FAC Due 10 Decide
On Permanent Home
In Vote Tomorrow
Nv the Associated Press

The UnlteQ NatlOnS FOOQ anu
Agricultural Organization hopes to
solve it's own personal housing prob
lem tomorrow by deciding what to
do about a permanent home.
So far, it doesn't even know which
hemisphere the headquarters will
be in. An official who asked not to
be named said the majority seemed
to favor the United States, with
Washington or New York being
mentioned most often as specific
sites. Unofficial preferences voiced
yesterday gave the United States
. margin over Europe.
Two resolutions are scheduled for
4 vote tomorrow when the fourth
annual conference resumes. Ofncials
predicted that others may be pro-
posed, too.
A resolution by Chinese Delegate
Chih-mai proposes that the site be
In the Eastern coastal section Of the
United States.
A second resolution, by Canadian
Delegate DR.. G. S. H. Barton, sug-
gests that definite action be post
poned year.
Conference to Continue.
The conference continues for an
other week. Final action on a site
may be DELAYED until later in the
meeting. But vote is now sched-
uled for tomorrow.
In a choice between Washington
and New York, the Capital probably
would get the nod. An official Of
FAC said some feel New York
wouldn't be good headquarters for
an agricultural group"
Before the conference opened
Washington, New York, Geneva,
Rome and Copenhagen were the
only cities taken into consideration.
but now with the Chinese reSolu-
tion before the conference the home
may be in Boston, Philadelphia. At
lanta. Baltimore, Miami, Hartford,
Albany or any other sizable East
ern city.
The FAC plans to build $1,000
900 home when the site question is
decided. To the city in which the
home is erected, the FAC will bring
over $3,1O0000 worth Of business
each year With the headquarters
will come 500 permanent employees
and their families. The FAC also
intends to hire more than 100 local
employees.
Thirty-five of the delegates toured
the University of Maryland'S Col
lege of Agriculture yesterday and
visited four model farms in Fred
erick County.
DR.. T. B. Symons, dean Of the
college of agriculture, welcomed the
delegates to the university in the
absence of DIR. H. C. Byrd, univer-
sity president.
The object of the tour. DR.. Symons
declared, was to give the delegate
an opportunity to see the physical
layout of a modern United States
agricultural college and its accom-
panying experimental stations.
DR.. Symons said he hoped the
FAC would accept Dr. Byrd's in
vitation to use the university as It's
headquarters.
The tour included inspection OF
poultry-control experiments, hor-
ticultual laboratories, agricultural
engineering equipment and dairy.
barns, The delegates were taken to
lunch ia the university's dining hall.
The tour of Frederick County
farms included an inspection trip
to the farm of Mrs Nellie Thrasher,
which was made over in one day
last summer in q conservation dem
onstra ton.
The trip ended with the delegates
attending a dinner sponsored by
the Frederick Chamber Of Com

Office of the Governor of the
 Territory of Alaska
 The humanitarian work carried on by the Alaska Crippled Chil- dren's association in aiding the less fortunate is a most praise worthy undertaking. Under the able leadership of Mrs. Margot Hoppin, it's president, it has raised funds to help in rehabilitating many handicapped persons and has given it's full support to the Orthopedic Hospital at Sitka.
 For the purpose of raising addi- tional funds to carry on it's work, the Association is arranging for an Easter Seal sale from February 28 to March 28 of this year.
 Therefore, in support of this wort hy cause, l, ERNEST GRUENING, Governor of Alaska, urge upon the people of Alaska to participate in this human welfare campaign by purchasing Easter Seals during the period from Feb ruary 28 to March 28, 1948.
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and the Seal of the Territory of Alas ka, at Juneau, the Capital, this 4th day of February, 1948.

Imagine entertaining the idea that anyone under the control of an institution should be decontrol- led, or suggesting that mans body is his own to take where he pleases! We would be moving backward, away from progress" toward the time when there were no passports, and people went where they wished, to seek job or admire the scenery, and if they didn't find a job or like the scen- cry, they picked up and went else where.

 The railroad is owned by the government. Employees were of- fered increases to make their wages comparable to those paid on western railroads in the United States. They rejected this proposal and even asked higher pay.
 After a hearing here, the con- troversy was submitted to Krug for decision.
