ALONG NATURE'S TRAIL
by KEN McLEOD
In our last column I started to
give Joaquin Miller's first account
of the Battle 01 uasue irags as
written In his book, "Unwritten
History." or "Life Amongst the
Modocs." published In London in
1814, U years after the battle took
place. Joaquin pictures nimseu,
lad ol 16, the hero of the fray,
and as a result has left out a lot
of. detail. However, the essential
elements of the battle are present
in the narrative even though he
tails to mention Gibson. We left
the party just as Uiey reached Cas
tle Lake, "a sweet and peaceful
place.;'
"This is a spot" writes Joaquin,
"the Indians will not visit, for fear
ot the evil spirits which they are
certain inhabit the place. They sat
flown in the wood overlooking tue
lake, while we descended, drank of
. tne cool, deep water and re
1 freshed ourselves for the combat,
since the spies bad Just returned
and reported the hostile camp only
an hour distant. This waa on the
28th day ol June, 1855. The enemy
wait not dreaming of our approach,
and we were in position, almost
surrounding the camp, before we
were discovered.
"Mountain Joe had distributed us
behind the rocks and trees in range
of and overlooking the camp. Tne
ground was all densely timbered,
and covered with a thick growth
of black stilt chaparral, save one
pot of few acres, by uie side ol
which the Indians were camped, at
tne toot of a nttie mn.
"This was my first war-path. I
was aDout to take part In my
lirst real battle. I had been placed
by Mountain Joe behind a large
pine, and alone. He spoke kindly as
he left me, and bade me take care
of mysell.
"I put some bullets in my mouth,
primed my pistols, and made all
reparation to do my part. It
seemed like an age before the fight
' began. I could hear my heart beat
like a little drum. .
"The Indians certainly had not
the, least suspicion of danger. They
were it seemed, as much off their
guard as possible. They evident
ly thought their camp, If not im
pregnable, beyond our reach and
discovery. They owed the latter to
their own race.
"At last we were discovered, as
aome of the most daring and ex
perienced were stealing closer to
the camp, and they sprang to their
arms with wnoops and yells that
lilted my oat almost from, my
head.
"The yells were answered. Ri
THE DOCTOR SAYS

One of the most puzzling prob
lems for a great many people is
brought up in todny's first in

A Two things I tl.jik have hap
pened to make the problem raised

medicine have made It exceeding

specialism. Ordinarily, the firm
physician for a person like Mrs. H.

NEW YORK OB Many people
complain about what television
has done to Amerloan home life.
But what can television do for
home life? Can It, for example,
give every American home what
it deserves most the better house
wife?
Yes, can television take an ordi
nary scrubby bride and mold her
Into the kind or wife she yearns
to be a charming, Informed, all
around woman worthy of travel
ing down life's rocky road shoulder
to shoulder with that fine fellow,
the average American husband?
Well, television Is going to try.
It is already a guest in your liv
ing room. Soon it will be a guest
who tells your wife how to make
that living room look less crumby,
and how she herself can also look
less cru. . . I mean. . . look more
attractive.
This video adventure in wife ed
ucation will be launched March 1
via an NBC-TV daily one-hour net
work program called "Home."
The Idea is reported to be the
personal brainchild of NBC Pres
ident Sylvester L. Weaver himself,
and he has authorized erection of
a 8200,000 set for "Home " .
The mere announcement of this
program upset a friend of mine,
who said he had two objections:
"First, I nave spent no earnest
years trying to Improve my wife.
and the only result is that she is
olaer. How can television do a
better Job on her in an hour a
day? The program should be at
least eight hours long, seven days
a week, if it is to teach wives
even half the .things they really
need to know.'
"Second, every wife who
watches that (200,000 set is going
to feel sooner or later her hus
band ought to buy her a 8200,000
house. Will that simple girlish goal
help make your home life more

NEW YORK Iff) Until Congress

business plans likely will be kept
In mothballs. And some consumers
may be waiting, too, to sec if
Congress is going to make a lot of
goods cheaper to buy.
Tax stories out of Washington
today indicate that a long wrangle
on tne lioors of the two chambers
over tax aid to Industry may be
building up to keep business on the
anxious scat.
The bolstering which tax changes
are supposed to offer manufactur

Beautious Arlene Francis will
act as editor-in-chief of the pro
gram. Assisted by a staff, of ex
perts, she will give illustrated
hints to the American housewife
on how to raise children or pe
tunias, how to take spots oft the
family dog or her husband's neck
tie. how to cook better meals, both
with and without a can opener.
And, naturally, how to be more
charming.
Even a crime program today
has to teach a housewife how to

Personally, we wish Miss Fran
cis luck In TV's greatest chal
lenge so far the building of per
fect wives, of which every man
could use at least one.
And for a starter, we'd like to
see her tackle and solve a few
typical old household problems,
such as:
The wife who insists on getting
something out of the medicine
chest while her husband is shav
ing, and uses his razor to cut pa
per. . . The wife who won't roll
the toothpaste tube from the bot
tom. . The wife who can't make
up her mind on colors while hub

