New Superintendent Arrives For Lost River

Spring operations are about to start at Lost River, stated gen. eral manager Ken Kadow when he passed through Nome yester- day enroute there with new US. Tin officials.
 Kadow was accompanied by the new superintendent, Donal Kochersperger, who comes from South America. MT. KocherSperg- CT has been at the tin mines in Bolivia and observed that wea- ther conditions are far worse there than in this part of the country.
 R. J. McCrary, also with the party, will be metallurgist and mill superintendent and he also has had several years experience in Bolivian tin mines.
 Kadow stated that the company reluctantly accepted Paul Soren- sons resignation and out of ap- preciation for the fine accomplish ments he made at Lost River in getting the project under way, has voted Sorenson a substantial stock bonus.
 It was also revealed that pow erful pumps are being installed to handle the water problem as well as other equipment to make water available during the winter months. The next few months should see the project get under full scale operation again.

Mccarthy Infringed On
 Presidential Prerogatives Cutting Trade with Reds

WASHINGTON, lR - Mutual Security director Harold E. Stas- sen said Friday he thoroughly agrees with President EisenhoW- CTS position on the controversial efforts by Sen. Mccarthy to curb free world trade with Communist nations.
 Talking to White House news men after cabinet meeting, Stas- sen said in reply to a question that specifically he agrees with Eisen- hover that it would have been better for him to have used the word infringe" instead of say ing the Wisconsin senator had undermined" government policy.
 Stassen told McCarthy's gov- ernment operation subcommittee on Monday that Mccarthy had undermined government efforts to shut off trade with Iron Curtain ports. The subcommittee has been getting pledges from Greek ship owners not to trade with Red China and North Korea.
 Eisenhower said at his news conference Thursday he person ally did not believe Mccarthy had undermined policy, but he em- phasized that the right to negoti- ate agreements in that field rests completely and absolutely with the President.
 Stassen said he is "happy" about what he termed the outcome of the controversy.

Price Support Program Is Pricing Butter Right Out of Market

WASHINGTON, R- : President Eisenhower says butter is pricing itself out of the market, and un- less there is some change in the government price support pro gram, he doesn't know what the solution is.
 The government is currently buying, at 6725 cents a pound, about two million pounds a day, the President told his news con- ference, and some of it's huge stock is getting close to the spoil age point.
 It's crime against civilization to allow to spoil anything that could be used by someone, even if it had to be virtually given away, Eisenhower said. He added he couldn't imagine anything worse than to destroy it when people are hungry.
 Secretary of Agriculture Ben son, who has announced he will continue to support prices of dairy products at present levels for an- other year, is currently meeting with dairy industry representa- lives in an effort to solve an overproduction problem.

Would Abolish Indian Affairs
 Including ANS

WASHINGTON, R-Secretary of the Interior Mckay has under study a plan to abolish all area offices of the Indian Bureau if it is feasible, an aide said late We'd nesday. One of the area offices is at Juneau
 Orme Lewis, assistant secretary who has jurisdiction over the Bu- reau, also told a reporter that some changes. will be made be- cause it is felt that in some in stances the work by the area of fees has been unsatisfactory.
 Lewis said he was approach ing the matter from the stand point of determining whether the area offices would be abandoned or their work should be limited.
 Both Lewis and McKay's aide emphasized that no decision will be reached until a new Indian Commissioner takes over in sue cession to Dillon s. Myer, whose resignation was accepted recent ly.
 There are now II area offices which in five instances supervise the work of Indian agencies and in six offices also do that but are the equivalent of consolidated agencies. The Juneau office is among the six described as also being the equivalent of consoli- dated agencies.
 The Bureau of Indian Affairs office in Alaska is known as the Alaska Native Service.
 The Juneau office was not men toned specifically by Lewis, ex- cept that it is included among area offices under study. There was no announcement as to how Alaska Native affairs would be handled if the area office was abandoned or it's operations changed.

Good Friday Brings Signs Of Consolidation Between
 The West and Moscow
tBY THE ASSOCIATED PREss)

