Health & Safety Center
Wasn't Safe Yesterday

COLUMBUS, Ohio, R-The
city's health and safety center
was not exactly safe or healthy to
be around for a time yesterday.
William Vanderson, mainte-
nance man, said the fuel oil lust
didn't look right" as 5000 gallons
was pumped from an oil company
truck into the center's heating
unit. He shifted the fluid, then
dashed madly around the center,
turning off valves.
The oil company later admitted
it made mistake in the delivery.
Oh, yes. That wasn't fuel oil
being pumped into the building.
It was gasoline.

All Switzerland Pays
3 Minutes Silent Homage
To Freedom Fighters

GENEVA, R-All Switzerland
stood in three minutes silent
homage Tuesday to the freedom
fighters of Hungary.
Throughout the country, all
traffic came to standstill and
pedestrians stood silently just be-
fore noon. All postoffices and
other public offices closed their
counters and radio stations inter-
rupted their programs.
The demonstration originated
with committee of Roman Cath
Ollie and Protestant churchmen.
Churches of all denominations
throughout the country rang their
bells for five minutes to launch
the silent period.
A few drivers in Geneva and
Zurich, presumably Communist
sympathizers, tried to ignore the
standstill but did not get far. The
roads were damned with standing
traffic so even the Communists
had to wait.

Up to Nome to Make City Attractive
Enough to Draw Tourists-Whaley

THE Alaska Visitors Associa-
ton cannot put tourists in Nome
We can sell them a trip to Alaska
but it is up to the people of Nome
to make this area attractive
enough to draw the tourists here"
This was a statement made BY
Frank Whaley, former Nomeite
and now managing director of
AVA, who gave a detailed report
on the activities of AVA to the
members of the Northwestern
Alaska Chamber of Commerce at
the Tuesday luncheon meeting
Major points of his report were
emphasized by large posters Civ
ing pertinent data on just how the
AVA funds are being spent.
The promotional work is under
the supervision of professional
agents SO that maximum results
are realized. The first step is in
ternal promotion to convince Alas
kans of the tourist potential in
the territory.
In the States, advertising is in
Guided in radio and television
shows and in newspapers and
magazines. In this connection,
Whaley mentioned that the ad in
the January issue of Holiday mag
azine will show a picture of PAN
ming gold in Nome.
This year, $4,000 welcome let
tiers signed by Gov. Heintzleman
were handed to visitors to Alaska
this year, together with lapel
buttons and bumper stickers
which proved very popular.
Over 1000 persons returned the
inquiry card also inclosed in the
welcome letter giving the AVA
valuable information as to the
visitors home states, kinds of
transportation, size of travelling
groups and the original source of
their interest in Alaska.
The Alaska Trade Manual
was sent to $500 major travel
agents all over the world to facili-
tate their work in selling Alaska
to their customers. A handsome
color folder, Discover Alaska"
has proved popular and AVA has
received requests for 100000 of
them to be distributed at conven-
tons and other large gatherings.
AS the budget allows, AVA
hopes to fill all these requests.
Travel to Alaska increased IS
percent this year, especially by
car, with the visitors spending
SIS million in the territory. The
last legislature set aside 100000
for national advertising, but in
order to draw this amount, $780,
900 must be collected by subscrip-
ton. One-fourth of the amount
collected in Nome will be re-
turned to this community for TO-
cal promotional work.
The Chamber Board has gone

on record as supporting the AVA.
A committee consisting of Don
Hungerford, Chuck Frazier, Rev.
Mecklenburg, and Boyd HARDWOOD,
with Jim Walsh as chairman, will
conduct the fund raising drive
here.
Guests at the Tuesday meeting
included Mike Walsh, Charles D.
Jones, Spencer Strand, and Ever

are thought Of as being acted
upon, the pronoun would have to
be in the objective case, thus:
This book is about THE Egg and

pened to THE Egg and Me-; a
chronicle Of the adventures
which happened to THE Egg and

In other words, in the title
THE Egg and l." the pronoun

thus creates the action, as: THE

all that is written in this story
II the title we're THE Egg and

that which is acted upon, as: All

colder weather, more moisture and
what he terms ''old-fashioned"
winters.
1t might be remembered that
only a few years ago the prevail

was that we were enjoying a
period of warmer weather and a
trend toward warmer winters.
However, in the last year, many
weather experts have predicted
just the opposite - that we are
now entering a period of colder
winters.
The latest prediction we take

