Metal Shortage
Hitting Pennies

Local banks have been asked to
aid the treasury department in a
campaign to empty jars, sugar
bowls and old cans of boarded
pennies and nickelS.
Officials of the Port Clinton Ma
tional Bank have received let
ter from Mrs. Nellie Taylor Ross,
director of the u. S. Mint inform
ing them that due to the acute
shortage of copper, the Mint is
unable to meet the present extra
ordinary demand for pennies and
nickels.
There are undoubtedly enough
of these coins lying idle in vari-
Gus home containers to alleviate
the shortage. Vigorous efforts
are being made to have such coins
returned to circulation, Mrs. Ross
stated in her letter to the bank.

HALLOWEEN CARNIVAL A FINANCIAL SUCCESS

The annual Halloween Carni- val sponsored by the Student Council was a huge success this year with gross proceeds totaling $1,487.70. Alaska's favorite game led the concessions by taking m S263 and the Big fish pond was second with $129.50. The lunch room followed with $122.95.
 The proceeds will remain in the Student Council general fund this year and will be used for diff 1erent organizations, uniforms, activities and emergency fund.
 The halls of the Palmer School were crowded with young and old when the doors opened at 700 p. m. but by 1000 pm. the crowd, as we'll as the concessions, was pretty we'll played out-So the kiddies went home to dream about witches and goblins while the older folks stayed to dance to the music of Schaefer's Orches- tra.
 Two door prizes were drawn at 12:3O. First prize, a bronze horse and clock, was won by Max Hods- don and the second prize, plush Agoat, was won by Bob Walker.
 Proceeds of the dance totaled S263, which is included in the to- tai proceeds of the Carnival.

 Annual Charter Night With Dinner and Dance

tain their wives and a few friends Saturday night, November 3, with charter night dinner and dance at the new Moose Hall.
 The event is an annual affair and commemorates the granting of a charter to the Palmer Xii Wanis Club. Women of the Moose will serve the meal, The dinner will be followed by an entertain ing program, and the evening will be concluded with dancing.
 Ticket chairman Elmer LeDuc reported Monday that tickets were moving rapidly. There was a good chance that some late-com- ing Kiwanians would be unable to get reservations for the limited plates.
 At the regular Monday Kiwanis meeting, President Hugh Johnson appointed Marvin Slaughter to the membership committee for the remainder of the year.
 Incorporation Recommended
 Following report by Jim Hur- ley regarding the desirability of such a move, the members pres ent voted unanimously for incoc- poration of the Palmer KiWanis Club. The advantages would be that members would be liable only to the limit of the clubs as sets in case of a damage suit. Otherwise, Hurley pointed out, every member would be liable for possible damages up to the limit of his assets. The final vote on incorporation will be taken at the annual meeting which will occur on November 19.
 Nomination blanks for Kiwanis officers for 1852 have been dis tributed, according to President Johnson. These should be re- turned at once to enable tallying by the nominations committee.
 The Minstrel Show committee has begun planning for this an- nual mid-winter affair. Chairman H. J. Hodgson announced an inn portant meeting to be held in his office at the local Experiment Station this Friday night, Novem- Der 2, at pm.
 Guests at the luncheon meeting included Clifford Marcus, in charge of the Anchorage office of the Soil Conservation Service and formerly of Palmer; Howard of the Bureau of Rec lamation Eklutna Project; and Robert Secrist, Kiwanian from Juneau and also representing the Juneau office of the Bureau of Reclamation.

BY the Associated Press

The farmer is getting about 81
cents out of every dollar con-
sumers spend for food, Agricul-
ture Department officials esti-
mated today.
This compares with As cents
before the war started in Korea
and with a peak of 81 cents in
1945. In the depression period
of the sos, the farm share
dropped as low as 80 cents.
This increase in the farmers s
share, officials said, means prices
of farm products have gone up
more during the past seven
months than have margins
charged by food professors and
distributors.
Retail prices of a typical guam
tity of food-described by the
Agriculture Department as the
family market basket" - have
gone up about 6.3 per cent since
the Korean hostilities began.
Price Still Below Record.
AS q unit of measure the mar
ket basket contains quantities oi
farm food products equal to the
annual average purchases of q
family of three consumers in the
1935-1939 period.
This quantity of food was
priced at about 1858 before the
Korean war. BY early this month
lit had jumped to $694-an in
crease of $41. This price, how
ever. was below the record of $71;
reached III July, 1948.
The farmers share of the food
dollar varie~ greatly by commodi-
ties. It tends to be largest fol
meat and livestock products anC
lowest for grain products and
vegetables.
Meat Share Is 63 Cents.
In the case of meats, the farmer
is receiving 63 cents out of every
dollar spent by the consumer
according to the Agriculture De-
partment officials. The farm
share for other groups includes:
Dairy products, SIS cents; poultry
and eggs, IS cents; bakery and
other cereal products. 81 cents;
fresh fruits and vegetables, 4C
cents, and canned fruits and
vegetables, 19 cents.
The department says the figure
of $6.94 for the present cost of the
arbitrary market basket does not
adequately reflect today's spend