The Western world saw fur ther signs of conciliation from Moscow this Good Friday and hoped at long last the Communists were matching words with deeds that would insure peace There was cautious optimism almost everywhere.
 MoscoW's surprise package of the day was the announcement of the release of 14 French civilians informed by the Communists in Korea. The Frenchmen were cap tured in Seoul at the outbreak of the war and included some mem bers of the Seoul consulate staff.
 The move was viewed in Paris as still another conciliation ges- ture in the Communist worlds current peace campaign. Soviet leaders have offered to help ob- tain the release of British civilians held in North Korea.
 In Korea, the United Nations Command rushed plans for the possible quick return of sick and wounded Allied prisoners of war. Negotiators meet Monday to ar range the transfer, and if all goes well further steps toward an ar mistice may be discussed.
 President Eisenhower said the US. should take at face value every offer made by the Con- munists until it is proved un- worthy.
 The President had final words with the new American ambasSa- dor to Moscow, Charles E. Boh- len, who leaves today for his new post.
 Washington experts said the whole public exchange of peace moves and responses from the Communists and Western sides appears to enhance the chances of an eventual meeting between Eisenhower and Malenkov.
 In Moscow, "a group of Ameri- can newspaper and radio execu- tives continued their round of sight seeing. At a dinner last night the Americans and Soviet officials drank toasts to Eisen- hover and Malenkov and to inn proved relations between the two nations.
 In Korea the war went on. Chinese troops ripped into Allied lines in central Korea with 175- man attack against a strategic outpost hill. The Reds were rout- ed in a bloody two-hour battle.

Your Health
Some Facts
Obesity
By jones w. Borton, M. D.


Most physicians consider obes-
ity (overweight) as due to one
of two causes, Cd eating too
much, (2) underactivity of
glands. However, other physi-
clans state that there is a third
type of overweight, due to he
redity.
That there is some ground for
belief that heredity is an i'm
portant cause is that when the
parents or grandparents were
overweight or even when only
one parent or grandparent was
overweight, the percentage of
overweights is higher than when
there is no history of overweight.
On the other hand, those who
do not classify heredity as a
cause of overweight say that
children or grandchildren of
overweights have inherited only
or acquired the habits of their
ancestors-such as a liking for
starch and rich foods, a liking
for rest and sleep, and a dislike
for exercise or physical work.
1.-The term overweight (obes-
ity) implies an excess storage
of fat in the body. So many
individual characteristics must
be taken into account that there
is no precise point at which one
can say overweight exists"
First, there is the difference
in body build-slender, medium
stocky; second, the difference in
the length of the legs because
an individual with long. wide
body and short legs is bound to
weigh more than one with a
short narrow body and long legs.
The habits of living, type of en-
.ployment and. as noted above,
heredity, must all be considered
in estimating what an individual
should weigh to be Of normal"
weight.
Does weight make any differ
ence to health and the life span?
An excess of fat is detrimental
to health and predisposes to dis
eases of the heart, blood vessels,
and kidneys. The increased body
weight adds to the work Of all
these organs. Most overweightS
have high blood pressure which
so often Is the forerunner of
heart strokes (coronary throm-
bosis) and brain strokes (apo-
plexy). Further, as DR.. E. P. JOS
lin has so often pointed out, the
great majority of diabetes are
greatly overweight before this
disease attacks them. Finally,
life insurance companies place
overweights on their list of
poorer risks, and fat persons
generally. but not always, have
decreased endurance.
1T is difficult physically for
him to take the proper amount
Of exercise and this tends to in
crease the accumulation of fat"
So important is normal weight
for build that some physicians
call obesity a disease and put
their overweight patients in hos
pital for observation. In hos
pital, various tests can be made,
including the metabolism test
for the gland activity, the amount
of food and liquids can be ac-
curately measured (no snacks
between meals), the amount of
physical activity measured, and
the working of the kidneys esti-
mated.
The thought, then, for over
weights in whom "home" treat
ment has failed, is to enter hos
pital under the supervision of
their physician.

There are many baseball fans
who would like to see Hank go
to bat for improving the pension
agreement. They remember the
days when Hank was a player
himself. In those days, Hank had
his share of being tossed around
by the front office. Few will for
get how Hank, after building up
the gate receipts of the Detroit
Tigers by his ecord-breaking
playing, suddenly was traded
without warning

"Of course, I'm sorry to leave
the White Sox, but I'll do my best
for Cincinnati" With these words
Saul Rogovin acknowledged the
news that he had been traded by
the Chicago White Sox to the
Cincinnati Redlegs. The trade did
not come as a major surprise.
Saul had a slow season with the
Sox and it was apparent at the
end of the campaign that a trade
involving him was a possibility.
In 1851 Saul led the American
League with the best earned run
average. His average was 2.78,
with a seasons record of IL vic
tories and eight defeats. In 1852
he won IA and lost 9. However,
this past season he lost IL and
only managed to win seven. Saul

Hank Greenberg is in hot spot

troversy over the baseball play
ers' pension plan.
Greenberg, who is the general
manager Of the Cleveland Indi-
ans, is one of the two men named
by the baseball owners to study
the pension plan.
This puts Hank in a position in
which he can either WELD his in
fluence in favor of the players,
or play the management role of
trying to abolish or weaken the
plan.
