Field Work On Streets Continues

Field work on the Kodiak street improvement program
 has progressed satisfactorily so far. Bill Thompson, engi- 'neer from Hubbell and Wal Ter Engineering Corporation
 in Seattle, told the city coun- cil Monday night.
 Thompson gave a report of
 his work to the council and
 told of several legal problems
 the city may face when it at
 tempts to widen the road in
 some sections of town that
 are scheduled for hard sur facing.
 The four main roads of town, Mission, Mill Bay, Brooklyn Avenue and Sheli- kof Highway, are being con- ! sidered for the hard surfacing work. Later other arterials [ and roads will be surfaced. Roughly estimated the cost will run around $3S5, 900. ! This includes storm sewers , and curbs but no sidewalks. The city plans to lay side walks along the four main roads.
 Mission road may give the ! engineers and workmen con- siderable trouble as it may be difficult to build a sub-grade . on the road, Thompson said. 1 "When you apply blaek-top
 it is never any better than it's sub- grade" Thompson de- l clared.
 1 The city plans to send an duplication for funds to the l Alaska Public Works as soon
 as Thompson turns over
 enough information for the 1 council to do so.
 After the job is completed 1 the city must pay the federal government back for one half of the cost. The city's half 1 will be obtained through assessment of property owners i whose property adjoins the
 hard surfaced roads and from the special fund set up last
 year by the city.
 The city's' fund is made possible through the addi- ,, tion of three mills to the rep11lar 20 mill assessment on

Stars And StarIets Upset
In Weekend DoubIeheaders

Last Saturday night the Stars
and Starlets met the best OPPOSE
ton they have seen yet this year.
The Starlets dropped a very close
game to the Garvin's Grill girls.
The Stars, minus the services of
two of their best players, Maynard
Haithcock and Bill Boulder, lost
hard fought battle to the Arcade
Pontiac quintet SO to 40. Bill
Moulden was absent from the game
due to recent appendectomy. His
loss and will be greatly felt.
On Sunday the girls and boys
travelled to Martinsburg, West Va.
Both games were thrillers down to
the last whistle. Both teams were
hampered by their inability to hit
the basket and the West Virginians
nosed out double victory-34 t.
so in the opener and 81 to So IN
the nightcap. Coach Lanier was
pleased, however, with the fine Of
fensive play of Craig Meir who
seems to have finally hit his stride.
Tomorrow night and Sunday
afternoon there will be two more
fine basketball double headers. The
local teams meet the boys and
girls teams from Frederick to-
morrow and on Sunday the Star

Specialist Discusses
Social Security
For Farm Workers

In answer to questions about
Social Security for farmers, Paul
R. Poffenberger, agricultural econ

cial Security. Farm operators are
not covered at present; nor are

ing on the operators farm"
An eligible worker is one who
has (D worked for farmer dur
ing qualifying period, (2) worked
for 60 days and earned at least
$50 for three-month period after
the qualifying period. He remains
eligible as long as he continues to
work for the same farmer and
earns at least $50 during each
three-month period.
The qualifying period is three
month period during which the
worker has worked for the same
farmer for at least 60 days and
earned at. least $50.
The calendar year is divided in
to four definite periods under the
Social Security law. The first in
cludes January, February, and
March, the second, April, May, and
June, the third, July, August, and
September, and the fourth, Oc-
tober, November, and December.
When worker changes employers
he must work for a qualifying
period before he is again eligible
for Social Security.
For full benefits worker must
have credit for a least half as
many quarters (three-month peri
ods) as there are calendar quar-
tiers between January l, 1851 and
the time he is IS years old or
dies. However, he must have at
least 6 quarters and he is fully
insured in any case if he has 40
quarters of credit.
Eligible farm workers will have
l 1a percent of his wages deducted
each payday and the farmer will
add an equal amount and return
these collections to the Bureau of
Internal Revenue at the end of
each quarter. Mr.. Poffenberger
adds that the worker must have
Social Security card to receive
benefits and farmers employing
eligible workers should consult the
local Collector of Internal Revenue
for the proper form on which to
report the tax.

Usually during hog-killing time,

To save space in jars. precook back
bones until tender, then remove
meat and can it as hash. Ribs are
nicer if they are broiled in the
oven and packed into jars and
covered with brown gravy before
canning. Precook sliced liver in
water until it loses its color. Pack

MoIIycoddling of Reckless Drivers

s The fatal drunken-driving crash near Rich
mond which has stirred the press and Governor
Battle of Virginia to urge stricter and sterner en-
forcement Of the traffic laws illustrates problem
of Nationwide concern.
Governor Battle commended to public atten-
ton an editorial in the Richmond Times
Dispatch declaring that "the mollycoddling Of
fagrant traffic violators must STOP" The edi-
torial was prompted by the killing of man
and his wife in q head-on collision in which the
intoxicated driver Of swerving car also was
killed. The latter car veereo across a double
traffic line into the path of the couples automo-
bile What particularly aroused the newspapers
indignation was the fact that the driver in ques-
ton had always managed to stay out of Jail,
although his driving record showed him to be
menace to public safety. When convicted of
drunken driving last December for the second
time he was fined only $50-although he had
been operating his car without permit, due to
previous revocation.
Governor Battle stressed driver-education as
one important way to reduce such accidents, but
added that this must go "hand in hand with
stricter enforcement" One good method of ed
ucation is through the courts If more judges
would give dangerous traffic violators some prac-
tical lessons on the discomforts OF the average

This and That

Walls from the Midwest tell Of the
deaths Of honey bees.
Out there they wonder If some new
disease is striking these friends Of man.
It is more likely to be harmful, poison
GUS sprays and powders.
Honey bees are notoriously susceptible
to DOT, for instance.
The free use of weed killers may play
part in their destruction.
We use many sprays and powders and
insect killers of many types about which
we know nothing except that they seem
to work"
This working" fails to take into con-
sideration how many useful insects are
killed or injured. In fact, no one seems
to know just how far man may go with
his killing. He kills, but too often he
fails to notice those living forms he did
not intend to kill. They may be injured
without man knowing it.
X
AS many insects are. killed of. the
bees are left as about the only ones to
polinate growing plants.
This makes them far more important
than ever.
AS nice as honey is. this product is
only part Of the service Of our bees.
Our big old humble bees, for instance,
are the only insects that have tongues
long enough to reach down into the
corollas Of certain types Of flowers.
We must have all these good insects,
II we are to live. And without the aid
