them. They are not high grade
clerks or skilled craftsmen. A
competent professor is a man
with intellectual talents far be-
yond the ordinary person. He
invests more years in the de-
velopment of his talents for his
life's work than any other pro-
fessional man except the medi-
cal doctor. He is sought after
by business, government, and
international agencies at salar-
les considerably above univer-

Supporting his argument with

10 years experience in his pro-
fession. Moreover, Delaware's
chemistry department faculty
were, until recently, receiving
salaries averaging less than
those offered to the doctoral
graduates they are producing.
"Niggardly pay for the col

take a job elsewhere" DR.. Per-

Food prices should be stable
in 1860 and help hold initiation
in check, according to Ralph w.
Burger, president and board
chairman of the Great Atlantic
and Pacific Tea Company. Album
dant food supplies will continue
into the new year, said MIR. Bur-
ger, "and there is strong evil
dence that consumer prices will
be similar to or slightly below
the low levels reached during
1852" The nations leading food
retailer also forsees an industry
wide leveling off in new store
openings, diversified stores in
many areas which are already
over stored, and the trend OF
the past decade toward the
stocking of more and more non
food items. He said he expects
the pulling power of promotion
al sales gimmicks and givea-
ways to decline. 81 believe the
industry has just about reached
the saturation point in construc-
ton of store units in certain
areas" he observed. 1T has
been growing faster than the
population increase and popula-
ton shifts. Of course, none of
us can afford to ease up in our
efforts to remain modern and
to replace old stores with new
ones" During 1859 Arp itself
opened approximately 255 new
stores. Many of these, he point
ed out, were designed to serve
established neighborhoods where
Ill older ARP stores were clos
ed during the same period. An
other 800 stores were remodled
during the twelve month period.
NOn-FOOd Items
1--WE anticipate that our con-
struction program, including re-
models, will follow similar
pattern during the coming year,
he announced. On questions of
store size and non-foods, MIR.
Burger expressed a belief that
continued increases in either of
these areas will discourage the
average housewife. "One-stopI
shopping for groceries was al
goal that progressive people in
the food industry sought for
years, and it has become hand
some reality in recent years
with the evolution of the mod
ern food Super Market that is
the envy of the world" MIR.
Burger said. "And today's shop
ping centers effectively concen-
trate the source of almost any
thing householder buys. But
with the improvements in home
refrigeration and expansion of
kitchen storage space, the aver
age housewife today shops for
food supplies that will feed her
family from three to seven days
and therefore is inclined to pre-
fer separate shopping expedi-
tions for her food needs and
non-food purchases so while
one area shopping seems here
to stay, the idea of buying
everything under one ceiling ap-

in Mr.. Burgers opinion, "be-
cause the consuming public real

and the expense of such pro-
motions ultimately must be add
ed to the cost of doing bust.
ness" In reviewing the past
decade, Mr.. Burger noted the
sharp rise in demand for "con-
venience" foods, including a
revolution in frozen items and
ready mixes as well as giant
strides in the development of
pre-packaged merchandise, par
ticularly in meats and fresh
fruits and vegetables. "Increas-
ed demand for built in maid
service has been in almost di-
rect proportion to the increase
in take home pay of the aver
age family" he noted, land with
the prospects bright for a con-
tinuation of personal income
increases, there is every reason
to believe that convenience
foods will command more and
more shelf space" The biggest
news for consumers during the
past year, the Arp official said
was the marked decrease in
food prices at time when the
over all cost of living index was
reaching an all time high along
with a record personal income.
Coffee Drops
MIR. Burger attributed much of
the food price index dip to low
er retail prices for coffee, meat,
poultry and fresh produce. Cof-
fee prices dropped about 20 per-
cent during 1859 and currently
are only about half of the all
time high prices of June 1854.
Another milestone in the de-
velopment of the industry, ac-
cording to Mr.. Burger, is re-
tailings evolution in the field
of human relations retailing,
particularly food retailing, has
as a promising career
for intelligent and ambitious
young people" MIR. Burger said.
Even in the absence of Govern
pressures, the industry
has purged itself of long hours
and low pay scales, and today
offers more incentives than
many other fields of employ
ment." AS Arp starts its Sec
ond century of catering to the
food needs of the American con-
sumner, it was founded in 1859,
Mr.. Burger pledged continual
ton of the company's 100 year
old policy of placing top quail
ity and low prices above all
other considerations. Il firmly
believe that we have an obliga-
ton to our customers to make
available to them the best pos
sible quality at the lowest pos
sible price and to strive con-
stantly to achieve economies of
distribution that will result in
better foods for less money"
he said.

