Renewal Will
Be Pushed,
WeIIinq Says

District Engineer Commits
Sioner A. c. yelling said last
night the Commissioners will
push ahead on all fronts" with
urban renewal despite such
showdown efforts as the Rabaut
bill.
Interviewed by Washington
newsmen on station WWDC's
radio program, Report to the
People, Gen. yelling said
Washington's redevelopment
needs are too pressing to be
delayed. citing blighted areas
in Northeast, two sections of
northwest, and the Southwest
redevelopment area.
Passed last Monday by the
House, the Rabaut bill would
halt further renewal programs
until the Southwest project is
so per cent completed. 1t would
also take renewal programs
away from the National Capital
Planning Commission and give
them to the Commissioners.
Representative Rabaut, Demo-
crat of Michigan, is the bills
sponsor.
If the measure is passed by
the Senate, Gen. yelling said,
the Commissioners may ask for
alternative" legislation to
speed up urban renewal.
Asked if he thought that re-
newal and highway projects in
the city take priority over
homes, the Commissioner said
only a minimum number of
homes had been displaced so
far.
Some highways should take
precedence" he said, even over
recreational areas and schools
in some cases.

The Annual Teen-Age Exodus

DASSING THROUGH NOME this past week have A been almost 300 children from villages all along the Arctic and Boring Sea coast.
 It is wonderful that we have government which is so concerned about the education of the Eskimo youth that it will transport them free of charge and educate them free of charge through high school. Where else in the world would government pick up the tab for thousands upon thousands of miles of travel by air for hundreds of children?
 However, there is created by this program growing concern. Children uprooted from their homes at the sixth grade level and shipped away for nine mouths out of each year gradually drift away from their families and by the time they of high school age their home responsibilities, home discipline and even home religion is not as binding should be for the young teenager Hence have group of young pople growing up who either drift away con- pletely or become delinquents.
 The home is the foundation of the nation and if the money used for transportation could be diverted to boarding facilities at Nome, Unalakeet and Kot- zebue all these children would be in closer contact with their families, their friends and more actively interested in the part of Alaska which is rightfuly theirs to develop If the youth continue to be trans planted how can Northwestern Alaska grow? This is serious problem which doesn't take psychologist to understand.
 Since Mt Edgecumbe cannot take care of all of those needing education, would 1t not be more prac- tical to build school boarding facility at Nome and divert some of the students and try it ou rather than ship them all the way to Oregon We are building new state and we need our young people at home.

Letter To The Editor

If you will take a ride out 10 the cemetery and drive by the vault, on the northeast end of it you will see a spruce tree about eight or ten feet high. This tree was brought from Council and planted by Barney Coggins right after the tailings were hauled 10 the cemetery It is to me, proof that all we need on the thaWed hills back of Nome is to plant young spruce in the willow patches, which gives them pro- lection from the snow drifts in the winter.
 At about the same times Rube Cramer scattered some spruce seeds on several graves. At Rube's funeral here I noticed several young spruce trees growing and l assume they are from the seeds he planted.
 The larger part of the ground on the coast range back of Nome is thawed ground and in my op- inion, this showing in the ceme- tery proves that spruce will grow there. If the Boy Scouts would make this project and scatter spruce seeds in the willow patches we would soon have the whole of the southern exposure covered with spruce By planting wild entrants and raspberries also in that time it would be a pleasing sight to see the mountains coV- cred by growing spruce and the addition of small fruits to our blueberries, salmon berries and moss berries.
 I have written to the Univer- sity of Alaska about the planting of wild rose hips which grow in profusion on the roads near the college. I have asked whether the roses will grow from the hips or if one has to transplant the roots. A profusion of blooming wild roses is a wonderfully beau- tiful sight.

your dog a scientifically balanced diet, appetizing flavor and aroma.
 An alert, properly nourished dog will quickly learn the commands of "heel'', "sit" and "come" if the trainer is patient, consistent and fair. Keeling means that the dog walks at the trainers side with his head close to the trainers knee. To teach this command, place the dog in heeling position. Walk with the leash slack, praising the dog when he comes along in place. When he steps out of line, pull him into position, commanding "heel". Jerk the leash momentarily. When the dog learns that the right position wins him praise, the wrong one discomfort, he will heel.
 To teach the dog to sit, the leash should be ierked as the command is given and the dog pushed down into sitting position. Repeat the exercise until the dog obeys the command instantly. If the dog is slow to sit, the trainer must slap the dogs hind quarters with his hand or the end of the leash.
 To teach the dog to come, the trainer backs away d sbort Distance, holding the leash slack. Then he gives the command, jerking once on the leash. At first the dog may be coaXed to come, but if good perform ance is rewarded with praise and a Hunt Club Breakfast Biscuit, this command is speedily mastered.

Questions and Answers


 Q. I am 50 years old and have paid into Social Security from time to time for approximately 12 years. l am employed now and paying Social Security. If I should change to Civil Service em- ployment, where Social Security tax is not paid, could I, upon re- th'ement, collect Social Security checks?
 A. If you are now 30 Gin fact, any woman born in 1909 or later) you need 40 quarters, or ap- proXimately 10 years of work, to qualify for payments at retire ment age. W course, since So- cial Security payments are. based on average earnings throughout your working life, the amount of you payments would be less than if you continue to work in jobs where you pay Social Security. Q. My husband wiil be 65 on August g, 1860. When should he apply for his Social Security? A. The Social Security office recommends that people file their applications approximately two months before retirement age. This gives the Social Se- curity office enough time to pro- cess the case and get the first cl4eck out at the earliest possible time.
