leading an impoverished life, wand ering about on the roads of the United States. The impoverished U. s. masses are turning to Soviet Russia. Tens of millions of Ama erican people live in terrible slums Only the rich can afford pro- per medical care in the United States. Enormous unemployment stark misery and the specter of hunger compel thousands of Am- ericans to travel up and down Sle country all the time to find oc- casionally some menial work
 This is an accurate sample of Soviet broadcasting as picked up by American intercepts.
 Inside story behind this fantasy is that the Kren2lin is desperately trying to take the minds Of the Russian people off their own low standard of living and create dis trust of the fabulous United States.
 Even with the Soviet's new price cuts, the Russian worker must la bor IT hours before he can buy a pair of shoes that would cost S5, or the equivalent of half a days work by an American work man. Low-grade stewing beef that costs 19 cents a pound in an Am erican chain store goes for $5 a pourd in the Soviet-above the reach of t.lc low and middle classes.
 Other price comparisons are: A mans suit that sells for $27 in the U. s. costs $277.25 in he Sov- jet: a woman's dress, S895 here and $111 there; a table radio $3895 here and $272 there; womf n's Shoes, $5 here and $8750 there; and a wrist watch, $50 here and $100 there.
 Ironically, in this Soviet work CTS Utopia,' a loaf of black breaG the staple of life, still costs 212 times what it did in 1940, though luxury items like caviar and good vodka have dropped to prewar price levels.

Tongue-L -Lashing

Lucas waited until the next day to give Langer scolding.
 While I know my friend from North Dakota has voted quite often with Senators of this (the Demo- cratic) side of the aisle," he said and think it was MT. Drew Pear son who said the Senator would become a Democrat did not know that he had gone quite so far as try to take over the majority lead ership of the Senate.
 T think it will be regrettable II the time comes when a Senator cannot indulge in a bit of frivolity or take a nod or wink, or per- haps have his attention distracted by some newspaperman in the hall without some other Senator taking advantage of his absence.
 T know from previous exper- ience," continued Lucas, that the Senator from North Dakota ire ouently conceals himself in a par liamentary bush, and at the proper time strikes out with the sharp edge of the wedge .tbut l do not want to be ambushed any more by my friend from North Dakota.

BIRDS OF A FEATHER

Guilt by association is an ugly doctrine. Among some primitive peoples, if one member of fam fly were accused of crime, every member of the family is held ac- countable. In some schools, teach CTS still hold an entire class res ronsible for the conduct of one pupil, which is a form of specializing guilt repugnant to our way of life which is based on individual responsibility.
 However. the term, guilt by as- sociation," as it is currently being used, is something quite different What we do is to follow the old adage, birds of a feather flock together" We go back to the proved sociological postulate that where there is community of kind, there is likely to be an association of those who have similar tastes When, therefore, person appears on a large number of Communist or Communication activities, the assumption must be that that person has made a voluntary choice to associate with such people and their activities.
 Take, for instance, the case oi Dorothy Kenyon. The lady says that she is not a Communist and has never been one. We must take her word for that. But how shall this record be explained?

 Since the Democrats are steering the Senate, it is majority leader Scott Lucas of Illinois who is sup posed to set the quitting time-not Longer, who is a lone-wolf Repub- lican For a moment, however, not a Democrat was on the floor And Larger, glancing in both directions saw his chance to move for a re- cess. As no one objected, there was nothing the presiding officer could do but recess the Senate.
 As the bells rang out this news, Lucas stormed into the Senate Chamber where Langer was grim ming like boy who had let school out early. Ignoring Langer, Lucas marched up to Senator Pat Mc- Carran, Nevada Democrat, who had just roked his head in the door to see what was happening. As Ju- diciary Chairman, McCarran was in charge of the pending legisla- ton, and it was his responsibility to keep watch on it..

Bristol Bay damned With 52 Ex+ru Boats

Extra boats on Bristol Bay this season mean that everyone in the overcroWded areas is going to have just a little less time in which to fish, Clarence Rhode of the Fish and Wildlife Service an- nounced last week. MT. Rhode said there were 52 extra boats fishing in the Bay this year, the majority of them working for floating canneries which moved in this year. The FWS is balanc- ing the extra boats by longer closed hours.
 MT. Rhode pointed out that the increase in boats in fishing areas, noted all over Alaska this season, is making the fisherman's aver age wage a good deal lower than it ought to be. He said on the Cop per River particularly, where the catch was the largest it had been in years, the individual fisher mans payday was the lowest 1t had been in some time.
 Increase in boats is attributed to the shortened seasons in vari- ous areas, which make it possible for a boat to move from one area to another, fishing in each while the season is open.

They don't know very much about boats, they admit, and nothing at all about Alaskan waters, but they're ready to learn.
 The trio plans to cruise from Seward along the shoreline of Resurrection Bay and Prince Will liam Sound, as far as Cordova. Then they expect to run up Cook Inlet for little 1850 exploring, before they turn back to their books at Michigan State Normal.
