HOward'S Delicate Task
Munitions Chief Off to Europe to Helr
Translate Pact Into Weapons of War

fourth service at the Pentagon
which is equally as important as
the others to victory in war.
Secretary johnson announced
when he took over that he had
to have that fourth force of able
businessmen to help him handle
the SIS billion business that is
Americas defense in the cold war.
Recruiting for it has not been
easy.
The jobs don't pay well, COM
paratively, despite their stagger-
ing responsibilities. You have to
cope with politicians which scares
off many. Nor has the Truman
Administration, despite it's 194s
feat, acquired that aura of sue
cess which allures the successful.
Then, too, the President wants to
appoint only the people he likes
and these are neither too numer-
Gus nor too brilliant.
Secretary johnson did not even
know his good fortune when he
tapped Mr.. Howard. He dwelt
persuasively upon Mr.. Howard S
business success and talent for
handling men. But Mr.. Howard
explained his acceptance to
friends by recalling that:
MY father wore three stars in
the other war and all his sons
came home safely. In this war,
wore three stars and all my three
sons came home safely. I think
the Howards owe the country
something"
Two Democrat.
Mr.. Howard confessed to the
Secretary that he was only a two
term Roosevelt Democrat. The
Secretary assured him his new
service would constitute absolu-
ton for that error.
All the defense services are still
gravely handicapped by Mr.. Tru-
mans procrastination in appoint
ing chairman for the National
Security Resources Board. This
in turn has its reflection upon the
economic situation.
The NSRB is charged with the
overall planning for mobiliza-
ton. 1t reports only to the Presi-
dent and he alone can pass on
its ideas to Congress. America
can have no war mobilization plan
until NSRB gives one to the
President. He approves and sends
it to Congress and Congress
enacts the necessary legislation.
Presently, the NSRB is under
the direction of the Presidents S
assistant, John r. Steelman. Even
If Mr.. Steelman had the necessary
experience with defense matters,
he has many other time-consum-
ing duties.

covey of scorched cats.
1t is the day when, according to
Tennyson, livelier iris changes
on the FURNISHED dove, and a
young mans fancy lightly turns
to thoughts of love.
Have No Feathers.
But what do you do if you are
not dove or a young man? I
am neither. I have no feathers
to burnish up, and I have reached
an age where I am the only per-
son who considers myself young
man.
So what am I to do tomorrow
when spring bursts like a balloon
in toy store?
I'd look crazy popping in and
out of bird bath, what with no
beak, to dip, no feathers to ruffle,
and no song to chirp. Even the
birds would consider me crazy,
much less the human passers-by.
And I'm certainly not going to go
about hopping over lawns and be-
ing identified by bird watchers as
the first McLemore of spring.
And, as for my fancy lightly
turning to thoughts of love, it's
a mortal cinch that Jean, after
fifteen years of being handcuffed
to me, isn't going to sit idly by
while I slip on my new spring
suit and bonnet and go a-courtin
and a-mashin' up and down the
streets of New York.

liability to the party since he has
given the opposition a golden op-
portunity to attack the Admin
istration, not only on its mis-
takes in foreign relations but also
on his attitude toward Alger Hiss.
The antagonism of Democrats
in Congress was best illustrated
last Friday when Republican
Senators such as Knowland OF
California and Ferguson of Michi-
gan went to the defense OF the
Secretary of State, who was being
lampooned by Democratic Sena-
tors Johnson and George.
The attacks by these Demo-
cratic stalwarts resulted from
their disagreement with two
speeches made by the Secretary of
State in California. setting forth
the American position in the cold
war and the conditions under
which we would discuss world
settlement with Russia.
Belated Awakening Seen.
The Republicans pointed out
that the only criticism to be
made of Mr.. Acheson's speeches
was that he did not speak as real
istically last summer. Mr.. Ache
sons stock with Congress and
with the country as a whole is so
low, however. that his belated
awakening" is not likely to be
effective.
The charge by Senator McCar-
thy that the State Department is
like a sieve in guarding security
lies not wholly against Mr.. Ache
son, although he has his share in
it. Some Congressman remember
that while he was Undersecretary
of State with James F.. Byrnes as
Secretary Mr.. Acheson told them
he would rather have a dozen bad
security risks in the department
than to victimize one innocent
person by applying the discretion

