Berlin in Though other if ws tions, bauk still of ruins.! German cities have made great progress in geluing back to normal, parts of Berlin still are like no man’s land. In the Rus- sian zone are piles of neatly stacked bricks and beside them neat piles of scrap iron, for the Russians have taken the ruins apart chiefly for the purpose of shipping the scrap iron back to Moscow. You pass long lines of gaunt walls and skeletonized buildings-—-some blasted by British incendiary bombs which knocked down the walls of the buildings. Take your pick; the Berliners didn’t like it either ‘ Over near Unter Der Linden, Hit- ler's dugout—a huge block of con- evete—is now turned upside down and near it what was once the Reichschancellery is now razed to the ground with almost every brick carted away by the Russians, Across their zone, in the American sector, the Reichstag is gutted bui still standing and the Tiergarten, where nurs pushed baby carri- ages and couples strolled arm-in- arm among its trees in 1936, now is without one tree standing—a waste as barren as the New Jer- sey swamps between Newark and the Hudson tunnels, Never has man wrought such destruction! 1951 is McCloy Has Difficult Job The biggest problem the United States and the world today is how to avoid the mistakes of koth 1923 and 1936—how to draw a line midway between crushing Germany as in 1923 and rebuildi the German military nd lust for power as in 1936. facing g their The man who has the diffi job of guiding Germany t delicate course is John J.

ANS EDUCATIONALIST BACK FROM VISITING SEVERAL SCHOOLS N. B. Holm, Alaska Na- tive Service education specialist returned this week from visiting 29 ANS schools in the Bethel, Bris- tol Bgy and Yukon River mouth areas. He also visited the commur ities of Togiak, Tuntulliag and Stu yok that he said needed schools, territorial schools at Dillingham, Marshall and Bethel and the mis- sion school at Holy Cro: HoHIm reports that the enroll- ment is high in most of the schools while condition of the schools good. A great deal of effort is put forth in the summer program on gardening projécts forthe cohmun- ities with ANS schools. The beaver and mink trapping season is good in the areas that Hoim covered during the 22 days he made the inspection. Martin y “If we are to bui 1d a firm foun- dation,” McCloy concluded, “We have to give these men gradual power. Some time or other, these men and the government they s is take the big test. We know that. We don't know whether the test will be Communism or Nazism, but we know that test is coming. Then we'll know how well we have built.” Tough Hurdles Ahead My own impression is that McCloy I done a better job than could be expected in encouraging democ- racy for the German people but he still has some extremely tough hurdles to overcome with German officialdom and industrialists McCloy has an American dent stationed in every country of the American zone ‘whose job it is to mingle with the German people, hold town meetings every two weeks, listen to their gripes, and encourage them to debate govern- ment problems, This is something the German people never énjoyed before and many of them are plea- sed but flabbergasted.

Would it be all right for a hostess to cancel an evening of bridg: if she finds out an hour or so beforehand that one of her guests cannof, | come? A. No, this would be inconsiderate of the other guests who have already made arrangements to attend. She should try her best to find a substitute, and if she fails in this, suggest a game of hearts, rummy, canasta, or some other entertainment. Q. When a dinner guest finds at dessert time that he already has eaten too much, should he apologize and refuse the dessert? A. Never. He would be exhibiting much better manners if he ac- cepted the dessert and at least make some effort to eat some of it. i Q. Who pays for the bride's bouquet, and for that of her maid-of-; honor and bridesmaids? A. The bridegroom pays for the bride’s bouquet, and her family stands the expense of the bouguets for her attendants. | o { ! i { | - LOOK and LEARN ggC.GURDON i What are Alaska’s four largest cities?
