Announce Revised Gsadss for
 Slaughter Hogs

u. 5. Department of Agricul- lures revised grades for slaught- CT hogs and pork carcasses be- came effective July 5. The change involves grade names and fat back thickness requirements according to information sent the Alaska Extension Service.
 One of the two major changes in the standards discontinues the use of the word Choice" in names of Federal grades for slau- ghter barrows and gilts and pork carcasses, "U. s. No. r., "U. s. Mo- 2'', and "U. s. No. 3'' are the new names, respectively, for the grades previously designated Choice No. r, Choice No. 2", and Choice No. 3". The names of the other two grades, Medium and Gull, remain unchanged.
 In addition to the name chang es, the minimum back fat thick ness is reduced by 0.2 inch for each grade except Medium, for which the reduction is 01 inch. The description specifications are also reworded slightly to re- fleet the reduced back fat thick ness requirements and to aid in uniform interpretation of the standards.
 The first official Federal grad es for slaughter hogs and pork carc3SSpS became effective on September 12, 1852, after several years of research, demonstration and testing. The grades are de- FRONTIERSMAN CLASSIFIEDS

Alaska Consultation
By Ben Hitchcock

~~~ ~~~~~S~A
 h talk about the Alaska Con- stitution. there has been some de- mand for a strong governor. [ have written to the Frontiers man in favor of strong legs latlre- -unhampered, that is, by statutory material in the con- ; titutiOn.
 The question rises as to Wheth- CT these ideas are iii conflict.
 Not necessarily. It depends up on the sense in which the word strong" is intended, which re- lationships of governor and leg lslature are referred to.
 IA good working system ot power relations between execu- tive and legislative branches has become established in federal and state governments. The leglsla- lures make the laws, the excu- tives put them into effect.
 A governor may advise, re- commend, or veto legislative acts, but he is not a laW-maker. II a strong" governor means one who takes the law into his own hands, Americans reject the con- cept. Our experiences with tyran7 nous governors before 1776, and with dictators of other nations in modern times, have not been favorable. In the main, when leg- islatures are functioning proper ly, we regard them as the prl- mary trustees of the peoples power, particularly when they are checked by popular initiative and referendum.
 On the other hand, there IS 3 different sense in which the chief executive of a state must De strong and authoritative. He is responsible for producing the results that the people want, as expressed by their lawmakers To do So, he must have authority over the administrative branches of government, and reasonable control over appointment of per Sonnel.
 Growth in government in the last few decades has been mainly in the executive branches, bott federal and state. A governor takes on a tremendous job o1 management, involving respon sibility as we'll as power. To be successful, he must have genuine authority.
 Most of us are concerned, no with strengthenin0 any official o1 bureau, but with increasing thu power of the people over al branches of government. It is no inconsistent to grant the execu tive authority to do his job, bu 1 1t must remain with the people themselves to decide what job we want done, and to judg' whether they are being done t our satisfaction.
 Our problem is to reconcile tht | principle of popular control Q l government with freedom of thu executive to administer his of flee within the limitations o that control.
 Though this may sound like contradiction, it is not. It's problem of working out the me chanicS, and this can be done.

Plymouth Shoots
For Biggest Year

Plymouth dealers sold more than
a half million new Plymouth cars
during the first nine months OF
1855 and are we'll on their way TO
the biggest year in their history.
r. c.. Burlan, Western zone sales
manager, made this announcement
TODAY in connection with a dealer
preview at Phoenix of PlymouthS
new aerodynamic 1856 cars. The
new models will be publicly intro
duced October 21.
Dealers from throughout Arizona
attended the special dealer and
press showing held at the west
ward Ho Hotel. The new cars were
also shown to the public in Holly
wood type "Sneak" preview later
in the day.
Burlan said retail deliveries pas
sed the half million mark in mid
September. Sales are up more than
rs percent over 1854 and are the
greatest for any comparable period
in Plymouth's history. Production
of 1856 models began late in Sep
tember and is expected to reach
peak of around $500 units day
late this month.
The 1856 models, he said, will
have more powerful engines, in
cluding an entirely new Hy-tlre
VS. produced at Plymouth's new
Qualimatic engine plant in Detroit.
Among other new features will be
a push button drive selector tor
Powerflite automatic TRANSMISSION,
new safety door latches and other
"built-in" safety items.
Plymouth will offer a new four
door Hardtop and also wide Sc
lection of Suburbans, which will be-
come a separate line of cars.
plymouth is gaining on the
other two cars in the low price
field, Burlan said. "Our share OF
the market rose from 7.3 percent
in 1854 to 81 percent in 1855. Our
goal for 1856 is lis percent of the

cridiron Snapshooting


Can you imagine a more Won
derful opportunity for good pic
lures than a football game? There
are players in action on the grid
iron, the pigskin flying across the
goal-line, the packed grandstand,
the mounting excitement of the
spectators, the cheerleaders, the
band-hundreds of picture posi-
bilities that deserve to be recorded
for your immediate pleasure and
future enjoyment.
There's no doubt about it-kick-
off time ought really be called
"click-off time! Every thud of a
toe against the pigskin. every
cheer from the crowd merits a
click of the camera. No one who
enjoys football can afford to for
get his camera when he goes to
a game-at least, not if he wants
a true-to-life record of the home
team in action.
The nice thing about it is you
can snap your pictures right from
the grandstand and get excellent
results. For here's a case where

actually helping slow down the
action so that your camera can
catch it clearly. Just load your
camera with film designed for fast
action, use a small lens opening,
select an interesting angle-ana
you can expect to get good prints
of the game in progress.
Once you have the prints made,
you may want to show your
photofnisher a particular portion
you'd like to have enlarged. He
can crop and enlarge it to snap
shot size for you so satisfactorily
that no one will suspect your pic
ture hadn't been taken by news
photographer way up close to the
action.
One more reminder is that even
a scrub game or practice session
can be big game for your camera.
Good football shots are where you
find them-sandlot or stadium,
small-fry or big-league style.

This could throw the long dis
pute into the courts. for the
Commissioners assert the District
code covering utilities would sup
port their belief the company
would have to operate on an
emergency basis.
District legal advisers have
considered several approaches to
the potential problem, with en-
phasis on what they consider
was Congress intention in speci-
flying franchise termination after
one year. District legal minds
believe this would. place an OBJ
legation on Capital Transit to
continue to operate for the years

Contract Problems Remain
However. the consensus at the
District Building is that the
company will try to reach an
agreement with the Commits
sioners II the President signs the

Even if that occurs. the prob
lens of writing a contract still
are great. The Commissioners
would have. to satisfy both the
company and union-and that
obviously isn't easy.
They also must keep in mind
that the District government
would be liable for operating
losses resulting from labor costs

the Commissioners if they found
it necessary to seek a court re-