Pay Day Changed
For EOD Workers

A change in pay days for Erie
Ordnance Depot employees is an
nounced.
Effective the week beginning
November 5, pay checks for depot
workers will be distributed on
Fridays instead of Wednesdays.
The change is necessary to per-
NIT sufficient time for the fiscal
office of the depot to receive
checks from the Army Finance
Office at Columbus, and to dis
tribute them.
The first pay days TO reflect the
change will be the ones which,
under the old schedule, would
have fallen on November 8 and Is,
and which now will fall on No
vember 10 and II. Pay days are
staggered, half the depot employ
eeS being paid one week, and the
remainder the next. Following
this change, checks will be issued
at the regular two week intervals.
This change in pay days is given
popular approval by workers, who
say they like pay days the end of
the week, and because of the more
convenient banking accommodate
tionS on Fridays.
Both personnel and gross earn
ings at Erie Ordnance Depot have
doubled in the past year. AT
present, there are nearly 2250
workers employed, and their gross
earnings are approximately $475,-
600 monthly.
Most of this money remains
right in Ottawa county, as nearly
three-fourthS of the workers live
in Port Clinton, Oak Harbor, Lake
side, Marblehead, Elmore and
Genoa.

Soldiers Must
Have Licenses

All members of the Armed
Services are required to purchase
a hunting and fishing license if
they wish to hunt or fish in Ohio
this year.
That was the word handed
down by the law enforcement
section of the Wildlife division
this week in answer to many
queries on the subject from vari-
Gus sections of the state.
Lester Ballet, chief of the law
enforcement section, said that leg
islative action would be required
if members of the Services would
be permitted to hunt without a
license in the state.
During World War II legislation
was enacted which permitted any
member of the Armed Forces to
hunt or fish in the state provid-
ed that he was an active MEM
Der on leave or furlough from
duty, without hunting or fishing
license.
This legislation was enacted in
1945 and was in effect through
1916. However, it became auto
matically void at the end of that
year.
Wildlife officials are of the
opinion that if the present emer-
gency continues legislative action
paving the way for a re-enact-
ment of the servicemen'S free
hunting bill may be considered
when the legislature conveneS in
January.

THE ALASKA NATIVE SERVICE
s PROGRAM

With the departure from Alaska of Don c. Foster
who has been area director of the Alaska Native
Service for the last six and the introduction
of Hugh Wade AS chief in Mr. Fosters place this
might be a good time to review, briefly, the Alaska
Native Service program.
The overall objective of the Alaska Native Service
is to help the Alaska Natives make successful ad-'
justment to a radically different economy that has
overtaken them. This calls for a relatively speedy
change from an economy of hunting, fishing and
limited agriculture to a high specialized industrial
life from system of exchange of goods by barter 10
a complicated system of money values; from COM
munity plan of ownership and use of land and other
natural to system OF private ownership by
individuals industrial groups.
We can still remember the names of men in the
Bureau of Education (which preceded the Alaska
Native Service 19O7l93D who had their part IN set
ting standards of intelligent and interested leadership
among the Natives. There was Sheldon Jackson W.
T. Loop Charles Hawkesworth, who carried over TO
the ANS and recently Claude Hurst and Don Foster,
the departing chief
In 1881 the Office of Indian Affairs took over the
problems of the Alaska Natives and thereafter the
facilities of the entire Indian Service were available
for helping the Natives. Headquarters were moved
from Seattle to Juneau
When in 1886 the Indian Reorganization Act was
made applicable to Alaska IL DeCdme poSSipie Aoi
Alaska Native groups to legally organize under demo-
cratic procedures for carrying on corporate enter
prses such as community sawmils, stores and
canneres. This also provided means of financing
loans to individuals groups for educational or busl-
ness purposea the absence of money and private
economy In the Natives culture, this kind OF ex-
perience has seemed to be particularly valuable
for the Natives successful adjustment to American
business life
There followed in 1887 the development OF an arts
and crafts department for promtion and sale OF Ma
tives' craft In the year the purchase OF
all reindeer owned by non-natves was arranged
Don Foster was transferred to Alaska Native
Service in 1914 after years in administering work
with the Indian Service
BY 1914 the health service provided by the ANS
had expanded to 10 field and six hospitals
with total of 100 beds. During the following SIX
wears the Mt Edgecumbe Medical Center was de-
veloped with space for of total OF APO cases
and with the completion of the ANS hospital now
under construction at Anchorage, more than 400 more
beds will be added this total 600 beds will be
for tubercluar cases.
Systematic health instruction is carried on by
seven field nurses throughout their districts and
followed up regularly by teachers in the ANS schools.
Closely associated with the health branch OF the
ANS is the Native Resources program with its goals
