In Wi++enberg's
Reading Workshop

Two South Solon school teach
ers will complete their course in
the Remedial Reading Workshop
next week at Wittenberg College.
Because of the urgent need of
such course of study the en-
rollment was more than triple
the number expected and class
sessions have been conducted a
full day rather than the usual
morning hours which is normal
for this Lutheran institutions S
summer school. Special attention
to young Americans reading de-
ficiencies all over the country was
evidenced by the fact that althou-
gh most of the teachers came from
Ohio, some driving as far as 126
miles every day to attend the
school, outside the state, teachers
came from as far as Florida.
Director of the Remedial Read
ing Workshop is Mrs, Margie
Marsh Watson, principal of the
Aycock School of Greensboro, n.
c., who has taken special instruct
ion in the teaching of language
arts in the modern school under
such educators as Roma Gas and
Jean Betzner of Columbia. Univer-

SAVES HAY BY TOPPING
WITH GRASS

If you have more alfalfa hay
this year than can be stored in
side, Guernsey County farmer
offers two solutions to your pro-
blem.
County Agent Oscar Share re-
ports that Jerry Derry of near
Kimbolton last year stacked his
extra alfalfa hay in the. field,
covering the stack with a layer of
pasture clippings. These clippings
shed the water and the alfalfa
kept in good condition.
This year, Derry is baling his
hay with a pickup baler. He will
stack the bales about eight high
and then top the stack with lower
quality hay containing timothy
and other grasses.

NATIVES REVIvING
SOME ancient ARTS

AS the demand for Alaska native
crafts increases and other actlv-
tiles such as trapping, do not bring
in as much money as formerly, the
natives are turning more and more
to their arts and crafts. This
trend has been noticed for some
time by Don Burrus, manager of
the Alaska Native Service Arts and
Crafts Clearing House here.
Some of the old arts (such as
weaving Chilkat blankets) are dis
appearing and many others are
being revived through the encour-
agement of ANS teachers. The
Nunivak Islanders have been max
ing driftwood masks patterned after
those used in ancient rituals by
their forefathers. Because OF the
scarcity of ivory on Nunivak, the
Eskimos gather the driftwood that
comes largely from the Yukon
River, for carving.
Desk lamps, book ends and wood
en- bowls are among the articles
carve. The lamps and book ends
are in a true simplified style de-
plotting polar bears and blue foxes.
The bowls are dyed in tans and
browns with etching Of seals show
ing the intestines and stomach of
the animal.
In many sections basket weaving
has shown definite improvement
both in weaving and patterns, al
though the numbers of weavers are
not increasing sufficiently to make
baskets come within the price range
of the many buyers.
The King Islanders are rated the
best ivory carvers, especially on
cribbage boards and statuettes. The
finest bracelets come from the Lit
tie Diomede Island. Eskimos at
Gambell do the best birds and st.
Lawrence Islanders do the best
scenes on tusks.
Most of the sales from the clear
ing house are to gift shops in AL
aska although several places in the
states are regular customers.
Schools and museums are frequent
buyers, often requesting various
artifacts.
The clearing house is self-sup-
porting by taking a standard 10
per cent on articles sold and keeps
four persons busy full time and
one part time. Sales average
around 100000 yearly.

Canadian Rail Strike Porjeys Break Down

National Railways and the Cana
dian Pacific Railway said the op-
orators now believe that "the
representatives of the people
should act together in discharging
their responsibilities to meet the
situation"
The operators said the nego-
tiations had broken down over
failure to agree on the amount
of wage increases, the date of
a proposed reduction of the work
week from 48 to 40 hours, and
over a provision covering hotel
and water transport workers of
the rail lines. The unions have
insisted that these workers be
included in the basic agreement.
while the management wants
them under separate CONTRACTS.
Hope for an early settlement
of the strike, which has left more
than 100000 workers idle and
threatened Canada's economy,
was held earlier today on the
basis of reports that agreement
had been reached on some major
points at issue. This indicated
that only subsidiary questions re-

can, of New York made the prin.
cipal attack on the city's defense
funds. charging the item was au-
thorized only for planning" but
not operations.
Representative Davis, Demo-
crat, Of Georgia, and Representa-
tive Garfield, Republican, of New
Jersey, stoutly defended the full
$780, 900, claiming it was sorely
needed for operation.
Mr.. Garfield referred to an ar
ticle in the current American
Legion Monthly magazine, stress
ing vulnerability of Washington
to an atomic bomb attack.
Garfield Still Hopeful.
The victory Friday for sponsors
of the full fund came on the mo-
ton of Representative league,
Democrat, of Texas, to increase
the $4,000 to 100000.
When the fight came to q final
showdown last night. the motion
to kill the league amendment
was offered, without debate, by
Chairman Bates of the Appro-
priationS subcommittee handling
District funds.
On voice vote, Speaker Ray
burn announced the Bates mo-
ton apparently had carried. Rep
resentative Garfield called for a
standing vote. It was 141 to 73.
But when Mr.. Garfield called for
a roll call vote, only four mem
bers stood. an insufficient number
to order the roll call.
Afterwards Mr.. Garfield said
he was still hopeful Congress
would provide the funds so badly
needed for Washington to set up
a model civil defense agency, as
an example to the Nation.
He hoped the Senate would re-
store the House cuts. and that
eventually the House would agree
to the larger sums.
Several cuts were made in the
cityis supplemental requests. Vic
tins included the District Once
of Rent Control, Upshur street
tuberculosis Hospital Metropoli-
tan Police and day-care centers.
City officials declared the slash
in Rent Control funds from
$113.100 to only $4,000 for the
remaining seven months of opera
tion up to January 81, was "se-
rious."
The Metropolitan Police esti-
mate of $646,000 to put into effect
the flve-day week was reduced
to 100000.
Other cuts were: An addition
to Browne Junior High School.
from $5O0,000 to $500 900; Upshur
Street Hospital for repairs, $685.
500, eliminated entirely; Day Care
Centers. from 100000 to $50, 900,
with directions to "liquidate"
them by October / this year;
pay increases for wage-scale en-
ployes from 1925, 900 to 1920. 900.
Also: Zoo, for repair of weakened
roof Of elephant house, from ST.
