Hospital Nursery
 Makes New Record With 8 LOdgers

Babies Collier, Fruit and Granger moved over in the nur- sery at the Valley hospital late last week and early this, to make room for four new arrivals. The nursery population of eight is a peak record for the hospital, ac- cording to the memory of its present staff.
 One young lady who's going to miss out on her share of birth day cakes in the years ahead, is the baby daughter of MT. and Mrs. Harold Harris of Wasilla. The little girl was the only Leap Year baby for the Valley. She checked in with a birth weight of seven pounds, four ounces.
 The three youngest Valley-ites all arrived within one 24-hour stretch, beginning in the early morning hours of March 2. First was the baby son of MT. and Mrs. Sigurd Kuoppala of Eska. He was born at 1:25 on the morn Ing of the second.
 The at 11:20 a.m., Mrs. Jennie Nicolai of Chistochina became the mother of an eight pound, four ounce baby boy.
 The final arrival of the day on March 2 checked in at 4:45 that afternoon. He was the eight pound, 12 ounce son of MT. and Mrs. Claremont Oborn of Copper Center.

A Few Words To The Wise .
Sponsored by the Valley Minis.
 terial Association)

A terrific explosion took place in a Welsh mine. Many miners escaped, but some were killed. A rescue party heard a mans voice. He was buried under a mass of debris, but being tightly wedged in by mine props and comparatively uninjured, he seemed perfectly happy.
 A long pipe was pushed through to him, down which milk was occasionally poured. He sang and whistled to pass away the time. ''There is no need to hurry" he said. "It's true I am in pitch darkness and pinned in on every side. But I'm all right-save those first who are in worse plight. Don't trouble about me-"
 With the greatest difficulty, however, he managed to get a box of matches out of his pocket. He lighted a match. Then inn mediately he cried out in agon- izing tones: Mates, for goodness sake, hurry up and rescue me. I'm in an awful position. Rocks and timbers are hanging over my head ready to fall on mel"
 It is not likely that men will seek a Saviour unless they feel the NEED of one. Only the con- viction of sin and the fear of judgment can make them realize their danger.
 Only the light of Gods Word illuminated by the Holy Spirit, will bring men to realize the guilt and PERIL of sin.

All Council Plans Membership Drive,
 Names Leaders

Valley All Club leaders began National All Week, which ex- tends from March 1 through March 7, with a All Council meeting last Monday evening. Plans were formulated at that meeting for the extension of All work in the Valley, and for an all-out drive for increased club memberships.
 Organization of several new clubs IS being considered for the Valley and for the Anchorage area. One new club leader, Mrs. Finn of the Richards childrens home, volunteered to lead a club.
 Former leaders who named the projects they planned for this years work included:
 Gloria Smith. sewing I and
 II; Flo Alice Dinkel. sewing l:
 Mrs. Agnes Sandvik. sewing
 and room improvement; Mrs.
 Finn. gardening; Mrs. Lou
 Sandvik. baking II; Mrs. MaN
 garet Miller. sewing I and II.
 Mrs. Harold Dinkel and Lynn Sandvik also will lead All clubs this year, but thus far have been assigned no specific projects.
 Extension office personnel are anxious to organize a poultry project, but to date have ob- tained no leader for it. Any Val ley resident interested in headv ing a All project, or any family which has children interested in becoming All club members, are asked to stop at the Extension office for detailed information.

Charles Wilson, territorial soil conservationist, this week moved to permanent office quar- ters in the Rec hall. MT. Wilson occupies the suite formerly be- longing to Dr. F. R. Sims.
 MT. Wilson said his office, which will be territorial head quarters for the Soil Conserva- tion Service, will be available for use by members of the Alas ka Conservation Board.

Glen Woods, retiring member of the Palmer board of educa- tion, was unanimously returned to his seat on the board at last Mondays school election. MT. Woods was unopposed.
 Voting was very light, election judges report. Not more than 75 Valley residents visited the polls in the gymnasium lobby to cast their votes for MT. Woods.

