Chances are a good argument could be started by anyone who said food costs less today than it did in the not-so-palmy days of mid-thirties.
 While price tags were much lower in those days, they didn't tell the whole story. The value of money changes. The only real measure is how much work the average consumer has to do to earn enough to buy his food, so says a special report from the Agricultural Department of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States.
 Take the basic food, bread, for example. In 1885 a loaf of bread may have cost less in pennies than it does today, but the aver age factory worker had to work nine minutes to buy that loaf. In 1853, the same worker could buy a loaf of bread, improved by en- richment with essential vitamins and minerals, in less than six minutes, the National Chamber points out.
 This reduction is found throughout the range of com monly-used foods, and is re-

Security Review of Case Of Oppenheimer Done To Head Off Possible Probe

WASHINGTON, R-Congres- sional sources said today one req son the administration decided to conduct a security review of atomic scientist J. Robert Oppen- heimer was to head off possible congressional probe.
 William L. Borden wrote the FBI on Nov. ', 1853, after re- signing as executive director of the Senate-House Atomic Energy Committee, that his study con- vinced him Oppenheimer "more probably than not '. is an agent of the Soviet Union." The letter was made public Tuesday night in the transcript of the Oppen- heimer hearings before a special three-man review board. Many scientists who testified called Op- penheimer, principal developer of the atomic bomb, both loyal and an excellent security risk.
 Informed congressional sources who declined to be quoted by name said copies of Borden's let ter came into possession of in vestigating committees headed by Sen. Mccarthy R-Wis) and Jen- ner R-Ind.
 The informants said some con- gressmen feared any Capitol Hill probe might throw the case into public "partisan politics" and that they led a backstage move to place it before a special board.

Science Writer Accounts 20 Years of Miracles"

Nine chances out of 10, the next prescription your doctor writes could not have been filled as re- gently as 1935-because it will call for one or more drugs then unknown.
 The revolution brought about in the science of medicine by the drug discoveries of the last two decades - with the new. knowl- edge of the human organism that has come with them-is the sub ject of a new book "The Science Book of Wonder Drugs" Franklin Watt, $295 by Donald c. Cooley. MT. Cooley, Minnesota-born, na- tionally known as a science writer, is a specialist in translating the fascinating lore of the scientist clearly and dramatically into lay mans language. He is the author of two other books pertaining to science and medicine and hun dreds of magazine articles, and he is managing editor of "Your Health'' magazine.
 The drugs about which he writes, and which have saved un- told lives and millions upon mil lions of dollars in the cost of ill., ness, are the major miracle drugs,"- "-the sulfas, the antibiotics the cortical and sex hormones, the vitaminS and the lesser miracles" that treat only one or a few dis ease conditions.
 MT. Cooley employees anecdotes to enliven his 246-page history of mircles."

FIVE-YEAR-OLD DRIVES FARM TRACTOR. DADS CAR

CLYDE, NC, R-Elmer Roose- welt Mason, 30, will be tried here July 12, on a charge of letting an unlicensed minor-his son-drive his car.
 State Patrolman w. R. Wooden, who made the arrest, said he saw the Mason car going about 30 miles an hour with a driver who looked a bit short in the saddle. Mason protested that his son is a capable driver who also runs a farm tractor.
 The boy wasn't charged. He's 5.

fected in the overall average. In 1885 the average factory worker with two dependents spent about a third of his income for food; in 1853 the same worker spent less than one-ffth, or 19 per cent, of his income on the food bill.
 There's entirely too much fuss about the price of food and too many attempts to arouse consumer antagonism against the farmer" the report said. It pointed out that food prices to a certain extent are due to price supports, but even with this, the worker still does less work today to pay for his food.
 The reduction in prices is due to improved technology, the re- port continues. Newer and bet ter ways of doing things enable the farmer and the processors to turn out food at lower costs.
 Food costs may seem too high, but they've never been lower. The facts show that the American consumer is getting the biggest bargain ever in food and in a greater variety of better foods. the Chamber says.

Girl Scout News
ROBBIE CANNON. Scribe

We are having fun here at Girl Scout Camp. We have been going on hikes, and swimming. We give plays every night.
 We initiated the new girls on Tuesday, then the new girls played a trick on us Wednesday and in itiated us.
 We help our counselors with the cooking and washing dishes. We also take our turn and play like we are Bronson or Pioneer Water works, and carry our own water up the hil and dump it into the barrel.
 We have gone swimming every day even though there is still some snow up the river. We think it's warm. Then we've gone on long hikes. We are also doing some hand work now which we hope to sell at our annual sale. We're making belts and pot hold CTS and some willow brooms and things to stir powdered milk and gravy with to make them smooth. Mrs. Handeland is from Norway and she has taught us how to make them.
 But what we like best of all is the good food we get. And some of you kind folks at home bring or send us such wonderful treats we sure appreciate all you do and thank you very much.
 We run our own canteen and that's a sweet time for us. We never go to sleep without a good night story and a hug and kiss, so we feel almost like we're at home.
 Counselor are Mrs. K. Hande- land and Mrs. J. Matson and the girls at camp are:
 Edna Johnson, Barbara Mays, Jimmie Mays, Bunny Doyle, An geline Outwater, Lillian Outwater, Mary Jean Longley, Clarice Hardy, Nina Tungwenuk, Rose Marie Cavota, Suzanne Eager strom, Gladys Walker, Robbie Cannon, Elin Valtyrson, Myrtle Chambers, and Helen Reader.

 Last evening was Parents Night at the Girl Scout campand two plays were given by the girls which were enjoyed.
 Cinderella and Snow White were performed in novel and delightful way.
 Transportation to camp was provided by the Alaska Cab bus.
