 TALKS ON
 5HIppING

PRINCE RUPERT, B. C., Nov. 19.-tR-- Canadian competition in freight shipments to Alaska would be one likely result of Alaska s rise to statehood. Governor Ernest Gruening predicted here today.
 Increased use of Canadian ship ping and the strategically situat- ed port of Prince Rupert would help relive the northern Terri tory's 'recurent marine transpor- tation dilemmas, he sai3.
 Gov. Gruening stopped here en route to Washington, D. C., where he will confer with President Tru- man on shipping and other Alaska problems.
 At Pacific Northwest Trade Association Conference held in Portland Ore, this week, Gov Gruening was taken to task for his advocacy of the need for com petitive steamship service to AL aska.
 Accusation
 He accused his attacker, r. A. Zeusler. Alaska Steamship execu- tive. of speaking as company employee and solely in the in- terests of the company
 The current transportation di- lemma is due to the United States West Coast shipping strike. Can adian ships cannot fill the breach because U. s. statute which prohibits Canadian bottoms from carrying U. S. freight.
 Some Relief
 A recent ruling of the U. s. Attorney General eased the situa- ton by allowing government freight to be shipped in Canadian vessels. A vast tonnage" com prised of tractors and heavy ma chinery for the Alaska Highway Commission, food products for the Army, and Indian Affairs Depart ment supplies, moved under the new regulation, he said. The people of Alaska have been suffering the untoward effects of tthe shipping) monopoly for so long that they are thoroughly convinced of the value of competition he said.
 Gov. Gruening termed the advent of statehood "an indispensable step toward the development of Alaska, D and important to the whole na- tion."
 Speaking of the development which he feels would follow such q step, the Governor said:
 ' still hope to see a car ferry service inaugurated from Prince Ruper. to Alaska ports such as Ketchikan. Juneau and Haines."

Newest Jei Bomber Fa5t
 Ship, Claim

MOSES LAKE AIR FORCE BASE, Wash, Nov. 19.-tR- Pilots who fly the Air Forces newest jet bomber, the Boeing B-47 Stratojet, say it handles like fighter de- spite its near B-29 size.
 Scott Osler, Boeing test pilot, told reporters the men who take up the Cotton, 600-mile an hour ship feel that it flys a lot bet ter than any other large airplane. It's more like a fighter than a B-29."
 His discussion came during the first visit of newsmen to this iso- lated base, put to work recently for flight testing the B-47. It soon will be a night fighter base.
 Osler told how the B-47 stepped away from an early model Lock- heed F-80 shooting Star one day while the two were flying wind towing so that the air speed in struments of the bomber could be checked against those of the fight CT.
 When we got up to the higher ranges, the F-80 just couldn't keep up," Osler said. That model fight CT would do around $50 miles per hour. The Air Force will not say what the B-47 can do, but it is rated at more than 600 miles per hour.
 Only two BATS have been built thus far.

T axe Ny Word for 1t

Watch the word authoritative. A
United States Senator, during a
radio address, pronounced it "uh-
THOR-uh- -tiv." But the word has
five syllables: u-thor-i-ta- tive. Be
sure to pronounce them all, thus:
AUTHORITATIVE.
Heard on a network newscast:
THE frightened guests descended
the fire ex-capes to safety" OF
course, there is no 'x' in the word
escape, though many people do say
"ex-cape." Better say: ess-cape.
Program note. Gov. Thomas E.
Dewey does not slur the second syl-
liable OF program. He pronounces 1t
correctly as gram" as in diagram.
Heard on q radio commercials:
Blanks beer, your lay-zhoor time
beverage" The word used is leisure.
The pronunciation "lay-zhoor" is as
erroneous as Fred Warnings play
zhoor" for the word pleasure. The
word measure is sometimes heard as
"may-zhoor," but it has no sanction
whatever.
| Leisure Is: LEE-zher Also, but
less frequently these days: LEH-
zher.
Pleasure and measure shoulc
rhyme with treasure: PLEH-zher
MEH -zher, TREH-zher.

Have you ever studied the back
bone of lizard?
There is an interesting point
about it. AS in the case OF some
other animals, lizards backbone
runs along the back and then right
out to the end of the tail, making
one long, jointed line.
There are about 1850 kinds OF
lizards in the world, and they differ
a great deal. Most of them have
four legs, but few kinds have
only two legs, others none. The
glass snake is an example OF the
lizards without any legs. This liz
ard looks like snake, but 1t really
is a member of the lizard family
A glass snake has lids over its eyes
but a true snake never has any eye
coverings.
Most lizards crawl along the
ground, but there are some which
live in trees and others which walk
on two legs.
Certain tree lizards have tails
which they use in climbing to the
branches of trees. The flying nzards
of the Malay states live in trees
When they spread out folds of skin
they make excellent glides from one
limb to another, or from a tree tc
the ground.
Australia has frilled lizards. These
animals have large frills just behind
the head Their legs are long and
they usually walk on all four feet
When they are alarmed they rise
up and run on two legs.
Some types of lizards burroW into
the ground. The deserts of Mexico
and Southwestern parts OF the
United States have many burroWing
lizards. These can get under the
sand in hurry.
BY going into the sand. desert
lizards are likely to escape from

from Ramsey Ridge, where he
and many others met to decorate
the graves of their loved ones
with an abundance of lovely flow

there and heard old time preach

Services were opened by S. W.
