British Archbishop's
Son Wed 10 Catholic
By the Asseeiated Press

LONDON, Dec. 18-The son OF
the Anglican Archbishop of Can
terbury and Roman Catholic girl
were married by a Catholic priest
today.
The archbishop, DR.. Geoffrey
Fisher, head of the Church of Eng
land, was not present, nor was there
comment from him. However, Mrs
Fisher and five other sons attended
One was best man.
The Rev. Alphonso de sZulueta, q
Catholic priest, performed the serv-
ice uniting Henry Arthur Pears
Fisher, 80, brilliant London bar
rister, and Felicity Sutton, 26, 8
Chelsea artist.
Since the bridegroom does not
plan to become Catholic, the serv-
ice was not performed before the
high altar at the Church of Oul
Most Holy Redeemer and st
Thomas More in Chelsea, the scene
OF the wedding.
Any children born of the union
however, will be reared in the
Catholic faith.
The bride, who had described the
wedding as controversial matter
because of the long-standing differ
ences between the two churches, had
her wish that it be an unobtrusive
affair.
There were no bridesmaids or
pageboys, only 20 or 80 guests.

that there should be no connection
between the clinic and the mental
hygiene bureau because the two
jobs would be too big for one man
and because alcoholics would resent
being grouped with mentally dis
turbed persons in the bureau.
If he fails to obtain an alcoholic
clinic director either through his
own resources or through the Pub
lie Health Service, Mr.. Mason said,
he may consider setting up the
clinic as an independent agency
outside the Health Department.
Present plans call for inclusion of
the clinic within the Health De-
partment, but independent of sub
agencies.
Has Had Stormy Career.
Since he became District Health
Oftlcer March /, 1885, DR.. Rutland
has had stormy career, marked by
frequent controversies with the
Commissioners, Congress, the Pub
lie Health Service, and three Wash
ington medical schools.
The Commissioners tried unsuc-
cessfully to have DR.. Ruhland "pur-
ged" in 1910 by legislating for the
job new requirements that he could
not meet. Congress clashed with DR..
Rutland in 1886 when members of
the House District Appropriations
Subcommittee asked him why do
you persist in running to the news
papers and making statements that
embarrass people?"
Former Senator Guffey of Penn
sylvania engaged in a fight with
the District Health Officer in 1914
for refusing certain hospital priv
iliges to the Senator's private ply
sician and for disclosing letters from
Senator Guffey to the Commission
ers in which a Senate investigation
was threatened ito get action"
Quarrelled Over Interns.
Members of the Senate recon-
mended dismissal of both DR.. Ruh-
land and Mr.. Mason in 1943 be-
cause of conditions at Gallinger.
DR.. Rutland quarrelled with George
town, George Washington and How
ard University medical schools over
the manner in which interns and
medical students from the schools
are trained at Gallinger.
Another undercurrent of trouble
arose when DR.. Rutland sought, and
was granted, report from the Pub
lie Health Service on the Gallinger
psychiatric ward. The Federal doc
tors, it was reported, then COM
planned that DR.. Rutland paid lit
tie attention to the report.
While Gallingher Hospital has
been constant trouble spot under
the Rutland administration, the
preventive medicine record of the
HEALTH Department has improved
markedly. Infant deaths have
dropped from 72 per 1000 live births
! in 1887 to 22.8. The city's death
rate now is only 9.5 per 1000 COM
pared with the IA per 1000 rate in
1885.
Other Illnesses Decline.
There also have been steady de-
clines in pneumonia, diphtheria,
tuberculosis and typhoid fever
deaths since DR.. Rutland took
Office.
DR.. Sweeney was hired to run
Gallinger during the war. DR.. Ros-
sitter is employed by Georgetown
and George Washington Universi-
ties to maintain liaison between the
schools and the hospitals. Both
men have long been slated to step
out when requirements can be
found for them.
Mr.. Mason said last night he saw
no reason why the two positions
could not be Jumped in one job, at
somewhat higher salary. He also
said the Health Officer position
should rate higher salary,

