Don't blame the farmer because your food bill is big.

Many big city markets where perishables handled

plus the fact that railroads and truckers have raised their

Last year. for instance, it cost 1882 million to market

in 1889
Modezed methods of processing and distributing food
would lead to lower food prices And lower food prices would
mean bigger demand for both farm products and manuac
tured goods.
Thus the worker would benefit along with the farmer
and the housewife.

Time For u. S. Action

The AFl Building and Construction Department has
begun to pubcze the almost incredible conditions imposed
upon thousands of American building trades workers who
employed on overseas construction According to rel
able reports about $4,000 employed by pr-
Vate contractors overseas Jobs
Although much of this work is being done with federal
funds the workers most of the projects labor under OPP
presve unfair conditions that went into the discard in the
United States decades ago 1t is high time the cond
tons changed for the better and be up
the U. S. government to take prompt remedial action.

Good News From Frunce

French Communists told recently to look on high
wages threat to their struggle for power Delegates
the 18th annual convention of the French Communist party
also heard Communist leaders admit that their Marshall
Plan propaganda has been in large part failure that they
have not succeeded in getting workers to strike for political
purposes alone that they have lost than 800
bers since 1917 and that interest in Communist publications
is falling off steadily.
This of course sad news for the Reds but it was
good for democratic France and the of the free
world.

They come over every summer to carve ivory" explained Nancy Baker, vivaciouS girl from White Plains, N. r., who serves Wien's as greeter, cook, and guide.
 All along the narrow village street, score of paces up from the placid beach (tide of only six inches here), we constantly en- countered Eskimos, colorfully dressed, grinning their welcome happily.
 John Ipayana, a Little Diomede Eskimo, accompanied us. He spoke in beautiful English though 1 was told his education has all been on Little Diomede and is equivalent only to fifth grade. The rest, John has done for him. self.
 He led us to an 8x12 tent where a dozen of his fellow islanders were busily at work-the men cutting, carving, and polishing ivory and the women preparing boiled salmon over a gasoline stove.
 Ivory Handiwork Noted

John showed us ivory handi- Work-bracelets made of alter nate segments of fossil and nat ural ivory, held together by elas- tic cords, I bought one for $10 to take home to my 11-year-old daughter.
 The fossil segments are either black or mottled brown; the nat ural segments are white and each has tiny figure of an arctic an- imal carved on it-walrus, polar bear, seal, whale. The Eskimos know these animals intimately from hunting them for food; their likeness on the bracelet are strik-

led his people-men and women though only the men beat the tympanilike drums made of wal rus stomachs stretched over an 18-inch hoop, with a handle at tached.
 The drums were struck with batonlike sticks in single and double-beat rhythm, depending on the particular dance; and the Eskimos sang Justify their orien- tallike songs. There were three types of dance; the common, where Eskimos joined at will, each giving his own interpreta- tion of the musical story.
 The motion dances were by a set number of Enthusiastically four-with obviously worked-o out beforehand routines. These re- minded me of the familiar Amer ican square dance, which had its origin in medieval Europe.
 The interpretive dances were given only by men, one man danc- ing at a time, depicting a story of hunting, fishing, and other activities.

 For sale also were larger an imal figures, letter openers, crib bage boards, steak-knife handles pistol grips, and so on.
 MT. Ipayana called inside the tent to Oscar Ahkinga, who left his squat position and came tc the tent opening.
 Oscar was held by the Rus sians on Big Diomede Island last year for 8 days" said MT. Ipa- yana. Tt was the last visit our people will ever make to Big Dio- mede. We used to go often"
 MT. Ahkinga, who spoke Eng fish less fluently than MT. 1pa- yana, is 24 years old. He told me the Russians did not maltreat him and his comrades - there were two boatloads-but kept them in tents and constantly questioned them about life on Little Diomede and on the Alaska mainland.
 There was one Russian who spoke English" said MT. Ahkinga. We didn't tell him a thing"
 These Eskimos, incidentally, to- day are the human radar" net work which would first warn the United States of an invasion-in- asmuch as the real radar network along the Alaskan coast has not yet been built.
 The Eskimos are organized into the Alaska National Guard, equipped with rifles and radios, and have assumed the responsibil- ity for keeping the Boring Sea and Arctic Ocean coasts clear of invaders. There is no other pro- vision-yet-in this part of the country for repelling an invasion. Our "Maginot Line" is the 6O0- mile stretch from Fairbanks down the 470-mile Alaska Railroad through Anchorage, and on to Kodiak Island.

 KOTZEBUE, Alaska-This will lage of 625 persons-550 Eskimos and 75 whites - indicates that tourism could be the northland's s No. l industry and also give Alas kan natives dignity, honor, and steady employment.
 TWenty-six miles north of the Arctic Circle, Kotzebue stretches along the tip of a skinny penin- sula within shouting distance, all most, of Siberia. For centuries it has been a trading center for Es- kimos-first their own trade, now Eskimo and white man.
 It is served daily by Alaska's enterprising airlines-bush pilots with all that designation implies in skill. These airlines are so big now that they look and act like the best of stateside operators.
 I arrived here in a Wien Alaska Airlines DC-3, two hours after taking off from Fairbanks. With in an hour had met enough per sons from far away places to make me think this was Broad way and 42nd Street.
 Awaiting my plane, to return to Fairbanks via Nome, were George Sundborg, consultant to the Alaska Development Board; George Armitage, tourist expert from Honolulu, who has been re- tained by the board to study Alaska's tourist possibilities and make recommendations for ex- pansion of tourism in the Far North; and Charles West, head of the Arctic Alaska Travel Agency in Fairbanks.

 Mir. West, who formerly was pilot for Wien Alaska Airlines, began the Arctic air tours which in three years have brought thousands of air tourists here.
 We walked down the beach past rarnshackle shanties, tents, salmon-drying racks, and tethered dogs, to see the islanders from Little Diomede.

Suddenly the squeal of rab-

Haying Prones
Dangerous w Work
Haying is dangerous work.

Haying is dangerous work.
w. E. Stuckey, farm safety
specialist at Ohio State Univer-
sity, says the most common hay
ing accidents are falls from the
hay NOW or from loads of hay.
He urges special precautions
to prevent such falls. Farmers
can make .sure that loft floors
are in good repair and hay
ichutes guarded. Special care
should be taken in making starts
and stops while loading, espec-
tally on rough ground.
Stuckey points out that it
helps to check equipment often
to avoid loss of time, and to as
sure safety.

happy children as the winners.
The bicycles-more than 100 o1
them-were those which had been
recovered by police. Persons who
had reported the loss or theft OF
a bicycle were invited down to see
if they could identify their prop

A small crowd, literally sprinkled
with children looking for lost
Christmas and birthday presents,
showed up to look through the
bicycles piled row upon row in a
basement room at the Municipal
Center. The bikes were in all
stages OF repair. Many had been
painted over. or stripped of iden-

If child thought a bicycle was

had been reported to police, he
was allowed to take it home.