A Correction

Al Hagen, chairman of the board of directors of the Valley Volunteer Fireman's Association, reported this week that two slight errors were made in the compiling of the recent Bingo game financial report.
 Advertising for the Valley Set tier, charged at SIP in the report, actually cost the Association only $5. A meal charge of $2.25 for Oscar Klndgren should have read Oscar Klndgren and Al Hagen.

some put it, you were "slaughtering
little pigs" and blowing under

Mr.. Wallace: Those policies were
emergency measures. The big-city
boys had already been practicing
scarcity in producing steel and au-
tomobiles. The high tariff had
killed our export market. The
farmers purchasing power was
shot.
We had to bring the farmers back
in line with what American industry
had already done. And I tried. once
the balance was restored, to move
away from those emergency meas
ures as fast as possible. I've been
preaching abundance for 20 years.

mot speaking for either the British
government, which had just de-
feated him, or the British people.
And his Fulton speech certainly was
not the policy then preached by
Ernest Bevin. But he had some
pretty good backing on the platform
with him.
@. But he was invited to Fulton,
wasn't he?
Mr.. Wallace: Well, over 100 men,
bers of Parliament sponsored my
trip to England, and think that
was pretty good backing, too. I
didn't claim to be speaking for any
one but myself. Churchill came
over here to consolidate the reac-
tionaries, and I went over there to
consolidate the progressives who
wanted to preserve the peace. I
certainly think any citizen is en-
titled to work for peace.
@. But you we're openly attacking
the American administration. Isn't
there a difference?
Favors Form of Capitalism
Mr.. Wallace: AS long as We are
not at war yet I don't see what is
wrong in speaking out against poll
cies that lead to war. I told people
in Europe just what have been
telling people in this countfy-to
get together to stop the drive toward
war before it's too late.
@. In a book of yours you once
wrote: Neither socialism nor COM
munism meets the realities Of hu-
man nature. Both Of them have an
emotional dryness, dogmatic thin
ness which repels me-" Do you still
stand by those feelings?
Mr.. Wallace: Yes, although that
is hardly a complete statement.
@. Would you call yourself be-
lever in capitalism?
Mr.. Wallace: I am. Roosevelt
was, too. I believe in progressive
capitalism.
O. What's that? ....
Mr.. Wallace: Reactionary cap
italism controls production in order
to fix prices at the point where they
will yield the highest profit. 1t is
a doctrine of scarcity; it produces
the boom-bust cycle when inven-
tories get so high that it is more
profitable to cut production, and
boom-bust will destroy capitalism
itself unless we have an economy Of
abundance.

a valuable property, until he was
appointed to the United States Sen
ate in March, 1928, to fill a vacancy
caused by the death Of the late
Senator Ferris, a Democrat. When
he entered the Senate Mr.. Vanden-
berg disposed of his interests IN
the newspaper.
Years of writing and editing fas-.
tened their habit on the Senator.
No ghost writer was ever required
to draft a speech for him. He has
gift of pungent phrase-making
and downright statement that is
unequaled by any man in Congress
or in public life elsewhere-today.
1t did not take Mr.. Vandenberg
any time at all to make an impress
sion in the Senate. He was one of
the so-called young Turks" in the
upper house of that day-as dis
tinguished from the older and more
conservative Republicans. He fought
through to victory bill to bring
about much-needed reapportion-
ment of the House of Representa-
tives membership among the States.
For 20 years nothing had been done
about it, although there had been
great shifts in population. Under
the Vandenberg- supported law, re-
apportionment is automatic every 10
years.
One of his greatest and most con-
structive victories did not come until
Franklin D. Roosevelt had entered
the White House-the Federal De-
posit Insurance Corp. 1t was his
amendment to the Banking Act
of 1888 providing for deposit insur-
ance that finally was enacted into
iaw-over the vigorous early opposi-
ton of President Roosevelt.
NEGATIVE Successes
While the Roosevelt administra-
ton was in power many of Mr..
Vandenberg' successes were on the
negative side-denial of extrava-
gances or unwise expenditures urged
by the New Dealers. Year after
year he took the lead in holding
down the payroll tax for social Sc

