minor action, though very
typical, was the German ban on
all reference to the fact that a
Danish scientist, DR.. Dam, who
had lived in America throughout
the war, had been awarded the
Nobel prize for the discovery of
Vitamin K; needless to say We
heard of it anyhow. An interior
ence of this kind was only laugh
able, and laughter was always one
of our best weapons in the mortal
struggle against the Germans. 1t
may be said that they displayed
complete recklessness in affording
us opportunities on which to use
it
Scientific work takes a long
time, and the scientific publica-
tions often appear long after the
work is completed. The Interrupt
ton of the work during the war,
as described above, will only gra-
dually become evident in the scien-
tific publications. During the war
they appeared regularly. more re-
stricted by shortage of paper than
by lack of material.
In a brief review of this nature
it is impossible, without being ar
bitrary, to mention individual con-
tributions. A survey Of Danish
scientific work during the war
has been collected in book which
will appear shortly under the
title: Danish Scientific Activities
during the Second World War"
This book springs from the feeling
of isolation which beset us during
the occupation, and it is an at
tempt to re-establish our connec-
tions with the science of the free
world. 14O contributors have des-
cribed the main features of the
work done in each of their special
/ fields. Each description is con-
fined to a couple of pages and is
accompanied by photography
which comprises 3,O00-4,O0O treat
Uses that have appeared in Den
mark during the occupation.
| The individual reviews are
grouped under photography, Phil
osophy, Theology and the Philo-
! logical-Historica subjects, Geog-
raphy, Mathematics, P hysi S,
Chemistry, Astronomy and the
Geophysical and Geological SUBJ
jects.
Biology has sections on Botany,
Zoology, and Physiology; an d
Medicine is divided into the theo
retical and the clinical subjects.
In applied science there are
groups like Veterinary Science,
and Agricultural subjects, which
are of extreme Importance in a
country like Denmark. Finally
there are the technical sciences:
Technical Chemistry. Engineering.
Electricity and Building. only
one branch of science has n t
wished to be represented, namely
Law, which felt so circumscribed
by the conditions that the publica-
tions which appeared are not rep
resentative.
The work will be useful as a
source of fuller and more detailed
information about Danish science
during the war.

Boys. Fast Heavy
After having had chance last
night to look his squad over,
Wenzel has decided that, while
lacking in experience, it will have
some characteristics not to be dis
missed lightly.
On the whole, the boys are
pretty fast; the team should have
more speed than the average
small high school team. There are
some husky lads on the squad, so
the starting lineup should be
heavier than average for a high
school-somewhere in the neigh
borhood of 100 pounds, the Coach
believes.
mot too bad for a school our
size" Wenzel unused. And
there's another nice feature about
them, too-there are only seven
seniors on the entire squad, so /
can build for next year, too"
Backfield Assignment
Further, Wenzel is beginning
to get some fair ideas as to GER
tain assignments on the team.
Passing, for instance, will be
handled by Quarterback Jack
Mcguire and Fullback Loren
Grimes. These two and End
Johnny Dayton will share the
punting chores. All three of these
boys are rather adept at these
chores.
Most of the ball totin' will be
handled by Halfbacks Curly Hill
and Bud White. Hill is the hard
er-hitting of the two, and per-
haps bit shiftier and faster,
but White is a dangerous runner
when he can be broken into the
open. Both can be counted upon
to gain yardage.

Radar Screen To Protect Far North

MONTREAL, Que. (P)-The de- velopment of the Arctic waste lands, key to global air travel in war as well as peace, took another long step forward today through joint U. S.-Canadian plan to throw a radar screen around the far north.
 Establishment of series of !oran dong range radar aid-to- navigation stations are to be com pleted this year and possibly an other in l948-WaS seen as materi- ally increasing the potentialities of northern bases.
 In addition, some Canadians viewed last nights announcement of the join project by Louis s. St. Laurent, Canada's external affairs minister, as adding force to U. s. moves in the international politi- cal field-recently emphasized by President Truman's call for aid to Greece and Turkey.
 Construction of the loran syS- tcn for the Arctic was seen as a logical continuation of steps to Se- cure North American dominance of aerial short cuts across the frog en top of the world in joint U. s. Canadian program of winter man euvers, experimental flights and the projected building of nine weather stations in the area in the next three years.
 President Trumans' contemplat- ed visit to Canada in early June was viewed in some Canadian quarters as an additional demon Stration of the close friendship binding this country and the United States.
 St. Laurent, in his announce ment of the loran program, de- clared:
 Tn order that these stations may be constructed and in operation at an early date, the United States has offered to assist us by supply ing technical personnel until suf- ficient trained Canadian personnel are available for replacement, as well as certain special technical equipment not available in Can ada"
 The exact location of the sta tions was not disclosed. But St. Laurent said that initially they would be operated in conjunction with existing stations on U. s. territory, presumably Alaska.

DIPS AND PEAKS

Practical economists view the business outlook in terms of peaks and valleys. They have come to accept the ups and downs of the charts as interpretation of the myriad factors indicative of trends that may take place in our chang ing, dynamic economy. \ But the query is put: How can we avoid depressions? Must we take these periodic back-sets for granted? Is there not danger for America in depressions?
 These questions are sometimes honestly asked by critics of what they call bloom and bust" capital ism. Yes, there is danger in depres- sions. They're full of dynamite We might wish to avoid the eff fleets of every kind of business re- cession, but to say that we desire to give up freedom of individual opportunity for regimentation so thorough that we can avoid depres- sions would be to swap temporary setback for permanent disaster.
 Level Road?
 Americas economy is a chang ing economy. It is dynamic. And its direction, always, has been up- wards toward the mountain peaks of a higher and higher standard of living for all her citizens. It is just possible that we could stay in the valley, finding a level road that would be smooth and easy. Some folks mistakenly call this "secur- ity." But if we would have the mountain peaks of higher and higher living, then we must be prepared for the brief plateaus, or even the dips, of re-adjustment for the climb ahead.
 This need be no bitter revela- tion. The price of no depression would mean accepting a static economy. We can have mo prog

We shall be able to avoid the mistake of blaming overproduction, for we now know that to admit overpro- duction is to admit that we can off, fer higher standard of living than our people can accept. We shall know too, how to use public works to better advantage in cush- ioning future recessions.
 America can keep going ahead on the climb upward toward heights now undreamed of if we rededicate ourselves to honest eff fort in understanding and using the system that has brought us so much. Recognizing the laurels that belong already to the American way, we may scale heights that yet have never been surveyed. Let us not just take depressions for granted; let's take them in stride.

Prices Top Eiqh

In the continuous depression of the Orien. life moves along always the same, measured in centuries. Living improves slowly there, if at all. In Soviet Russia every citi- zen is guaranteed full-time job, but at wages that are approximate ly one-fifth of our own wages. State socialism desires to become your protector. You may have full and continuous protection-if you care to turn over to the state the job of deciding how many jobs there will be, what will be pro- duced, who'll take the jobs, and at what wages. But we know the price of this protectorate is too high.
 Almost within our own genera tion the working man has had his hours cut nearly one-third. Real wages of the undiscovered" com mon-man have tripled in many in- dustries. Secondary school enroll ments have increased ten times, and college education is available to everyone. The physical com forts and the luxury goods con- sumed by Americas common-man is the envy of the whole world. All this has taken place, despite de- pressions.
