Assistant Surgeon General J. w.
Mountin of the U. S. Public Health
Service, Federal Security Agency
replied that "the Public Health
Service has no evidence that there
is any appreciable health risk in
the proper use of DDT as house
hold insecticide" and there is no
reason why DDT labeled in accord
ance with Government require
ments should not be advertised and
sold to the public" .
DR.. w. C. Reed, Chief, Insecti-
eide Division, U. S. Department of
Agriculture, st a tee in summary
that "it would appear that there
is no valid reason why properly
labeled DDT household spray S
should be withheld from the pub
lic."
DR.. S. A. hwer, Assistant
Chief, Bureau of Entomology and
Plant Quarantie, expressed similar
views. All of the Government au-
thorities stressed the necessity for
carefully following directions for
the use of DDT. Similarly, the Ma
tional Better Business Bureau is
urging advertisers to m TX e no
statements tending to encourage
careless use of these household in
secticides but to include in their
advertisements a cautionary state
ment to use only as directed.

WATER
Washington

Sen. Sheridan Downey of Cali
fornia has proposed that Arizona
let 10000 acres go back to desert.
This was characterized by Wayne
M. Akin, the Association president,
as "about as sensible and humani-
tartan as cutting persons throat
to cure his thirst" Furthermore,
Mr.. Akin pointed out that "re-
sponsoble Californians know that a
suggestion of this kind has no
merit" Mr.. Akin said that "the
idea in itself is foolish, as it is
impossible to take one mans water
and give it to someone else."
Meanwhile, Sen. Ernest w. Nc
Farland was working on getting
the precise language of the pro-
posed amendments to S. IS ap-
proved, and Congressman John R.
Murdock was standing by waiting
to present those amendments, when
they are ready, to the House Sub
committee on Irrigation and Recla-
nation, which he leads. All in ALL
the Washington situation, while
still moving slowly, continues favor
able, despite occasional blasts
against the Central Arizona Project
from California interests.
California
The Colorado River Association
is maintaining a large and expen-
sive Washington B u a u, with
headquarters in Hotel CongresSion-
al. Outputs of literature have in
creased appreciably ever since Ari-
zona's position became stronger. In
fact, an almost sure measure of
Arizona's present good position with
regard to the Central Arizona Prof.
ect is the intensive and expensive
activity of the Colorado River AS
sociation.
The California interests opposing
our use of our own water have dis
tributed to California public schools
a motion picture which tells their
side of the Colorado River story
in effective propaganda. One nine
year-old girl who saw the movie in
Northern California told an Arl-
zona relative that it showed that
California needed the water more
than Arizona. This distortion of
the truth by the moviemakers and
this careful avoidance of the legal
and moral issues involved are typi-
cal of California propaganda.

the gardens had been raided and
food was scarce.
Food was very scarce because
of the recent fighting. We had
nothing but green bananas to eat
hard, tasteless, and woody, pre-
pared by roasting in the fire. We
did get some bush fowls, eggs
which often had chicks in them;
but even that tasted good, at this
stage of hunger. A special long
worm was delicious roasted in the
fire. After several days we moved
right down into the Jimi Valley,
These people had not seen a white
man since 1899. At that time,
they had killed the two white
men who attempted to cross
their country. On our arrival we.
again found a deserted village.
Finally three men came to look
me over. They were amazed that
i could speak to them in the Hag-
en- language which they under
stood. That made us friends at
once. One of the men had a large
spear wound in his arm which
he had received in the recent
fighting with the people across
the Jimi River. This / treated
for him. Later the women came
bringing us green bananas. They
had nothing else because their
gardens had been destroyed. We
were told that most of the wom-
en- were widows; their husbands
having been killed in the recent
fighting. All of these people look
ed sickly-small and emaciated.
They were such a contrast to the
healthy Hagen natives. We found
much yaws there and gave them
injections.
We did not go across the Jimi
River because it was still "Un-
controlled area" or country which
the government had not ade-
quately covered; besides the ma
tives had been fighting and we
might have caused more trouble
by attempting to contact them.
Besides our carriers and evange-
lists could not subsist much long
er on this starvation diet and we
decided to return after nearly
two month of travelling. My two

