The Southern newspaper publishers the hand writing the wall long ago and promoted the new Lufkn mill It has been successful that it is being enlarged and another mill is being planned by the publishers elsewhere in the South. group of West Coast publishers recently decided protect their paper supply by acquiring a newsprnt mill.
 As matter of self preservation believe news paper publishers large and small should promote the development of their newsprint mills in the South and in Alaska We realize publishers themselves do not have the millions of dollars of capital required But capital be interested in financing such deve opments investments if publishers will contract for the entire mill production.

HARRY TRUMAN'S PRESS

Ii Harry Truman could place an ad in the papers, probably it would read something like this
 "Wanted-good press secretary; willing to work long hours; must be practicing newspaperman, not afraid to say no Low salary, but private car and plenty of prestige. Call national 1414 or write H. S. T., 1900 Pennsylvania Avenue, Wash ington, D. c"
 There are few weaker spots in the White House staff than Tru- mans press aides. Venerable Char lie Ross, the Presidents secretary, simply isn't filling the bill. Per sonally one of the finest gentle men in Washington, Ross is by na- ture an introvert; doesn't get around much, is a poor spot-neWS reporter and complete failure as press agent.
 NeWSmen who cover the White AlOuSS oOiiitIliilco dlt 5LllullleIy alarmed at Ross ineptitude. They claim he doesn't read the newspa- pers regularly, doesn't even keep up with the White House directives. Frequently White House newsmen have asked about stories which were on the front page of the morning paper, but Charlie shows he simply has not read the papers. ! By and large, the White House gang had no great love Tor Roose- velt's press secretary, Steve Early Steve was tough, excitable, and a veritable hell-on- wheels when he got mad.

 Ross, on the other hand, fre- quently knocks down stories that members of the administration float as trial balloons to help the President, sometimes finds himself embarrassed to find out that these trial ballons were accurate.

 At this point, Senator Neigh Ho Silver McCarran of Nevada came riding to the rescue.

Evidence of Secretary of the Interior Krug's recognition of the salmon industry's tremendous investment Alaska is shown by his recent state ment to the effect that if Alaska becomes a State he does favor turning control of the fisheries to Alaska.
 In this stand he is joined by the industry, itself and by industry workers belonging to Outside unions
