BuSWeu SAYS HOME FIRE DANGER INCREASED DURING WINTER MONTHS

Now, during National Fire Prevention Week, Oct. 7-13. is an appropriate time to consider the fire dangers in your home" l" according to Dean Arthur s Buswell, Division of Statewide Services and Director of the Cooperative Extension Service of the University of Alaska.
 Dr. Buswell pointed out that the winter months are the most dangerous time of year for home fires. Statistics show twice as many deaths from home fires in December and January than during other months.
 "The real tragic fact is that four out of five victims of home fires are children less than 15 years old. This often occurs be- cause youngsters don't know

 Don't go along thinking, "It can't happen to me" It hap pened to 11,700 Americans last year. Nearly half of them were under four years old. An escape plan could have saved many of those lives.
 For a detailed plan of fire prevention, contact your local Extension Service Agent, Dr. Buswell suggested. The agent will be glad to help you work out details for your situation.
 The Extension Service has the following bulletins avail able relating to fire prevention: Making Household Fabrics Flame Resistant, L454; Fire De- partments for Rural Commun- ities-How to Organize and Operate them, L375; Safe Use and Storage of Flammable Li- quids and Gases on the Farm, FEB 2156; Safeguard Your Farm Against Fire, FEB 2150; Fire Re- sistant Construction on the Farm, FB 2070; and Watch Your Step!

United Nations General Assem-

assessments obligatory and es-
tablish a penalty for failure to
pay up.
Mr.. Stevenson said that in
spite Of Soviet opposition on
this issue the Assembly would
give "a very large and resound-
ing vote" in favor of enforcing
collection of the U. N. assess
menLs in this way.
Mr.. Stevenson and Mr.. Rusk

vance Of tomorrow's opening
Of the General Assembly ses-
sion in New York. The two
men agreed that Of about 100
items on the u. N. agenda this
year, three are Of paramount
importance-disarmament, fl
nancing, and the situation in
the Congo.
The United Nations is In bad
financial state because of the
failure Of many Of the member
nations to pay their regular
dues on time and the reluc-
tance or refusal Of some to
meet special assessments voted
to finance u. N. policing opera