amendment OF the rules governing
the Reublican Conference q the
Senate to keep hin in this office, for
the rule has been that after four
years service on the policy commit
tee Senator steps out. This can be
remedied by increasing the member
ship of the policy committee and
authorizing the conference to elect
a chairman who is not necessarily
a member of the committee.
Senator Vandenberg, after con-
ceding Senator Taft had conferred
with him, admitted nothing, beyond
saying that his overriding RESPONSE
bility will center in the field of for
eign relations" He will remain the
ranking Republican on the Foreign
Relations Committee when Demo-
cratic Senator Connally of Texas
takes over the Craftsmanship. This,
however, was not construed as
meaning that he was unavailable
for the Craftsmanship of the Re-
publican Conference.
Vandenberg Quotation.
The sole statement Sen. VAN
denberg made on his conversation
with Sen. Taft was;
I'VE had a general discussion of
the problems which the country and
the party (Republican confront.
These discussions will continue with
all other Republican Senators with
view to decision before the 8lst
Congress convenes."
The Michigan Senator, called at
tention however, to the fact that
under present Senate rules, each
Senator was to serve on two stand
ing committees. Because he was
president pro-temper of the Senate
in the 80th Congress, he served on
only the Foreign Relations Com
mittee.
He said he had given notice-in
writing-that he wished to take
whatever second committee assign
mept would best accommodate the
wishes of other Senators for COM
mittee assignments, with no prior
ity on account of my seniority" Sem
ator Vandenberg will be senior Re-
publican Senator in point of SER
vice in the new Congress-. 1t was
in this connection that Senator
Vandenberg added that his chief
concern would be in connection with
foreign policy of the country.
Tofk Dnf,,<os Da-ork
Senator Taft laid at rest one pub
lished report-that he would seek
membership in the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee. He said that
he had had some idea" about the
Foreign Relations Committee when
he thought that the Republicans
would control the Senate in the new
Congress, but that he was not in
terested now.
This seems to leave the way open
to the assignment of Senator Morse
of Oregon to the Foreign Relations
Committee, if there is a Republican
vacancy-as there will be if the
Democrats determine to keep the
committee on to ratio of Demo-
Gratis and Republicans in the inter-
ests of bipartisan foreign policy.
Senator Morse already has applied
for this assignment. contending that
the Pacific Coast is not represented
on that committee.
So-called progressive Republican
Senators had hoped that Senator
Taft would step aside and not de-
mand that he continue to hold an
important position of leadership in
the Republican organization. Sen
ator Baldwin of Connecticut has
been a leading spirit among the
Senators demanding a change in
leadership-and he has been Joined

because he has not yet been ap-
preached.
The Mason announcement has an
important bearing on the selection
of a director for the Alcoholic Clinic.
Unable to find someone to fill the
$8,100-ayear job, Mr.. Mason will
confer with Federal Security Ad-
ministrator Oscar Ewing tomorrow
in an effort to obtain a United
States Public Health Service ply
sician for the post.
There have been indications that
the Public Health Service would be
reluctant to recommend one of its
men because of the present admin
istration of the District Health De-
partment.
The imminence Of DR.. Rutland S
retirement may attract greater pub
lie health support from the Fed
eral bureau, observers have spec
ulated.
Rutland Backs Single Director.
DR.. Rutland last night reiterated
his contention that one man should
run both the Alcoholic Clinic and
the Health Departments Bureau of
Mental Hygiene. DR.. Leopold E.
Wexberg, present director of the
mental hygiene bureau, was selected
for the clinic post by Mr.. Mason and
the clinic advisory committee. He
was dropped from consideration,
however, late last week when he
disclosed that he would accept the
only alcoholic clinic post If per-
mitted to remain in charge of the
mental hygiene bureau.

Republicans
Continued From First Page }

Senator White of Maine, who is VOL
suntarily retiring. Senator Milliken
was chairman of the Republican
Conference in the Eightieth Con-
gress.
The suggested slate may be at
tackled from two angles. First, by
Republican Senators, mostly from
New England, who demand that the
party leadership in the Senate be
given new and more progressive
look. Second, by Senator Wherry
who has had aspirations for the
floor leadership of the party himself
Senator Wherry, however, is a
strong party man, and may go along
with the plan now advanced.
Admittedly, Vandenberg, Taft and
Millikin and Wherry have substan-
tial followings in the Senate, and If
they all stick together, this slate
may be expected to 60 across, when
the Republicans meet in conference
at the opening of the new Congress
to pass on party organization in the
Senate.
Senator Taft, while refusing tc
say fatty that he intended to seek
to retain Craftsmanship of the Re-
publican Policy Committee or try
for the minority floor leadership
clearly indicated yesterday that he
was not backing away from playing
full part in the Republican leader
ship.
Questioned at a press conference
the Ohio Senator commented that
he had not started the stories that
he would retire from the chairman
ship of the policy committees post
he has held four years.

