Q-The cherry wood top of our
most treasured table was dented dur
ing moving. Can it be repaired?
A-Slight dents can be restored by
placing a damp blotter over the
damaged area and applying warm
not hot-iron to the blotter Repeat
until the dent disappears.
Give noticed damp spots on the
deck boards and rafters under the
roof of my house. I'm sure these are
leaks. What's the best method of find
ing the leaks and patching them.
A-From a practical standpoint,
there isn't any "best method for
this job since patching an old roof
generally is a mistake, according to
the U. S. Bureau of Standards. Roofs
wear out uniformly and chances are
that if you have one or two leaks in
an old roof, more are coming. The
wiseSt thing you can do, and the
most economical in the long run, is
to put on an entire new roof of as
phalt shingles in the color of your
choice. The new roofing generally
can be applied on top of the old,
eliminating the expense of tearing
the old material off.
Sometimes it's very difficult to
remove old putty from window
frame. Is there any easy way to get
it off?
A-One fairly easy way to run hot
soldering iron across the putty, just
ahead of your putty knife. The heat
will soften the putty and it will come
off more easily.
Q-The aluminium strips along the
edges of our kitchen counter tops
make black marks on clothing. What
can we do about this?
A-Oxidation is the trouble. Coat
the stripping with layer of thinned-
out shellac. This will have to be done
about once a year or when the shell
lac chips off.

Legend of Indian Run

Up in Stark County there's a
branch of Sandy River still known
as Indian Run after more than 100
years-it isn't much of a creek but
the story back of it is q whopper.
The run was named after the only
Indian fight ever known to have taken
place in Stark County.
John Cuppy, George Foulk, Isaac
Miller, Thomas Dillon and James
Downing Sr. were the five scouts
hired and paid by the government to
ascertain when Indians were in the
later Stark County woods and when
any We're found, to warn the white
settlements of their presence. The
United States gave them monthly
pay and furnished the ammunition

seen no Indians they concluded that
none were around and had become
less cautious.
Up to this time no gun had been
fired. 1t would have betrayed their
presence to any savages lurking in
the neighborhood. But with rations
already running short and no indica-
tions of Indians around, Downing shot
deer and one of the others brought
down a turkey. This was on the
morning of their fourth day out and
was between Little Sandy and Indian
Run.
A band of 18 or 20 Indians of the
Ottawa and Wyandotte tribes heard
the firing and cannily estimated the
location where they came from. They
divided into two groups to approach
fthe place from two angles-one from
the direction they believed the scouts
would flee in an effort to escape.
Both parties then started stealthily
through the woods towards their OBJ
| iective, not so much as rusting a
fallen leaf.
Cuppy, busily polishing his gun,
happened to look up and saw war
rior moving around peeping through
the bushes. He yelled to the others,
who were preparing the turkey for
cooking. The Indian saw that he was
discovered and ran but so did Cuppy,
firing as he ran, but missed.
Miller and Foulk grabbed up their
guns and gave chase, Miller ahead
when Foulk called to him to halt.
The former Indian captive knew that
the sparsely wooded place where they
were soon would end in more thickly
wooded ground and ahere the Indian
would dodge behind tree and shoot
Miller as he approached.
Miller stopped and he and Foulk
turned to go back to the spot they
had left. Meantime the other party,
six or eight Indians, appeared from
another direction. They were bold and
demonstrative. "Let us stand to-
gether", Cuppy said to Dillon. NO."
answered Dillon, "each for himself,
and started on run. Downing and
Cuppy kept together, moving eau
tiously towards the forks of Sandy
River. When the Indians pressed
them they would menace with their
guns, but not shoot. Soon they came
too close and Downing fired, killing
the first one.
Soon Downing and Cuppy caught up
with Dillon, who appeared exhausted
and about to fall. "For Gods sake"
he begged, "help mel" Downing turned
and saw that the man was choking
from his necktie. In his haste he had
pulled the wrong end and had tight
ened the tie instead of loosening it.
Downing loosened the tie and Dillon
was off again like shot.
Exhausted and able to run no
further, Downing and Cuppy decided
to fight it out where they were and
one got under thorn bush and the
other behind tree. Downing dropped
the foremost Indian but the others
fired a volley through the bushes,
hitting neither man.
Miller and Foulk heard the firing
and Fastening up, before they knew
it were among the Indians. Seeing
they were surrounded, the two men
determined on flight and made off at
full speed towards the north branch
of the creek. The Indians left Down
ing and Cuppy, threw down their
guns, grabbed their tomahawks and
with a scalp yell gave chase. At the
end of a mile and half Miller looked
back and no Indians were in sight.

Vaughan warns farmers that the
danger of exposure to nitrogen
dioxide in silage.
Prevention of the silo-filler's
disease is simple. Allow no one
to enter a siio for any purpose
from the time filling begins until
ten days after it is finished. Nj
trogen dioxide fumes are produc-
ed during thisc period.
In addition, good ventilation
about the base of the silo should
be provided during the dangerous
period, so that gases will be car
ried away. The area should be
fenced to prevent children and
animals from straying into it. A
flower fan should always be run
before entering silo.

