TT was felt that Palmer had
set ain excellent example in what
a small city can accomplish when
ali citizens band together in al
community wide improvement
campaign, said Jane Douglas,
coordinator of civic programs,
LOOK magazine. Palmer has
added to Alaska's recent honorsI
BY receiving a citation of Hon
orable Mention in the 1857 LOOK
competition" she stated Palmer
was the only city to be selected
BY the judges for honorable men
ton.
In addition to Richmond, other
winners are: Admission, Ala; At
liant, Ga: Columbia, S. O.; De-
troit, Mich; Kansas City, Mo;
Providence, r. l.; San Juan,
Puerto Rico, and Syracuse, NY.
Mrs. Wooleock said today that
had black and white pictures OF
projects taken before and after
completion, been available, per
haps Palmer would have received
an even higher recognition.
Homemaker Clubs, the Scouts,
Legion, and many other local or
CARNATIONS participated in the
Beauty Palmer project Of the
Palmer Garden Club. All Of this
work and that done by several
business establishments and the
City Of Palmer, was submitted to
the magazine by Mrs. Woolcock
for Judging in the competition.
The Palmer Garden Club hopes
this citation will add impetuous
to what was started last year.
IF each merchant and resident
will first clean and maintain his
| or her. property, it not only adds
to their self respect, but that Of
their neighbors as well. Some OF
us are still having trash and gar
bage can problems. We suggest
for those who are interested to
take look at the Koslosky De
partment Store system, and use
that as an example. A good APP
pearance is better advertising
than wind distribution Of ones
trash, suggested a spokesman.

TOLL DlALING PLAN
FROM US. TO ALASKA
ANNOUNCED BY A.c.S.

A program to extend the bene-
fits of the nationwide toll dial
ing plan for the United States to
the Territory of Alaska was am
nounced last week by Colonel
Carl H. Hatch, commanding Off
Ger of the u. S. Army Alaska
Communication System.
Under the program ACS toll
centers at Anchorage, Fairbanks,
Ketchikan, and Juneau will be
equipped so that long distance
telephone calls between these
points and cities in the United
States can be dialed directly by
long distance operators.
Service from Anchorage and
Fairbanks will be inaugurated
early in January, 1859, when the
Pacific Telephone and Telegraph
Company places their automatic
toll switching equipment in OPP
Grafton at Seattle. Similar ser
vice will be extended to Ketchi-
kan and Juneau when funds and
equipment become available.
Indignation of the ACS with the
nationwide dialing plan will be
the most far-reaching advance
ment in communications for AL
aska since the Inauguration Of
the submarine cable service to
Alaska in 1856, Col. Hatch stated.
During September 1857, the
ACS transferred its responsible
tiles for operation of the Army
Command and administrative
network to control of the 9Th
Army in the states. In January
of this year, the Alaska portion
of this strategic military COM
network was trans
ferred to the control of the u. S. !
Army, Alaska.
Colonel Hatch commented that,
"As a result of the ACS being
relieved Of the responsibility for
strategic military com
for Alaska, the sys-
tenn is now concentrating on pro-
viding more efficient public Of
fering service to the territory"

House Consideration Of Alaska
 Statehood Put Off til Next Week

WASHINGTON, R - A move to bypass the House Rules Com mittee and bring the Alaska statehood bill to the House floor for consideration has been put off until next week.
 Rep. Leo O'Brien said the post ponement was at the suggestion of House Speaked Sam Rayburn.
 It was prompted, he said, by the probability that bills with precedence over the statehood proposal would occupy the House to the point where the Alaska bill would have been brought up on Friday this week.
 The Friday timing, it was feared by the supporters of the bill, would cost it the support of several dozen Eastern Congress men who normally return to

Anti American Violence In Lebanon And South America Seen As Commie
 Exploitation of Unrest in Those Areas

of the violence in the Latin Amer ican countries
 There are, he added, economic factors in the U. s. relationships with such countries as Uruguay, Bolivia, Peru and Venezuela.
 In Venezuela-Where Nixon and his party were stoned and spat upon yesterday-there have been rumors, Eisenhower said. that the United States is trying to impose quotas on such oil ex- porting nations.
 There is no truth to that, Eisen- hover declared.
 Then he said that U. s. eco- homie aid and world trade is as vital to this country as is proper defense.
 As for the possibility of the riots being Communist inspired, Eisenhower said it is an old story all over the world that the Communist try to exploit unrest.
 He said it looks like some sort of concerted idea or pattern. Eisenhower then said he was making no direct accusation, but that it looks like a case of a lot of smoke and therefore there is a possibility of some fire.

WASHINGTON, R - Presi- dent Eisenhower said today mob violence against Vice President Nixon in South America appears to reflect a pattern of Communist inspiration and exploitation.
 But, he told a news conference, he believes economic troubles are partly responsible for the anti-American demonstrations in such countries as Venezuela and Peru.
 Eisenhower said Communist in- spiration seems to be behind the demonstrations in some other parts of the world, but added that the unrest in French Algeria may be caused by something else.
 Eisenower spoke in response to a request for his assessment of the current wave of anti-Amer- ican demonstrations in South America.
 A reporter asked whether the President saw any pattern of Communist inspiration or whether it also could be case of gen. uine resentment against U. S. policies.
 Eisenhower said he does not believe there is any single cause
