An Editorial
Dish Washing

DISH WASHING is regarded as
probably the most i%nglorious of all
household tasks. Yet it need not be
so ~disagreeable if a little thought is
given to the procedure, and the
necessary, simple and inexpensive
equipment is provided.
The dish washing begins at the
table with the gathering up of the
dishes and the putting away of the
food. If they are to be carried to
the kitchen from the dining room,
a tray is a great help. Assemble
them in orderly fashion on the
kitchen table or at the sink where
the washing is to be done. Scrape
the dishes with a rubber scraper or
wipe with a piece of paper. Empty
cups and glasses. Stack in orderly
groups.
Correctly speaking, the dish wash
ing begins before the meal, for the
pots and pans used in preparation
should be rinsed, soaked and ar
ranged with some semblance Of
order.
Hot water, soap and plenty Of
table space are three necessities for
dish washing. If the water is soft,
so much the better.
A new method of dish washing
for those who have a sink is to use
the sink instead of a dish pan, plac-
ing stopper owe the drain. There
is on the market a very excellent
dish drainer made of rubber. With
this placed so that the excess water
drains into the sink, the dishes may
be washed and rinsed with very hot
water and the drying procedure dis
pensed with, except for the silver
and the glassware.
The pots and pans offer the great
est difficulties. Thorough soaking
seems to be the best solution, and
watching the kettles so that the po-
tatoes will not burn is another. A
blackened kettle tries the patience
of the most sanity, and only elbow
grease, a securing pad and time will
do the job.
Dish washing we will admit is
not exactly a job one would choose
as a career On the other hand, it
can be made more pleasant if one
uses a little imagination. Also we
would recommend that all dish
washing be done before a window
where one can see the road or the
field, or the distant mountains

 The l6 incorporating unions and the carriers, deadlocked in negotiations. agreed yesterday to submit remaining issues to Pres idential fact-finding board for a final and binding decision.
 The main issue reportedly hold ing up settlement of the l0-month- old dispute is over application of the 40-hour work week to the rail- road industry. Spokesmen for the unions and railroads will submit the disputed issues to the emer- gency board at a meeting today but there was no indication set clement would be reached at the initial session. They said several points may involve much discus sion.
 This is the third time the three man emergency board has been called to study the dispute.
 The carriers and unions how ever, in negotiations since the boards clarification, have been unable to reach an agreement on the issue.

Many Hunters
 Bag Their Game

UF) Special Washington Service)
 WASHINGTON, (P) - About two of every nine big game hunt CTS in U. s. and Alaskan national forests succeeded in bagging their quarry last year, the forest service said today.
 Annual reports of foreign su- perviSors showed that 100000 hunters killed at least 279,0OO ani- mals on government forest lands in 1948. Deer, elks, bear and other animals made up the total.
 Despite the kill, the forest serv- ice said, the big game population in U. s. national forests increased 68,000 over the 2,402,000 animals reported in 1947. But this was the smallest increase in years and represented a leveling off from the upward trend that has prevail ed for 25 years. the agency added.
 Reports by regions included:
 Alaska, $500 hunters killed 8,700 animals.

Flood Threatens; Montana
CBy The Associated Press


 Flood waters left hundreds homeless in four states today.
 A new flood threat developed in Montana and rising waters plagued many areas of Nebraska, still reeling after a Winter-long bout with Weather's elements.
 Surging waters from swollen streams spilled over thousands of acres of land in Nebraska, Iowa. Montana and Louisiana. But cold CT weather in many parts of the midwest checked some of the overflow.
 The Missouri river was gener- ally below flood stage over its course through eight states from northern Montana to southern H. inoiS. But many of the big rivers tributaries were on a mild ram page.
 Minor floods were caused north of Sidney, Mont, after ice 30 to 40 inches deep blocked the Yel- loWstone River and sent water over it's banks.
 Many Nebraska communities battled the rising waters. At Bea- trice nearly 100 families were evacuated as the Big Blue River overflowed. Four of the eight schools in the city of 1000 closed.
 Other families fled their homes in Seward and the flood waters reached within two blocks of the business district of Crete, college town of 5000.

