By Josephine Lowmon
Men know that the feminine
sex has always felt under COM
pulsion to be as attractive look
ing as possible. Many claim that
this is a throwback to the days
when women were entirely de-
pendent on men for their safety
and their living.
Until more recent years life
was pretty dreary for most
women who did not have a man
in theirs, and even now it is
much happier with. one. How
ever, women's situation in the
world has entirely changed.
No doubt this background of
dependency may have some in
f1uence on the feminine psychol-
ogy but I think it is just her ma
ture. Anyway, man has come to
expect it of her while she has
not demanded the same of him.
A woman is apt to love her man
no matter how he looks but this
doesn't mean that she does not
recognize an attractive looking
man when she sees one. When
she doesn't she will either be
dead or really old. And some
times, in her inner heart, she
may wish that her man looked a
little more like the man she mar
ried-since he really could. This
sentiment is not reserved for
men only.
So why not give the little lady
a break? While she exercises
and diets. perspires and works,
brushes her hair and lubricates
her skin. studies makeup and
hairstyling, wears girdles and
high heels. why not drop a few
pounds and regain some of that

Opened in October, 1851
Winterthur Muuseum was open
fed to the public in October, 1851,
and received instant recognition as
one of the great decorative art
museums of the world. The period
covered is approximately 1910 to
1910. In the words of Joseph
Downs, curator, Here are 200
years of domestic architecture,
furniture, ceramics, metalwork,
textiles, paintings, and prints chos-
en- with the most meticulous re-
gard for their quality and fitness
of location. /. .Winterthur repre-

! Red Lion Inn, a Connecticut house
Montmorenci, and Port Royal, the
noted Shop Lane, and the 18th

LIMIT SET ON
S. S. EARNINGS
Beneficiaries Permitted T O
Earn SIS Per Month Under
Social Security Act
LXPLAIN RESTRICTION

People under rs who are receiv-
ing old-age and survivors insur-
ance are permitted to earn up to
SIS per month and still accept
their monthly benefit checks, un-
der the amendments to the Social
Security Act, which became effec-
tive September 1, 1852. There are
no restrictions on earnings for
people over rs. The law used to
require the suspension of benefits
for any month in which the person
receiving old-age and survivors in
surance earned over $50; and since
this was less than one weeks work
at $1.50 an hour, not many COM
panies could employ these people
even on a part-time basis. How
ever, with the beneficiaries now
permitted to earn up to SIS per
month, many companies can now
place many people in regular part
time employment for short periods
each week, or to augment skele-
ton stats on weekends.
With the present high cost of
living, many people ask why the
earning restrictions is in the law
at all, and its removal has been
advocated. However, if the SIS
per month work clause" were re-
moved, many people would be
working full time and receiving
benefits even though no more in
need of them than any other regu-
LARRY employed person. This would
increase the monthly cost of social
security old-age and survivors in
Surance so much that there would
have to be a substantial increase
in the contribution rate or an over
all decrease in the amount of bene-
fits.
Many of the old-age and surviv-
Drs insurance beneficiaries are
widows with small children, who
ordinarily have to spend the major
part of their time in the home, and
it is desirable to have the amount
of their benefits as large as posi-
bile. This insurance undertakes to
replace part of the income lost due
to retirement, or to the death of
the family provider, and it is not
intended to provide payments to
persons merely for having reached
the age of 65, or to pay people who
are able to take full employment.

WRANGELL MILLS IN TRY FOR TAX RESPITE

Alaska Wraugell Mills, Inc. owner of the local sawmill which has been shut down since l946. failed 10 get a reprieye on is delinquent taxes when it's request was brought before the City Council Tuesday night by sam Burnsed. who is associated with the C. r. Takahashi Company, orig inal purchaser of the plant when ii went to a receivers sale in lg49.
 The property has been delinquent in it's city taxes. dating back as far as 1947. and it has been published among the delinquent properties for which tax sale will be asked of the District Court immediately after July 10. legal date for making such request.
 Burnsed told the Council he was authorized by the company to make a settlement for the taxes but the company felt some sort of an agree ment should be reached. particularly in connection with the 1917 taxes. half of which are still owing and with penalty and interest amount 10 about S1.500. Burnsed contended the company didn't know the taxes for that period were unpaid when it bought the property from Receiver o. H. Olson in January of 1919 and claimed its abstract of title said the property was free and clear of en- cumbrances.
 Council held it had no jurisdic- ton whatsoever in the matter of the sale of the sawmill; that it's sole duty as a governing body of the city was to collect taxes under existing law from the property owner of re cord; and from all property owners with no special agreements with one taxpayer as against another.
 Burnsed implied the company might go to court in an action against the receiver in connection with the 1947 taxes, possibly hold ing up all the taxes owed the city by Wrangell Mills.
 ''Is that a threat. Mr. Burnsed ?' inquired Councilman Art Nelson.
 "Oh. no. no" answered Mir. Burn sed. You gentlemen are just forcing us to do it the hard way"
 After few more exchanges. Councilman Nelson moved that the city go ahead with the tax sale as planned and won unanimous en- dOrsement of the Council.
 In touching on company plans Burnsed said during the two hour discussion, that it was reorganiz ing again and was getting parmis- sion to sell stock in various states He said the company wouldn't sell the mill but that he could annonun ce no plans for it's operation.

