81 AM REALLY GOOD"

(By VIM. L. Paul, ST., Republican
seeking nomination.
That is what the rooster is saying
in the barn yard after swallowing
the worm while his hens looked on.
That is what all animals are doing
telling each other how good they
are. The deer saws, Il am the swift
est runner the bear saws, When
roar, the earth trembles"; the frog
says, Il am the smallest Of animals,
but nobody harms me as / walk
down the main highway; the VOL
VERNE saws, Il am free and unafraid
and mankind shall feed me" as he
visits the traps set to catch him.
But man, he too struts and shows
off his manly beauty to his women
while they too twist and turn and
show off their good points too and
subconsciously say, 81 am very good;
wouldn't you like to have me"-but
not aloud. Oh, No. Man has been
taught to be a hypocrite and thus
to detest braggard or show-off. But
he eagerly points his ears which
yrow long like a jack-ass to hear
some sweet thing say, You were
wonderful; 10000, you ran SO
swiftly; you sang so beautifully"
Your speech was won-der-f-u-l-".
know most of the men who have
lied for the legislature, and they
ire really fine, regular Americans.
But when l look at their ads, I
have to say, How they must hate
to be compelled to tell the world
how good they are.
And yet, what else is there? Do
the fishermen remember that / got
he rule prohibiting 'hook-offs' re-
,ealed when everybody else had fail
ID? or that l helped to write the
law prohibiting exclusive grants of
fishery? or that I got Congress to
7rant the first appropriation for re-
ief of restitution among the Indians
lcw amounting to $4,000 a year
utter everyone else had failed for
many years? or that through the
Credit Fund of the Wheeler-Howard
Act over 81 million has been in
vested among the natives of Alaska;
or that DR.. Ellis (of Ketchikan) and
I started the movement to bring the
office of Indian Affairs into Alaska
because Alaska needed its fine med1-
cal department that spends about 81
million per year? or that I got 300
Jobs for natives in CCC work when
the Forestry Service was refusing to
employ any except whites and fired
even Indians of mixed blood? that
through these I deserve some credit
for the fine parks in Ketchikan,
Saxman, Klawock, Hydaburg, and
Wrangell?
That $50 clause in the Workmen's
Compensation Act. wrote it. That
limitation of six months for partial
liability, 1 made the motion to re-
move it. Free hospitals, free trans
uortation, free doctors, wrote those
clauses. Pensions for aged indians,

orphans, wrote those amendments

public school at Yakutat. / helped
select the site for the Institute at
Wrangell. And much else, like writ
ing the resolution creating the
building fund for the Pioneers

that the Republicans will make a
good record instead of FOURTEEN
years of wasted effort.

U. s., Britain Clash
With Soviet on u. n.
Study Of Asia S Needs
Nv the Assoejc,sd Press

SYDNEY, Australia, Dec. To-
Russia, Britain and United States
delegates yesterday argued over o
1s47 economic survey by the secre-
tariat Of the United Nations Eco
nomic Commission for Asia and the
Far East.
Soviet Delegate Kirill Novikov
charged the survey was neither in
telligent nor progressive. He said
1t aimed only at suppressing
peoples democratic movements"
This is the Russian phrase for the
Communist movement.
The American and British dele
gates replied with equal sharpness.
The American said the Russians
seek material gains In the Far East
while the United States seeks only
peace. Britain's representative
called the Russians charges fan
tastic.
Agreements Called Fair.
Mr.. Novikov charged that the
United States extends assistance
only on q conditional basis. Soviet
agreements, he said, are fair and
equitable.
Myron M. Cowen, chief American
delegate, retorted that the contrast
between the two countries was in
deed marked.
"The United States has given
countries in the region financial aid
totaling more than $4,000, 900 900
since the war;" he said. Almost all
this has been on a grant basis.
THE United States has obtained
and expects to obtain nothing in re-
turn except that paramount object
Q prosperous and peaceful Far East.
"On the other hand bilateral
agreements Of the q. 8. q. r. require
immediate shipment Of goods In re-
turn"
Soviet To Criticized.
p. ]. II. Stent, chief British dele
gate, said the only report the Soviet
government would flnd objective
would be one founded On Marxist
totalitarian Communism a. the
only cure to all the Ills Of Asia.
Turning to the Soviet, Mr.. stsnt
said: Does he suggest that the
British should reconquer India and
Pakistan7 A more fantastic state
ment I never listened to in all my
life"
DR.. r. r. Rusman Joined the con-
ference as representative Of the In
donesian republic. The republic
was elected as an associate member.
There was no delegate from the
rest of 1ndonesia which was ad-
mitted at the same time as the Re-
public. A Netherlands government
delegation walked out Of the con-
ference when the republic was ad-
mitted.

Coal Mine Owner Attributes
Wealth TO PenniIess Duys

PITTSBURGH. - Jimmy Lynch,
wealthy coal mine owner, believes
the reason he's worth SIS, 900 today
is because he was flat broke 10
years ago.
If he hadn't been penniless, Lynch
claims, he never would have bor-
rowed money and bought up IS
acres of bottom land, from which
he hoped to make a few dollars by
selling the top soil to property own
ers. Underneath the top soil Lynch
discovered one of the best seams of
coal for strip mining in western
Pennsylvania.
Lynch bought the top soil land
for $4,000. Engineers found the hid
den vein held 600, 900 to one million
tons of coal, and estimated the mine
could be worked for four years, with
a $75, 900 return to Lynch.

Dope Addiets Use
Fountain Pen as
JHypodermie Needle
Many Confrubund Devices Now In
Custody Of Narcotic
Hospital

LEXINGTON, KY. - How woult
you like to take a hypodermic in
lection with a toothbrush, a fountain
pen, an automatic pencil or an eye
dropper?
These improvised syringes are
among the contraband devices now
in custody of the narcotic hospital
operated by the u. S. public health
service. They were surrendered by
addicts entering the institution for
cure.
A three-shelved cabinet contains
hypodermic equipment ranging
from ordinary drug store syringes
to the toughest of homemade in
struments designed to inject dope
into the body. Included are elabo-
rate kits holding syringes, spare
needles and the medicine" itself.
A prominent place in the display
is commanded by what appears to
be a simple wooden block. Manipu-
lations reveal secret compartments
for carrying syringe, needles and
dope.
The handmade syringes include
one followed out of the tapering
end of a toothbrush handle, con-
nected at n end with an ordinary
needle and at the other with an
eyedropper bulb. An automatic
pencil point became the needle of
another after a vein had been
opened to admit its entry. A pen
point and rubber sac was used in
the same way.
The display also includes ex-
amples of methods used in ex-
tremely rare cases to smuggle mar
cotics into the hospital. An alert
guard detected a shoe containing
a small tin box which was con-
cealed in a hollowed-out heel. A vial
of morphine hidden in a tube of
toothpaste also was detected. One
outsider attempted to mail NOR
phine in a valentine to a prisoner
patient.
An amazingly accurate set of bal
ance scales, handmade from bam-
boo and carried in a banjolike bam-
boo case, was used to measure
morphine doses before it was con
fiscated.
Narcotic agents have added to the
exhibit with opium pipes and an
opium lamp on which the dope was
cooked before smoking.

Cost of Transportation

The cost of transporting all food
products adds about 10 per cent to
the price consumers pay, and the
expense of moving fruits and vege-
tables rapidly enough to avoid ex-
cessive waste makes up 80 per cent
of the final price charged for those
classes of foods. One of the agricul-
tural research projects approved
for immediate action is an investi-
cation of ways to cut food trans
