Making a mint of money and giving a billion dollars to philanthropic cause s as the Rockefeller family has done is a fine method, too. But it is un likely that anybody will ever make a billion dollars any more. So neither by the warrior's trade nor the businessman's lar gesse is it likely that you will make a great impact on your fellowman during the rest of this century. The big fields of the fu ture are politics, science, litera ture, religion and motherhood. And here are ten ways to make a name for yourself that will ring in the mind of mankind for a long, long time: 1. Unify the world under a sin gle government by peaceful means not by conquest. 2. Solve the national debt. Even Einstein hasn't done that. 3. Invent a robot that when you put a quarter in the. slot will figure out your income tax and give you back fifteen cents in change. 4.

I was going to suggest the inven tion of a cream that would make everyone really beautiful not only in his own but in all eyes. "That would be dreadful," ob jected my wife, Frances. "Ev erybody would be bored to death it they couldn t see .and BDore- ciate the faults in each other." She said there should be a place on the list for mothers. A mother who figured out a formula for raising a son to be a perfect husband for any woman ought to go down in history," she said, j "But if all wives had perfect husbands) wouldn't they be bored to death?" I asked. "Not in the next 40 years," said Frances. j mm : mi SI?! COMFORT CONVENIENCE ECONOMY OLYMPIC IH0TEL ENtM TMN rmai Clatsop County's Unemployed Sets Ail-Time Record ASTORIA, Jan. 10 WP) A rec ord number of men worse even than the depression days of the 1930s are out of work in Clatsop county, the state employment of fice reported. Guy Barker, manager of the office, said about 3,273 peoplei chiefly men, are jobless. All bui 1,000 of them have asked for un employment benefits. Barker said this county had t higher unemployment rate in 1949 man any otner county in uregon, chiefly because there was no heavy agriculture or other indus try to absorb the men laid off in logging and fishing. tjity Manager Brewer Blllie said he thought the problem was seasonal, rather than a long-ran trend. "Fishing, canneries, and logging normally are 'off at this time of year," Billie said. "The picture always looks worst dur ing the early winter." Bank deposits generally con sidered a trend of economic condi tions have been steadily rising here for six months. Building per mits in 1949 were the third high est on record. Some city officials said they thought the record unemploy ment was due to increased popu lation here, and to the fact that the depression never hit Astoria as hard as other areas. The Clatsop County Welfare commission appealed to the state welfare office to help obtain a public works program to am tne unemployed here. The county commission also appealed for $7, 400 more in county funds to meet relief needs. Barker said the employment service turned up only 38 Jobs despite an intensive campaign to hunt work. We are meeting a blank wall," he declared. A hope of more work was in sight for April. About -300 men will be needed then by a Port land firm which is planning to build 150 houses here. An average flock of young hens will produce 180 eggs per bird per year. The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service says moose are increas ing in this country. Coastal Dairy Problem Eyed ASTORIA, UP) Are coastal cows getting 4 or 10 parts of copper per million parts of grass, nay ana silage? The answer "a pretty hair splitting job" may be important to dairy nerds, tne teaeral gov ernment thinks. There has been a theory that heavy coastal rains wash neces sary metallic salts from the soil with the result that cattle don t get it from the crops. Herbert Newell, director of the Astor experiment station, said tnat Dr. Kennetn Beeson, direc tor of the Department of Aeri- culture's plant and nutrition lab oratory at Ithaca, N.

Chiang Kai-Shek headed for Formosa to rejoin her hus band pledges that the Chinese Nationalists will battle to the last bullet and last propaganda blast against the Communists. There will be guerrilla war fare and propaganda against the Reds, and eventually an upris ing of the people on the main land, the Nationalist 1 e a d e r's wife said in a radio speech. She said "for shame" to Bri tain and called Its recognition of the Chinese Communist regime the act of a "moral weakling." She said "Britain has bartered the soul of a nation for a few pieces of silver" (the price paid to Judas who betrayed Christ.) "One day," Mme Chiang pre dicted, "these pieces of silver will bear interest in -British blood sweat and tears on the battle ground of freedom." She declared "Russia will never know one day of peace in China. Russia will never own China. China will remain free." U.S. Kindness Noted Mme. Chiang said the Nation a 1 i s t s are "abandoned and alone." But she had some kind words for the United States, which is not responding to Nat ionalist appeals for aid in hold ing Formosa but is not recog nizing the Chinese Red regime. "Yours has been a contribu tion of affection," she told Amer icans, "x x x your name among us will always be cherished for its friendship and kindliness." Mme. Chiang, who ha-s failed almost completely in the aid seeking mission that brought her to mis country u months ago, said "I can ask the American people for nothing more. At such a time no pleading can be with dignity." "It is either in your hearts to love us, or your hearts have been turned from us," she said. "It is either in your mind and your will to aid China in her struggle for liberty, or you have abandoned liberty." She said Nationalists Gorillas "will keep the torch of ll'jrty" everywhere on the Chinese main. land now mostly in the hands of the Reds while her husband wages a last-ditch fight from ormosa. I'The enemy's lies and deceit, their treachery and propaganda, will be defeated not onlv with bullets but also with truth," she pledged. "The oppressed people on the mainland," she said, "will be prepared so that at a given sig nal tney win rise up simuitan- COLOMBO, Ceylon, Jan. 10. (P) Prime Minister Nehru of India told the British common wealth conference Monday the Dest way to defeat communism in Asia is to build up the pros perity of Asiatic peoples.

The confer ence is dedicated to exploring means of averting a third world war and stopping the spread ot Communism.
