End For Truman,
Senators

President Truman's appea. "a
the American people to put the
heat on their congressman IN be
half Of his legislative program be-
believed TO be the first overture
OF its kind ever made 10 the people
by an American president.
Mr.. Truman in his request 10 the
nation practically asked the people
20 become a pressure group, and
demand that their congressman
force stalemated legislation out
into the open.
Although the late President
Roosevelt toppied many cherish
ed tradition and sent many a prec-
edent into the discard in his l.
years in Office, Il is recalled that
he never bluntly asked the people
10 pressure his wishes through
Congress
Some observers point out that

came TO such a device was his

men whom he charged with OBJ
strueting his legislative desires.
Mr. Trumans strategy assumes
special significance in view OF his
career. He was senator and upon
his succession TO the presidency,
he met frequently with his former
colleagues. Now he has struck a
telling blow az some OF these form.

gress that IL will be a battle 10

This has led 10 speculation in

THIS is AN IDEA OF how heavy

more than so per cent OF Presi.

mendations still 10 be acted upon:
The most immediate problem is

tion OF the armed forces.
Close behind is the Presidents
request for enactment OF a com
pulsory military training program.
House and Senate conferees also
must try 10 reach an agreement
on a so-called full employment
bill. This is likely TO prove adj
ficult task in view o differences
in the separate measures approved
by the two houses.
Enactment OF the legislation con-
trolling atomic energy is also nigh
on the agenda for the second ses-
sion OF the 18th Congress. Adher.
ents OF the Fair Employment Prac-
tice Committee meanwhile are
pressing for an early vote on leg
islation TO make it a permanent
body.
Other major subjects still TO be
acted upon include increased un-
compensation for job
less workers. a higher minimum
wage, housing. a single federal re-
search agency, new power auth

OF the Johnson act. increased sal
aries for congressman and judges,
disposal OF war-bui merchant
marine, stockpiling of strategic ma
terials, a new presidential sue
cession law, the ST. Lawrence sea
way, and freedom or statehood for
Puerto Rico.
THERE is EVERY PROSPECT
that Congress will pass bill again

NewsY Nofes From Skagway
ESPECIAL coRREspoNDENcE)

SKAC WAY, Alaska, Lee 7.-The Skagway Chamber of Commerce met Saturday evening, Nov. 30, at the Skagway Grill where the p members enjoyed one of Jimmy Patterson's excellent meals before starting the business session. Among the matters of importance which came up for discussion were the plans for the Days of '98 celebra- ton during the coming summer. Mayor Carroll proposed that men start growing then boards in Jan- uary, but was given absolutely no cooperation.
 The Chamber is unanimous in favoring taking Alaskan trade from Seattle as the members feel that the past few months have demon strated just what the real atti- tude toward the welfare of the Territory is. A wire from Acting Governor Lew Williams which sug- gested that local merchants place their orders through Portland, was read
 The Executive Board reported that it had met a few days earlier and taken care Of many matters which had gathered since the last meeting. The principal action was the resolution to ask Karl Hahn a former Skagway resident and ac- tive member of the Chamber while he lived here. to represent the town at Anchorage December 12, B and 14, when that organization will meet to consider various meth ods of henefiting he Territory There will also be an attempt to revive the Territorial Chamber of Commerce. The CAA will also hold a two day meeting and MT. Hahn has been asked to represent the town in that also.
 The lccal organization also went on record as favoring the resolu- tions as apply to Alaska, which were formulated by the Associated Board of Trade of Central B. c.
 The Jones Act was efficiently ex- plained by Mayor Carroll and was heartily discussed.

 duced the Gentleman from Texas f--Dr. Clarence Bailey. who arrived
 in town this week and will take
 over for Dr. Dahl while he is on vacation. Dr. Bailey responded
 with most interesting account ol his trip from Palestine, Texas, over 1 tta Alcan Highway to Whitehorse
 where he left his car.
 | His description of the trip, and
 particularly the Alcan Highway, was
 forceful and enthusiastic He found
 the roads in wonderful shape, eY- ,oept that it was inclined to be
 slippery. He stated than many of the truck drivers with whom he
 talked said that it was far more
 economical to drive over the high
 way in the winter than in the sum
 mer. The snow is well up and
 packed until it is like boulevard,
 the 35-mils limit can be kept with no trouble at all and the scenery is magnificent The only hazards
 he found were that in the ex- treme cold there was tendency Of the gas line to treeze and rest stations are too far apart.
 He found quite a eood tit O.. traffic during the day, fct noi at night. Dr. Bailey sait that in enc place there is no bridge, a crossing at Peace River about 20o yards wide, and being his first eX- perience at getting across, he did rot enjoy it as all, as tke water looked anything but peaceful to him. Dr. Bailey said he found both Canadian and A1lerican Gus toms officials helpful and court eous. but he also found that much information regarding travel regu- lations which have been received in the states, was false, and creates some embarrassing moments.
 Dr. Bailey had been over much of the United States before com ing here, but found travelling over the Alcan much more pleasant than over many of the paved roads there He followed 8 detour sign one night and became lost. Four miles later he arrived at a farm house where he was received with so much hos pitality that he was glad he had taken the wrong road. The hour was so late he spent the night with the family, and left the next morn Ing with a warm feeling for the people he had met.
 Dr. Bailey is young man re- gently discharged from the army, and hopes to make Alaska his home these next few years.
