KODIAK, ALASKA, JULY 25, 1sss
Lady Taxi Drivers

 flared up over whether women should be allowed as taxi drivers in Kodiak is another phase of the battle of the sexes which we thought was long since dead.
 Women have enjoyed the right to vote since the 18th amendment They have enjoyed the right to work prior to that and ever since the only question asked is: Are they qualified for the job?
 We have been toted around An chorage, Seattle and other cities by women taxi drivers-we have always arrived at our destination in good shape, our nerves intact and in good time.
 Women see and hear as well as men; their reactions are quick.
 Alright, maybe they can't man. handle fare slightly or greatly under the influence of the bottled goods S-but then again, maybe the presence of woman at the wheel might have Sobering influence on these gents who have had one too many.
 We'll go along with the idea that women who wish to earn a livelihood driving cab, should take their fare wherever they find them, and to wherever they want to go. No doubt they will.
 The female of tthe species can generally cope with situations in her own way and come out on top. Driving a cab or changing a dia- per, she will usually measure up to the job at hand.
 Besides, this way, if a gentle man prefers a blonde-taxi driver, that is-he can always get one.
 Excluding fish, 92 per cent of Alaska's food comes from outside the new state, according to an AP dispatch. A report by the Agricul- ture Department says Alaska's crop producing areas amount to only one-tenth per capita for the civilian population.
 ILLEGITMACY ON INCREASE. Financing care of the sharply ris- ing number of llegitimate children (now more than 100000 a year) is growing concern of budget-worried officials across the U.S., according to ANA News. $21O million will be spent in the next year on aid to children born out of wedlock.

New Secretary OF State Con-
firmed-The Senate laid aside its
work on labor reform to confirm
the Presidents nomination of
Christian A. Herter of Massa-
chusetts, to be Secretary of State,
succeeding John Foster Dulles,
who resigned on April 18th, be-
cause he was too i'll to carry on.
AS a symbol to the world of our
nations unity, Mr.. Herter's nomi-
nation was confirmed by vote of
SO to 0.
Prior to this action, the Senate
Committee on Foreign Relations
had briefly questioned Mr.. Herter
and unanimously approved his
nomination.
Soviet leaders may have hoped
for weakness, but they can expect