suggestion that I quit" he said

have been requesting a new look"
for the Republican organization.
Asked at his press conference
whether he would be a candidate
for the Republican presidential
nomination in 1852, Senator Taft
replied with a chuckle:

Local Groups Air Problems
 Before Davis

In an effort to bring disagree ing factions of the membership of the Matanuska Valley Farm CTS Cooperating Association into harmony again, James P. Davis, director( of the Division of Insular Possessions and Ter ritories, spent most of last Friday in conference with members of the Coop board and with group committees and indi- 'tvidual farmers.
 Director Davis discussed in de- tail all phases of the Co-op's problems with it's board of direc- tors. He also met with commit tees from the Matanuska Valley Dairyman's Association and from the Valley Producers, Inc. Later he called at the homes of several Valley farmers for still further conferences.
 At the conclusion of his days work, MT. Davis expressed the hope that an amicable settlement of the differences may be reached this week. The director, who met with the board of the Alaska Rural Rehabilitation Cor poration at an informal break fast meeting last Friday, will re- turn for further discussion of the matter with the Corporation board next week.
 He said he hoped to be able to announce at the meeting that the To-op's disagreement with it's members had been settled and that Valley farmers are again content with the operation of the organization.

Bees ReLax Ln Cool Val ley Cline

Hundreds and hundreds of California bees are having a whizz of time in the clover and fireweed blossoms of Matanuska Valley these days. However the long highway trek they made to reach Alaskan pastures evidently has gone to their heads some what, for beekeeper G. D. Shreve says they've apparently decided to make holiday of their north ern junket and nothing more. At any rate, they haven't rewarded him with any appreciable amount of honey yet.
 MT. Shreve is inclined to blame it on the Valleys climate. He thinks that after the p1us-hun- dred temperatures of Chico, Calif., his bees may find the Val ley's temperatures of 50 and 60 just too cool for any honest-to- goodness work. They sip enough Alaskan nectar to supply their udlly ueSOS, anu apparently are going to let tomorrow take care of itself.
 MT. Shreve's bees, which rep resent the first attempt to pro- duce honey commercially in Alaska, still have most of the summer in which to redeem themselves, however. He says it's not unusual for hives to produce most of their summers store of honey in couple of weeks. Even in Chico, he finds mid-July a bit early for any serious honey making in his hives.
 The Californian loaded 100 hives of heas- -a,,- -hie +,.,,oI>- el>e,.4

two months ago. He struck Cana da when flood conditions were at their worst, and he was so long in arriving in the Valley that his bees were in very poor condition. He set up the hives in spot near the Matanuska River, where the bees might feed on the pollen of pussy willows, then at it's best. In the meantime, he wired Chico for another A pack ages of bees, with which to sup plement his dwindling supply.
 The second shipment came by air to Anchorage and were transported from Anchorage to Palmer by bus. This shipment ar rived in excellent condition, MT. Shreve said, although the bees were sent through without any food. It was the first time a ship ment had been attempted in this manner, although bees are ship ped all through the midwest by air from the Shreve ranch at Chico. The Shreves combine all mond-growing with bookkeeping.
 The Shreve hives are now scattered in small lots at several points through the Valley. No at tempt is being made to segre- gate the types of honey, but the insects are allowed to feed freely on all types of wild flowers.
 If MT. Shreve's experiment fails in the Matanuska Valley this summer, he plans to try similar project in Fairbanks next year. He feels that Fairbanks may be more suited to the com-
Valley frontiersman., 1948-07-20

though he says he's already seen enough to be sure that a few hives of bees on Valley farms would prove a profitable under taking for any farmer interested in raising his own honey.
 One local farmer, Bill Smith, has experimented with bees dur ing the past years. He gets one package each year, just because he likes to fool with bees" Any one who's ever been around bees likes to work with them, MT. Shreve asserts. They're inter- esting," he explains.
 Should the bee experiment prove successful, the California rancher will not attempt to win ter his hives. It is more profitable to kill off the bees each fall and to order new packages in the spring, than to attempt to feed them through the winter. The airborne bees are inexpensive to transport and their initial cost is not great.
 Although MT. Shreve expects that he may be disappointed in his first attempt at bee-raising in Alaska, he's not planning to give up after one attempt. He'll be back somewhere in the territory trying again next year. He's found that although he Hikes California fine, I like Alaska even better" He'd rather live in the Valley, but if his tempera- mental bees prefer Fairbanks, then that's where the Shreves will hang out their -hives-next
