Over 5000 Mines
of Morse Coasts

A World War ii sea mine was
recently discovered adrift In wa
tiers off Sandefjord. important
whaling center In Eastern Norway.
Brought ashore by harbor patrols.
the 200-pound mine was rendered
harmless by crews from Horton
Naval Station.
There is no longer any direct
mine danger along the Norwegian
coast, as all mines drifting in from
the North Sea are intercepted and
safely disposed of in short order.
The Norwegian Navy now has Is
vessels in its mine service. From
May 1945 to August "a, 1850, Nor
wegian mine sweepers hauled in a
total of 1862 mines.

1t must be remembered too that
these taxes also go to pay for
health insurance, including free
disqualification, children's insur-
ance, that is family is paid 20
kroner per month for each child,
except the first one, old age pen
sion. free dental care of all school
children, free breakfast at school
(the famous Oslo breakfast), free
general medical examination of
all school children, etc, plus the
expenses of a government with
heavy burdens of reconstruction
and for the defense of the country
in a crazy world.
The above figures show that
married man In Oslo pays 100 kr.
in taxes on a 5000 kr. income. Now
let's take couple In Seattle and
compare income and taxes. On a
$4,000 income his taxes will amount
to approximately 5000. Add to this
the present state sales tax (S%
equals $4,000; Social Security
ulaT OF $4,000 equals S45 plus
medical care and disqualification
(king County. $1O5.0O) and you'll
find that our tax burden, II we

per year. Figure 1t out for your

Land Communications

Land Communications
Denmark possesses about 5000
KIN railway, half of which are OPP
Grated by the State, and half by
companies in which the State or
municipalities have an economic
interest. Compared with other
countries the railway-net is in
Denmark very highly developed,
and this holds whether measured
by the area of the country or by
the number of inhabitants.
The motorization of the country
has made considerable Roadway,
and in proportion to the number
of inhabitants Denmark is next to
France and Great Britain, the Eu-
ropean country that possesses the
most motor vehicles. In France,
for example, there was one auto
mobile for every IL inhabitants;
in Great Britain l to every 20, and
in Denmark l to every u inhabi-
tants, whilst Germany, for in
stance, has only l for every 80,
and Holland 1 for every Sc inhab-
itants. Other communications such
as telephones, etc, are also highly
developed. There are in Denmark
about 100000 telephones, it is one
telephone to every two families
and on an average every Dane has
256 calls yearly. This is more than
any other country but Sweden.
Equipment and rolling stock are
/ for the greater part of Danish
make and of very high standard,
and the communication between
the various parts of the country
are effected partly by means of
important bridge constructions,
partly by the use of modern ferry
boats.
Danish Art
The Oldest relics of Danish art
are the beautifully decorated runic
stones and other discoveries of an
tiquities which give evidence of a
highly developed applied art. Dur
ing the middle ages, the church
was the main sponsor of art in
Denmark as in other countries. At
the beginning of modern times, the
artists were set the task of glorify-
ing nobility and royalty, and it
was not until about the year 1900
that other subjects began to ap-
pear, and bourgeois art asserted
itself. From that time may be men,
toned Abildgaard and the world
famous Bertel ThOrvaldsen whose
classical sculptures are found in all
parts of the world, and for whom
an entire museum was erected in
Copenhagen by the architect M. G.
Bindesboll and decorated with fres-
Goes by Some.
Conspicuous names from the fo,-
lowing period are: C. w. Eckers-
berg, Christen kObke, j. Tn. Lund-
bye, p. c. Skovgaard, Dankvart
Dreyer and Hans Schmidt. Many
others, also from other periods, de-
serve mention: The illustrators c.
A. Jensen, LOrenZ FrOlich and With.
Petersen among whose works an
Illustration of Hans Andersen's
Fairy Tales is outstanding, the
painters p. S. krOyer, Anchor,
Ring and Jul. Paulsen, and the
very original sculptor kai Nielsen.
Among contemporary artists
only one name will be mentioned,
viz. J. F. Williamson, who is a
painter, sculptor, ceramist and
architect and who still remains the
most original and controversial
figure in Danish art, but there are
many other artists who have in
fluenced Danish cultural life. 1t
would, however, need too much
space to mention them all, and
only their Importance to Danish
applied art-including the famous
Danish china and Danish silver
articles fGeorg Jensen)-can De
pointed out.

Since the series of eight weekly

more than 200 calls have been re-

sponsored by the District Health
Department, The Star and the
Committee for Education on
Alcoholism.
Many of the calls concern the
new drug. antibuse, used in fight
ing alcoholism. Callers want to
know if the drug is available here
The answer is yes. Mrs. Jane
Williams, executive secretary OF
the education committee, said in
formation on the drug and how
it is used can be obtained by
calling the committee.
A limited supply of antibuse is
on hand here, Mrs. Williams said
But it can be given only under
certain conditions and is not
available on a prescription basis
The drug, given by mouth, causes
certain side-effects, such as head
ache and shortness of breath, if
it and alcohol are mixed in the
system. This makes drinking un-
desirable.
The drug and other means used
in combating alcoholism here will

Mr.. Lie hopes to see Prime Min

These plans were disclosed by