G| Dependents
Hea|thP Plan Told
By the Associated Press

Congress has been told a
serviceman who wanted the
Pentagon's proposed medical in
surance for his wife and children
would be charged about $3.50 a
month.
Defense Department witnesses
before House Armed Services
subcommittee yesterday said they
expect the takers to come close
to 40 per cent Of service families,
II legislation for the plan Is
adopted.
The legislation would continue
practically intact the present
medical and hospital service pro-
vided by the armed forces own
facilities for dependents. But
witnesses have testified only
about so per cent Of service
families are so located that they
can use these.
The proposed insurance would
be optional with servicemen.
The Government would pay 20
per cent of its cost for basic
coverage - wife and children.
Other dependents could be added
at the seruceman's expense.
The insurance would be de-
signed to give approximately the
same service in civilian facilities
which dependents now receive
in military facilities. In response
to members questions, Comdr.
Frank Slatinshek said Blue
Shield had polled doctors and
found the great majority"
would be willing to participate
In the plan on a f1xed-fee basis,
so that medical costs could be
fully covered
But to other members who
wanted to know whether the
plan would guarantee medical
service to all participating de-
pendents, D. L. Martineau said,
1.-THE only way we can absolutely
guarantee service is by operating
our own facilities"

most to a standstil. The man
who should exercise t h e
powers vested in him by the
Congress Of the United States,
the man who lives here with
us, and is here with us most
of the time, apparently has
very little to say about the
operation Of Government. The
real power now is not in the
Governors Office but in Wash
ington, and it is there divided
between the Department Of
the Interior and the Comp
'troller. Such a situation is an
intolerable one. It would not
be tolerated for a moment in
business and, gentlemen, 1t
should not be permitted to
continue here. How can Gov
ernor Gordon perform sue
cessfully when all Of the
responsibility is his but the
authority to act and make de-
cisions has been taken away
from him and is exercised by
a group of absentees-indivi-
who have no knowledge
of the Islands, its people and
its problems.
This, Gentlemen, brings me
, 1956-12-12

to the discussion Of an elected
Governor. The situation now
existing here will not get bet
ter, it will continue to deteri-
crate. It cannot work and the
islands economy cannot begin
to prosper until we build up
under it a strong and sound
political base. We have seen
what has been happening in
Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico be-
gan to flourish only after they
were given the opportunity of
e1ecting its own Governor. Up
to that time, there was as
much conflict, chaos and I'M
rest in Puerto Rico as there
is on our Islands To-Day. NO
sane businessman would in
vest a dime in Puerto Rico
so long as the Government of
Rico was unstable as
it was prior to the election of
their own Governor. 1t has
been only since, they have
their own Governor
that millions of American
dollars has poured into Puer-
to Rico.

lands can make a move with
Iout first clearing it through
the. Office Of the Comptroller.
No such power has been Civ
len to the Comptroller in the
Organic Act.
Now, again if it were the
wish or the intent Of Congress
to set up a comptrollers Of
flee with such extraordinary
powers which he now eXer-
cises, there seems to me there
would be no need for setting
up the Office of the Governor.
So here again we have a situa-
ton with the powers of the
Governor dwindled a w a Y
from the Office Of the Cover
nor and being exercised by
the comptroller who, by the
way, spends most Of his time
in Washington and not here
on the Islands as he is sup
posed to do. We thus have a
situation where the power Of
the executive is in the first
place divided between the
Governor and the Interior De-
partment, and in the second
place, between the Governor
and the comptroller.
This has given rise to a
great deal Of friction on ques-
tions Of policy and admins
tration between the Governor,
the Comptroller, and the De-
partment. And, since t h e
Comptroller spends SO much
Of his time in Washington, the
real Executive Authority for
administering the Islands IS in
Washington and not here in
the Islands as it should be.
Again, gentlemen, absentee
ism, does not work.
The machinery Of Govern
ment has slowed down-al-

Another Of the difficulties
which accounts for so much
dissatisfaction here, and one
which gives the Governor
cause for so much concern and
anxiety is the power usurped
by the Office Of the Comptrol-
Ter. This unwarranted usurpa-
ton Of power by the Comp
troller further diminishes the
authority which is rightfully
the Governors. In setting up
the Office of the Comptroller,
the Congress, as / see it, was
DESTROYS and rightfully so, OF
having an office here in the
Islands responsible for the
auditing of all of the islands
records and to see to it that
the funds are properly ex-
pended. We agree wholeheart-
edly with this purpose. We are
as anxious as the Congress is
for the proper establishment
of controls. We, too, wish to
see to it that the funds are
properly spent. But, instead Of
serving as a comptroller or
auditor, the Comptroller has
set up an office exercising the
powers Of a super-governor,
an~office which not only con-
trolls and audits but makes
policy and decides questions
at the highest level, not only
for the Governor, but for the
Department Of the Interior as
well. Whereas the Congress
intended for the Comptroller
to control only the expendi-
ture Of funds, we find, Cen
tlemen, that no one here in