Tne two-oatnroom lamny in the

neighbor wife who punishes her
children If they are destructive In
her own home but not if they turn
your house into a city dump.- ..
The wife who leaves her bobby
pins all around the wash basin
and yowls when hubby .splashes
water and gets them rusty.
The wife who . . . (till out your
own list, boys, and" mall them to
Miss Francis. She'll help you.) ,
Ot course, some husbands create
household problems, too., But even
television hasn't figured a way yet
to Improve the American hus
band. The final decision will affect
how much earnings business has
left over for dividends for ex
pansion, to keep research pro
grams going. And business will
know by how much any drop in
sales totals this year will be oft-
set by tax savings, and how much
new borrowing it may need.
Guard Division
Leaves Korea
SEOUL I The U. S. 48th Divi
sion, an Oklahoma National Guard
outfit, staged a huge farewell pa
rade today for soldiers returning
to the United States. -
The 45th is the first American
division to leave Korea permanent
ly since the start of the war. But
only about 1,000 men normally
scheduled for rotation will carry
the division flag and colors back
to Oklahoma for rest will be as
signed to other American units
here.
The 45th Is the first of two divi
sions President Eisenhower an
nounced last month would be with-
drawn from Korea. The 40th, a
California National Ouard division,
will return late this spring.

Hydrogen
Bomb Tests
Said Near
HONOLULU Iffl Preparations
for the coming hydrogen bomb test
series in the Pacific are nearing
a climax, according to indications
in this strategic Pacific staging
area.
But there is no indication any
of the planned scries of tests has
actually started.
A recent rash of Pacific area
earthquakes has prompted specula-
tlon that an H-bomb already has
been exploded but seismologists
flatly deny the possibility ot any
such connection. They say the big
gest bomb yet devised by man is
still a peanut compared to the
eruptions of nature.
The tests, which will include the
first trial of an actual combat-
designed hydrogen bomb, are ex
pected In two or three weeks.
Alvln Graves, director of the 1954
testa at the Marshall Islands Atom
ic Proving Grounds, passed
through Honolulu two weeks ago
and Is presumably in the test area
now. He did not answer his hotel
phone during his stopover here.
MaJ. Gen. Percy W. Clarkson,
commanding officer of Atomic
Task Force Seven, left Honolulu
a month ago, presumably for the
Marshall Islands, and returned last
week. Two days later he left again,
in the same direction. An Army
spokesman reported his arrivals
and departures without further
comment. .
An Informant at Holmes and
Narver, an engineering and con
tracting firm which supplies men
and materiel for the atomic tests,
said Uie movement of construction
personnel to the test area is about
over. He said It was expedited in
the last three weeks.
The Atomic Energy Commission
notified airlines in advance of the
1052 tests to stay clear of the area.
Because of news leaks at that time
they have now been told there will
be no such advance warning this
time.
One alrpline spokesman said that
in case of any danger they would
be notified on"an emergency basis.
The Weather Bureau provides a
hint- that the tests are still two or
three weeks off at best. Prevailing
winds through February blow west
to east across the Pacific and
could carry dangerous atomic dust
clouds to Hawaii and the United
States.
Official comment' cn the ap
proaching tests Is nonexistent. Mil
itary and civilian spokesmen de
cline comment on anything to do
with the top-secret subject. They
look hurt If you even mention the
word.

Farm Program
Defended
WASHINGTON Iff) Undersecre
tary of Agriculture True D. Morse
said today the administration's
proposed new farm program was
designed to help all the people
not farmers alone.
"Agriculture must be dealt with
as a total Industry taking in all
those who produce, process, store,
finance, sell and otherwise work
with farmers and farm products,"
he said. .
'The narrow view," lie added,
"is to consider only the 16 per
cent of the population now living
on farms. Such a limited approach
will restrict agricultural progress
. . Tne administration's pro
gram will Increase the well-being
and prosperity or all the people.
That is why President Elsenhower
has given It such close study."
Morse made these remarks In a
speech prepared for a meeting of
the Corn Belt Livestock Feeders
Assn.
The administration program
would place less dependence on
price supports and production con
trols tnan do present farm pro
grams.
Morse said the present program
of high rigid price supports and
controls Is one of "scarcity" that
would do damage to the total
economy , by reducing employment
in tne marketing, transportation,
and processing of farm products.
Criticizing high supports for corn
and other livestock feed grains,
Morse said livestock producers and
feeders are entitled to have "flex
ibility in the costs ot their feed"
to go along with flexibility in the
prices they receive for cattle, hogs,
poultry and dairy products.
He said present scarcity of
pork and pork products and ac
companying high prices can be
blamed on price supports which
encourage farmers to store corn
under government price supports
rawer man feed It to hogs.

She is all set to go Into one of

The reason for his apprenticeship
Is that the Watcrfields have formed
their own production company,

Anxious Jane is hunting for an
other picture to do before she

be "The Long Wire " with John

Gilbert Roland, Jane's co-star in

of his own. He is anxious to begin

the story of his bullfighting father.
He already has a script from Niv
