Report From Sen.
Seott's Office
BY BILL WHITLEY
Press Secretary To Sen. Scott

WASHINGTON - The old queS-
ton of what to do about foreign
trade is one of the toughest and
most controversial issues facing
this session of Congress.
A general tightening Of the do
meStic economy has thrown con-
siderable support behind the high
tariff school of thought. The So
called protectionistS" argue that
high tariffs are needed to keep
cheap, foreien-produced products
off the American market at a time
when competition is keen among
domestic producers.
STOCKS. The argument over
trade policy is taking place under
unique circumstances. Sentiment
for high tariffs is increasing at a
time when surpluSes are piling up
in all agricultural products - at
a time when increased exports are
Sorely needed to reduce the back
log of commodities now stored in
warehouses.
NEW APPROACH. In an effort
to help break the logjam now
choking world trade, Senator w.
Kerr Scott has proposed what he
calls a plan for World Food
Bank.
Under his plan, free countries of
the world would set up a food bank
along the lines of the Internation-
al Bank for Reconstruction and
Development.
Under Senator ScottS plan,
countries With abundances of food,
fiber and other agricultural pro-
duets would loan needy countries,
through the world food bank. food
and other raw material TO fight
hunger and famine
Such plan, Scott said. would
permit countries with over sup
plies of food to get it to areas
where hunger is running rampant.
And it wouldn't be a give
away program. he said. That

be a business like way of getting

food and fiber production. The
same approach is working very
we'll as to financial needs through
the international bank. II it can
work with dollars, it can work
with food
Scott said a world food bank
would 60 a long way toward turn

Asia is a perfect example. A world

Major Lambert was speaking in

program. a continuing effort to
prevent tragedy and loss from

Obedience to the Signs of Life,
as the traffic signs are called is
fundamental to safety on the
highways. according to the major,
This is obvious from the fact that
more than half the drivers in
volved in fatal accidents each
year were violating the law at
the time. most of them laws ex-
pressed by signs or other devices

Traffic signs, control devices

the Signs of Life. Obeying them
greatly reduces the possibility of
traffic accidents. Ignoring them
increases the possibility of hurt

Major Lambert suggests that
everyone review the five basic
highway sign shapes:
Octagonal the stop sign;
diamond - the caution signs of
all kinds: rectangular - laws
and regulations; round warn

and the railroad crossbuck-

No Delinquency In Beersheba

The city is being laid out in
sections which are to be, as it
were, independent cities. The idea
behind it is to preserve the feel
ing of the small town as the city
grows. It has been found that as
soon as a town gets above the
5000 population mark, the COM
munity feeling is lost. So in Beer
sheba, it is hoped to preserve the
small town feeling even as the
town strides toward metropolitan
size. This is to be done by a pro-
cess of "fragmentizing." Each Sec
ton will have its own business
areas, theatres, parks and so on.
Further, there will be a larger

little juvenile delinquency.
When the Jews took over Beer
sheba some seven years ago, it
had population of several hun
dred. Today it has population of
10000. Beersheba is one of the
Oldest of towns. Abraham dug a
number of wells there, say the
Bible and the legends of the Tai
mud go farther and say that
Abraham erected hotel in Beer
sheba-or maybe it was only a
motel-with entrances on all
sides, so that no wayfarers would
miss it.
The town still has some of its
antiquity. If Abraham were alive

Alaska Population Shrinks 5000 In '54 Reversing Trend

SEATTLE, R-Alaska's civilian population Shrank by about 5000 persons last year, reversing an up ward trend of the previous five years, Robert De Armond of Ju- neau said Tuesday in Seattle.
 De Armond, special assistant to the territorial governor, B. Frank Heintzleman, said the Alaskan civilian population increased by 5000 each of the five years prior to 1854. But last year, 5000 fewer moved to the territory than left for the states.
 "This is due largely to taper ing off in defense construction, " De Armond explained. Tt is too early to tell if the trend will con- tinue this year, but I think it will"
 De ArHond said Alaska now has civilian population of 20O,- 900, including 35,00O Indians and ESkimOS. They are spread thlnly over the vast territory of Alaska, which is 586,OO0 square miles in area.
 New industries continually are being established in the territory, De Armond reported, giving pros perity to southeastern Alaska cities. But the tapering off in defense construction poses prob lems for such cities as Anchorage and Fairbanks.
 De Arnond is interviewing Seattle people for positions in the new Alaskan Department of Fin ance created by the last legisla- ture. At least two persons, a director and budget officer, will be named later De Armond will leave for Juneau on Saturday.

Says It Isn't True US. Loses Control Of Air To Russia

WASHINGTON, R- President Eisenhower said today it just isn't true to say the United States has lost control of the air to Russia.
 Eisenhower was asked at his news conference about a state ment by Sen. Symington O-Mo) that the Soviets have gained as tendency in air power.
 The President replied that was very general statement. He said air power is a relative thing.
 Anybody can gain control of the air by concentrating at a given point and within a given space of time, Eisenhower said. He added the Germans did that as late as January, 1945, when they plastered Allied air fields. That was in the late stages of World War II when the Allies had overall command of the air.
 Eisenhower said that in prac- tice runs the Russians have flown over Moscow numbers of air. planes. He said there are a few among these in which the size of the engines and the size of the airframes indicate they are cap able of carrying big loads long distances.
 What the technical condition in side these bombers is, nobody here knows, he added.

He said one member of the gang was to have called police few minutes before the scheduled pm. mail robbery to report fake burglary on the far side of Las Vegas. It was hoped this would draw many officers away from the postoffice area. Another member of the gang was to telephone police about the same time, pretending he was a sheriff's deputy, and requesting that detectives go out to pick up two men wanted for local burg larieS"
 Last night police car, with out the cash, was ready to go, manned by two officers and a postal employe who had been in formed of the plot and volunteer ed for the job.
