DEANo V .. IEOILE
 When Dr. s. B. Fracker, a De- partment of Agriculture scientist, recently told a Congressional com mittee that Alaska could produce 85 percent of her food require ments, he must, if he knows any hing about Alaska, have had some mental reservations.
 If Alaskans were content to live on fish, clans and spuds, it could oe very nearly if not completely elf sufficient today. But to pro- vide Alaskans with the diet to which they are accustomed is an entirely different matter.
 They are, for example, heavy meat-eaters and if the Territory is going to provide its own foodstuffs it must have a sizeable livestock industry
 And the Alaska stock rancher will bump smack into the old prob lem of domestic livestock versus wild predators.
 The predators he will mainly nave to contend with, depending lpon the location he picks, will be wolves and bears.
 The opinion regarding wolves ap- pears to be almost unanimous. AL though it requires a good deal more hunting skill to bag a wolf than does to bring home bear hide, he big game hunters have showed title interest in wolves and hence ven the Wldlife Service regards hem as a menace.
 But when it comes to bears, and specially brown bears, there are wo lines of thought and the two are, at times, almost violently op- posed
 There is one lot of people who want the hears protected, at least partially. Another group would pre- fer to have them decimated if not exterminated.
 Among the former are the big yame hunters, who want bears per- ,etuated so they will have some hing to hunt. Then there is a much larger group, broadly classi- fled as wildlife lovers. These are somewhat romantic individuals who assert that all wildlife is inherent ly good and should be fostered and protected.
 And lastly, there are the Alaska big game guides whose interest in bears is purely mercenary. They make their living by showing the big game hunters around. Of the entire lot who want the bears pro- tected, the guides have the best case.
 On the other side of the fight are the stock ranchers and the commercial fishermen. The fisher men contend, with more than a little evidence to back them up, that the bears destroy more than their worth in salmon every year. And behind these two groups are a lot of people who have no par ticular interest in the matter ex- cept the feeling that it would be

Centengenarian
Declares TV Has
Won Her From Radio

ATLANTA - CAMP Mrs.
Alice Shaw Davis of this city
with a spry movement walked
over and adjusted the focusing
knob on the television set last
week.
Celebrating her one hundreth
birthday, the tall, slim, stately
Georgia woman said that no long
er does the radio hold her atten-
ton she's been converted to
televiSion!
Mother Davis, who remains
pretty much the same year after
year when it comes to being ac-
tive and spry, indicated that the
major difference in life with her
comes with undermining with the
times! She admits that she is
such a TV addict that she's not
much of a bother to the children
anymore.
The grand old centengenarian,
who lives with her children at
1046 Simpson road, still remem-
bers early days in Georgia "be-
fore the war;" She was born dur
ing slavery in Warren County
near Thompson, Ga. Later she
moved to Powder Springs then
to Cobb County from whence she
came to Atlanta.
Possessor of grand sense of
humor, the great-grandmother
still finds time to joke on the &C
tons of her children, seven
grandchildren and two great
grandchildren. Of her eight
children, only three daughters
now live. Her only brother, Mon
roe Shaw, died a few months ago
Mrs. Davis credits her lon
gevity to faith in the Lord" Her
only trouble in the past 40 years
resulted from a fall in which she
was lucky not to suffer any
broken bones.
