Children Are Getting Long Treat

away from the independent
and earefree American child.
but trey are pushing through
as hard as they can.
Normal Life
Normal life is quite hard
for the French child. The
little boy Tor girD goes to
school at S; q real school
with real work. where he has
to sit quietly and answer
questions. not asking them
all the time. He has a stiff
program and a lot Of home
work from the beginning. He
wears what he IS told-eats
what he is given and has no
choice. His pals are all boys
with a few exceptions Of
mixed schools. The other
sex keeps its mystery far into
the teen-age and going
steady is "out" up to IS.
Slowly, very slowly, the
American influence is trick
ling through the parental
supervision and cannot be
stopped, especially since COM
merce is well aware Of the
trend and is taking advan-
tage Of 1t.
Child's World
No wonder every single
child in Paris wants to go to
the Children's Fair with its
fascination and the Ameri-
can children's world right at
hand. Here are some Of the
big attractions, the Western
Train, the "Showboat Spec
tacle", the "Bing-Ball" Mas
sacre, the Home Trainer
for bikes, the world cham
pionship for roller skating,
the nautical saucer, the
"Gringo Circus" the Mickey
theater," the rocket flight
and many others.
A big deal is the Jazz ANA
teur contest with wonderful
prizes and the possibility Of
becoming an Idol. The
girls prefer "Trashcan-Go
where the clubs are brooms
and the holes trash cans. The
boys battle for the"jet flight"
with built-in television giving
the impression of q true flight
over Germany. Austria and
Switzerland with interphone
and technical questions asked.
Wonderful things can be
won at different contests. A
trip to Africa with q French
Airline, real flights on gliders
or Army planes. visits to air.
craft or truck plants and
many gifts from clothing to
toys and sweets. All those
treats are organized by COM
mercial firms and generally
for free.

At this trick or treat" time
Of year I bring you my Trick
and Treat Diet. This is a
seven-day diet which gives
you q loss Of about five
pounds. 1t plays tricks on
the extra pounds while it
gives you food you will en-
JOY.
Perhaps you have been
procrastinating about losing
a few pounds which make a
big difference in your fig
ure. The short term reducing
diet is the answer to this
problem. 1t is much easier to
attack the situation vigor-
ously for a few days than it
is to play around with the
idea, and the Galleries, for
weeks or months. Also
remember that those five
pounds are almost sure to
multiply faster than COM
pound interest unless you do
something about them now.
The short reducing diet
also has great psychological
value as the kickoff for a
longer reducing trek. Studies
have shown that the woman
who is successful in losing
weight during the first few
weeks of dieting Is likely to
stick with calorie counting
until she has lost the pounds
she needs to shed.
OF course this Is. to a GER
tain degree, a reflection of
her own attitude, whether or
not she is really serious about
reducing. However. many
women become discouraged
If they do not see results
fairly soon when dieting.
They are apt to give the
whole idea up for the time
being, and maybe forever.
Today I am giving you the
menus for tomorrow, the
kickoff day for you II you
have only five pounds to
lose or If you want an en-
couraging start on q longer
reducing effort. You are al
most sure to have the items
prescribed for breakfast on
hand.
Another nice thing about
the Trick and Treat Diet is
that you will enjoy it any
you do not have to plan two
sets Of menus. You can make
a few slight changes and use
the diet for your family,
I will tell you more about
that tomorrow.
Here are the Menus for
Monday:
BREAKFAST
Six ounces orange Juice.
One-half cup oatmeal.
Four ounces skim milk and
two teaspoons sugar on
oatmeal.
One slice of protein bread
toast.
Black coffee.
LUNCHEON

 pr. Rogers pointed out when you look at general facts of Alaska they appear to be good, that the popula- tion is growing by leaps and bounds and the per capita income is high.
 But he said when you dig deeper, below the surface, you find an en- tirely different story"
 We find this dynamic growth has taken place primarily in two cen- ters, Fairbanks and Anchorage.'
 "The rather high level of income and economic activity has been concentrated in those two areas. When we look at the rest of Alaska, the people outside those two areas, we find they are just holding their own, or doing a little better, or going downhill."
 Rogers then disagreed with a

