 The new hospital is a long way from what CoIonists had back in he early days of the Afatanuska Valley.
 In 1885 the Federal govern ment formed the Alaska Rural Behahilit.tion Corporation and transported farmers to the Val ey. The project grew and devel- ped. Homes, schools. and finally I hospital were built. However. esp.taI facilities uere found !n- HJea4ate and q modern ho~p:.e.

Belgrade Cab
Drivers Fight
.ToStayF Free
BY ALLEN JACKS

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia Up -
Belgrade's independent, nomination.
allied taxi drivers are fighting q
tooth-and-nail battle to stay that
way.
Their strange weapon: keeping
Jared down.
The drivers, who jockey ancient
rattletraps of many makes, are
battling for survival against shiny
new streamlined American cabs
operated by state-owned center
prise" And the Independents seem
to be winning-by forcing their ma
tionalized competitor to operate al
a loss.
The capitalist Communist feud,
unusual but not unique in Commu-
mist YugoSlavia, began six months
ago when the enterprise launched
a new, modernized taxi fleet. It
sold all its old jalopies and i'm
ported "a medium-p priced Ameri-
can cars.
With import duties and a COM
plicated government tax called a
factor" each car cost about
$4,000, or total of $780, 900 for
the fleet. The enterprise had only
$4,000 in cash from the sale of
its old cabs. 1t obtained $275, ZOO
subsidy from the city of Belgrade,
and borrowed the balance of
$135, 900.
Now, reports Belgrade's Evening
News, the enterprise is in serious
financial trouble" 1t can't pay off
its debt. 1t can't get an additional
subsidy. And it needs to double
fares to meet current expenses
alone.
That's where the Independents
come in. Higher fares, they say,
would put everybody out of bus
mess, including the enterprise.
Even the present fare (25 cents
a mile), say the Independents, is
too high for the average passenger.
They blame the situation on ex-
cessive taxation.
This leaves the enterprise on the
brink of disaster, and the independ-
ents know it.

Keys OfThe

the bestowed best-sellers, "The
Keys Of The Kingdom" by A. ].
Cronin, Twentieth Century-Fox's
movie version, an encore triumph,
is being brought back by popular
demand to the Monroe Theatre
starting Sunday.
The role of Francis Chisholm,
the young Scotsman, whose life
story is the basis of the film is
taken by Gregory Peck. Both psy-
chologieally and from the stand
point of makeup, the role which
Peck essays is one of the most am
bilious and difficult he has ever at
tempted. Peck's characterization
ranges from a young student to 10
years of age.
Few pictures have ever come to
the screen with such a long and
impressive list of character &C.
tors as "The Keys of The King

Willie Tulloch: Vincent Price plays
Angus Mealy: Rosa Stradner plays
the central feminine role of Maria
Veronica; Roddy Mcdowell as
Francis as a boy: Edmund Gwenn
is Bishop ''Sandy" MacNabb; Sir
Cedric Hardwicke is Monsignor
Sleeth; Peggy Ann Garner is seen
as Nora as a child. with Jane Ball
carrying the role to womanhood.

are also featured.

Bombay State
Head May Be
Heir Nehru

NEW DELHI Up - If Bombay
states chief minister starts pack
ing his bags for a shift to Delhi
it's a sure sign, say Indian politi-
clans, that he has been tagged as
heir apparent to Prime Minister
Jawaharlal Nehru.
Thus far Morarji Ranchodji
Desai has not reached for a single
suitcase. But it's not, say his as
seciates, because he hasn't been
asked.
"Morarji has two reasons for
staying out of New Delhi" says
an associate who has discussed
with the chief minister reports he
will become Nehru's deputy.
"In Bombay he is the boss. But
in Delhi he would be just a small
frog in a big pond, just one of the
team under Nehru.
'But there is a more compelling
reason. If Morarji joins the central
government with the label of Neh-
rus heir apparent pinned to his
coat, he will be the subject of poll
teal sniping by every aspirant for
that job in the Congress party.
They may even gang up on him."
1t is no secret that DeSai would
Like to be prime minister when
Nehru steps down. But he is hope
full of making it in a single jump
from the chief ministership of
Bombay state.
AS a member of the Congress
party's Working Committee - and
its treasurer - Morarji Desai is
already a potent member of the
ruling party'S top command. A
vigorous So, he is young among
the party's leaders.
