80 to ideal. District School
Supt. Carl F. Hansen wants
this remedied without aban-
doning the lunches.
Whether this is too much to
ask will be up to the Senate in
the days ahead.
The House presented to the
District q $4,000 free lunch
program for elementary chill
dren, but dipped into the
schools request for more
teachers to pay for it.
A Half Step More
The House allowed % teach
ers. out Of q requested so. to
enable the system to move at
least q half-step more in the
80 to / direction. But %
teachers-a full step-were lost
for the moment because of the
free lunch program. along with
q few supervisors of elementary
instruction and some assistant
Junior high principals. For the
House. deciding on a free lunch
program, took the $266, 900
headed into education and
turned it into free lunches.
There are two ways to look
ct what happened. One would
be that the House would prob
ably have cut $266, 900 from the
school budget anyway, and
school officials would be in the
same position they are now.
The other angle or guess. is
that had it not been for the
agitation for a free lunch pro-
gram, the school budget would
have remained intact, its edu-
cational program undisturbed
Or, it could have been $3.50, 900
richer in funds and q free
lunch program.
AS 1t stands now, the free
lunch program has shown it
can damage the educational
program. This much is certain.
1t has this ability. or sore point
about it.

teachers and the other posi-
tons.
But the chance may never
come. For there is more Of q
chance for the lunch program
surviving. than there Is for %
teaching positions.
There is little likelihood the
Senate viii wipe out any pro-
gram Of free lunches for hungry
children, particularly one based
on $266,000. or enough to cover
1000 children. And. as yet, no
one stands in opposition to free
lunches.
The District Commissioners.
for example. hope to reduce the
House designed free lunch pro-
gram from 1886. 1000 to $l33. 900.
They will ask the Senate for
this amount Of free lunches,
while planning to start the pro-
gram slowly and tightly con-
trolled.
Had the Board Of Education
and DR.. Hansen agreed with
the Commissioners on this res
toration plan. only six teaching
positions instead Of 20 would
have been at stake.
Colored the Thinking
To this extent, the vision Of
more free lunches instead of
more teachers, has colored the
thinking Of board members.
Whether the lunch program
viii SNOWFALL in future years is
anybody's guess.
Welfare officials say 1t will.
They point to free food dis
tributions. Last year. about
%, 500 persons received surplus
food. This year, A. 400 persons
have come into the program.
Free lunches now served in
the junior and senior high
schools have increased from
about 200 In 1853 to approx
mately $50 this year.
But DR.. Hansen is adamant.
He is positive the program, II
left in his hands, would not
run wild to a point where the
school system was deeply in
volved in a welfare program,
And he points to the apparent
success Of feeding hungry chill
dren from funds donated by
the public. a program which
has been In progress since the
FIRST Of the year and exclusively
in the hands Of school oficials.

Helicopters Hover for Clear Weather Search of Montana Earthquake Area

fore the avalanche hit the parents tent.
 Three helicopters were poised at West Yellowstone to operate the air lift to bring out the per sons in the lakes area above the Madison River Valley, where the quakes Monday night and Tues day hit with the most force.
 Many got out last night when buckled, broken U. s. Highway 287 was opened by a road crew, Idaho State Police reported. Some were able to drive out their own cars.
 For hours they had been trapped between the slide and damaged Hebgen Dam seven miles away.
 Police of three states - Idaho, Wyoming and Montana - worked side by side in the rescue efforts, along with sheriff's officers, Civil Defense workers, the Civil Air Patrol, Red Cross workers, men from military units and the U. S. Forest Service.
 Approximately 50 persons were injured, but only 27 remained in hospitals in four Montana towns. Six were reported in critical con- dition.
 Most of the victims were camp CTS enjoying outdoor vacations in the rugged wilds of southwestern Montana, less than 20 miles west of Yellowstone Park.
 The quake first struck near midnight Monday at Hebgen Dam and farther downstream in the Madison River Valley, famous trout fishing country.
 There were an estimated 22,OOO to 25,OOO vacationers in Yellowstone Park when the quakes hit, but no one was re- ported hurt there.

Steel Industry Statistics to be Made Public

WASHINGTON, (R - A collec- tion of facts about the steel strike will be released by the govern ment tonight in the hope of budg- ing the deadlocked negotiations
 Secretary of Labor James Mat chell said he would make public statistics his staff has gathered about wages, profits, productivi- ty, prices and related aspects of the industry.
 Mitchell, who announced his decision to release the report after conferring with President Eisen- hover, said he hoped the informa- ton would cause both sides to bargain a little harder and reach settlement"
 But in New York, chief federal mediator Joseph Finnegan said MitchelIs announcement had no effect whatsoever on negotiations Tuesday.
 The strike has lasted 36 days. Half million steel workers are out and 150,OO0 in related indus tries have been laid off

WEST YELLOWSTONE, Mont, R - Earthquake-born avalanches still trapped campers and fisher men in the wild mountains of southwest Montana today.
 The known death toll was eight, but it may go higher.
 Many vacationers officials don't know the number - huddled at make-shift camp ground on a hillside where they were supplied last night by air with blankets, water, food and cigarettes.
 Leaden skies today stalled a helicopter air lift rescue operation
 The overcast also delayed start of a bulldozer probe into the huge slide at Rock Creek campground U where the top of a mountain gave way Monday night and created a new hill 200 to 300 feet high. This search was to deter mine whether other quake victims may be buried in the bebris.
 Four of the dead were from one family. They were F. R. Bennett, 45, of Occur d'Alene, Idaho; his two daughters. Carole IT, and Susan, 5, and son, Tom, II.
 A 15-year-old survivor, Martin Stryker of Berkeley, Calif., told today how his father and step mother, Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Stry- ker, died in the slides.
 Martin and his brothers, John, 13, and Morgan, 8, were sleeping in a separate tent 20 feet away.
 "We could hear trees cracking " he said. "When we got out of the tent two trees had fallen across our car and another crushed our boat"

