self -conscious. Pretty soon

even cut her child's hair with
professional hair cutting shears.
Victor only urges that Mothers
never thin the ends Of the hair.
When thinning is needed it
should be done around the

ural curl on the ends is aided
by shaping when the hair is still

1t had to happen some day-a
beauty salon exclusively for
children. Now mothers who are
harried by restless youngsters
can deposit them in their own
sub-sub glamor salon for a hair
treatment, and pick them up
when they have slowed down to
a walk.
Your little girl will love a
trip to the beauty parlor, if they
are all like the one Victor Vito
of N. Y. dreamed up for his
young customers.
From the chandeliers hang
stuffed animals and other play
toys. The little tot can fasten her

Supplies of scrap for the steel furnaces are critically
low. The furnaces thrive on a diet of about equal

Barge Freight Co. Doesn't Want Aid

0P) Special Washington Servie)
 WASHINGTON, (R A House committee today had the word o1 officials of the Alaska Freight Ex. press Corporation that it does not want government aid for its barge service to Alaska.
 Leon Delong, a barge company official, told the House sub-com- mittee on territories that his com pany was privately financed and was willing to continue that way.
 He said however, that if the law providing interim steamship service to Alaska is renewed for another year his company wants the same benefits from it that three Seattle steamship companies receive now.
 The law permits the maritime commission to furnish the Seattle companies government own e d ships at a nominal charter hire.
 The agreement between the commission and the companies gave them exclusive right to serve Alaska. The companies are The Alaska Steamship company, The Northland Transportation com pany and the Alaska Transporta- ton company.
 Delong testified his company has cut freight rates 35 per cent under those charged by the steam ship companies and believes it will be able to show profit. He said his firm plans to extend its service this summer.
 Delong was invited to testify be- fore the committee by Rep .Craw- ford R.-Mich0 who said he want ed the other committee members to know competition with Seattle companies not only is possible but is actually operating.

GAP Special Washington Service)
 WASHINGTON, (P)-A House subcommittee recommended to- day that Alaska be made a state.
 It made the recommendation to a still larger subcommittee, which met to consider approving the proposal and sending it on to the full House public lands commit tee.
 Rep. Crawford R.-Mich) is chairman of both subcommittee. He and a small group of other representative visited Alaska last summer It is their report which recommends statehood to the sub committee on territories.
 ''On the basis of the record and findings of fact, the sub-commit- tee concludes Alaska should be admitted to statehood" the report said.
 Although statehood bills have been regularly introduced in one Congressional session after an- other, it is only in recent years that conscientious consideration has been given to them.
 That is because the importance of Alaska to the United States as a whole has been brought home to us, and because the steadily in- creasing population of the Terri tory has been diligent in calling public attention to the differences
