Icy east winds spread snow and
peril over Greece and Turkey.
Italy ordered police and troops
into grim fight to save scores
of snowbound villages.
Central Sweden reports its low

Permanent Operating
Rights for AirIines
Serving Alaska Proposed

WASHINGTON, R = Airlines
operating within Alaska or Ha-
wall or between the United States
and Alaska would be able to get
permanent operating rights under
terms of a bill introduced by Sen.
Magnuson O-Wash.
Carriers operating solely within
either territory could obtain per-
manent certification merely upon
a showing they have performed
satisfactory service. Those flying
between the States and Alaska
would have to show performance
of satisfactory service from Jan.
l, 1856, until enactment of the
bill.
The carriers, who would have
to apply within 100 days of the
bills passage, would be limited
in their permanent authority to
the service now performed under
temporary certificates.

Needs 100 Scalp Stitches

NORTH HOLLYWOOD, R =
Nearly 100 stitches had to be
taken in 21year-old Ricky Pol

as he played in front of his home

out clothes when she heard
screams, rushed to the front of
the yard, found Ricky bleeding
and the two dogs being chased
away BY a woman.
A neighbor said she saw the
larger of the dogs shaking Ricky.
The dogs were captured and are

Whales Heart
Hard to Study

WASHINGTON, R-Dr. Paul
Dudley White, heart consultant to
President Eisenhower, has report
ed one setback in his effort to
record the heartbeat of Califor-
MIA gray whale.
The National Geographic So
ciety, sponsor of the expedition
he heads in the Pacific, reported
today receipt of a radiogram from
DR.. White saying he. still is OPP
timiStic.
White sent word that a small
boat which approached large
female whale and her calf on
Tuesday was badly damaged
when the whale turned and
struck the boat.
No one was hurt, and the boat
limped back to the mother ship,
the Dorado, off the coast of Baja
California.
The small boat carried har-
pooners who hope to shoot har-
poems into a whale long enough
so that attached wires can carry
back electrical impulses recording
the whales heartbeat.
White has said he hopes to
learn more about the operations
and variations of mammalian
hearts of all sizes.

things, and it is vitality important for peo-
pie to keep themselves in good health and
keep their resistance high, so that they will
not be susceptible to attacking germs or
viruses, which might or might not be pres

But. until cure for cancer is found,
it is certainly wise for all Americans to
take normal precautions to investigate any
thing suspicious. And-rather than fearing
an inve igation-periodic checkups are
advisable, since cancer, if caught early
enough. can be cured in most cases 1t j..

ease in time will almost certainly be able
to rid himself of the danger and survive.

Cancer Precaution

4 DOCTOR, writing recently in nation
al publication, pointed out that cancer
that many Americans were so afraid of
cancer that they did not have the courage
to be examined for signs or evidence of the
disease. Moreover, the doctor wrote that
some patients when asked to undergo an
examination to determine if tumor, or a
growth, was cancerous, automatically con-
clude they are dying of cancer and some
times even gave up in despair and terror,
resigning themselves to an early death.
1t seems reasonably certain that, event
ually. cure fer cancer will be found Just
as tuberculosis was almost sure death
when discovered, some years ago. and now
is on its way to extinction, cancer will also
some day be conquered.
There are indications that cancer could

two-thirds of all immigrants to the United
States were males. Today, three out of five
immigrants are females.
Up to the age Of twenty-four, males
still eutnumber females, but from then on
up, females are more numerous. All Of
which means that for the gal marrying be-
fore age twenty-four her chances are bet
ter because there are more males in these
age brackets than for the girl marrying
after the age of twenty-four.
Or put another way, men are in less
danger of being trapped if they can reach
the age of twenty five without having
walked to the altar.

to the Employment Act of 1876.
This was vicious act Ray D.

this Act be amended. l. however.
cannot imagine President Essen

What This Means
Until then. those who now receive

investors will suffer. Already our

Changing Climate

IN SPITE of recent forecasts for colder
winters, and dissents from the prevail
ing theory that the earth is warming up
steadily, over the years Dr. Helmut +.
Landsburg, director of Climatologv for the
L. S. Weather Bureau, reasserts the re-
cently-eNpressed theory that the earth is
definitely warming up.
DR.. Lansburg says the average temper
allure increase in the Eastern United States
is two or three degrees a century He points
out that the ice masses in the Artic regions
are melting away, while the temperature in
that area goes up ten to twelve degrees each
one hundred years
This steady change may be important
to future generations although it will not
be a great amount of help to present day
citizens The added heat will gradually ex-
tend the growth line of various plants and
trees further north, and eventually it will
mean lower heating bills for most Amer-
cans.
However the process is so slow that it
IS hardly noticeable in ten or twenty year

what can be purchased in terms Of
food. rent. clothing. education. en-
tertainment. etc. definitely fore
cast that the cost of living will
gradually increase during the next
four years of the Republican Ad-
nlinistration
The promise Of new highways.
Stun clearance. and other worthy
projects will all cost more than ex-
pected. When you go under a new
steel bridge on one of these new
highways. remember that from 1916.
when the Employment Act became
law. to the present time. the price
of steel has just about doubled. Ger
tainly the automobile industry and
most Of the increase in all plant
capacity depend on steel. Steel and
related industries employ so per
cent of our mass produc tion
workers
Interesting Statistics
The expenditures which can de-
pend on government money will
continue but expenditures for prod
ucts bought on installnfents may
suffer. Here are some more figures
to think over Since 1899 the Gov
eminent debt has increased from
$40 billion to s275 billion resulting
in an increase in the money supply
from 500 billion to s2l3 billion and
private debt has risen from $lz5
bill on to around $3.50 billion.
The great surprise to economists
is that the cost Of living has not
gone up more during this period.
The main reason is the new inven-
tons and installation OF new ma
chinery reducing the need for hand
labor Inventors-not government or
bank officials-deserve thanks that
the cost of living is no higher than
it is today Nevertheless, l forecast
that automation. including electron-

period The important thing, however is
that DR.. Landsburg says the earth is con-
tinuing to grow warmer and that he dis
agrees with recently expressed theories that
this trend is changing and that winters
will be colder with the earth consequently
becoming colder.
AS far as we are concerned, we are in
favor of warmer winters, and generally
warmer weather, with warmer earth. The
warmer eartn creates conditions which al
low the growth of a greater food supply
and this may be important to future gener-
ations. but mainly it makes living milder
and more pleasant in most areas Of the
country. One can always find a cool spot
even if he has to go up a mountain to reach
higher and cooler attitudes.
However, it is not too easy to find warm
weather especially for those who are not
able to travel or stay away from their
homes for long periods Of time. And we
think warmer climate will be an aid to
invalids, sportsmen and to those who en-

What About Stockso

FIRST time in history is urging that

stead of into savings banks. life in

investments, Only the future can
tell whether this advice is good. For
the past ten years the prices Of
stocks have been advancing. but
how long will this continue? For

must be selling these same stocks.
What would happen if all persons
should decide now to sell instead Of
to buy?
Finally. let me remind readers
that the cost of plant. book value,
and various other statistics do not
determine the value of stock or
the price which you receive when
you want the cash. Ultimately. the
price of stock depends upon the
earnings. Initiation increases costs
