THREE 4-h ALASkAN5 GET TRIP TO CHICAGO;
 WILL LEAVE NOV. s.

Thanksgiving Day is going to be one of added pleasure for the Alas ka All contest winners as that IS the day they will start on the lcng journey to the National All Club Congress at Chicago. Chosen r3r their outstanding All records this year are Jack Bradway of Fairbanks, Phyllis Dangler of Seward, and Donald Dinkel of Was.lla. Mss Marilyn Johnson. District Home Demonstration Agent and former North Dakota winner of the 1-H Canning contest, will accompany the winners to Chicago, where they will meet Director L. T. Oldroyd, who will return to Alaska with the delegates. These free trips are awarded each year to All men,- bers l4 years of age or over, who have carried All projects for at least least three years. The eSperSa is financed ty large industries ill., terested in the welfare of farm peo- pie, and by local business firms.
 Jack Bradway, 15-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. M. G. Bradway, mas completed 5 years of club work, , of them in gardening and the others in poultry and rabbits. His diary of day-by-day work in his one-ha-f acre garden depicts a typical Alaska story of the planting, which started on May 24. the fight against weeds and pests, and the successful har- vesting which started with the sale of 12 punches of radishes at Is cents each on June 25. Driving a cat and tractor, narrowing, and hoe.ng dili- gently were rewarded with cash income of $1l4.90, which was spent mostly on his winter clothing and postal savings The factor which in- fluenced the judges in his favor was his interest in helping the younger All club members and his assistance to the local leader, Mrs. s. s. West. His entire trip will be financed by Allis- Chalmers Manufacturing Com pany.
 Phyllis Dangler of Seward, high school sophomore whose brother was a trip winner last year, pursued three All club projects this year Clothing, Meal Preparation, and Room Improvement, and since all were included in the national con- tests extended to Alaskans, she en- tered each contest. Her bigge t problem was in finding other girls who were interested in the same project as she. None were, so she took each project alone as an in- dlvidual member and demonstrator. In the Clothing project she made quired), which included a slip, ? dresses, 3 blouses, 2 skirts, pair of pajamas, play suit, and wool suit made over from a large one cut down to her measurement. In addi- tion to her All sewing, she also took sewing at school and feels both were well worth the time and effort, since she was able to increase her wardrobe considerable at little expense to herslf. In connection with her Meal Preparation project she prepared most of the suppers for the family last winter and learn ed to make pies in addition to pro- ject requirments. AS her main pro- ject in room improvement she chose redecorating the living room, which meant kemtoning the walls and ceil-

No Comparison Between
Wallace and Truman
Mill Woman Write.

Editor: In the February goth is
sue Of the Minneapolis Spokesman
one of the columnists devoted a
large portion Of his article to criti-
cism of Henry A. Wallace. Anyone
reserves the right to oppose a po-
litical candidate for office, even
with the stroke of the pen. But
whether he is basic in his facts
should be determined by written
authority or at least authentic in
formation.
The columnist who writes
almost About Everything" tried
to compare Wallace's progressive
ism with that of Harry Truman's.
If we use the record of these men
as a senator and member of the
cabinet, etc, here is the record.
1t was Henry Wallace who pre-
vailed upon Mrs. Franklin Roose-
welt to take issue with the OAR.
when Marian Anderson was refused
the right to sing in Constitution
Hall. 1t was Henry Wallace who
on the platform in 1914, at the
Democratic National Convention, as
a candidate for vice president said:
THE poll tax must go, lynchings
must be stopped, we must enact
F.E.P.C. legislation" Subsequent
ly, Harry Truman was nominated
for the vice presidency. 1t was
Wallace who went into the South
on a political tour and refused to
speak before segregated audiences.
Wallace has consistently spoken out
against discrimination and pref
udice while it was costing him the
support of those who condone such
practices.
There have been attempts to criti-
cize Wallace on his record as Score
tary of Agriculture. Anyone who
knows about the different cabinet
posts in Washington, knows there
are more Southerners employed in
the Department of Agriculture than
any other single department. This
is not the fault of the cabinet head
but it does account for a lot of the
prejudice. Harry Truman, when a
senator, made a speech before the
Negro Democratic Club in Chicago
June IA, 1910, and said: 1.-THE con-
dition Of the Negro must be bet
tered" On July Ia, 1910, Mr.. Tru-