President Signs Measure Allowing State to Select Federal Oil Lease Lands

WASHINGTON, LR - Alaska will be able to select federal lands on which oil, gas and coal leases have been taken under an act signed by the President Tuesday.
 Under the Alaska Statehood Act, Alaska was allowed to select 102,550,00O acres of public lands in the next 20 years. Excluded were lands on which mineral leases were taken since signing of the statehood act.
 The new law, introduced by Representative Ralph Rivers, al lows the state to include leased lands in it's selections. Terms of the leases will not be affected, the land merely come under jurisdic- ton of the state.
 Rivers said upward of 20 mil lion acres of leased land are in- volved.

Crank Hurls Acid At Congressman

WASHINGTON, R - Repre- sentative Frank Thompson D- ND today said "a crank" tossed a fluid which he believed was acid into his automobile as he drove to the capitol Tuesday.
 The fluid, hurled from pass ing panel truck, burned a hole in Thompson's shirt and marred the paint on his automobile. Congress sional associates said Thompson had a burn on his shoulder the size of a dime.
 Thompson played leading role in House consideration last week of labor control bill, as a packer of a Democratic-sponsored meas ure opposed by most union lead CTS. The House first turned down a more limited measure and then passed a still more stringent bill than Thompson advocated.
 A source close to Thompson was quoted as reporting the con gressman said he had been getting anonymous threats over his labor bill activities.
 In answering reporters ques- tions, however, Thompson at tached no significance to the incl dent of the fluid. He attributed it to "the work of a crank"
 Police said Thompson told them it was possible he had an- gered the men in the truck by inadvertently cutting across their path in traffic.
 A sample of the fluid was ob- tained from the side of Thomp- sn's car and the FBI was testing it to determine what it was.

Follow-up Quake Possible

PASADENA, Calif., R - An other large earthquake is possible within two weeks in the Yellow stone National Park area, an ex- pert said today.
 It is possible, said Dr. Charles Richter of the California Instl- ute of Technology, but not neces- sarily probable.
 He said he thinks it is possible because a strong quake in the same area in 1895 was followed in about two weeks by another equally strong.
 Usually, succeeding shocks are smaller.

Japanese to Climb Mckinley in Arctic Scientific Study

TOKYO, tR - A Meiji Univer- sity official flew to the United States today to prepare for a 1860 Japanese scientific expedition to Mount Mckinley, the highest mountain in North America.
 Daisaku Goto, a mountaineering expert, is expected in Anchorage September 2, after visiting Amer ican mountaineering experts in New York and other cities.
 Goto said he will seek advice from American officials on how to scale the 2O,320-foot mountain next year and the necessary pro visions.
 Goto, who will spend about three weeks in Alaska, was sent by the university to prepare for a 15-man scientific group to study Alaskan archaeology and eth nology.
 Goto said he will also try to obtain detail maps of the noun tain from American Air Force authorities in Anchorage.
 The scientific team to be headed by Misao Watanabe, pro- lessor of cultural geography, is expected to leave Tokyo June 1, 1860, and will stay in Alaska for about three months.
 The cost for the expedition is estimated to be about 14,336, ,480 yen ($39,823.
 The team will be split into two groups, one scaling Mount McKin- ley. Another will explore the re- gions from Anchorage, Juneau, Sitka, in the south to McGrath, Nome, Fairbanks and Kotzebue in the north.
 An official of the university said the team will survey the existing cultures of Eskimos and Indians in comparison to Asian cultures so that the extent of intermingling and migration of races could be determined.
 The official said the present theory is that the races and cul- lures of North America have come from Asia via the Boring Strait through the Soviet peninsulas of Chukotsky and Kamchatka.

Cruening Calls on SeatOn to Validate Promise to Settlers

WASHINGTON, LR - Senator Ernest Gruening still wants In terior Secretary Fred Seaton to sit down and listen to a recording of remarks he claims Seaton made in Alaska last year.
 Those remarks, says Gruening, gave the impression Seaton would not oppose legislation to grant oil and gas rights to certain settlers on Alaska's Kenai Peninsula where oil has been discovered.
 In a recent letter to Seaton, the Senator says Seaton assured the homesteaders the matter of min eral rights. would be untangled to their satisfaction.
 Gruening claims Seaton told the settlers "the only remedy you have is to get the law changed" '"
 A bill introduced by Gruening to accomplish this has been stalled in committee by opposition from the Interior Department.
 Tt is clear," says Gruening, "that the bill will never be enacted in the face of present departmental opposition. I have done my utmost to make it possible to validate your promises. It is now up to you"
 Under a 1922 law, the govern ment retains mineral rights to land for which homesteaders have not filed papers of proof that they have fulfilled require ments or title under the Home stead Act.
 This provision went into effect in May, 1857, when the Kenai was declared a potentially productive oil and gas area.
 The settlers claim they settled on the land in good faith and were carrying out requirements of the Homestead Act when the dec laration was made They feel that those who were on the land prior to oil discovery should be given mineral rights to their land.
 Gruening's bill would accom- plish this by amending the act.
 T would like to repeat now for the third time my invitation to you that you sit down with me and listen to a playback so you can assure yourself that it is in deed your own voice speaking and that the quotations 1 have made from your remarks are fair ones and not taken out of context, " Gruening wrote to Seaton.
