JSwarl Prewar figures br For example, more than 54,000 natives already have attended schools on four major Pacific is lands Guam, Saipan, Tinlan and Okinawa. Large numbers . also have been enrolled on various Other, less important islands. , trAt Guam, a recaptured Ameri can possession, attendance dwarfs prewar figures by 1000 students. Guam had a school system long .before. the war. -The willingness of islanders to learn is indicated by this incident. Qne group of Ponape natives volunteered vol-unteered to go to Eniwetok as construction workers for an air- ! strip only after they were assur- -ed that a school would be set up in which they could learn English several nights a week. Use Native Instructors c -Despite major difficulties cre ated by variances in language be tween the various islands, Amer ican authorities have made great strides, according to the navy, by teaching largely with trained, na tive instructors. Greatest progress has been shown in the Marshalls, which contains Bikini atoll, scene of projected atom bomb tests, and which of the most 'spectacular battle during the war contributed -some datelines Eniwetok,. Kwa- palein and Majuro. Because the Marshalls were the first islands occupied, first schools in the Pacific were established es-tablished there. Before the end of 1945, more than 20 elementary schools were set up, as well as an instructors school which was moved from Roi to Majur atoll. Each Side Has Dialect Plans have been made to sup plement the output of teachers from the Majuro school, which has enrollment of more than 60, with another teachers school on Guam. To cope with varying dialects, it has been necessary to prepare different textbooks for the people of each island. The curricula of the Marshall islands include grade school courses in English, spelling .geography and hygiene. High schools on Guam teach sub jects which compare favorably with similar U. S. institutions, according to the navy. In addition to these courses, American military government educators are also developing courses in their hospitals for training native nurses and hospital hos-pital corpsmen. 1946 Brings Out New Kind of 'Suffragette' : 1 7 r V 1j r i" ) J-l "Suffragettes" are campaigning for the vote again, and they're getting a lot more polite welcome than did those who out over the "votes-for-women" amendment to the Constitution in 1919.

Fraser MacAIlister reports he had built the proverbial '''better mouse trap." The inventor today awaited outcome of the acid test for the new rat catcher, trade-named "Wyzo Rat Glue." Accompanied by the city sanitation sani-tation inspector, MacA 1 1 i s t e r spread samples of his rodent wrecker through known rat runs. He says the glue acts on rats much the same as flypaper affected af-fected insects. When an errant rodent steps into the concoction, it's held helpless. The more it struggles, the worse its condition becomes according to MacAll-ls,ter. "Either the governments of the world want peace and do not need the regiments and hardware of war." he said. "Or we must conclude con-clude that tbey want huge armaments arma-ments because they expect to use them. In either event, now is the time to find out." Martin expressed his views before the house military affairs committee. It is conducting hearings hear-ings on his resolution to direct the president to seek a world agreement outlawing peacetime military training. In an apparent reply to President Presi-dent Truman's recent statement that his plan wouldn't work, Martin said: "I say you will not know how practical it is until you try it and the least it can do is to test the good faith of the world powers." The Republican leader said he was mentioning armament reduction reduc-tion "because it may now appear advisable to broaden the scope of my original resolution which referred to compulsory military service only." Ransom Promised Girl's Kidnaper By L. A. Parents LOS ANGELES, Feb. 27 (U.R) The kidnaper of six-year-old Ro-chelle Ro-chelle Gluskoter was promised today to-day that any ransom demand will be paid, if only he will return the child. "All we want is to get Rochelle back," Mrs. Merean Gluskoter said. "Friends and relatives have made funds available to meet any ransom demand." She promised not to call the police if the abductor contacted her. The parents' desperate appeal came as sheriff's deputies expressed expres-sed doubt of finding the friendly, brown-eyed girl alive.

KLEIN United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Feb. 27 Reconversion Re-conversion Chief John W. Snyder today urged congress to extend price controls another year to help "keep our economic house in order" until production begins catching up with demand. Snyder told the house banking committee that this did not mean that "we are determined on rigid and inflexible" price controls. He said government policy was sufficiently suf-ficiently elastic to permit price increases when they are shown to be necessary. At .the same time, he echoed the warning of stabilization Administrator Admin-istrator Chester Bowles that runaway run-away inflation is a very real threat. This is particularly true, he said, because inflation feeds upon itself. "The assumption that prices are ing up gives business an ir-: resistible motive to withhold fin ished goods from the market in expectation of higher prices and profits," he said. As a sesult, he said, people rush to buy what goods are available in the belief that prices are going go-ing up. resulting in buying pressure pres-sure which would "accentuate the already strong demand for goods and services."
