Petersburg Faces Water Shortage

PETERSBURG, Alaska, (P) - Like New Workers, the residents of this Southeastern Alaska fish ing town are worried about their water supply.
 Some housewives drew tubs of water Saturday in preparation for an anticipated drought. Others frantically washed everything in their homes and cast dishearten- ed eye at the, snow drifts, they might soon have to melt for drink ing water.
 All this is occurring 100 miles from Ketchikan, where 2O2 inches of rainfall set new record in 194o.la
 Petersburg's reservoir was be- low normal when the first freez- ing weather hit three weeks ago. Kenneth Welde, superintendent of public works, reported Friday there was only a puddle behind the dam. No water is coming in during the freezea!
 City officials expressed concern over the danger if fire should break out in the town. Salt water was piped in to cool the city's die sel power generators.
 The city council is pushing re- quest through the General Serv- ices Administration in Juneau for planning funds to complete blue prints for a new water storage dam. They hope to get it next summer. The town had a dry spell last year, too.

Fire Destroys
 Third Of Ruby

RUBY, Alaska, R)-A S150,000 fire destroyed a third of the Yu- kon River town of Ruby, 250 miles east of Fairbanks Thursday night.
 Origin of the fire was undeter- mined. Exploding oil drums spread the flames as the barrel-tops blew high into the air.
 No one was injured, although the entire portion of the village west of the river was leveled.a
 The fire was believed to have originated in machine shop own ed by Stanley Nichols, United States Marshal at Fairbanks, who is a former Ruby trader.
 The flames ignited 200 barrels of gasoline and oil, spread 10 the Northern Commercial. Co.,, ware house, the Standard Oil ware house and the Nichols Trading Post. All burned to the ground. Nichols now vacationing in the States, said his trading post was unoccupied.
 The fire was discovered by Sam and Tommy White, bush pilots who were staying overnight on their mail run. They said they threw three chemical fire bombs into the burning machine shop, but the heat was too great to make the chemicals effective.
 A Cessna aircraft of undisclos- ed ownership was destroyed.
 A favorable wind, blowing toward the river, was credited with saving the rest of the town.

and New Mexico can dwarf inc girls from inc Northeast"

That's one thing our future Paula Bunyons must guard against the danger of the sun. The aver age girl bakes her face and just develops large patch of wrinkles three months in the sun can age her three years, says Miss Della field, and at this, rate in the year 2,00o, young girls will look older and wrinkled, she believes. Sun shine should be absorbed, gradual ly,, measured, out more by the tea spoon than the tablespoon. she says
 Apparently, women are going to be hard to distinguish from their. brothers according to ,hairdressed Victor Vito who says.

 Victor believes that the boyish bob will bring the wearing of wigs into great prominence. His "crys- tai ball" says women will have wigs in every color in many diff ferent hairstyles to wear at home, for parties, and for particular oc- casions or perhaps to distin- guish them from their brothers and husbands.
 Her hairdo in general for every day work and play will be cut like mans, with the possibility of a few. straight bangs across the front, says Victor, who adds: "At this point I wouldn't even guess what men will look like.-

In the year 200O people will talk about the Gibson girl as if she'd been a pygmy. Six-feet-two Dian as will hide those family albums revealing their midget ancestry" and little Sisters favorite doll will wear Granny's wedding dress.
 Since 1900 women have been growing by leaps and bounds. In that year the average woman was about 5 feet tall, wore size three shoe and was as dainty as Ores den rfigurine, Today 36 per cent of the femae population is between 5 #. 4 in, and 5 1t. 10 inland at age IS the average shoe size is seven. By, the year 2oo0, experts figure that the ratio should have crept up to a height of between 5 ft-s1o in. and 6 fl. 2 in, and shoes will look like violin cases.
 Today's modest little giantesses do not know their own strength. But any year now they should, and just wait unti they do, says beauty expert Ann Delafield, who explains:
 Mature seems bent on produc- ing a new race of Amaxons. With in the next 10 years you'll find the emancipated woman engaging ac- lively in such sports as fooball. baseball and soccer. She'll think nothing of chopping the wood and acting as family car mechanic"
 Miss Delafield has found that the shoulders of girls in her beau ty success school are two to three inches wider than their mothers their gloves are several sizes larg- CT than Mom's, and many a gal stoops down to kiss her teen age boy friend. Says Miss Delafield:
 Goodness knows what will hap pen if they continue 10 soak up vitamins and sunshine and just keep sproutins. Girls from the sunshine states. California. Texas

Not so long ago, a circular sent out to store managers by large chain which operates retail stores all over the United States, We were inter ested naturally, in the subject matter discussed with the store managers and believe our readers will be- too, and so, we print it, in part, below:
 "D) Do you want to be certain of reader inter est? Then use the newspapers. Many a circular re- ceives only glance, while the local newspaper, with hundreds of general news items, is read thor Oughly from first to last page.
 "(2) Do you want representation in the same shopping window the other merchants Of your town use? Then use the local newspaper Women, the purchasing agents of the hOme read newspaper advertising daily, whereas many circular is tossed into the waste basket without glance. "(3) Do you want fast action? Then the newspaper. The ad that you run today, if it con- tainS real merchandise news, will bring immediate results tomorrow. You can receive and sell out consignment of merchandise with newspaper ad- vertisng in less time than it takes to prepare cir cuar.
 "(4) Do you want to be recognized as fatcor of importance in your community-a real hometown store? If you dO use the newspaper-it undoubted- ly is strong factor in the building of good will and acceptance by the whole town of your store as good place to trade'

nomination on the Republican ticket
in Maryland's 9th Congressional Dis

The text of Rep. Beall's announce

day that five years of bankrupt
foreign and domestic policies have
brought us to the brink of the third
world war. The people are entitled to
ask questions, and they are entitled
to straight answers from their
elected leaders. Their sons are dying
every hour in Korea. Many more will
die before the last shot is fired. But
the only answer from the Truman

evasion.
unfortunately the Truman Adj
