GIANT MAN TELLS
HOW TO EAT
Chicago—
Want to learn quickly and easily
how to live a longer and happier life
through right eating?

and Industry on Chicago’s south

The “Food for Life" exhibit,
donated to the Museum as a public
service by Swift & Company, con

findings of nutrition research.
A feature of the exhibit is a live
farm animal nursery where proper
nutrition, as practiced in producing
livestock, is illustrated. Baby pigs,
lambs, chicks, and ducks are on dis
play and there is a glass enclosed
incubator where visitors can see
chicks hatching.
Big Military Construction
Bill Wins Congressional
O.K.; Goes to President
WASHINGTON (*)—1The Senate
Monday completed congressional
approval of a big bill to authorize
a $2,310,530,300 military construc
tion program at U.S. bases around
the world.
The omnibus measure, a com
promise of varying House and
Senate versions passed earlier,
now goes to the White House for
presidential action.
Air Force projects, many of
them secret, dominate the bill.
The measure would authorize
the hundreds of projects. Money
to carry them out would have to
be approved in a later appropria
tions bill.

Anchorage Union Barbers
Drop Price of Haircuts
To $1 From $2.50
ANCHORAGE — The cost of
getting clipped in Anchorage took
a nosedive last Saturday when
the price of haircuts at union
barbershops was cut to $1 from
$2.50. Non-union shops were
charging $1.50.
The action was taken by the
barber’s union following a meet
ing attended by 22 Anchorage
barbers.
At the meeting the displeasure
of the group toward the non
union “cut rate” tactics was made
known. It was decided to reduce
rates for haircuts even below
that of the non-union shops in
retaliation.

House Committee Asks
Army to Open Whittier
Port for Civilian Use
WASHINGTON, {&—'The House
Appropriations Committee Tues
day asked the Army to open the
port of Whittier, Alaska, to civil
ian use by Jan. 1.
If kuch action is not feasible,
the committee said in a report on
military construction appropria
tions, the Army shall “provide
just reason and cause why it
should not be done.”
The committee said its atten
tion had been drawn to the “Ar
my’s continuing policy of refusing
to open the port ... to civilian
use” and said it had been advised
“additional tonnage could be han
dled at this port and at a lesser
cost through the use of civilian
labor.”
Shape Of Things To Come
On Tomorrow’s Highways
ANN ARBOR, Mich., (A*) — J.
Paul Buckley, chief engineer for
the Automotive Safety Founda
tion’s Highway Division, says
these are among the things motor
ists can expect for the future:
Separate highway lanes for
specific speeds, helicopter remov
al of disabled cars, bridges across
huge lakes, lighted highways el
iminating headlights, pavements
that melt snow and sleet, and
non-stop cross-country through
ways.
Buckley spoke yesterday at a
University of Michigan trans
portation conference.
On an average of every 3Vz
minutes, fighting planes of the
U.S. military services were re
fueled in the air during 954. The
development of aerial refueling
provides greater range for our
combat planes and greater protec
tion for America’s freedom.
