by giving your views on the question of just what you wish the Department to do, to stop doing or to correct
 There will be few possibly, who will say, Theres no sense in it. What good of it? It is just another way for the bureaucrats to find out how far they can safely go' These we hope will not endan- ger the true purpose of the Secretarys visit.
 We safely say that the Secretary is meeting us better than half way the question: Let's show him we can speak for ourselves. Let's prove to him that contrary to the many reports of Congressional Commit tees who have studed Alaska particularly from a misguided opinions that Alaska land of nobodies That Alaska not ready to rule herself. That AL askans had no ideas of what they wanted.
 The Secretary's Office plans to coordinate the ideas from all sections of the Territory into workable blue print for development of the counrys economies as AL askans wish it to be-
 In this challenge, the Secretary is giving true interpretation of the theory of public ofce that of be- ing public servant
 If you have "bran child' an idea plan for the good of the Territory, it is not only privilege and right, but duty to make them known to Secretary Krug. He needs the support of every Alaskan.

RADAR PHONE:
 NO POLES AND NO WIRES

4 METHOD OF TELEPHONING based on the prn- ciple of radar tested successfully recently in series of conversations between the suburb of Mont orency and Paris, according to the New York Herald Tribune.
 Its inventor say the method will not only do away with all poes wires and underground cables for land transmission but will also suppant the wireless sele phone as now known.
 Transmission is produced by the micro-wave pulses of radar and the inventors who perfected the method in secret during the German occupation of France say their equipment is sufficiently advanced to send and receive 150 miles.
 The recent test vast between stations only six miles apart but listeners including Postmaster General Jean Le Tourneau said transmission was clearer than by ordinary telephone.
 Plans under way to set up installations at in- creasngy greater distances. One test that planned for the future will be between Corsica and South ern France.

SECRETARY KRUC'S VISIT


 for greater Territorial development
 Cooperation should be the keynote for all discus sons held with the Secretary matters regarding any and all problems for economic development Ii sit back and allow the Secretary of the Interior to fly through our Territory without his being informed of the needs and desires of the population we shall in the of unsatisfactory reports of the tour and in all future actions of the Department we shall have to blame but ourselves We the people Ot the Territory are the of information which the Sec retary desrous of tapping, the information he needs in order to run the territory which IS bOSS and for which he wishes to make the most progress in his jurisdiction. He has the future of Alaska at heart.
 Although, in the past, we have offered some con- constructive criticism of the Interior Department op eraons regarding Alaska, there has been altogether too much just plain criticism
 It is time should take hand in government and make it a helping hand, with helpful suggestions
 If we are to be ruled from Washington, let's get in few plugs for ourselves while there is chance. The Secretary of the Interior Department has let it be known throughout the Territory that he is out to get the opinions of all the various unS organizations and individuals who if they only Will help Alaska by telling Secretary Krug, and his party of Department heads, just what is wrong with the administration of Alaskan policy, or what to do in the case Of remedy
 Krug himself, has suggested that Alaskans make known their wishes to how they would like the De- partment to to act with reference to the economic sit uaton for future Alaska It that in that light there is something right at hand do. When Krug arrives in Nome for the public meetings, can express our opinions reely ener With the secretary himself to any of the Department heads who pany him the tour.
 The date set for the meetings in Nome is August 14th in the afternoon Nine days left to before that time in which to prepare any and all data which wish to present for the bettering of conditions which the Interior Department has control, and that is most everything.
 If the intentions of the Secretary are honorable and have every reason to believe they are, do much to help in the advancement of the Terrtor within the next few years through cooperation with his wishes for Alaskan ideas of what they think is right and just policy for the Department to follow
 Alaskans have had much to complain about in past efforts of the Office to abuse rather than help the Territorys economic development.
 Now the Secretary has asked Alaskans to tell him how to run the business. In other words we in the chair temporarily to lend guiding hand to those who will have to live here when gone. Is that going to be too much effort part? Are we going to huff chance perhaps only chance to have say in what kind of development the Depart ment will set into motion?

interfere in primaries. He also
denied that he had promised PAC
cooperation in this endeavor,
which contradicts statement by
one PAC spokesman.
Brooding Long Time.
Mr.. Truman has been brooding
a long time on the Slaughter. situa-
ton. He is known to have broached
the matter bluntly to Jim Pender-
CAST, heir to the old machine which
produced Mr.. Truman. Mr.. Pender-
CAST said he thought Mr.. Slaughter
was all right and, anyway, he be-
longed to the other faction in
Kansas City politics which is
headed by Frank Shannon. He sug-
gested Mr.. Truman talk to Mr..
Shannon. Mr.. Truman said that
wouldn't do any good and Mr..
Pendergast agreed. There the mat
ter apparently rested.
Mr.. Slaughter asserts his organi-
zation support is in order. He also
has behind him the powerful Kan
sas City Star.
Two candidates have entered the
race against him but of their own
motion, the most important being
Jerome Walsh, son of the late famed
labor lawyer, who has recently
served as OPA enforcement officer
in Kansas City. PAC says it ex-
poets to support Mr.. Walsh and he
is in New York this week, presum-
ably arranging it.

Truman Believed Stymied in Nov
To Purge Slaughter From House

President.
is going to have to be operation
this lone purge. The administra-
ton certainly wants to be rid of
Mr.. Slaughter. They put him on
the powerful Rules Committee in
his first term-an unprecedented
favor-and they feel betrayed by his
unrelenting conservatism.
Irony of Situation.
But the fact is, as Mr.. Roosevelt
learned the hard way, you can't run
local contests from Washington.
The grass roots do not have head
aches because the President ate
something that disagreed with him,
even if he is President.
Nor do local machines run
mead of steam over congressional
seats. Washington has watched Mr..
Slaughter WELD his meat Ak and
knowing his real power takes an
interest in him. But city machines
are interested in the county Judge
whose actions directly touch their
pocketbooks.
Ironically, Mr.. Slaughter entered
politics by campaigning for Harry
Truman for county judge, the Presi-
dents first elective office. He also
campaigned for Mr.. Truman for
Senator, the strain on the family
tie having come principally during
the past year.
Mr.. Truman's problem obviously
is to find way to make his oppo-
sition count. He hardly dares risk
stubbing his toe in public, especial
ly on the home grounds.