DUMPING THE
PLANETS AROUND

DR.. Fritz Zwicky, California In
Stitute of Technology rocket ex-
pert, says that the hydrogen
bomb may be the salvation Of
man, rather than an instrument
of his destruction.
DR.. Zwicky believes that atomic
power, such as released in the
explosion of a hydrogen bomb,
can be used to create new planets,
which will have the plant-life OF
this earth. He believes this will
be done by humping the already
known and discovered planets out
of their orbits, and by transfer
ring great masses of matter across
space.
Such planets as Saturn, Nep-
tune and Jupiter, for instance,
might be moved, or part of them
moved, to a location where the
planet would be suitable for hui
man and vegetable life.
DIR. Zwicky also believes that,
by increasing the size of the moon,
gravitational pull would accumu-
late an atmosphere similar to that
which surrounds the earth. This
would enable this planet to sup
port human beings and vegeta-
ton.
The purpose of all this planet
humping would be to create new
areas for am expansion of the
human race. In other words, as
Columbus sailed to the West in
1892, we soon may be faced with
the exploration of new planets,
and the extension of human life
to other worlds. In fact, it seems
that this is only a matter of time.

ADVERTISING AND
CITCCECC

Advertising is perhaps the most
wonderful development of the
modern commercial age. 1t is the
maker or breaker of business, big
or little.
Advertising is the one factor of
successful sales that is most apt
to be overlooked by the mer-
chants of the smaller towns and
cities. This should not be SOL
Advertising is not the exclusive
weapon of big business; it is the
power that will make little con-
Germs. 1t is a science that requires
study and, be it said, real char
acter. 1t cannot succeed If it is
untrue; it must build upon faith,
honesty and confidence.
The Sidney Herald is prepared

their advertising problems. 1t may

April has been a fateful month
for the United States. The Revo-
lutionary War began in April in
the Eighteenth Century. The Wan
between the North and South, in
the Nineteenth Century, also be-
gan in April. A few decades
later, the Spanish War began in
April, and in 1917, the United
States went to war against Ger
many in April. The country'S last
two wars, however, have begun
in other months, SO that April
has lost some of its gravity.
World War II began for the
United States in December, and
the Korean War began for us in
the month of June
Easter falls ON April LIST this
ear because of the fact that
this is the first Sunday after the
full moon following the Spring
equinox. The equinox occurred on
March goth, and the full moon
followed on the 26th, thus Easter
automatically fell on April LIST
In April, for the first of many
months, the sun will rise earlier
in the northern states than in the
southern states, throughout the
month For example, In Boston the
sun will rise at SAB a. m. on
April 1st and by the end of the
month will be rising at Asst a. m.
In Charleston. S. c., the sun
will rise at SAB a. m. on April
LIST and by April 30th will rise at
STA a. m. Yet, on March LIST, the
sun rose at 6:28 a. m. in Charles
ton and 6:36 a. an. in Boston. Thus
the greater extremes of difference
between day and night in north
ern and southern states is seen.
The Boston calendar applies to
New England, New York State,
Wisconsin, North and
Dakota, Washington and
Oregon. The Charleston calendar
to Georgia, Alabama, Mis-
;iSSippi, Louisiana, Arkansas,
Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and
Southern California. The states in
between and Florida have Slight
different calendars.
BY June, the sun will be ris-
ng a full thirty minutes earlier
n Boston than in Charleston. In
the sun will rise about
half-hour earlier in Charleston.
April, then, is the month in
daylight hours in the north
out to compensate for
horter days in fall and winter

SOLVING THE
p SHORTAGE

A suggestion which might nave
considerable merit has come from
a radio commentator. He suggests
that the paper shortage facing
newspapers of the United States,
and many other firms, be solved
by planting croplands used to pro-
duce crops, which are nov in
surplus. in pulpwood. We T not
experts enough in the problem
of the manufacture of paper to
know whether this proposed So
luton is a practical one
However, we do know that
Canadian paper producers have
u. S. businesses requiring large
amounts of paper, over a barrel,
SO to speak. 1t is no secret that
the Canadian producers are giving
newspapers in this country "the
business" in the way of price in
creases. hiked periodically. This
has resulted in greatly increased
cost of publication and, as a re-
suit, increased cost for advertisers
and subscribers.
The soil bank idea, which the
Republicans wrote into the farm
relief bill recently, provides for
government payments to farmers
who take acreage out of produc-
ton, so that it will not be used
to produce crops already in sur
plus supply. If this acreage could
be planted in pulpwood, in time
it might help relieve the situation.
OF course, paper mills would have
to be erected in the country, prob
ably in the South and Southwest,
and it is interesting to note that
this process has already begun.