crops plowed under were commodity
crops, like cotton, and not food al
all.
O. Do you feel you may have be-
come a dupe of the Communist
Party on foreign affairs?
Mr.. Wallace: I don't have as big
an inferiority complex as all that
You don't have to be Communist
to be against a war with Russia.
@. You were an outstanding sup
porter of the war against Hitler. A
lot of people say that Stain is nc
different from Hitler. How do you
account for the fact that you are
against fighting Stain?
Mr.. Wallace: Now, don't stir me
up. That kind Of mentality is the
same that swas behind the prewar
anti -Comintern. The Hitler ap-
proach was that the whole world
should be made to serve the Ger
manic, Aryan elite. The Commu-
mist approach is to increase the
productivity and economic welfare
of people. True, the Communists
use totalitarian methods that deny
individual freedoms and I'm against
that. And I'm against communism
But their fundamental goal is not
one that makes war inevitable, in
my mind.
@. What do you make of Russian
expansionism?
Mr.. Wallace: I don't think we've
made a good try at finding out
what 1t amounts to. We haven't
had a real global conference al
which all the points of conflict have
been written down and argued. ]
think we could settle them all by
treaty if we had will to do it
That is, If our negotiators wanted
to succeed in reaching agreement
instead OF trying to hem in Russia
willy-nilly.
@. Do you think the Russians are
in a mood to agree on such a
treaty?
Mr.. Wallace: Well, / think it's
important To get at Stain while
he's still alive. / think he has
mellowed q lot.
Q. Do you think the Russians are
preparing for war with US?
Mr.. Wallace: You must be able
to put yourself in the other fellows
place. The Russians have been hit
and hit hard three times since their
revolution. We forget sometimes

service more attractive for recruits
Q. How do you do that?
Mr.. Wallace: For one thing, by
shaking up the brass in the War
Department that wants to fight the
next war by preparing for the. last
one.
@. II you are defeated next fall,
would you run again in 1852?
Mr.. Wallace: That's long way
of. Sometimes, though. I think
how nice it would be to relax and
be innocuous and harmless for
awhile. There's nothing like farm
ing for q mans soul. And I would
get q big kick just raising the best

how many were killed by the Allied
armies in Russia after the first war.
The depth of their fear of invasion
is inconceivable to us. If you read
Russian history, you can see where
our tough policy could turn them
into wild beasts. They're not that
yet, but it isn't our fault.
@. Do you think that the Com
munists are trying to capitalize on
misery and destruction in Europe?
Mr.. Wallace: The worst trouble
began when this country started
giving money to governments that
promised to crush communism.
How do you eliminate misery with
arms?
@. Then you believe in some kind
of European recovery program?
Mr.. Wallace: When I first ad-
vocated a recovery plan for Europe,
people called it "globaloney" and
milk for the Hottentots." Now
milk for the Hottentots is all right
as long as he's a certain kind OF
Hottentot.
Why He Opposes UNIT

struction of Europe should be.
handled?
Mr.. Wallace: It seems to me that
if, you want rehabilitation, you have
to spend it on that and not military
supplies. And If you are sincere
about rehabilitation, it ought to be
distributed on the basis of the
damage done by the Axis armies,
not according to the policies of the
hungry.
@. Don't you think the United
States should be prepared for any
military eventuality?
Mr.. Wallace: Until the United
Nations has bigger force than any
individual nation in the world. l
agree that the United States has
to have strong, highly trained,
well-equipped military establish
ment.

1t would be surprising if Moscow
Is not now concerned over this
emergence of an eloquent church.
For not only is the capital of COM
munism pressing against Western
Europe, it is also pressing southwark
toward the Middle East and another
vast and devoted religious popula-
ton.
In the area stretching eastward
from North Africa through the Mid
die East to India are some 100000
600 Moslems. History has amply
demonstrated through the centuries
that no dream of world conquest is
complete or invulnerable, even as a
dream, unless it comprehends the
domination of this crossroads of the
globe. Modern geopolitics has con-
frmed this conception, particularly
in the discovery and development of
the great petroleum reserves of the
area. Soviet Russia covets this
domination today even more than
in the years of the traditional
warm water port" incentive.
But a goddess communism, and
that is the Russian type, faces a
battling barrier in the millions of
Moslems to whom their religion is a
way of life and an influence vastly
more important to them than nor
mai economic or political considera-
tiors.

soon be finding that there are values

Mr.. Wallace: Baruch called me

had the same view. 1t was some
minor technical detail, and I don't

did this because the increase was
not needed and would merely have
