COP Bad Medicine For Alaska Theme Demo Convention

JUNEAU, tR nm Alaska Demo crats Friday opened four day convention here geared to the theme the Republican adminstra- ton on both the national and local levels is 'fbad medicine" for the territory.
 Ralph Rivers of Fairbanks, scheduled to deliver the keynote address at the opening business session, said the basic approach of the 40 delegates attending the territorial convention would be to protest against "what the nation al Republican administration is doing to Alaska"
 Rivers said the convention also will protest against the ''unplan- ned, uncoordinated activities" of what he described as the Hast Re publican Alaska legislature"
 On the national scene, Rivers said, the convention will object to cutting down on Alaska public works and other programs and also protest the administration stand on statehood.
 At the local level, he added, the convention will "point to a lack of leadership in the last legisla- ture, clogging the hoppers of both houses with horde of un-co- ordinated bills, and the folly of such legislation as requiring the registration of lands within in corporated cities, school districts and public utility districts"
 Another Democratic spokesman said the convention may take up the Employment Security Com missions seasonality regulations, repeal of the property tax law, as well as statehood.
 The convention will end Sun day.

Ken KadOw To
 Be Witness Before Mccarthy Comm.

ANCHORAGE, R-Kenneth J. Kadow, president of the US. Tin Corp, and former top Depart ment of Interior official in Alas ka, has disclosed that he has been notified that he will be expected to appear as a witness at the Me Carthy Senate Committee inquiry into federal financial affairs in the territory.
 Kadow, before leaving Juneau for the states, told an Anchorage Times representative he had re- ceived a letter from the Senate group saying he would be called to testify. He said it was not a subpoena, however.
 Kadow said he would be glad to appear before the Senate h. vestigating subcommittee to tell what he knows about mining and housing. Those are two of the subjects Sen. Mccarthy listed for inquiry.
 Kadow has been active in hous- ing project developments as well as in the tin corporation.
 Kadow originally came to AL aska about six years ago as head of the Alaska Field Committee, which was a coordinating post for Department of Interior Affairs in the territory. Kadow, Demo- cratic appointee, left the field committee in 1851.
 He said the two investigators sent to Alaska recently by Me Carthy interviewed him. He said the men later returned to his Juneau office to take letters from his files while he was out of the city. Kadow said that it was in reply to a letter from him, de- manding return of the items from his files, that the committee ad- vised him that he would be called to appear in Washington.

 The possibilities of a central ized, sponsored program were out lined by Allen Smith of the Fair banks USO and many suggestions were offered as to place, pro gram and financing of the pro- gram.
 The knowledge of the need of such a program was evidenced by the ready response of those pre- sent to get the program organized as soon as possible.

 The committees are divided into three groups:

Reds Say Releasing 22,OOO POWs By Allies Will Endanger Arn1istice

PANMUNJOlI, R-Red China's PeiDing radio said today the United Nations Command would endanger the Korean armistice by accepting the 22,OO0 Chinese and North Korean prisoners to be turned back by India from an ant-Red camp next Wednesday.
 The US. 8th Army already is making preparations to take back the 22,00O as war prisoners on that day-and then release them as civilians at 12:O1 am. a week from today.
 The first Red reaction to India's plan came last night in a Chinese language broadcast for home con- sumption.
 Peiping radio said Americas s intention to take back the prison CTS makes the Korean situation much more critical. It did not elaborate.
 India announced Thursday it's intent to turn back the 22,OOO to the JUN. Command and give back to the Reds the 21 Americans, one Briton and 325 South Koreans in pro-Red camp. Yesterday India made it clear that when the trans fer is being made any man wish ing to change his mind and go home will be allowed to do so.

Z? !? !? :?

BABCOCK has been in use
as a surname in England for
many centuries. 1t is of rela-
lively simple origin. For ex-
ample, according to so m
authorities on nomenclature, it
stems from "bab and "cock,
the former being a nickname
for Bartholomew and the lat
ter being a commonly is d
suffix which denotes "son of.
Bartholomew is the name of
one of the apostles and is OBJ
tanned from the Hebrew word
meaning Astounding in fur
rows. It is said also that
BABCOCK may be a form of
Bobcock; and in such instances
it was bestowed, when sur
names came into vogue, upon
sons of Bob or Robert, there
by making it the euivalent of
the surname Robertson.
Among the high ranking Of
ficerS who served in the Con-
tinental troops during the Rev

around the bottom of the petit
coat.
AS easy as cutting the ruffles
is making and applying them to
the petticoat! First bind the
bottom edge of each of the strips
with bias-cut taffeta in a con-
trasting color. Bind the top edge
of the 9-inch strip so that the
rough net won't snag your stock
ings. This is done easily and
quickly by using the simple
binder attachment which comes
with your sewing machine; it will
make the binding from the mar
row taffeta strip you have cut
and apply it to the net, all in
one operation!
Next step is to slip the binder
off the sewing machine and re-
place it with the ruff1er. This will
take a mere minute to accom-
pliSh. Adjust it to the correct
fullneSS you want in the bottom
ruft1e, and start sewing the mar
rowest strip of net to the petit
coat. You'll find that the small
ruff1er device you've just attached
to the machine will make the
ruffle and sew it right on the
petticoat at one time! This way,
you avoid tedious and difficult
hand sewing; if you wish, you
can actually make 10 whole yards
of ruff1ing in 10 minutes.
After you've made and applied
the bottom 6-inch ruffle to the
underside of the petticoat, simply
repeat the process for the two
ruff1es above it. Reset the guide
on the ruff1er for less fullneSs in
each than in the one below it.
When you've finished. the bot
tom edge of each of the three
ruftles should be even with the
bottom edge of the petticoat.
Add the rosebudS, or other ia
vorite spring posieS.
Your ''old" circular skirt has
emerged with an unbelieved
glamor all of its own.