U. s. Re-Affirms Defense
 Commitments With Allies

WASHINGTON, REThe United States said Tuesday it would up- hold its defense commitments with it's allies if Russia should strike at their bases.
 This was the reply given Soviet Premier Khrushchev's threat to hit back with rockets at any base which a U. S. ally allows to be used for spy flights into the Soviet Union.
 The United States also promised Japan that it has not and will not use its high-flying U2 jet planes based there for flights on intelli- gence missions over Red territory.
 However, State Department Press Officer Lincoln White, who issued the U. s. statement, declined to say that the United States would not continue to use other planes or planes based elsewhere for reconnaissance trips over Communist territory.
 "We're not closing our eyes to surprise attack from any direc- tion," White said. You can as- sume we will keep our eyes open"
 This was in line with a stand taken by Secretary of State Her ter after briefing Congressional leaders on the Russian claim to have shot down a U. s. plane deep in Russian territory May 1.

Soviet Espionage Has
 Haunted U. s. Since WWII

 Several trials concerning Soviet espionage in the United States have made headlines since World War II.
 Julius and Ethel Rosenberg of New York were executed in 1853 for betraying A-bomb secrets to the Soviets.
 Col. Rudolph Ivanovich Abel, convicted in 1857 of conspiring to transmit defense and atomic se- crets, was sentenced to 30 years in prison.
 Jack Soble, admitted Soviet spy, was sentenced to seven year term in 1857.
 Mark Zboroski, a Russian-born anthropologist, was sentenced to five years in 1857 after being con- victed of perjury - lying to a federal grand jury about his asso- citation with Jack Soble.
 Morton Sobell, convicted of being member of the Rosenberg atom-spy ring, was sentenced to 30 years.

Ketchikan Blaze Cuts Marine Bldg.

KETCHIKAN, R - The two- story Marine Hotel building in the heart of Ketchikan's business dis trict was destroyed by fire early Tuesday.
 Nine business establishments, including the hotel rooms on the second floor of the frame struc- ture, were wiped out. A cafe in an adjoining building suffered heavy water damage.
 Loss to business inventories and to the building, owned by L. H. Kubley, was estimated at more than $125,000. The cause of the blaze was not immediately de- termined.
 It was the second major down. town Ketchikan fire of the year, and the fourth in the last three years.
 The scene of the blaze, fought for more than six hours before it was extinguished - was the cor ner of Front and Mission Streets, where the St. George Hotel burned a quarter of a century ago.
 Four persons, including Fire Capt. Jerry Phillips and volunteer fireman Bill Metchell, were over come by smoke and hospitalized.
 Ed Short, owner of the Pioneer Bar in an adjoining building, also was hospitalized during the height of the blaze after suffering slight heart attack caused by over exertion.
 One of the businesses lost in the fire was the Tom Sawyer Flower and Gift Shop, which recently had reopened in the Marine Build ing after being burned out Jan. 25 in big Front Street fire just two blocks from the scene of the new blaze.
 The building itself carried a val uation of $61, ,62O on the city tax rolls.
 The building stood across the street from the Ingersoll Hotel, Ketchikans largest, at one corner of the intersection. The Alaska Steamship Go. warehouse and of flee is located across the street on another side of the busy inter section
