Six Movements
It recognizes six major move
ments that carry their influence
into the second half of the iuin
century. They are:
1. The rise of world co-operation
to avoid war, insure peace.
2. The Russian revolution and
Its momentous results: "In 25
years Its policy of rule or ruin
has become the greatest threat
to free nations."
3. Rise of the United States
as a world power.
4. Destruction of Germany,
Austria-Hungary, sultanese Tur
key and the rise of nationalism.
5. Decline of British imperial
power.
6. Westernization of the far
ast.
The World Almanac, In Its sur
vey, lists 34 republics established
within 80 years, against eight
abolished; it finds 21 monarchies
abolished; six established. Not all
of the new states have survived;
some as still wobbly. Within
that time American troops have
been called upon to fight two
major world wars and engage in
13 other punitive actions and
occupations.
Principal business of the
World Almanac Is to Tecord the
results of human and natural
activities of 1849 in such suc

Radio Operators At Mullan Pass
CAA Station Undergo Rough Winter
Mullan, Ida., Feb. 2 (U.R) If
vou think the weather has been
kind of rough lately, shed a tear
for the CAA boys at Mullan
Pass.
The five radio operators at
tho communications station 13
miles east of here and 6,124 feet
up in the Rockies have long
since settled down to a snow
bound winter. Up to today, 99
Inches of snow had fallen.
In 1937 the civil aeronautics
administration established the
Mullan Pass station for the bene
fit of pilots flying across the
northern Rockies. Principal
duties of the operators Include
collecting weather data and
broadcasting it twice an hour
during the day to flyers.
Sits On Border
The station Is unique In that
it is located smack on the Idaho
Montana border. In fact, It's pos
sible for a couple of Ihc boys to
play a game of checkers with
one sitting in Montana and the
other in Idaho.
Getting up to the station from
about October to late May In
volves a good deal of physical
exertion. You drive from Mul
lan up a winding road for about
10 miles. Then you don skis or
snow shoes and trudge a zig-zag
course three miles tip to the sta
tion, which takes up to three
hours, depending on the shaoe
you're in. Coming down t'.ie
hill to the road takes about 10
minutes for a good skier.
Has High Spota
The trip Is not always with
out its high spots. Whenever a
new operator is assigned here he
Is usually told about Jimmy Dar
ton, or "Cougar Jim" as he's
known as now.

Mnnv vital domestic issues
held the attention of Americans
in 1949. Paul Hoffman's EC A,
President Truman's point four,
the battles In congress over the
air force, the Taft-Hartley Act,
compulsory health insurance and
the organization of the depart
ment of defense are the high
spots covered.
The World Almanac also of
fers information in changes in
the Social Security act, the Selec

ministration and housing; it sum
marizes the principal health
plans. It presents the essentials
of the White Paper on China, the
Atlantic defense treaty, the re
port of the Hoover commission
on reorganization of the execu

supreme court that affect the av

War History Told
Of historical Importance Is a
new section called "Highlights
of World War H," derived from
official sources, which sets at
rest Just how many planes and
men flew In Doolittle's raid on
Tokyo and what became of them,
how the famous nag-raising on
Ml. Suribaehl took dace, what
ships and men were needed for
the operations at Dunkirk, North
Africa, Normandy and else
where, and finally, that other
topic of endless debate, what
became of Hitler and Mussolini.
Things that affect the average
American vitally are health and

rifle he fortunately was carry
ing and plugged the critter be
tween the eyes.
Bunkhouse Moved
Up to Inst year the bunkhouse
was situated about 60 feet from
the station. That meant the boys
had to put on snowshoes and
take a shovel with them when
they were ready to go to bod.
They would shovel a path
through the snow to open the
door, slide into the house on
their stomachs, shovel out the
snow that cascaded In and slam
the door. The same procedure
was used to go to work In the
morning. Now, however, the
bunkhouse is adjoining the sta
tion and reached from the In
side. "It's really not so bad up
here," the boys say. "We man
age to catrh up on our reading."
MUCH TELEVISION
Providence, R. I.-.UJ.R) Too
much television and not enough

problem, according to President
Lucius A. Whipple of the Rhode
Island College of Education.
"Television snoozing." he calls it
when video-weary children fall

For Unemployment
Payments Made
Salem, Ore., Feb. 2 (U.R) A
new monthly record for unem
ployment clalma and payments
was made In January when
$4,273,653 was paid to Oregon's
unemployed, the state unem
ployment commission reported
today.
The previous high was $4,188,-
215 in March, 1949. The Janu
ary figure was 52 per cent above
the December figure and 54.8
per cent more than for January
of a year ago.
Load Rising
The local office claims load
has been rising steadily since
the year-end at the rate.of 6,000
a week, and officials expected
still higher payments in Febru
ary and March, unless there is
an immediate change in the icy
weather that has forced several
lumbering and other plants to
shut down.
An all-time high of 70.136
claimants reported during the
week ended January 27. This
compared with 65.760 for the
previous week, 45.875 for the
last week of December and 63,
278 a year ago. The previous
high of 69,323 was established
last February. But last Febru
ary nearly a third of the claim
ants were veterans seeking re
adjustment allowances. Current
ly only 1,292 were found eligible
under the GI bill of rights.

$4,189,653 went to those cov

' Groups interested in visiting

Andrews suggested that when
weather becomes better, air en
thusiasts from Medford might ar
range a flight to leave here in
the morning, spend the day at
the base and return in the eve
ning. He stated that he could ar
range clearance for landing on
the base. Andrews requested
that his suggestion be passed on
to interested groups.
ine officer stated that the
ninth and fifth strategic: recon
naissance wings are stationed at
his base and that Fairfield-Suisan
is the only air force base
having the RB-36. The reconnais
sance aircraft carry no bombs.
There are now five B-36s on the
base. The full complement will
be 60.
Andrews said that the two
wings will be able to recon
noiter anywhere in the world.
