Alaska Senators Push
Army Purchases of
Fresh Local Milk
WASHINGTON, UP> — Alaska's
senators urged Friday that Con
gress override Army objections
and order that fresh grade-A milk
be served to troops stationed in
Alaska instead of the “reconsti
tuted” powdered milk they now
get.
Senator Ernest Gruening asked
' why fresh grade-A milk is served
at officers’ clubs in Alaska but
not to enlisted men if the Army
is right in arguing that the recon
stituted product is just as good.

Dior Wows Muscovites
MOSCOW, UPi — Moscow news
papers Saturday began giving at
tention to the Dior styles which
have been drawing packed houses
to showings in the Soviet capitol.
The labor paper Trud said the
crowd liked the French designer’s
relatively simple silk and wool
combination called Chicago and
added that it already had been
sold in 22 countries.
It said that fur styles — in
which the Soviets are specially
interested — were presented “in
good taste.”
Job’s Patience Snaps
PINEVILLE, Ky., 'JP — Job bore
up under boils and other assorted
plagues, but tree frogs were too
much. '
The tree frogs were providing
an unharmonious blend with the
great organ which plays nightly
for “The Book of Job,” a choral
adaptation of the Biblical story
presented in the amphitheater at
Pine Mountain State Park.
Robert Coleman of Memphis,
Tenn., who plays Job, armed
members of the cast with clubs
and flashlights for a war against
the frogs after a performance.
But not a frog was heard. When
the organ quit, so did they.
Somebody suggested a ' Bach
chorale and the organist obliged.
! So did the frogs. The cast followed
their ears — and swung their
clubs.
Job will still suffer nightly —
but not from tree frogs.

Being Developed
With River Craft
PRINCE RUPERT, B. C., UD —
Seagoing tugs, shallow-drought
tugs, river tows and ddep sea
tows are all coperating on a 107
mile trip that is opening for ex
ploration a huge underdeveloped
area rich in natural resources.
The boats are hauling about a
million board feet of logs on each
trip from formerly inaccessible
timberlands in the glacier-fed
Nass River area of northwestern
British Columbia to this Pacifc
port city. The lumber goes to the
sulphite pulp mill of the Columbia
Cellulose Co., Ltd., an affiliate
of Celanese Corp. of America.
The logs are converted into dis
solving wood pulp which is the ba
sic raw material for acetate and
rayon fibers, acetate plastics and
specialty grad«x papers.
Shallow drought tugs haul the
log-laden river tows 35 miles from
where the virgin timber is located
to the river’s mouth. There sea
going tugs and deep sea tows
take over.
The towing service is now on a
twice-a-day basis .The first vehicu
lar link between the Nass Valley
and inhabited areas of British
Columbia was a 70-mile all-weath
er road built by Columbia Cellu
lose to reach its timber holdings.
The company expecte develop
ment of the Nass River to provide
access to other natural resources.
Mining companies are prospect
ing for copper, asbestos and other
minerals. The river and nearby
streams are considered suitable
for hydro-electric power, the com
pany said.

Pegue’s apartment but thought he
was moving. -
“They didn’t really take every
thing,” he said, as he stretched
out on the couch. “They left three
pairs of shoes.”

LOOKY—MOM'S A MONGOOSE!
CUPERTINO, Calif., UP) — Mom,
an alley cat who turned up at the
Pattison home a couple of years
ago and stayed on, has become a
feline heroine..
She’s been bringing an occa
sional rabbit or gopher — dead,
of course—and placting it at the
feet of Shawn Pattison, 4.
Wednesday, Shawn heard a
rattle while playing in his drive
way. He ran to his mother, Claire
Pattison.
Mrs. Pattison looked where
Shawn pointed. There was Mom,
staring at a snake. For five min
utes, or so it seemed, Mom toyed
with the snake.
Then Mom lunged, grabbed the
snake behind the head, shook it
violently and chomped until it
ceased to wriggle.
Mrs. Pattison measured the rep
tile at 16 inches and said it had
three rattles.
Migrating Stassen . . .
PHILADELPHIA, UP) — Harold
Stassen, running for mayor of
Philadelphia .on the Republican
i ticket, made a campaign promise
yesterday aimed at easing this
city’s unemployment problem.
Some cities with high unem
ployment, he said, are footing the
transportation bill for their job
! less citizens who go to other cities
j in search -of work.
If elected, he said, he will send
| those coming to Philadelphia back
| where they came from.
When City Council President
James Tate, a Democrat, heard
about the campaign promise of
the former Governor of Minne
sota, he said:
“Stassen is a migratory worker
j himself.”
