Striking at Strikes

Did you ever stop to think that the
industrial warfare in our own coun-
try has been one of the most paralyz-
ing series of attempts to weaken tke
strength of the United States?
The loss to the striking labor
unions during six months Of this year
amounted to more than one billion
dollars in wages. Most of their
strikes were unnecessary and mex
cusable. The strikes in steel, mining,
electrical equipment, steamship, rail-
roads and automobiles have amount
ed to billions of dollars. There is no
way to estimate to what extent the
strikes were responsible for the whirl
wind rise of prices-say SO per cent.
There is no way of successfully dis
putting a statement from the Cham
ber of Commerce of the United States
which declared: "The hope of sound,
enduinrg prosperity is mirage un-
less we have an end to strikes which
rip production to piects and throttle
strikes" Think that over!

Statehood for Alaska
Favored by Krug
BY the Assccioied Press

SEATTLE, Aug. 22-After a TO-
day air tour of the territory, Secre-
tary of the Interior Krug has ex-
pressed the belief Alaska should be
granted statehood and that 1t
should be linked to the States by
both railroad and highway.
The Cabinet member told a press
conference after his arrival by air
last night: Il think Alaska should
comprise at least one State, and
perhaps two or three.
He said he considered the slow
movement of congressional ma
chinery, when not under the gun. -
as the main obstacle to an early
statehood status.
Mr.. Krug expressed a determine
ton to pursue course for maxi
mum development" of the Territory
and said: 1--WE won't get it if the
Government sits on all the land
He said the Interior Department
already had acted to release a vast
expanse in Western Alaska and
said the military still holds large
areas "hemming in Anchorage,
which it no longer needs but which
it will surrender hesitantly.
He said he would confer, on his
return to Washington, with the Sec
retaries of Agriculture and Com
merce to try to straighten out points
of overlapping jurisdiction. He said
a policy assuring land security
was needed.
