Extension Service Asks For Funds To Serve Alaska

WASHINGTON, (P)-A house appropriations subcommittee was told at a hearing on the agricul- ture department appropriation bill that the departments exten- sion service is trying to serve the scattered villages in Alaska as well as farmers.
 w. L. Wilson, director of the extension service, said in testi- mony made public today:
 'The extension service in Alas ka is endeavoring not only to reach the farmers of Alaska but also the people who live in villi- ges or who are scattered out in the territory engaged in numbering, fishing and so forth.
 "The children of many of these people do not have opportunities for the kind of associations that come from All club work, so that the All club work is being expanded.
 "The home demonstration work dealing with home problems in Alaska is being expanded and more effective service is being given to home-steaders and to the farm people,"
 Wilson said that because many of the people are new to the ter ritory and are farming under new environment, personal ser of great importance.
 vice by the extension service is
 He said extension workers in the territory must like pioneer ing and not object to Alaska weather and must be familiar with dairying and the raising of potaties and vegetables"

Truman's Program Major Issue In Congress

Washington, (P- Administra- ton leaders saw little prospect to- day of smooth sailing for the Tru- man program, despite the smart ing defeat they handed a COP Dixie coalition trying to take con- trol of the house,
 Much credit for their 236 to 183 triumph yesterday, they said, must go to the civil rights issue which cost the coalition a large chunk of republican votes.
 They got little comfort from a republican hint that a new effort to change the house rules may be made later.
 The test yesterday was on a CO alition-backed move to give the rules committee virtual 'life-and death control over major legisla- ton. The committee is dominated by republican and southern mem bers.
 The debate that preceded the showdown left no doubt that the presidents program was major issue. Leaders of both sides said as much.
 "The issue is whether or not
  the entire Truman program will succeed or be defeated" said rep. Allen R-Ill0, top minority member of the rules committee.
 "The gentleman from Illinois, MT. Allen, has laid down the is sue," said speaker Sam Rayburn of Texas, head of the Truman forces.
 The coalition had proposed to knock out a I949 rule allowing other committees to bypass the rules group after 21 days. Even optimistic administration leaders h a d not counted on collecting more than 50 COP votes. They

RECORD WAR MAY END

For many years, standerd photograph records re- volved at the rate of sevenyeght revolutions per min ue This was the standard for all recording outfits until 1948 when the Columbia Company began to turn out mcro-groove records revolving at hrtythree and one third rpm which virtually trpled the length of play ing time Not to be outdone the Victor Company brought out it's version in 1949-a smallsized plastic record revolving at speed of 45 rpm. Both com panies continue to bring out the standard 78 rpm rec Ords.
 The confusion was considerable and there the prospect that the speeds would prove nuisance to those who wished to play records from all the compan es Apparently the thirty-hree and one-third rpm. record has gained public favor and last year. six or companies, including Decca began to issue the slow estspeed record Now apparently the battle is coming to an end because the Victor Company has announced that it will issue it's records on the three speeds.
 It is noted by those who know something about the history of records that the Victor Company, in the early Thrtes, introduced records revolving at thirty three and one-third rpm but because there were no light pressure pckups and high quality amplifiers the of the sowpaying records did not gain in popular favor.

In 1923 very important meeting was held at tht Edgewater Beach Hotel in Chicago. Attending thi meeting were ten of the worlds most successful men least men who had found the secret of making mon ey Twenty-Five years later let's see where these mer are:
 The president of the largest independent steel steel company Charles Schwab, died bankrupt and lived on borrowed money for five years before his death
 The president of the greatest utility company Samuel Insul died fugitive from justice and pen niess in a foreign land.
 The president of the largest gas company Howard Hopson, is now insane.

In short the southern democrat ic wing of the coalition delivered its top strength, but their repub- lican support didn't come through.
 Here are some typical explana- tions:

 Rep. Clarence Brown R-Ohio), who wanted the rule changed "The issue was beaten by left wing democrats and GA me-too re- publicans."
