left the writings on the urns in the
cave.

Santa Claus as Americans know

California.
The Norwegians who settled
early in America brought the first
version of the modern Santa Claus,
who in Europe had been known as

Arlt.
'''When the American Clement
Moore described the jolly, rotund
gentleman in minute detail in his

Youngster Gets
Tips on Railway
Prexy's Ski|Is

CHICAGO. Seldom does a young
ster get the opportunity for the
kind of advice that came to Is
year-old Eugene Knoll, of Blue

Eugene had wanted to be a rail
road president ever since he can
remember. A high school freshman.
he has his heart set on thai Job
Now, he has taken the first step in
that direction.
write a paper on what he planned
to do in adult life. He needed ex
pert advice. so he wrote to c. H.
Buford. president of the Milwaukee
railroad.
The letter finally found its way
through all the intricate channels
in a huge railway office TO the desk
of President Buford.
Buford said later he read the let
ter with a nostalgia feeling. It had
been years, he said. since railroad
presidents received letters from
boys with that ambition.
Ambition Fading
He recalled that at one time ii
was the mark of a typical Ameri-
a boy. But today, Buford said.
that ideal seems to have disap-
peared in a world of atomics and
jet planes.
Buford was glad to write the let
ter. he said. and took considerable
time from his duties. He was ION
the spot" so he thought about it for
a long time. then sat down and out
lined the steps he believed brought
him to the top job.
This is his advice:
l. Keep strong and physically fit.
This is a must for railroad men.
Q. No young man a succeed in
any line unless he is scrupulously
honest, conscientious and consider
ate Of others. Develop confidence
in yourself, but don't be a smart
aleck.
8. Industry and cooperation are
important. Teamwork is as essen
tial on a railroad as on a football
field.
Don't be Misery
4. Learn and remember the value
of the dollar. Don't be misery, but
get value received for what you
spend, and don't squander either
your W or your employers
money.
5. Cultivate and develop a pleas
ing and friendly personality.
6. Finish college, and, perhaps, a
technical or professional school.
Specialize in some type of engi-
neering, accounting, business adj
m~inistration, law, or some other
field. 1t is possible to achieve the
presidency through any of these
lines.
z. Spend your summer vacations
working on a railroad. You must
know a great deal about all types
of railroad work.
8. When you get that vacation
job. get a letter of recommendation
or go on your own. Sell yourself to
your employer. Tell him that you
are not afraid to work and that you
are ready to start.
9. When your preparations are
finished. go after your permanent
job the same way you went after
the vacation job.
From then on it's up to you.
The railroad president concluded:
II sincerely hope that your am
bition may be achieved and that
some day, when I am not around,
those of your generation will read

Mr.. LANCE, according to the Lit

present job by Mr.. Tramnel and
appeared on the political horizon
quite suddenly.
His sole previous claim to fame
was, in the opinion of the Literary
Gazette, the dubious one of hav-
ing collaborated with a certain
Haakon Meyer, a Trotskyite who
later became a Quislingite, in pro-
ducing a history of the Norwegian
Labor Party and of having had
connections in Washington and
London.
The Literary Gazette says that,
"in pushing Norway onto the path
of perilous foreign policy adven-
lures, Mr.. Tramnel could scarcely
have found better legman."

has been constructed by Mr.. Sture
Helm, engineer with the L. M.
Ericsson concern in Stockholm.
Instead of ink, which is apt to dry
up rather quickly, the new instru-
ment uses zinc roller producing
distinct imprints on a specially
processed paper.
Standard types of the instru-
ment are designed for 2-6 mes
sages. The instrument is particu-
larly suitable for fire alarm install
lations in which alarm signals may
arrive simultaneously from sew

Scandinavians Plan Neutral Security /

according to the Swedish paper
Aftonbladet, that the United
States could not help any country
without specific approval of the
United States Congress.
The Danish press has interpreted
this as meaning that Scandinavian
countries would be on the bottom
of the priority list for American
or British help in case of war,
while at the same time they would
be bound by the pact to fight other
peoples battles.
On the other hand, the Oslo
correspondent of the Swedish Elk
pressen reports any hopes of a
Scandinavian military alliance
compatible with Swedish neutral
conditions are just wishful think
ing. The paper adds that observ-
ers in Oslo feel all parties are try
ing to tactfully cover up the fact
that their efforts toward future
military cooperation among the
Scandinavian states are leading
nowhere.
Iceland Viewpoint
In the meantime, discussion for
and against joining the Atlantic
Pact has become lively in Iceland.
Party opinions, as expressed in
the New Year speeches of politi-
cal leaders, show the Social-Dem-
ocratic Premier, Stefan Stefans-
son. and the conservative former
Premier, Olafur Thors, as strongly
supporting the Western Alliance.
Both Communists and Agrarians
oppose the alliance.
At a meeting of Reykjavik's
Academy Association on Jan. z,
with representatives of the whole
nation present, the following
statement, as drawn up by three
political leaders after heated dis
cussion, is considered to give g
good idea of Iceland's viewpoint
Members of the Reykjavik'
Academy Association consider Ice
lands foreign policy should be di
. rected toward closest cooperation
among Scandinavian states ant
also with other western democ
: racies, based upon our mutual
t free cultural democratic heritag
and common commercial interests

that their island would be occu

The governments of the Scandi-
navian states have found a way to
preserve formal neutrality in the
present Communist democratic
world struggle and still to side
with the western powers, it is
believed.
Social Democraten, newspaper
of the Danish Government Party,
reports that a formula has been
found for bridging over opposing
Swedish Norwegian viewpoints
regarding neutrality and joining
the Western Alliance. This agree
ment was reached, according to
the Danish paper at meeting of
Scandinavian top cabinet minis
tiers held in the Swedish city of
Karlstad the first week in
January.
A reconciliation Of the Swedish
viewpoint, which demands COM
plete neutrality, and of the Nor
wegian viewpoint, which demands
close alliance with the West, has
been found in a Scandinavian Re-
gional Defense Pact, it is said
Such a pact would authorize Nor
way and Denmark to acquire arms
from the United States, but would
not require Sweden to do so.
!Averts Advance Tie
Such an agreement would not
exclude western help to Scandi'
navia in case of need, but woulc
eliminate advance adherence o.
any Scandinavian country to the
Western Alliance.
1t is believed that this arrange
ment will preserve Scandinavia
unity and also provide for Scandi
nayian security. Sweden will hav
attained its aim of being both neu
tral and protected, it is thought.
Key ministers in the Soandi
navian governments met in COpen

foreign ministers are to meet l
