One of Alaskas veteran senators in speaking on a measure the other day, talked of dangerous new influences which have been lately creeping into Alaska He declared they are advocated by a group that subscribe to q school of thought which he does not ke-a school which is against all who have made money yet capital has been greatest producer and if properly regulated, will continue to be our greatest producer of wealth.
 Only few hours before, the Governor of Alaska had suggested that it may become necessary for the Territory to take over the fish traps and operate them eliminating private enterprise
 This, as it. is very dangerous statement, one which implies form of government alien and in direct contradiction to the government of the United States-call it socialism communism as you may. One senator labeled it socialism.
 We pointed out in editorial many weeks ago that believed that this danger did exist in moves that have been made eliminate private enterprise from the entire fishing industry of Alaska.
 The government would have more reason for taking over the fish traps than for taking all of the seine boats in Alaska and operating them since

equal economic opportunities for Negroes. Senator Bilbo of Missls- sipi was one of his most intolerant hecklers.
 Do you subscribe to that theory of government, the Mississippi demagogue asked, that private en- terprise and private business IS going to be regulated by some board or bureau in Washington
 Its the Congress, Senator, that decides that replied Williams.
 You better not disband your Army when this war is over be- cause you'll need it. shot back Senator Bilbo who has been wor- ried for fear Williams favors vio- lent change of government.
 (Note: Real fact is, of course that behind the fight against Will Hams is the Power Trust and also the big southern plantation owners Williams has spent much of his life fighting both and they have never forgotten it1

Spending or Economy?
(New York Times

(NeW GorK IlmeS)
 The Presidents recent budget message, the National City Bank points in it's current monthly letter, was less a budget message than it was a peace budget message. Perhaps the most significant feature of the budget figures, from the long-range point of view is the rapid growth of non-war costs total of such expenditures for 1946 is estimated at more than $13,000000000 which is twice as high as such expenditures just before entered the war, and five times high the average of the Nineteen Twenties. t-
 What we seem to be pointing toward is a level of postwar Federal expenditures that may easily reach $25 900 000 and this figure may prove too low if Government spending and subsidies are looked to as major reliance for reaching desired social objectives How are going to get the tax relief that needed to stimulate postwar enterprise? How going to get the budget under control?
 The bank puts forward the suggestion that in our thinking about postwar problems being influ- enced unduly by the memory of conditions in the Nineteen Thirties, when were constantly contend ing with unemployment and striving to build up purchasing power Today we may be understanding the force of nflatonary clements now accommodating. Potentiaties for great wave of spending lie in the huge extension of bank deposits and currencies since 1939 and in the pent-up demands for goods of almost every description for and industry
 Nevertheless, scarcely day passes without new announcements of postwar spending plans not only by the Federal but by local governments Alter de. taing of the latter, the bank finds that the conclusion of the war threatens to let loose the greatest concentrated spending in the history of States and municipalities The latter may discover that this spending badly timed that instead of bridging over
 period of depression it will only compete unneces sariy with private employment. The State and city spending plans nearly all depend moreover, upon the assumption of aid from the Federal Govern ment The Federal aid policy ought to be re-examined in the light of the debt loaded on the Federal Treasury and Of the vast improvement in the finances of States and municipalities
 The many State and Federal spending projects are usually put forward on the ground that they will make jobs for returning soldiers We must remind ourselves that they will also make taxes to be paid by those same soldiers and perhaps create an infla tionary in living costs with which these soldiers and their families will have to contend.

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 but do not conaper'
SATURDAY, MARCH F, ls4s


 Although this is not an important day in planetary direction there is sign that seems to promise stir ring news for the United Nations. Heart And Home
 True democracy will be more and more manifested in social relations. With foolish prejudices erased by war conditions and associations, there will be favorable adjustments in communities previously affected by ancient barriers of ancestry or wealth.
 Business Affairs
 Reconversion plans which had to be scrapped will prove valuable in many ways. The rebuilding of ruined cities and reestablishing of commercial centers will require such great production that again miracles will be performed by Yankee ingenuity and ability.
 National Issues
 How to punish enemy leaders of all ranks should not be discussed at present, according to the seers who declare that thus added dan- gers accrue to United Nations priS- oners. The stars indicate there has been too much talk and too little real sacrifice in the United States
 International Affairs
 While the end of the European war probably will bear the 1945 imprint, progress in the Pacific should not awaken confidence in quick defeat even though certain signs seem to presage collapse of the Japanese before many months have passed.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of un- expected benefits It is necessary to concentrate on serious aims and to avoid costly pleasures. taAA. Children born on this day prob ably will be individual to a degree that may become unfortunate Their distinct talents should be wisely directed.

COLD SHOULDERED CONGRESSMAN

Straight ced Representative "CurfeW Earl Wilson, Indiana Republican, is best known to the public for having urged a curfeW for Government girls and com- plaining because they take a few minutes out for coffee or soft drink. To his congressional collea- gues. however, he is best known as a hogger of the handball courts in the House gymnasium. They don't like him. The other day Wilson was delivering a long trade against the Veterans Administra- ton. The House was almost empty.
 Only Representative Jerry Voor- his of California sat at the Parlia- mentarian's desk correcting a speech he had delivered earlier. Suddenly Speaker sam Rayburn sent a page boy to Voorhis and asked him to step over to the Speakers alias so he could have a word with him.
 Jerry suggested Rayburn, why don't you correct your remarks out in the cloakroom? Then Wilson won't have anyone listening"
 Voorhis looked around and saw the House Chamber completely empty. He walked out to the cloak room Wilson ranted on for five or 10 minutes, talking to no one. Then Majority Whip Robert Ramspeck of Georgia came in to move for ad- iOurnment.

JUDGE" JED JOHNSON?

Representative Jed Johnson oi Oklahoma has received a letter from Attorney-G General Riddle mo- tifying him that he will be con- sidered for the post of Judge of the Customs Court, in New York, if he is interested in the post. Johnson, who would like the judge ship. but doesn't want to appear to be running away from any Con- gressional fights, wrote Riddle that he could not accept the judgeship before conferring with President Roosevelt. He added that he could not see the President yet, because he was too busy with appropria- tions hearings.
 A reporter from an Oklahoma paper picked up the story. But unfortunately, his editor cut out the last explanatory remark, and what appeared was simply that Johnson said he has been unable to confer with the President
 One of Johnson's proudest boasts is his long and close friendship with Franklin Roosevelt, so when he saw this story he hit the ceiling Cornering the innocent reporter in the House lobby, Jed clustered. "I didn't like that story of yours Frankly, I didn't like it at all Don't you know that I can see the President just as readily as anyone on Capitol Hill? To say I haven't been able to see him ere ates the wrong impression"
 Later the reporter commented: 1: T guess Johnson is just too busy a man to be able to find time to bother with Roosevelt"