Rogers Says Alaska Needs Development, Not More People

Alaska's native population is mushrooming and Alaska, instead of needing more people, needs de- Velopment to raise the standard of living of the people who live in the large state,
 This, in essence, was an opinion stressed by pr. George w. Rogers, Research Professor of Economics, at the University of Alaska.
 Dr. Rogers gave the opinion at a panel entitled Facts for Develop ment' at the recent 3-day economic conference in Fairbanks.
 The research professor said his life was dedicated to gathering eco- homie and social facts about Alaska.
 Beacuse of health programs, he said the birth rate was soaring over the death rate in the Alaska native population.
 People born into this world are being kept alive and this is good but this also poses tremendous problem right now and for the fu- ture particularly he said.
 Whether we want it or not the people are here and are coming in increasing numbers"

 Father Jules Convert S.J.. of Kaltag, the person most responsible for sparkling the conference, stressed that the church through its mis- sionaries were anxious to assist by providing factual. meaningfuI infor- nation for development and by act ing as mediaries between go.ern- ment agencies and villages.
 Some individuals at the confer- ence suggested if a pilot program of development in the Tanana-Yu- kon drainage area is successful committee, that this plan may set the pattern for development in other areas of the state.
 Four members were named to the coordinating committee: The Right Rev. William J. Gordon, Bishop of Alaska, Episcopal Church, rep- resenting the Churches Socio-Eco- homie Advisory Committee; Dr. George Rogers, representing the University of Alaska; Hubert J. Gellert. representing the state gov" ernment; and Ross L. Miller. of the BIA, Juneau, representing the fed- eral government.
 The committee plans to consult on appropriate occasions representa-. tives of organized labor, native or.
 ganizations, and other, interested ? groups.
 According to a recommendation adopted by the group, the commits , fee will concern itself with keeping abreast of local needs, problems, and goals with the view of assist ing the development, of local initia- l tive and meaningful communication between communities and the CO., ordinating committee.
 The committee Will ueSlgIlate TIT each community the person through which it will work and at particular times will designate communities for concentration of effort.

fryer Says Development Starts With Understanding People

E. It. Fryer, assistant commits sloner of the Bureau of Indian Af. falrs for economic development stressed here last week village de- Veolpment must begin with the un. derstanding of people.
 "1t is necessary to probe deeply the totality of a community anc deal with what the people have and where the people are," Frye, said.
 One must know the structure of leadership, the characteristics of the people and their hopes and as- pirations."
 Not only the physical resources but also the human resources must be inventoried. he said, and the two must be related to bring something to reality.
 Fryer was speaker on many oc- casionS during the three day con- ference, Process and Projects" sponsored jointly by the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Churches Socio-Economic Advisory Commit tee of the Panama Yukon River drainage area.
 Knowledge of marketing, capital requirements, and problems of management he stressed as neces- sary in development, pointing out that management problems had been talking with people who have countered in developments in the lower states.
 He went on to criticize the Bur- eau of Indian Affairs as being "coW-plow minded"
 For a hundred years we have been talking iwth people who have had great land resources, g mil lion acres in the case of the Navajo. for example"
 He said the bureau had tried to make the Navajo grazing men or if that were not possible. to find ways of irrigating the pastures so they could become farmers.
 "There's nothing in the history of the Navajo to suggest that they have any particular interest in the blow: nevertheless, We have been dedicated all these years to the blow"

CONFERENCE FORMS DEVELOPMENT PLAN
Church, sfate, Federal Agencies To Coordinate Their Activities
 In Tanana-YUkon Pilof Proqram

The immense problems involved in economic development in the vil- lages of Alaska were faced squarely in a three-day conference in Fair banks, February 1920.
 And some of the brightest minds in the state grappled with the many complexities of development and the processes by which it can be achieved.
 The conference concluded with the adoption of a coordinated plan of action to bring all forces, both governmental and private. to bear on the total problem in the Panama Yukon River basins.
 Cooperation, communication, and coordination were emphasized throughout the Conference by top state, federal government, and church leaders.
 Significantly, there was unani- nous agreement that initiation of action should be on the "grass roots' or village level, that develop