Appointments

Gov. Heintzleman has been turn ing out a lot or appointments recent ly, all of which to date indicate that the old line conservative self-styled black Republicans have the situa- tlOn well i'll hand. There seems to be a complete absence of names of per sons who were active in the days of so-called White" Republicanism.
 To the Alaska Development Board for example: William Bates, head or the Miners and Merchants Bank in hetchikan and one of the real work CTS for the pulp mill in that city; Stanley Tatom, head of Yukon Equipment in Fairbanks, and Clar- ence Moriarty, Anchorage engineer and attorney-no one of which might even be suspected of being a IN hite" Republican.

Collins, Fairbanks attorney, member of the first 1913 Legislature and a member in various succeeding sessions; J. simpson MacKinnon of Juneau, for mer lawmaker and the elder of the pAO4GGl -haN4AAAA nun LdllIlg u LudL rity. 4 nice way to start a regular Fourth of July firekorks demonsta- tion might be to suggest to "E.

PERMIT FOR FIXING
 YUKON BUILDING DENIED

The City Council turned down the request of Virgil Newman for a building permit to renoyate the old Yukon building, presently owned by Meredith Custard, at it's meeting Tuesday night.
 Proposed plans for renovation under a proposed purchase agree ment from Custard would not pro vide for putting the structure in shape to comply with the city build ing code, the Council decided.
 Contractor Hans Enzbrunner. who had made a survey of the building. said present plans for reconstruction would not bring the structure up to fire protection requirements set forth in the new code
 The Council advised Bob Ferguson that he could go ahead with the con struction of a building on the for mer Waters Bear Totem property as an eating house if it complied with the provisions of the code. Fergu- Ison told the Council he was plan ming snack bar on the property.

PROPOSED LIGHT RATE REVISION HELD IN ABEYANCE

Alter hearing a report from Light Plant Superintendent Ralph Deveauy on the capacity and potential of the municipal owned plant, the City Council at a special meeting Tues day night decided to deter to future date consideration of lowering the power rates as an incentive to en- courage potential electric heat users.
 Devenny brought out that from his figures it would require that at least l5 electric heat installations be made and in use before lowering of the rate could be safely consider ed and assure the town a reserve of power. Council agreed.
 It was also decided that when the additional users are acquired that a complete study of the rate struc- ture be made, hiring a municipal power rate expert to go over the en- tire utility.
 A petition was presented from some 15 potential light users out the highway beyond WrangeH Institute asking for an extension of the nun icipal service into that area.
 Supt. Devenny was commissioned to determine costs of providing such service and determination as to it's financial feasibility will be made at the next meeting of the Council July [.

 After the game Wrangell players remarked that the Prince George team had greatly improved over last year. As Nelson put it, We might be in for a couple of thump- ings this year"
 Officials for last nights game were Joyce Hay, umpire, with Lynn Schwartz calling them on the bases

 THROUGH THE SENTINEL PERISCOPE
B0ubedi

Last Saturday around $ o'clock Wrangel was bombed A Coast Guard plane buzzed the town, \. s3plug a few parcels representing bombs as part of a simulated air rad larr4ed on up and down the coast in connection with civilian defense. While Juneau was virtual ly wiped out by Operation Beware Wrangeu was more fortunate. It didn't know about it so the folks could go on having their morning coffee without being alarmed.
 Some time after the boys had bombs away" and probabaly were half way to Ketehikan, local Civil ian Defense Director George Smith was alerted that there was going to be a raid. While We were surveying the damage" from the Sentinel window an hour or so later. came another wire which said enemy planes attacked Juneau 1915. Dam age and casualties heavy. Atomic missile used"
 Our sympathy goes out to poor old Juneau, now in shambles. Maybe it wasn't alerted either. although it is the headquarters of Col Crockett's Civilian Defense organization. Or, as Director Smith puts it. maybe We were supposed to be obliterated. We don't do much about civilian defense down here
 At any rate. it is nice to know the boys up there are scouting around, keeping an eagle eye out for the potential enemy.
 Meanwhile, thanks for the Air Raid Warning Siren. Colonel. it got here on the Aleutian Monday.
