Atom FIuttoD
Plan Delayed

The Navy appeared today to
have failed in an effort to in
clude a provision for building an
85.000-ton atomic-powered car
rier in the next budget recon-
mendation to Congress.
The proposal. it was reported
failed to get approval from the
Defense Department and budget
makers.
The reported rundown for the
1857 fiscal year budget does not
mean that the idea Of construct
ing a nuclear-powered carrier
has been discarded, some OF
those familiar with the project
and with budget making said
The request for congressional
authorization to start building
such a supersize. superpowereo
ship is being held in allegiance
pending further development
and study of designs for atomic
reactors and Of the ship itself
some of these officials said.
The plan for a big atomic
carrier was described in a story
carried yesterday by the Norfolk
(Va.) Virginian-Pilot. The news
paper said the carrier might
have as many as eight atomic
heat generators to develop steam
for driving the carrier at high
speed.
The Navy has disclosed Off
cially that more than half a
dozen different designs of re-
actors for surface ship propul-
sion are being developed.

Present Teaching Methods Discussed In A. E. q. Magazine

aas sNa @n b4 hSHSaS9Sa@sAa
 Educators in the Matanuska Valley are this week presenting varied programspan observance of American Education Week. The following article. taken from The Alaska Teacher. official organ of the Alaska Education Associa- lion. is reprinted as a timely and interesting feature which ap- Peared in the November issue of the monthly publication.
 A generous amount has been written recently describing the problems in the field of educa- tion. The President of the United States has expressed concern about the status of public educa- ton and has called a conference of lay and educational leaders from all parts of the states and territories to help define the com mon countrywide problems of the public schools and make rec concentrations for some solutions to these problems.
 In defining the needs of edu- cation today, it is fitting and nec- essary that we point up the weak spots in our present effort to edu- cate all of Americas youth. Many articles are currently appearing in the magazines of the day out lining what is considered wrong" with various aspects of what the writers feel to be re- presentative educational pro- grams.
 We need to recognize that many of the criticisms about the shortcomings in public education in general as well as the present indecision about the place of pub lie education in the moral and spiritual improvement of society are not always clear-cut issues, nor are they new. There never has been a simple, overnight, easy solution to all of the pro- blerns of education and 1t is questionable that there ever will be.
 Some Basic Issues
 Some of the critics of today submit that sizable percentage of the youth of today both in and out of the classroom, cannot read nor can they spell. The claim is further made that the fault lies, as they assert, in our casting aside the three R's, and particu- larly 'phonics." :"
 Now When I was in School"
 We'll, let's do go back to the good old days. In the good old phonetic days" the same asser- tions were made.
 The average American boy and girl of today spells better, reads more books, magazines and newspapers than did his ances- tors, and more than the average NlLlLCl O1 ally OAlC1 Aldt1OII III I4AG world.
 The 3 R's or What?
 The literature of today contains a dearth of expressions over what the primary function of public education should be. One group adamantly insists that the public school of today exists as a social laboratory for the primary pur- pose of building character and citizenship with minor emphasis on facts. Another group is equal ly concerned that the school de- vote its time to education in the } R's, or facts and figures and let the other take care of itself or some other agency do it.
 Again, this controversy is nei- ther new or different. About 2250 years ago, in Athens, Aristotle, one of the great teachers of the day, expressed the concern of that day about the status of learning. When remarking on the subject he said: There are doubts concerning the business (of edu- patiOnl since all people do not

Often homemakers, because of limited experience in preparing fish, find it difficult to put variety and in- terest into a meal which includes fishery food. From salt cod to cav far, there are fishery products to fit any budget. No matter the price, foods from salt or fresh water source contribute to nutri- tional needs. To build and repair body tissue, fish and shellfish, like meat and poultry, contain a high percentage of top-quality, easily digested protein.

Accidents Chief Cause Of AIaskon Deaths in Past Five Year Period

Juneau -AlaSkans are safer al work than they are "off the job", and home is one of the least safe places for them, according to figures disclosed in a study of causes of death in the territory which has been completed by the Bureau of Vital Statistics in the Alaska Department of Health.
 Accidents took more lives than any other cause from 1949 through 1853, the study, shows and were responsible for 1,188 of the 6,360 Alaskan deaths during that peri od. The study was based on statis- ties available for the first time in Alaska over a consecutive five-year period.
 Fatalities due to accidents off the job accounted for 72 per cent of the total accidental deaths for the five-year period. DroWnings were responsible for the highest of these casualties, followed by motor vehicles, fire, aircraft, falls, firearms and poisonings..
 Accidents occurring specifically in homes numbered 233 or nearly one- fifth of the total 1,188 deaths, with fire the chief killer and falls, poisonings and firearms taking the next highest tolls, in that order.
 Despite the large and important role travel plays iii Alaska, fewer accidents occurred in air, sea and land transportation activities than jn non-transportation pursuits during the 1949 through 1853 period. Accidental deaths report ed show that 47.4 per cent of the fatalities occurred in transport activities while 52.6 per cent were in non-transportation pursuits.
 Of the total 1,118 accidental deaths reported, 17.2 percent were in connection with aircraft acci- dents Gncluding military, 148 per cent with water transporta- ton, and IA per cent in motor vehicle accidents. Railway acci- dents accounted for 10 per cent.
 Not only are accidents taking the greatest number of Alaskan lives, the study shows, but the highest toll is in the prine of life period in the ages of 25 through A. For this age span the accident death ratio in Alaska was nearly twice that of the stat es, or 34.6 per cent of the total deaths as compared with the 18.8 per cent in the rest of the nation for the 1949 to 1853 period.
 Accidents can be prevented, /" F. F.. Hester, director of the Vital Statistics bureau emphasized and much of this tragic waste of life need never have occurred" :"
