"In this regard. the mission was

ANA Journal Says Soviet
Medicine Not AS Good As
Red Russia's Propaganda

NEW YORK, Dec. 24.---(P.-
The Russians long have boosted
of the alleged excellence of their
medical program
But today, the spotlight has
been turned on some glaring
shortcomings in the medical ser
vice offered the people in that
Communist paradise. Here is
what the Journal of the American
Medical association has to say
about it:
Quoting a former Russian min
lister of public health, the Jour
nal says Russian medicine is be-
set with shortages of equipment
in every field. Drugs are claimed
to be of poor quality and their
faulty distribution is said to
have caused serious shortages.
The ANA Journal goes on to say
that while medical clinics and
hospitals in Russia have increas-
ed in recent years, rural areas
still are lacking even minimum
medical care and large areas are
practically without facilities for

NOTHING
SPECIAL
BY NINA

I<prepared what / thought a
right good Christmas piece as a
Nothing Special last year. The
boss took one look at it and
promptly handed it back with an
other look that meant Nothing
Doing
This year l hauled it out again
in an effort to put it across. Still
Nothing Doing. l am beginning to
think maybe he doesn't approve
of that particular piece of writing.
Every Christmas season from
now on l am going to present that
selfSame Nothing Special to the
boss critical editorial eye. BY
1866, 1 should say offhand, l will
have worn his resistance down to
the breaking point. and will then
present to my public my long
suffering Christmas story.
Until then, and particularly for
this year. Merry Christmas to
everybody.

TAkU VACATION IS
DELIGHT TO HAINES
GIRL VISITING HERE

After returning from her first
trip to Taku Lodge, Mary Barrier,
OF Haines and former aviation writ
er of Chicago, Illinois. reports there
is nothing in Alaska or the States
in her estimation to compare with
the resort.
1T is unbelievable she states,
that in the middle of the beauti-
ful Taku valley one could find a
lodge with every modern conven-
fence and spaciously decorated with
up to date furnishings as we'll as
fascinating Alaska curios.
Although the grandeur of the five
magnificent glaciers is breathtak-
ing, Mary claims her greatest thrill
was donning her swim suit for a
two hour swim in the warm lake
nearby Il had to take a picture
OF it to convince friends in the
States that one can completely en-
JOY swimming in Alaska"
Being fisherwoman as well, Mrs.
Barrier found the fishing excellent
but reports that it was probably due
to the fact that a very competent
guide knew exactly the right spot.
Evenings at the Taku Lodge
were delightfully."- gay as the guests
were entertained by the scintillat-
ing OReillys, who furnished music
IN their own unique manner.
There's plenty of room for dancing
and the friendly atmosphere which
pervades allows no one to remain
stranger.
Anyone in Juneau or Southeast
crn Alaska who misses the Taku
Lodge are denying themselves one
OF the greatest thrills of Alaska.
Mrs. Barrier said
Mrs. Barrier plans to return to the
lodge with her husband, Bert, OF
Haines, for two-week stay in Sep

10 tne capital city, she Will re-
turn to Haines via Alaska Coastal

rer is employed as secretary to

wary eye on Czechoslovakian diplo-
mats, tennis stars Jaroslav Drobny
and Vladimir Cernik, who re-
nounced the Communist Czech
government, faced each other to-
day in the semifinals of the Swiss
championships.
Drobny defeated Cernik 60, 6-1
and will play Earl Cochell of the
United States in the finals tomor-
row.
The two gave strict orders to
the Swiss that they we're not TO
De contacted for any reason what
soever by members of the Czech
Legation-and their wishes appar-
emily were being carried out.
The actual tournament has been
pushed to the background while
players and officials speculate on
the results of the move. In joint
statements, Drobny, mainstay OF
the Czech Davis Cup team and a
fine hockey player, and Cernik de-
MED they ever were Communists,
and said they wished to take re-
fuge in the United States.
The statement came on the heels
of orders from Prague for the pair
to return home Immediately be-
cause two Germans and "a Spaniari
were participating in the tourna-
ment.
