HOWDY FOLKS:

Fall has passed and winter IS
here. (And how!) Winter, that's
the time of year when the grass
hopper starts preaching liberal
ism to the ant.
It's also the time of year
when you keep the house as
warm as it was when you
kicked about it in the sum-
mer. eve used that before,
but still think it's gOOd.)
It's the season when peoples
minds turn to skiing. You know
what a skier is. He's the fellow
who starts at the top and works
mis- way to the bottom.
We also have heard that it's
a sport that you learn after
many sittings.
Or perhaps it's a sport that
you learn from the ground up.
You eat more in the winter,
too, because of the crisp air.
If too much eating should
cause you to feel the need of a
little change in your diet, put
some nickels and dimes in your
soup. That'll give you some
change. (Strictly corn.)
Silly, isn't it. Well here is
something sensible. Let us
take care of the family
laundry in this cold weather.
We do sheets at eight (Sc)
cents apiece. Can you beat
that?

Price Urges Rededication
To Principles Of u. n.
By the A,sociotsd Press

SAN FRANCISCO. June 26.-By-
ron Price called today for a re-
dedication to the principles of the
United Nations charter.
Speaking here on the third an
niversary of the signing of the
charter at the San Francisco memo
rial auditorium, the U. N. assistant
secretary-general declared the world
organization had not lived up to
expectations.
Mr.. Price told a San Francisco
Youth Association ceremony:
AThe results correspond quite in
adequately to the expectations, and
to the explicit terms of the charter
The United Nations has not become
what 1t was intended to be-
This is particularly true, Mr.. Price
said in the field of international
security measures. In the economic
and social field, he said, ''the United
Nations and its specialized agencies
have accomplished far more in in
ternational cooperation since San
Francisco than has been achieved in
any like period since the world be-
gan"
He added, however, "the United
Nations cannot endure half success
and half failure"
THE world has become too small
a community to go on living half
free of war and half slave to war;
Mr. Price said. This time we must
triumph grandly or fail miserably."

Anchorage Firm Makes Donation To Alaska Dev. Bd.

JUNEAU, - A private contri- button of money toward the work of the Alaska Development Board was received this week from Ray mond M. Wilson of Anchorage and credited to the Boards account by the Territorial Treasurer. Spen- ard Realty, the company with which Mr. Wilson is connected, has been receiving some assistance from the Board in the develop ment of an industrial site near Anchorage.
 In his letter accompanying his check Wilson wrote "I wish that I could make it thousand dollars! I believe that we are going to get some new blood in the legislature next election and get adequate appropriations for work such as yours"
 The act of the l945 legislature "liiIil SlCdlC lllC fhldShd DSNclOp- ment Board empowered it ito ac- cept donations from public agen- cies, civic groups, trade associa- tions, corporations and individuals, toward any class of work conduct ed by the Board"
 Although an attempt in the l947 legislature to abolish the Alaska Development Board was defeated, the session ended with no appro- priation for the Board having been made for this biennium. A small balance left from the original ap- propriation made it in 1945 has enabled the Board, under consider able handicaps and with only part time professional assistance, to carry on it's work of fostering in- dustry, business and vocational development in the Territory.