Rep. Fisher Asks For Ample Radar Screen In Alaska
CContined from Page One)

CContined from Page One) ble attack"
 Fisher, who visited Alaska last summer and now is a member of the House armed services commit tee, said that from operating bases at Fairbanks an enemy could bomb most of the industrial heart of America"
 Alaska, he noted, is only 56 miles across the Boring Strait from the Soviet Union.
 He said the Russians ''are thor ougly familiar with most all of the airfields and installation in the Alaska area, because more than 1000 lend-lease planes were de- livered to Russian fliers at Fair banks during the war"
 No one in the United States, he continued, knows just what the Russians are building across the Boring Straits but we do have reason to believe there is much ac- tivity in that area"
 Russia's Eulen Field, he said, is only 200 miles from Nome, and the Soviet base of Anadyr, on the Siberian coast, is in the same vii cinity.
 No American plane has been permitted to fly over that Terri tory since 1914, he added.
 He said Alaska needs a compre- hensive sys m for warning against the approach of enemy planes.
 But, he added, it would be a mistake to depend too greatly on radar alone, and that troops must be there to operate the screen and defenses effectively.
 We can no longer think of Alaska as a sort of sentry-base," " Fisher said. Alaska is likely to be major base in any future war. There is every reason to believe that such a war would see planes and missiles sent back and forth across the North Pole.
 Let us not be lulled into false security by legislation such as the radar bill, nor by reports of tech nical progress in planes, guided missiles or other weapons which may be used in the future battles

succeeded in topping her catch
1t took ANGST 40 minutes to land
the king, after which. Mrs. Glenn

~ There are no commercial fisher

the natives take fish and game
principally for food. Import of

way Of the headwaters of the Taku
River, where a similar situation ex-
lists as to location of spawning
grounds-these are in Canada, for
commercial fisheries in the United
States.
OF the Taku area, Rhode said:
This looks better as an available
potential spawning area We did
not find such a large proportion
of barrier streams-but our aerial
survey there was far from compre-
hensive.
You can't always tell from the
air, anyway" he added. And you
never know how high a fish can
jump. We did get a general out
line of where spawning is and is
not favorable - we would like to
put men there to check these find

SALMON REACH ONLY
TWO STREAMS ON UPPER
STIKINE, RHODE FINDS

JUNEAU - After examing the
spawning areas around the Can
adam headwaters of the Stikine
River and its tributaries, a party
of fisheries experts returned to
Juneau last Thursday, July %,
with valuable information
This is our first investigation
of that area said Clarence Rhode,
Alaska director of the U. S. Fish
and Wildielf Service, who piloted
the FWS Grammar Goose. The
party based at Telegraph Creek.
Almost all the Stikine tributar-
les have become impossible" he
said, ''by waterfalls, log jams on
falls, rapids or beaver dams. Most
of the spawning areas are in two
main tributaries in the vicinity OF
Telegraph Creek the Clearwater
which joins the Stikine below Tele-
graph, and the Tahltan River.
Preliminary investigation would
indicate that fish cannot get to the
lake at the head of the Tahltan.
This might account for the dimin-
had the poorest sockeye run ever
at the mouth of the Stikine'.
The experts landed in Tahltan
Lake and traced out branches at
the lake of Is tributaries. Most
had natural obstacles.
In the group were Clarence L
Anderson, Territorial Director Ct
Fisheries; W. A Ekins, FWS Wild
life Management Supervisor and
Dan Bates, fisheries agent at
Wrangell.
The fisheries party stayed at
Telegraph Creek with Ernest Allen
of the B. c. Provincial Police, who
is in charge of fisheries for the
district. They took him on the sur
vey flight.
The Alaskans found it a fine
game country lots of sheep
goat, moose, chipmunks and horses
with rainbow trout thick in the
lakes.
