ALL ABOUT BABIES
4 Public Service of fhe National Baby Care Council HOW TO PREVENT
 DIAPER RASH
By Kenneth S. Shepard, MD.

By Kenneth S. Shepard, MD. Pediatrician, St. Francis Hospital,
 Evanston, H.
 Responsible for the production of diaper rash are moisture, heat, trauma and chemical irritation.
 Moisture is present because of urine and stool and excessive ex- cretion of the sweat lgands.
 Heat is present because of the infants narmal body temperature plus, in many instances, the use of an impervious diaper covering such as rubber, plastic or treated silk.
 Trauma (injury to the skin) is the result of rubbing of the wet diaper, which is frequently pinned rather tightly.
 Chemical irritation is due in large part to ammounia produced by urea-splitting bacteria acting on the urine. In some instances, highly acid stools may be factor.
 In the prevention and the treat ment of diaper rash, an effort is made to eliminate or minimize the above offending factors.
 Moisture and heat are decreased by changing the diaper more ire quently and by excluding the use of the water-repellent diaper cov- ering.
 Trauma is reduced by pinning the diaper less tightly and by leav- ing the diapered area exposed to air for varying periods of time.
 Chemical irritation is decreased by washing the diapered area with soap and water with each diaper change. In the laundry, a bland soap should be used, and the dia- pers should be well rinsed or boiled. The use of a rinse such as borax is sometimes thought to be of value in neutralizing the ann monia produced by urea-splitting bacteria.

$500 A Week Jobs Reported In Alaska Brings lnquires From South 48

areas of the state and encourages readers to contact the Alaska em- ployment service and private em- ployers for jobs which are, in fact, non-existant.
 The promoter is no stranger to law enforcement authorities. Sev- eral years ago he was convicted of operating mail order geranium business with the flowers existing only in his imagination.
Kodiak mirror., 1961-03-17

Where are those elusive $500 a week jobs in Alaska?
 Twice as many residents of the South 48 have inquired about jobs in Alaska during February of this year than during the same month a year ago.
 During last month, the Alaska State Department Service an- swered 3,795 mail inquires concern ing employment, more than double the 1,594 for February of last year
 Labor Commissioner Gil Johnson pointed out that Alaska has always fascinated workers in other states to the tune of 1000 letters a month. However, mounting unemployment in sister states and the widespread advertising of a questionable Los Angeles promoter have quickened the pace of Alaskan job hunters.
 Among the more the 1,600 letters received Last month in Anchorage
 alone, hundreds mentioned they were writing after reading book let advertised on the radio on the false basis of the thousands of $500 week jobs available in Alaska.
 Letters have poured in from the western, southern and midwestern states requesting jobs. In addition, some job hunters are now arriv- ing in Alaska with their families while others have wasted precious budget money with long distance telephone calls to employers in 1aSka.
 Johnson said Better Business Bureaus, chambers of commerce and the public employment serv- ice network have all been advised of the activities of the promoter and of the fact that Alaska has more than enough resident work men for all jobs this season with the exception of some skilled and technical occupations.
 The booklet for the Alaskan jobs is advertised on radio with phrases that proclaim to listeners Where else but in Alaska can you make up to $500 a week-that's right, $500 a week-and still have time for the worlds best fishing and hunting."
 It drew response from a man in Ohio who write, q sent for the book and would Like to find job that I can be sure of for a long time" And, a worker in Texas wrote, "But if you would get me a job there, and see that I get loan till I get on my feet, I would pay you back every dime"
 Actually although the booklet is advertised as offering the key to the promised land of plenty, it ac- tlIally only crudely skins over the

Castro Prisoners
Ask Tractor Unit
To Retain Funds
By the Associated Press

Three prisoners of the Fidel
Castro regime, sent to the
United States to try to keep
alive Mr.. CaStro's bulldozers-
for-prisonerS plan, conferred
today with Cuban exile groups
in Washington.
One exile leader said they
want to see if the Tractors for
Freedom Committee, which has
declared itself out of business,
will at least keep the voluntary
collections it has received in
tact, to form the basis for an
expanded collection to aid the
prisoners"
The committee announced
Saturday it has taken steps to
return to donors unopened the
nearly 10000 letters it received.
The exile leader said the
three Cuban prisoners plan to
go to New York to see Mrs.
Eleanor Roosevelt, a leader of

mittee, to see what can be
done. The three are part Of a
group of 10 prisoners sent to

neutral or uncommitted states
should join actively in the fight.
Privately, high adminiStra-
ton officials have been strongly
urging uncommitted powers
such as India to stand up and
be counted in the fight against
communism in Laos and South
Wet Nam. The Americans have
been indignant that India has
not voted with Canada and
against Poland on the Inter-
national Control Commission to
censure the Soviet Union for
mounting its airlift from Hanoi
in North Wet Nam to Pathet
Lao rebels in Laos.
The United States strategy is
to establish the image of a
veto-less, two-bloc world, with
the Sino-Soviet group against
the rest.
The Kennedy administration
is thus moving farther away
from the one time Dulles
classification of moral allies"
and Immoral neutrals."
The new Kennedy approach
envisions offers of both eco
nomic and military assistance
to uncommitted states to per-
NIT them to develop independ-
emily as they pursue their "rev-
olutions of modernization."
American military aid in the
past has been given mainly to
nations with which the United
States has mutual security
arrangements. b
The new policy has an i'm
portant bearing on Pakistan
President Ayub Khan's formal
state visit beginning here to-
day. President Ayub has COM
planned publicly that the United
States treats its allies, like
Pakistan, worse than neutrals,
like India.
The new policy presumably
would permit American mill
tary aid to India, but United
States officials could be ex-
pected to be more generous if
India were to lead the uncom-
mitted world into an associa-
tion with the West against
Communist Subversion.

Rocket Fails
To HurI Midas
Spy Into Sky

POINT ARGUELLO, Calf,
July II (AP).-The sky spy
Midas III is intact but earth
bound today after an unSuc-
ceSsful attempt to hurI it into
orbit-one which would have
taken it over Russia.
An electronic brain sensed a

the scheduled launching and
automatically shut down the

The failure was the third in
the Midas program. Midas I,

damaged, remained upright on