Dear Friends:
COME OVER AND HELP US!
The natives from the Jimi Val
ley have been calling for mission
aries; for someone to tell them the
Gospel story. News has come to
them that those who have heard
and accepted the story are no
longer at war; that they live in
peace and live happily. Rev. Doer-
ing at Ogelbeng had seen and
visited some of these people in
1948. In February, 1949 / was
privileged to visit these natives.
Two experienced evangelists,
Gimtausua from Finschhafen and
Bunabun from Amele accompan-
led me along with 40 local nat
ives who carried the equipment
necessary for the trip. This equip
ment included medicines, blank
cts, clothing, trade goods such as
salt, shells, beads, mirrors, knives,
razors and axes. These trade arti-
cles were used to buy food for
ourselves and the carriers as we
went on this trip of some 80
miles.
The first day we walked for 8
hours through territory which
was under mission influence.
About four o'clock we came to a
village where Kui from Amele

Possessive Tactics
Do Not Interest
Eligible Bachelor
By Dr. Paul Popenoe

Jacouelyn is an attractive girl.
She gets a good many dates. But
few of them are second dates
and almost never a third.
At 29. a girl can't afford that
kind OF social life. Not II she
looks forward to marriage-and
Jackie certainly does.
What's the matter? Maybe
I'm not cordial enough" she
thinks to herself. Maybe I don't
give them enough encourage
ment." Next time she tries to be
even more encouraging. I've had
such a wonderful time" she as
sures her escort when they part.
Il do hope I'll see you again real
soon."
II sure hope So" he replies cau-
tiously, and makes quick get
away.
Well. what is the matter?
The matter is that Jacquelyn
hasn't sized up her men accu-
rately. Her tactics would have
been good ones 10 years earlier.
But at 20 she is going with men
who are at least in their 30s.
They haven't married yet. so it is
evident that they have SHE'D
away from marriage. They are
continually on guard. They have
come to believe-correctly enough
that there is hook in the bait.
Jacquelyn hasn't realized that
the hook mustn't show. As she
becomes a little more desperate,
she shows the hook still more
plainly. She Is typing herself as
the clinging. possessive female.
That's exactly the type to be
Stunned by a confirmed bachelor
and after all, an unmarried man
in his 30s has to be considered a
confirmed bachelor until proof to
the contrary is evident.
Jacquelyn will have to become
more impersonal. She will have
to leave the hooks at home. If a
man remarks that he is going to
see baseball game. she'll have to
stop saying, yearningly, "Oh, I'd
just love to see a baseball camel"
It's no use to invite herself in that
way, because her invitation won't
be accepted. She'll be safe in
saying, II bet you'll enjoy it.
That's a real mans game"

It seems TO me the answer to the
following query is more or less
plain: why is it the fashion to
put all ones lovely possessions be-
hind closed doors? My daughter,
away at college this year, comes
home and Immediately wants to
take our lovely silver tea set and
candelabra off the sideboard; she
insists that these things no longer
belong OUT She also is after me
to put away the old English after
dinner coffee set which I've kept
out on the table in the living
room. For the sake of fashion why
must we live in bare rooms?"
One answer, of course. Is that
the fashion" for u n + m m d
rooms is very possibly the result
of the times. The great majority
of people today do not have the
number of servants nor have they
themselves the time (or inclina-
tion) to give such pieces the un-
cessing polishing which they re-
quire, if left exposed to the air.
Whereas, if put away in tarnish-
preventive wrappings, they are
ready to be brought out and used
at any time for the purpose in
tended.
Items of ornament which do not
have to be washed or handled
very much may be most practical
ly Iacquered by any silversmith
so that they will never require
polishing! 1t is true that you will
have to keep on cleaning your tea
set, including its tray and every
thing else that comes into con-
tact with fingers or food. In all
