Stomach Surgery
 Performed on Mailman Who Swallowed Spoon

MIAMI, Fla. R -- Stomach sur gerry was performed Saturday on a rnadman who swallowed a spoon handle while awaiting transfer to New York where he is accused in the slaughter of his brother in-law's family.
 Mat Ivanof, 37, a Yugoslav im- migrant, underwent the operation at Jackson Memorial Hospital where he was moved after swal- lowing the 311 inch spoon handle in his cell at Dade County jail.
 Ivanov, lodged in the jail as federal prisoner, was served a meal Friday, along with other pri- soners and was given spoon. Jail attendants in corridor re- ported hearing later a scraping noise as if something was being sharpened and when they enter ed Ivanov's cell, they found he had broken off the spoon handle and swallowed it.
 After attempts to remove the spoon handle failed, Ivanov un- derwent stomach surgery, police said.
 The FBI identified Ivanov as the man wanted in Mineola, NY. for the Nov. 25, bayonet massacre of five persons.
 Ivanov was picked up by I'm migration authorities Dec. 5 on charges of illegal entry into the United States. He was found pos ing as Cuban refugee in row. boat near Marathon in the Fioridf Keys.

MUSIIN'
 THROUGH WASHINGTON
By Fritz Witt

Associated Press Special Service
 WASHINGTON LR -- Alaska's three-man congressional delega- tion is making a determined effort to ease size and weight limitations on parcel post shipments in the 49th State.
 Their argument boils down to the fact that although Statehood brought many changes, it has not had any effect on the basic ship ping and transportation problems of the former territory. Alaska is a transportation-poor state, they say, and it's residents are highly dependent on parcel post shipments.
 With statehood, the parcl post size and weight limitations in the other states became applicable to Alaska. The result was that the package limits of 100 inches in length and girth and 70 pounds. allowed for the territory, fell to I72 inches and 20 pounds. Sens. E. l.. Bartlett, and Err nest Gruening and Rep. Ralph Rivers, formed united front in giving arguments for a Post Of flee Department conference today
 on proposed revision in parcel post regulations.
 The Department favors re- turn to the 100-inch, 70-pound re- gulations for Alaska and the dele gation endorsed the proposal in statements prepared for the con- | ference.
 The three are also sponsors o1
 bills now before congressiona
 committees which would put thu
 size and weight limitations bacl i to where they were before State hood.
 People in Alaska" said Bart
 lett, "still depend to a great ex | tent upon mail-order purchase flor various domestic supple 1 and for numerious items such a 1 replacement parts needed Tor tn
 conduct of their businesses. There
 fore, they have been and the.
 continue to be enthusiastic pa
 irons of the parcel post service" Gruening said Alaskans "ar, entirely dependent on imports ol almost all commodities they use,' and that the tighter limits on par
 eel post have become "an onerous hardship"
 Rivers noted that the proposal
 has been endorsed by the Cover. nor, Chambers of Commerce. sev- eral organizations and many in dividuals while he has received nc communications in opposition. Fur Processing Plant The three Alaskans are also pushing the establishment of a plant to process Pribilof Island seal skins in Alaska.
 Their recommendations were made to Stewart Udall, Secretary of the Interior, after he announced the department was dropping it's contract for the work with Fo1lke Fur Co, St. Louis, Mo, at the end of next year.
 All three urged that a plant lo- cated in Alaska, near the seal grounds, would be more econo- mical and efficient and would pro- vide needed employment in the state.
 Udall told Bartlett careful con- sideration would be given to the recommendation and a detailed sfI1f3v nnadn nf 4I,o yr, after

Motherhood is the launching Of
an immortal soul on the sea OF
Life"
We of Zion have been having
some splendid evangelistic mes
sages presented to us by Rev.
Charles Ward, pastor of First
Baptist church, Raleigh, N. G..
Food for thought derived were:
Every man has a responsibility to
the little spark of divinity that is
in everyone of us. He suggested
that we look up at the face of the
Lord rather than at the lower
things.
The speaker warned that there
is danger in making too many ex-
cuses for not doing our christian
duty. In conclusion Rev. Ward
said that only God is able to take
us and make us and we should go
out into the world quickly to win
souls for Jesus. Lord send us a
revival and let it begin with me"
