2 GRANDM0THERS GET VACATION ON
 HOAX TRIP 10 NM.

SANTE FEE, N. M., June 29 -lRt- Two grandmothers, lured from New York city to New Mexico last week on what appears to be a giant hoax, enjoyed themselves today at Santa Fe resort.
 The two - Mrs. Mary Keihn, 55, of Clark Summit, Pa, and Mrs. Frank Licari, 51, of East Rockaway, N. Y, =. found themselves stranded in Albuquerque Friday with only $40 between them. They had thought they were bound on an expenses paid trip to Los Angeles, won on a radio program (truth or conse- quences).
 The gag began with a purported long distance telephone call from Los Angeles during which an un- identified girl informed Mrs. Keihn she had won a trip for herself and a companion Mrs. Keihn persuaded Mrs. Licari to accompany her.
 Now VIVA has stepped in and ar ranged tickets home for the grand mothers = each has five grand children - and a three-day holiday at Bishops lodge here.

NOT FUNNY

Last December Benjamin Fine Education Eoloor of the New York Times, learned somewhat to his surprise that than percent of the college students the United States taking any geography courses more recent survey, based series of questions prepared for the Times by Samuel Van Valkenburg, director of the Graduate School of Clark University and answered by 4752 students in 42 colleges revealed that college students display shocking lack of the fundamentals of geographical knowledge.
 Here are some of the results
 Less than half of the students knew the approxi- mate population of the United States. The estimates ranged from one million to 20 blionl Eighteen out of the whole could give the approximate population of the five largest cities in the country Only IT percent were able to list the states which must be passed through journey by the most direct route from Minneapolis to Seattle Georgia and Mississippi were among the states named Only 50 students could ,ite four commodities which the United States m- ported One student put down immigrants as our chief import Others in trying to name the countries by which Yugosavia is bounded, mentioned Canada, Egypt, Manchmia or Portugal
 This is not at all funny It shows an alarming dis regard on the part of educators to get down to brass tacks Now that the United States has become the leading world power, knowledge of geography IS more than part of everyones intellectual euupment

BUT WHO WOULD GUESS TT?

'"The businessman knows more about how to run his business than government official. No operation can be well run unless it is handled by men who know what they doing'
 And who do you think said that?
 Secretary of Commerce Charles Sawyer. It was part of an address to the Advertising Federation of America meeting in St. Louis two weeks ago and, needless to add earned the applause of his audience
 The Secretary, guest speaker before the AFA' also praised advertising for it's contribution to petter standard of living rapped those critics of advertising who think advertising should be dispensed with during the mobilization effort advertising IS an essential mart of our business operation and long as that operation continues at high gear vigorous advertising should continue to be part of it.

This was the chief stumbling block between ourselves and some other U. N. members.
 Other points in the propaganda truce agreement were fairly simple namely, a 20-mile demilitarlzed zone north of the 38th parallel, and an agreement that there would be no more bombings, no more guerrll- la warfare, and no more troops or equipment moved into Korea by either side during the truce.
 The above terms were somewhat similar to those which Pres. Tru- man sent to General MacArthur for his perusal just before Easter and which Macarthur subsequent ly issued as his own. MacArthur's jumping the gun was one fact which contributed to his custer. The President, however, is in no pos ition to oust Comrade Malik for likewise jumping the gun when he heard that the U. N. and the U. S. A. were working on a truce.
 Here are some ABC facts on beef which Mike Di Sale is supplying Congressmen in his desperate fight to retain price controls:
 l. Since January 1850 cattle pric- es have gone up 53 per cent while the prices paid by farmers have gone up only 13 per cent.
 2. If Congress permits Di Sales proposed rollbacks, beef-even after all rollbacks-will still be selling higher than in any year prior to Korea. Previous all-time high was $22.40 per hundred pounds. After rollbacks it would be SPA.
 3. While cattle prices went up 53 per cent, wages of manufacturing workers rose only 10.6 per cent since January '50. The level of consumer prices in the same period went up only 9.7 per cent.
 The price of cattle in the last eighteen months has risen three times more than the price of food items, four times as much as the prices paid by farmers and more than five times as much as the wages of manufacturing workers.
 4. The middlemen who feed cat tie for the packer and thus produce higher grade of meat also claim they don't have enough incentive under the proposed rollbacks. Real fact is, however, that even after the rollhacks the cattle feeders will make an average profit of about $40 per animal. And for the past ten years the feeders have been quite content with an average profit of $22.91 per head.
 NOTE-Mike Di Sale is now ask ing: how much incentive do the cattlemen need?

DAM DROPS DOWN. TOWN
 THREATENED

tI a. Ax
 BREWSTER, Wash, June 29 -lR Bulldozer crews worked desperately today to strengthen an old earth dam and relieve this Central Wash ington town of disaster threat.
 Mayor H. A. Lndquist said any sudden heavy rain could bring a serious threat of a 20-foot wall of water breaking loose but that the danger did not seem alarming. Brewster is a town of 1.309 where the Okanogan river flows into the Columbia. It is down a narrow canyon from the weakened dam.
 The mayor expressed confidence the danger would be relieved by to- night or tomorrow night.
 Officials said the dam began to show seepage several days ago. A section 12 feet square has dropped down, indicating erosion below the water line. The dam is about 30 feet high.

OCEAN PERCH MAY
 RIVAL SALMON AS
 PACIFIC FOOD FISH

PORTLAND, June 29 --iRl- ! Seattle Federal court ruling may provide the Pacific Northwest with a new fishery that will rival the salmon and tuna industry.
 That was what Thomas J. White, attorney for the Yaquina Bay Fish Company of Newport, Ore, says. He was referring to court decision that permits the name ocean Perch" to be used in labelling and advertising species of rockfish found off the Pacific coastline from Oregon north to Siberia.
 The U. s. Food and Drug Admin istration had brought suit against the Newport firm to prevent the use of the name Ocean Perch
 The fish is similar to species found in the Atlantic. Atlantic perch is the major source of the huge fish fillet industry.
 Dudley Turnacliff, president of the Yaquina Bay Fish Company defended his labelling of rockfish as ocean perch and called in battery of experts to back him up.
 The Food and Drug Administra- ton finally agreed with him and withdrew it's objection to use of the name Pacific Ocean Perch" on labels covering the western fish.
 Turnacliff said number Of fish, ing boats have been renovated to catch perch.

 It is no longer a secret that U. s. delegates to the United Nations have been working with other U N members for some time on a Korean truce proposal and that Comrade Malik jumped the gun on them.
