The Story Of A Great
Traveller

Will Pickett left these parts,
as Little John" Cox once did, ito
avoid some papers. He return
ed, not exactly of his own free
will, on March 9. He had travel
ed much during the tWenty-one
years of his absence and seen
much of "the cities of men, and
climates, councils, governments"
But he said when he left here a
week ago, that he was taking a
one-way ticket to Yukon, w. Va,
and that he would travel no more.
Will was kind enough to give
us the history Of his travels. 1t
appears that he was ever rest
less soul and that he started
ourneying in his tender years.
Sixty-four years ago at the age of
thirteen, he left his grandmoth-
er's home on Big Ridge, going
through Blue Head Gap and on
down to Elkhorn City. There he
set out on the road and finally
made his way into Huntington,
w. Va. In that city, by push and
impudence, he got a job on
barge that followed the Ohio and
Mississippi between Pittsburg
and New Orleans. His wages be-
gan at fifty cents a day and at
last rose to $3.50. Within three
years the youth returned home.
He had nickel when he left, but
he brought back 5000.
We were especially interested
in the tales of Wills travels dur
ing the last twenty-one years. He
gave them, step by step:
l. From Dickinson County to
Chehalis, Washington, where he
worked two years at lumber
mill.
2. Back to the Dakotas, there
following trades not mentioned,
for There are things of which
may not speak,
3. Then to the state of Illinois,
and again Will did not mention
his calling.
4. Next, in and about Cincinna-
ii, where for a period of seven
years he worked on construction
jobs. While at this work, he was
caught under an overturning
dump truck and suffered brok-
en- pelvis and thigh.
S. At a timber job around Cheat
Mountain, w. Va.
6. One year in a logging camp
in Logan County, w. Va.
z. Again in Cincinnati, where
he worked on construction lob.
8. In and about lager, w. Va.
Here, he lived the life of a gent
leman of fortune.
8. Logging for John Hall and
Rodolph Salyer on Bart Lick.
Once or twice during the time he
was on this job, Will came to
Clintwood. He recalls that on one
visit to this place he talked with
Marvin Phillips. Marve remem-
Ibers the meeting.
10. In and about Yukon. w. Va.
for the last seven years.
So long, Will. Take care of your
self

Delay in Peace Accord
Not 10 Ruin Israel,
EIath Says on Return

Israel will not be ruined, as
many think. if the final peace set
Element with the Arabs is delayed
according to Eliahu Elath, Israeli
Ambassador.
If the Arabs can wait for
peace, we can wait for it," the
Ambassador emphasized at press
conference, in which he described
his recent six-week trip to Israel
Il am more optimistic than
pessimistic about the renewal OF
conferences at Lausanne, he
stated. Israel shall continue to
contribute its share to its success
although we regret some Of our
proposals have not been taken
up
Ambassador Elath pointed out
the number of Arabs in Israel is
increasing constantly. He ex-
planned that some of the Arabs
feel they can live more comfort
ably In Israel than in their own
states. The problem of the Arab
natives rejoining their families
will be solved mainly by settle
ment, the Ambassador added.
Housing Big Problem.
In a prepared statement. Mr..
Flath said progress has been made
in Israel since the cessation Of
hostilities with the neighEoring
Arab states. 1t continued:
THE difficulties of the new i'm
migrants are not so much in the
field of employment as in hous-
ing, which is the most pressing
state problem today and one which
my government hopes to solve by
using every available means to
build large-scale housing develop
ments and to import prefabri-
Gated houses.
"A large part of the new i'm
migration (250.000 in IL months)
has been absorbed into agricul-
ture. This has increased
agricultural productivity by Is per
cent in the last three months and
will, in the end. make Israel less
dependent on outside sources for
food"
Notes Division of Holy Places.
Mr.. Elath, in his statement. en-
phasiZed that Israel has no quar-
rel with the Christian world over
the holy places.
1T is the firm belief of my gov
eminent that a realistic approach
to the problem Of Jerusalem will
resolve outstanding difficulties
satisfactorily to all parts con-
cerned," the statement continued.
1T is we'll to remember that IS
percent of the hoy places are in
Arab territory"
The Ambassador is scheduled to
report his findings to Secretary of
State Acheson tomorrow.

LONDON. July 26.-The Labor
Party's overwhelming majority in

The Conservatives have tried to
delay the date of the govern
ments taking over of the industry
until after new general elections.
Commons is expected to return
the bill to its original state. A
new bill, limiting the power of
