Kodiak Slated For Rent Control

Washington (P)-The De- fense Production Administra- tion has certified six critical defense housing areas for rent control, and among them is Kodiak, which had pre- Viously been certified as a critical housing area.
 The certifcation does not in itself invoke rent controls but such action normally follows.
 In the Kodiak area, which includes the entire island, DPA said, rents have risen and construction of substan- dard conversion units has be-

The Bank of Kodiak has been asked by the Treasury Department to cooperate in reducing the demand on the mint for new coins, Marshall Crutcher, president, revealed this week.
 For several months there has been a heavy demand for new coins which has over taxed the production abilities of the hints. The demand for coins he explained, has also created a demand for copper in excess of the amount which

 Asked By U. s. Treasury

has been allotted for that purpose by the National Pro duction Authority.
 Crutcher said that the people of Kodiak must be hoarding, as they are else where, because in the last three months the Bank has imported 5000 half dollars, 10, ,000 quarters, 35,0 dimes, 46, GOO nickels and 60,000 pennies.
 The treasury department pointed out, he added, that there are enormous quantities of change held inhome savings banks and in vending ma chimes. If each American family will release from hiding and return to business just 10 pennies, some 1.26O tons of scarce copper can be saved at this time, Crutcher added.

100000 Old Enough
To Vote But Less Than
100000 Ever Have

District of Columbia who lack
voting residence in any state.
On top of this is the general
apathy of many colored persons
who have never voted and thus
do not understand the Importance
Of the ballot. IF the number Of
Negroes old enough to vote would
60 to the polls, they could well
determine the outcome Of the next
election.
Even in the North where there
is no organized effort to keep the
Negro away from the polls, there
are many coIored persons who do
not vote. One of the chief reasons
for this is that they do not full
fill the residence requirement.
This group includes number
of recent migrants who, because
of the housing situation in most
metropolitan cities, have not re-
manned long enough in one
to establish a resi-
dency. They move from one
room to another before they
finally settle down. This is, Of
course, no fault of theirs, but it
does result in a fewer number
voting.

There will be nearly $500, 600
non-white civilians old enough
to vote in the November election,
according to the U. S. bureau Of
census.
The great majority of these
non-whiteS are Negroes. Whereas
Japanese, Chinese, Indians and
others are included among the
non-whites, they do not total
more than 100000 persons over II
years old.
This means that there will be
about 100000 Negroes old
enough to vote. Despite this
number, the NAACP and other
interested organizations do not
expect more than 100000 to
vote.
There are many reasons for
this. One Of the chief reasons is
that most of these colored voters
live in the South, which, incl
dentally, has the largest percen-
age Of citizens 81 years and older,
and also maintains artificial
barriers which work to keep
them from voting. -.-.
According to the 1850 census,
5,69S, 181 or about 81 per cent of
the non-whites lived in the south.
This compared to about. II per
cent in 1910. Today there prob
ably are fewer living there. The
change reflects the movements Of
non-whites out of the South since
1870.
Among the civilians of voting
age are many who may not vote
because of confinement in penal
institutions, mental hospitals and
kindred institutions.
In all these cases, eligibility to
vote is determined by state laws,
which vary in many respects.
Furthermore, there is a substan-
tial number of persons in the

DEAR MISS N1SSEN: My
sweetheart has been in the Navy
for four years and is about to be
discharged. He used to write me
frequent letters of love, and on his
last leave asked me to marry him.
He was sent overseas, and we cor
responded. Then his letters
stopped. I've written asking him
why, but have received no answer
He hasn't written his family either,
but 7 know he is alive and we'll,
as he was home a few months ago
for his mothers funeral.
PATSY F.
ANSWER: The whole answer to
your problem is contained in a
few words you added almost as an
afterthought. Are you so blind
that you can't see their signifi-
canoe? "His mothers funeral!" To
a young boy who presumably was
devoted to his mother (most
youngsters are) her death would
have been a shock overshadowing
at least for the time being, all 9TH
er emotion. Also, from the casual
treatment you give his loss, you
probably weren't on hand to offer
much in the way of sympathy
Friends are needed most in time

bring. or attempt to bring, any
consolation to your young man
during his bereavement, it is quite

possible you have lost him for
ever. I wonder if, even up to this
time, you have written a word Of
coincidence to him.
DEAR MURIEL NISSEN: For
the past two years I've been so
restless that it's beginning to az
feet my marriage. I have a won-
derful husband. but just can't find
enough in him or in our home to
interest me. We have no chill
dren. What is the matter with
me? I am Is years old.
RITA P.
ANSWER: Nothing is so in.
ducive to restlessness as idleness.
and of that you have just too
much. If your home is a small
apartment. or even a small house.
you simply don't have enough to
do to keep busy. That's a sad
state of affairs for a 25-year-old
girl. Are you completely lacking
in initiative or resourcefulness?
Get busy and you'll soon forget
to be restless. Volunteer as an
aide in your local hospital. Offer
to help care for the children
there; give them their meals, wash
them, read to them. With so few
nurses to do so much work, a pair
of willing hands will be very well
come. Offer your services to the
Red Cross; they have dozens Of
jobs you could fill. Surely you
have some talent you could share
With others. Be generous with it!

Many women are afraid to lose
weight. or use rs an alibi the old
chestnut-"Losing weight makes
one look older and more wrin-
kled."
I have had so much experience
in my classes and with my readers
that I can personally guarantee
that this is not true. It is true
that the fatty padding beneath
the skin does fill the face out
and make you less apt to wrinkle.
However, this is certainly bal
anced by the heavy jowls, the
double chin and the middle-aged
heavy appearance the faces of the
overweight have.
One reader lost 100 pounds un-
der my direction and I saw her
afterward. She was fortyish and
did not have a line in her face.
OF course she dieted scientifical-
ly, took plenty Of time and did
facial exercises regularly.

amounts of weight too quickly

Why Grow Old?
Don't Kid Yourself

Ior adopt a diet which does not
properly nourish them, and do nc
exercise, are certain to look lined
and flabby. Y
The skin must have time to
shrink to its new proportion. It
helps to build up tone with exer-
else and If you have many pounds
to lose you should do so gradu-
ally so that the two above factors
are taken into consideration. Skin
fabrication is also important when
losing weight because it keeps the
skin more pliable.
II you have just five or 10
pounds to lose you do not have to
be concerned about these items.
If you have more you can take
a flying start but afterwards it is
a good idea to settle down to a
loss of about two pounds a week.
Any woman looks and feels
much more youthful in the face
as we'll as in figure and spirit if
she reduces carefully and scien-
tifically. Do not kid yourself or
be kidded by others on this score.

The United States Navy is
"vitally concerned" about possible
loss of funds for a second large
aircraft carrier in its proposed
1858 shipbuilding program, John
F. Floberg, Assistant Secretary of

day.
Mr.. Floberg spoke at the annual

sors for the U. S. Navy, held at

con was the closing event of a

Referring to the recent cuts suf-
fered by the Navy during House
consideration of the 1853 Appro-
priations Bill for the Department
of Defense, the speaker pointed
out that the aircraft carrier was
listed as number one priority
item.
1.-THE carrier was eliminated in
spite of the fact that the Navy
could better have been required to
accept a cut equal to the cost of
the carrier in less urgent ships of

clared.

tinued, that the Navy is in a
better position than any one else
to judge in the light Of current
world conditions, the nature and
extent of the Communist threat
to our control of the worlds seas,
the ships and weapons which we
need to gain and maintain that
control and the Naval tactics to
be employed toward that end"
