DECORATING HINTS.
From Mrs. A. +. W. FarjarJ
In answer TO Mrs. A. D. and her
decorating problem. hope the
following will be Of some help.
Have you ever considered paint
ing your walls with . fiat paint?
There are some very lovely colors
that are washable. Voice Of ex-
perience speaking Il have four
youngsters. Now. for your dining
room, ! would suggest painting
the lower part Of the wall bur
gundy o. rose. There Is an ivy
patterned paper that would be
very effective for the upper por-
ton of the walls. There Is also q
plaid paper with colors green and
burgundy on a white background
which would be equally effective
For your dining chairs, suggest
using plastic material covered
yellow or burgundy. These have
the advantage Of being easily
cleaned with q damp cloth and
look as nice rs fabric. however.
these colors In fabric would be
nice. too.
Pale green walls In your living
room would be q perfect foil for
your yellow draperies. only be
sure 1t is q shade or 10 different
from your carpet. The furniture
in this room could be slip-coyered
In materials that pick up the col
ors used in the dining room. A
combination OF print and plain
colors would be best for this.
The portraits OF the children
over the sofa would be very nice
and you could probably use your
mirror over the buffet. The best
way to find out Is TO put 1t there

The fried egg ranks highest in
American gastronomic esteem, ap-
parently, closely followed by
scrambled. poached and soft
boiled. But somehow the truly
delicious shirred egg has failed
to acquire a great following. And
this Is q pity, for it not only
makes q fine breakfast dish, but
also does duty for luncheon and
the Sunday night supper.
Shirred eggs are usually served
in shallow individual dishes OF
pottery or heat resistant glass.

cooked, seasoning them with

There are many variations on the
theme. Instead Of pouring more

fore oven time. use hot. heavy
cream.
With the shirred eggs there Is
nothing better than two plump
brown sausages cuddled in the
same plate. or a couple OF strips
of perfectly cooked crisp bacon

handcaps You can't make war on capital and ex- pect it to risk large sums.
 In the timber industry alone we might ask why is it American capital has made pulp and timber in- dustry the second largest in Canada? With nc better timber and power resources than can be had in Alaska?
 Because Canada invites and gives proper pro- lection to Outside capital American capital mas opened up other industrial lines in Canada by-passng Alaska.
 Instead of giving capital {. chance in Alaska, the government bureaus and politicians have used It as whipping post for their own ambitions
 Even the untiring and determined efforts of B. Frank Heintzeman to get pulp companies interested have been hamstrung time and time again by some of these self-seeking politicians.
 When will Alaska really awake?
 When will it help put in the discard self seekers and elect office really sincere in forwarding its best interests?

 Editor Sid D. Charles of the Ketchkan News also takes the same slant in his editorial column which follows:
 The Bureau of Reclamation tells about Alaska s wonderful potential resources in timber coal oil and power
 That's an old story to Aaskans.
 But the timber still waves in splendid isolation and dies Under a spasm of misguided conservation the coal was double-locked years ago under strict leasing law. So the oil

ANTI-HIGHWAY LOBBY

Congress is now pruu4i.S the fact that the oil industry, which owes its prosperity to the gasoline burned on highways. is so shortsighted that it opposes new highways. Reason: !: To pay for the roads, many states are boosting gasoline taxes.
 The extra taxes aren't paid by the oil companies, but by the mo- torists. Yet the industry has al- ready boosted gas" prices so high they fear the public won't stand for both higher prices and higher taxes.
 So. believe it or not the oil lobby is actually fighting against building new roads.
 Take North Carolina, for exam pie: Gov. Kerr Scott, a hard hitting liberal, submitted S200,000 00C road program to the voters. To fi- nance it, he proposed a one-cent- per-gallon increase in the state gas- oline tax. The oil lobby immed- lately and bitterly opposed, and appealed to city voters to block the program.
 When the vote finally came. city people did vote 5-l against new rural roads. But the farmers amassed 225,O00 votes to the urban voters 175,O00.
 Meanwhile, in the rest of the na- tion, highways are in worse general condition than at any time since the depression. Yet the oil lobby continues to oppose new roads.
 But here are the statistics: Since 1945, the number of automobile: on the highways has increased by 10,5O0,000 Of these, 2.5OO,OOO art trucks. All told, 100,000,0OO ton miles were travelled in 1948-almosi double the lS45 traffic. Yet only 2 paltry few million dollars have been added to the road bill. Be- cause of imitation, even this in- crease in dollars really has been 2 decrease in purchasing power wher 1t came to road building.
 Result has been wear and tear or automobiles, irritating traffic snarls and an increase in traffic deaths What the public doesn't realize t that safety can be built into tht roads. Yet the public, while payine more for automobiles and gasoline has let the highways run down.

 Slayer Wins Appeal; To Get New Trial

SAN FRANCISCO, June 23-tR- Leon w. Jones, convicted of mur- dering two men with an axe at an Indian village in Alaska two years ago, has been granted new trial
 The United States Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals said the trial judge had failed to instruct, the jury on the difference between first and second degree murder.
 "The revolting character of these killings does not diminish our re- sponsibility or care to make sure the accused had a fair trial" the Justices commented.
 The Federal District Court jury at Fairbanks found Jones guilty of murdering Carl O. Ahnstrom and Donald R. Harris. It recom- mended against capital punish ment. Jones said he was too in- toxicated to know what he was doing.
 Ahnstrom's back was split open and Harris was axed in the neck at Little Gerstle river crossing.
