Christmas Vacation
 Trip To Cuba For Some Teacher

Glamorous adventure during the Christmas holidays awaits some fortunate Alaska elemen- tary or junior-high school teacher according to word received re- gently in Juneau at the office of Dr. James C. Ryan, Territorial Commissioner of Education.
 In celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of their public school system the Ministry of Education of the Gu ban Republic at Havana will be host for two weeks to one teach CT from each of the AS States and Territories. This fine courtesy of our Caribbean neighbor is in commemoration of an event of 50 years ago when nearly 1900 Gu ban teachers weer given an all- expense summer course at liar yard University including two- way transportation on U. S. Navy vessels. Numerous eastern cities extended hospitality to the visi- tors, the people of Boston alone subscribing more than S80,000 for their food and other expense.
 This hospitality is now being returned to selected U. s. teach CTS, in the form of an invitation covering all expenses from Mi ami back to Miami, excursions through the island, participation in seminars and special lectures at the University of Havana, and other entertainment.
 Details for the selection of the fortunate Territorial school teacher are being arranged through the ABA. and all teach CTS in Alaska will have an equal opportunity to win.
 Territorial teachers have been sent the rules of the contest and it is hoped that many will apply. The names of the winner and two alternates- will be determined from among the applicants by a drawing to be conducted by dis interested persons on October 26.

Facts About YOUR National Guard

 The States were assigned the responsibility of providing per sonnel and armory facilities, while the Federal government be- came responsible for training, equipping and paying the men. With this support, the National Guard developed into we'll organ ized and adequately trained regi- mentS.
 Under the National Defense Act of June 3, 1916, as amended in 1920, the organized militia was of ficially re-established as the Ma tional Guard, and the organiza- ton was made to conform to that of the Regular Army. Thus the National Guard became a con- ponent part of the organized peace establishment. In practice, spirit, efficiency, method and training, the National Guard be- came similar to the Regular army, but it's inherent local character was guaranteed by the Act which stated it was to be a part of the Army of the United States only "while in the service of the United States"

A-Scientist Skips TORed Poland

ROME, P-Rome newspapers broke out in a rash of scare head lines Saturday reporting Italian born British atom scientist Bruno Pontecorvo had skipped behind the Iron Curtain.
 Swedish Airlines officials said he visited Stockholm last month and then flew to Finland. His father in Milan said he doubtless would be back in England on schedule in January.
 No one yet has been able to contact Pontecorvo, who became a British citizen during the war and worked on atom research projects in Canada and England. He came to Italy with his wife and three children recently for a vacation.
 Under the blackest headlines, Rome's leading morning newspa- pers said the scientist and his family had departed anywhere from two weeks to a month ago on a Czech Airlines plane bound for Poland. These stories said he left with a Polish passport.
 Although none of the neWspa- pers named the source of their in formation, it has an official tone. They played up the fact that Pon- tecorvo had worked in Britain's Harwell atomic energy research laboratory where Germantown Dr. Klaus Fuchs had been a top official. Fuchs was convicted and jailed on charges of giving atom ic secrets to the Russians.

good production will restore many
farms ability to support a family.
Some, however, is land that has
never been farmed and its drainage
will increase the acreage suited for
irrigation and cultivation.
More far-reaching benefits, from a
conservation standpoint, are already
accruing. Drainage is making it pos
sible for some farmers to stop culti-
vation of poorer land, to which they
had been forced through loss by seep-
age. Others have increased livestock
feed production, making it possible
to reduce the grazing pressure on
their rangeland without reducing
their livestock numbers.
Although no attempt has been
made to appraise the total, the ex-
perience of Individual farmers inter
viewed indicates that the drainage
already done has added many thou
sands of dollars to the agricultural
wealth of the state. The size of the
job ahead may easily constitute a
new frontier for Montana.

 Another Election?
 A Conservative spokesman said there seemed a good chance that the winning party would be lucky to scrape home with majority of ten.
 If this happened another election would be unavoidable.
 Usually in these circumstances there are minority political groups which can be persuaded to support one side or the other.
 But this time the Liberals, third strongest party in Britain, were making a sorry showing in seats won and the splinter groups were completely obliterated.
